Questions

I'll be trying to make things as easy to understand as I can, but I thought I would answer some basic questions here. If you have any other questions, just let me know and I'll do my best to answer them!

I don't understand how to read the deals listed.

In each listing, I try to list the item on sale and the sale price. Followed by any coupons available in the color Red (for ease of seeing), and ending with the Final price with coupons. I will break this down to the lowest number of items you can by and at what price. For instance, if you have a coupon for $1 off 1 item, I'll list it as 1 for $XX. If the coupon or sale require you buy 2 or more, I'll list it as 2 for $X, 3 for $X, etc.

Coupon listings vary, but most will be Manufacturer's coupons that are acquired in the Sunday paper. The listing will include the deal, the expiration date in parenthesis, and where the coupon was found. In the Sunday paper there are 2 regular sets of coupons that come out...Smart Source (denoted with an SS) and Valassis (denoted with a V), which is now called Red Plum.

Some coupons are online and must be printed out, and I'll provide a link. Some coupon sites require you install a program to print the coupons (i.e. Bricks), and sometimes the links are specific to an internet browser. If you go to the site and install the program and are still having trouble printing the coupon, this forum topic might be helpful. If you are still having trouble, just send me a message and let me know which browser you are using and I'll try to help.

Below is an example of a deal listing:

Shedds Spread Country Crock @ 2 for $4
Shedds Spread Country Crock Calcium Plus Vitamin D Spread, any .50 (4/12/09) V 1/18/09
Shedds Spread Country Crock Spread, any .25 (4-12-09) V 1/18/09
.55/1 CC Calcium + Vitamin D printable
Final Price Varies: $1 - $1.50 each

Why don't all items have a final price?

I do my best to gather final prices for all items, but some deals include items of varying prices, or you can use different coupons. As I don't have time to add up all possible scenarios, I will not place final prices on items like that. Also, sometimes a deal is for a percentage off an item, in which case, I might not know the sale price of the item.

I have a coupon you don't have listed.

It is quite possible that I have missed a few coupons. If you have a common coupon that I have missed, just let me know and I will add it.
