Canuck Looking for US Coupons

Hi, I know this forum is titled Canadian Coupons; I just didn't know where to post this to.

Hubby and I are going to Buffalo in mid-November and to save money, we plan on buying groceries and making most of our meals in our hotel room. Except for, of course, that one Olive Garden night.....mmmm!

I need basics such as buns, cheese, milk, coffee, tea, that sort of thing.

In your opinions, what are the best grocery stores to hit and where can I stock up on coupons beforehand. Also, I have an old Tops card from two years ago. Would it still be valid or do they have a new program?

Any help would be SO appreciated. We just got married last month and are on a VERY tight entertainment budget.

Thank you!

websites like: hip2save.com, coupons.com, krazycouponlady.com are really good.

Most of the big box grocery stores offer loyalty cards at their customer service desk (free).
This will give you instant discounts.

coupons.com is great for printables. krazy coupon lady for matchups and if you are planning on shopping at drugstores you really need to understand how the work... there is a whole system..you can save a lot but you have to know what you are doing. my local shoppers sells the detroit free press so i can get the sunday coupon inserts. (which are awesome). if you are going to target print out target coupons and check out a website called totally target. happy shopping
