USA Shopping Brag UPDATED with links/tips
We just came home from a trip to the USA. Planning ahead and printing coupons online, we saved just shy of US$250 for a 4 day trip. We had Kohl's coupons, Target coupons, hotel coupons, free pizza & meal discount coupons, manufacturer coupons, etc. I am very excited. :cheesygrin:
Here are the places I got my coupons from:
Target coupons: http://coupons.target.com/#?lnk=Glob...tc=263580|null
Kohl's promos: http://www.kohls.com/ Scroll down to bottom, click on sign up for sales alerts. They will email you the coupons to print. It varies, but this trip I had an additional 20% off entire purchase coupon, which saved me $50. Last time I had a buy-more-save-more one and got 30% off entire purchase.
Perkin's promos: Kid's eat free on Tuesdays and Saturdays 4 pm to 9 pm. Sign up for email promos, I just got a BOGO entrees. http://prkmc.fbmta.com/members/Updat...nputSource=web
Hotel coupons: I filled out a customer satisfaction survey and got a coupon for $50 off room rates. Various hotels have different promos, so check it out before you go. Also, you can get discounts if you have airmiles and if you have a CAA card. You just have to ask. Also we weren't happy with our room (we got moved from our original booking because of a wedding), so I complained and got a free pizza coupon. So, if you aren't happy, tell them...most will either take money off your room, or give some other compensation.

TIPS:
- If you are asked to put in a zip code...use your hotel's zip code.
- Look to see when the coupons come out in the papers...if it is close to your arrival date, call ahead and have your hotel save you that paper.
