At HEB they have them hanging near the products so I use that. I dont go out of my way to use a coupon though.

My store doesn't do them, but I do add coupons to my CVS card before I go. Honestly, I wish stores would just put something on sale and that be it. The whole having to have a card/account with them and do extra work to get the sale price is silly.

I think with Albertson's coupons, you have to add the item to your "cart" in the app and then use your phone number at checkout to get the sale price Just seems like overkill.

Yeah Kroger here is like that. You sign up and either swipe a card or give your number to get the discount. You do get gas discounts after you accumulate enough points.

My mom was the coupon queen when I was young. She would go through all the sales fliers, match on sale items with coupons she had and then hit the stores on double or triple coupon days. Didn’t matter if we like what she bought or not, if it was on sale and she had a double coupon for it, we were eating it. She could stretch a dollar like nobody’s business. The true art of home economics is a dying thing.

With that said, I rarely, if ever, use coupons any more.

No, I don’t use coupons. I’m terrible with them. The only time I ever made sure I used them was for diapers when the kids were babies.

But I’ll cut them, and leave them on the kitchen counter, or have them in my purse and forget to use them at the register.

Grocery store apps and Ibotta, but I’m not shopping at 400 stores just to get everything on sale/with a coupon. The time/money spent on gas going from one store to another offsets the savings, to me.

Only if I already plan on buying the particular item and the coupon appears in front of me (Kroger is good about this)
