How to find free PRINTABLE manufacturer's grocery food coupons

Maybe new coupon rules were going to happen anyway, but there's no denying that the TLC show "Extreme Couponing" has encouraged stores to at least clarify their coupon rules.

What I'm seeing lately is stores only allowing 1 Internet printed coupon per product per transaction. So, if you want to get multiples of an item and you have a printed coupon, you'll have to make at least 2 trips.

At some stores, it might be okay to have 2 duplicate looking printable coupons, as long as the coupons' bar codes start with a different number on each.

So, it will pay to ask at the store you frequent before you load up the cart, to make sure you have an understanding of how their coupon policy works in relation to Internet printed coupons....and if you get permission to use what you have, make note of the customer service person's name, so you can name-drop if and when you have an issue with using your coupons at checkout.

Good luck!

Go to coupon websites at the beginning of each month, because that's when the manufacturers release them. Return here for the links to the sites to print again at the end of the month (because the coupons are reset with each month)

If you really like a coupon, print it twice. Usually 2x is the limit, but you can try to see how many times you can print it.

If there's a product you buy often, it's worth a visit to the company's website. Sometimes they are easy to print from the site, but sometimes you need to register in order to have access to coupons. Also visit your favorite grocery and drug store websites. Sometimes you will find coupons there.

Many manufacturers now offer their coupons "paperless." You can upload the coupons you want to your shopper's card. This is really great, because you can also use manufacturer's paper coupons in conjunction with the paperless coupons (they deduct at the end of your transaction automatically)

Keep your home-printed coupons dry! Most home printer inks are not waterproof.

On the 30th or 31st of each month, revisit these sites to make sure you have printed all the coupons you need, as the sites generally take off old coupons and put up new coupons at the beginning of each month.
