Holiday Coupons Galore

Okay, for the 80% of you that haven’t finished your Christmas shopping yet: Use your coupons.

I know, I usually throw away all the circulars and other junk mail. This time of year, if you are like me, you spend a good deal more money than the rest of the year. This time of year also sees a good deal of promotions from retailers. Use these offers to your advantage.

Here is just a sampling of offers I’ve received in the past two weeks:
- Best Buy 10% off and 12% off coupons.
- Target $10 off purchases of $100 or more.
- CVS $5 of purchases of $20 or more.
- Linens and Things $10 of a purchase of $50 or more.

I have to say that I’ve blown more than one offer by being overly stressed about shopping this year.

Steps
1) Read junk mail
2) Remove valuable coupons
3) Buy things you need that you have coupons for
4) Use coupon

I’ve missed step 4 a few times and while I had the coupon in the car not remembering it until I left didn’t save me any money.

Better luck with your coupons!
