Stocking up on food..

Hi guys. Ok, I've got all the body wash, soaps, shampoos etc stocked up, thanks to london drugs and learning the stacking thing or I would not have what I do. Now, how do I do it with food when most of the coupons are for toiletries?
Do you all just buy food items on sale? London drugs doesn't have much for food, and I can never find barely any good food coupons other then for stuff like sauces etc. Do you just stock up on flyer days? I could stack at LD on cereal and a few other food items (very basic items as not much food at mine) But I need to find the coupons first. What do you do? I'm still learning the ropes, only been doing it 4 weeks this friday lol. Thank you all in advance for advice :)

like you said london drugs only has a basic grocery section, i haven't stocked up on much food through there, though one th ing i have stocked is soup.. there are some great stacking coupons out at the moment for soup (chunky save 1WUB2, and 3 diff campbells save 1wub3 blue label coupons, LD carries campbell chunky soups all blue label and it's not uncommon to find them onsale 3 for 5 to PM or at LD itself) there are a number of knorr coupons out and LD carries a basic selection of knorr products (soups, i think even the sidekicks)

Thanks for the reply. I wish we could find and stack coupons for say ham lunchmeat etc at ld lol, now that would be sweet. Even different peanut butter coupons to stack there, but I have only seen 1 pb coupon :( Just trying to figure out how to get more food...can't eat deodorant and soap lol.

have you looked at saveon, safeway, iga, superstore for coupons? i go in just to look for coupons sometime!! its kinda fun!! you will come up with more then you expect...

and if you can find one coupon( manufacter) and one superstore coupon then you can usually use both... they ALWAYS have sales at rcss too!!

not sure if that helps at all but thats what i do!

You can always contact the manufacturers of the food items you and your family regularly use and see if they will send you some coupons, most will.

As for how I stock up on food it's mostly when things go on sale but I also shop south of the border. I have contacted some manufacturers and asked for US coupon and they have sent some to me. I have also been able to find some Brandsaver flyers at the McD's :)

LD is a great place to stock up on things like PP said Knorr, soup, cereal and granola bars. They also do have good sale prices on things like coconut milk (currently on for 99c) so that's a good time to stock up :)

You could also post a tradelist/wishlist and trade with other SCers :)
