Saving Money with Coupons
The following is a guest post by Outside the Box Mom:
In the first week of this series, we discussed goals when using coupons. Last week, we covered some common reasons why people don’t use coupons. I promised you results if you change one thing…your attitude!
Be Positive
“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. -Winston Churchill |
Having a positive attitude any time you try something new will take you a long way. You can beat yourself up that Betty down the street saves 90% on her grocery bill, only spends $20 a week, and gets in & out of the grocery store in 10 minutes. Believe that you can learn some new strategies and resolve to have a cheerful, positive attitude while using coupons. In the beginning, it may seem like a hassle, but with more and more experience, you will have fun and you will save money.
Be Creative
“Necessity is the mother of invention.” |
Every region has different stores and receives different coupons in their Sunday papers. Some printable coupons found online are only available to certain ZIP codes. Instead of waiting on a deal to fall in your lap, check prices and coupons available in your area, and make the best of them. Get rain checks, ask the store manager to order items for you, and trade or purchase coupons from other areas.
Be Persistent
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.” -Calvin Coolidge |
You may get to the store and they’re out of what you came to buy. You may get your Sunday’s paper and the latest HOT! coupon isn’t there. It’s okay. If you keep a positive, creative, persistent attitude, you will succeed. Learn more about couponing from deals blogs, use the coupons you do have available to you, and get more practice at shopping the stores in your area.
Whatever you do, don’t give up!
How’s your attitude about using coupons? This is an interactive series, which will feature answers to your questions. So, ask away!
