shopping in the USA

[jojo09]

Hello everyone!
I am a newbie at couponing,

I am going to the US in the next few weeks and I was wondering where to start to get american coupons and what to look for when I'm there ?
I would be looking for grocery as well clothes and pet deals..

thanks for your help!

Hi Johana,

www.target.com you can print out coupons that you can only use at Target. You can also go to www.coupons.com and select and print a bunch of coupons.

I would imagine that CVS and Walgreens would also have sections on their website where you can print coupons.

Goodluck!!!!!

I think smartsource.com and redplum.com have coupons you can print at home before you go. Most stores (incl. Target, Safeway, Albertsons, Walgreens, Fred Meyer) take a mfr and in store coupon together. HTH! You could also pop into a Starbucks or McDonalds and look for the Sunday paper, apparently they are loaded with coupons each week.

A great site for coupons in the US is couponmom.com I use this site all winter when I am down south. Also depending how long you will be there, every Sunday, the larger papers are filled with $100 to $250 in coupons. There are 3 inserts that rotate weeks depending where in the US you will be. The further south you go the more coupons will be in the paper (not sure why this is though). Most stores take printables there as long as they have a bar code. Hpe this helps

Subbing! Thanks everyone with your great suggestions! I've been courting the idea of going down but I'll be headed to Seattle at the end of August. It would be great to be coupon equipped by then!
