I've been asked how people can get MORE coupons.

One issue that has come up, is that so many grocers are refusing to accept internet printed/downloaded coupons. There has been fraud and abuse. I've spoken with the VPs at Boodle, Coupons Inc, etc., and they are negotiating.

Until then, here is a tip. For coupons which go through the "bricks" center, some manufacturers pay the incentive to allow you to request the coupons by mail. Basically it's a "trouble with printing click here to receive by mail" link, but not always easy to access. I've posted those links when I find them.

If you haven't used the mailed coupons before, you should know that they are EXACTLY the same coupon, same dollar value, etc. However, two benefits. ONE, they are printed on veri-fi paper, which is a heavy gray paper with logos on the back, and it's able to be autheticated similar to treasury bucks; scratch the back of the paper with a coin and logos appear. Because of this, MOST GROCERS WILL ACCEPT THEM as manufacturer coupons without question.

SECOND, they tend to have longer expiration dates, usually months instead of weeks.

So, if you can't use internet coupons, the "request by mail link" may be a great option for you.
