Wow how the coupon game has changed

[mart0308]

I started couponing about 5 years ago. I couponed for a couple of years then stopped and just got back into it. I did 2 trips so far and I'm really excited I saved 83% and 58%. I started doing this excel spreadsheet. The cash back apps really changed the couponing game.

Impressive mart0308. I have been having a lot of fun couponing lately too. I was apprehensive about using printable coupons but since I joined smartcanucks this year, I started using smartsource, websaver, etc. and signed up for rebate apps.
It is fun to get things free or nearly free.

Awesome mart0308, love the spread sheet.

This is amazing!! I'm in the same situation, used to coupon a few years back. Stopped for a few years but now I'm back at it! LOVING THESE CASHBACK APPS but I'm havin trouble finding much for mail out coupons anymore Am I missing something?? The game has changed quite a bit since the last time I was couponing

[ashokia]

I really love this spreadsheet! I haven't been doing very much couponing lately. After we bought our house I started working more hours to make ends meet and just didn't have time. This really puts into perspective how much you are saving! Did you download this template or make it yourself?
