Increase the spending power of your dollars with coupons

   This is a great way to stretch our dollar at the grocery store. Some stores allow us to use store coupons and manufacturers' coupons on the same item- a practice called stacking- take advantage of this when you can. There are a few stores, like Bed Bath and Beyond, that take expired coupons so it's worth asking. A fairly new practice is for stores to issue a specific dollar off with minimum purchase, like $10 off $50 minimum purchase. Try not to spend more than the minimum amount. The store hopes you will, which is why they switched to these coupons instead of 20% entire purchase coupons. Finwiz.
