Mini-tip: "Always Need" Coupon Lists!
Mini-tips are blog entries I didn't have time to flesh out into a whole article of advice on one subject. Instead, with the time that I have, I've written about one aspect of a subject that can be read in ~5 minutes or less.
Lots of the times I won't find relevant coupons that apply to the items I want to buy next time at the grocery store. Sometimes I run into ecoupons/coupons that may apply to basic things I need in the future but I spend so much time trying to figure out if I may need it in the future that I just toss the coupon. One way to prevent the above scenario from happening is to make a list of things that you will ALWAYS NEED in the future and stick it somewhere near your computer where you can easily find this list. My ALWAYS NEED list is as follows (and is still being edited every now and then): -tampons
-pads
-dish soap
-toothpaste
-toothbrush
-body soapThat way when I'm looking through coupons, it is a brainless activity to decide whether or not the coupon is relevant to future shopping. ---Hope that tip helped! A blogger I look up to when it comes to coupon hunting is Money Saving Mom. She has a tip on how to stretch your dollars online. Good read for new coupon cutters like me!
