They are also more convenient and make it easier to find coupons for items that you regularly buy. Just follow these easy instructions for using printable coupons, and you will see a noticeable decrease in your weekly shopping bill.

Tips
Nearly all retailers accept legitimate printable coupons, as long as they scan properly and don’t appear to be copies or altered in some way. If a store won’t take your coupon, ask the checker to scan your coupon. Printable coupons have bar codes that scan just like the coupons that come in the newspaper. If this doesn’t convince the checker, speak to the store manager and refer him or her to the Retailer Resources website that is printed on most coupons and contact the store’s corporate headquarters. Sometimes local stores are not aware of their corporate policy to accept printable coupons.
Consider having an alternate email address for when you sign up for coupons. Otherwise, you may find yourself inundated with junk mail. You can also create filters and set aside a folder for the companies that send you email.
