Step 4: Matching Coupons To Sales

OK,  you know where to find coupons and how to organize them.  So how do you match your coupons to the sales?  Well that is easy!

I use the following website CouponTom.   Follow the below steps.

1. Search the name of the product or the description example:  Purina or dog food
2. You will get a list of where to find the item you are searching
3. The first column is Location: which is the date and the source where the coupon was issued example: 05/01 S2 (May 1st Smart Source insert #2)
4. The second column is the Description: A brief description of what the coupon is for (Purina Dog Chow or Puppy Chow on ONE bag, 4.4 lb or larger)
5. The Third column is Discount: The face value of the coupon ($1.50)

Putting the steps all together

1. Review your favorite blog for the best deals!
2. Take the stores ad and do a coupon search, using CouponTom for the item(s) that you are interested in purchasing and note the information either on the ad or on a pad of paper.
3. Make your list
4. Clip your coupons
