    Hello CW - I'd quote bit I've not figured that out on my phone yet !! With BIS and SSM do the coupons reset after a certain length of time or is a print once and your done thingy? After all this binder talk I might need one!! I use a paperchase journal for mine there are loads of wallets and there is plenty of paper for lists etc although Im outgrowing it! One non couponing tip for people with young ones - morrisons own brand nappies (3 packs for 10) are identical to buggies but without Winnie pooh on them - I wish I'd known with my first!!


    Hi Brookdale

    Unfortunately most coupons only let you print them once or twice depending on the site. However there are ways round this. :cool:

    Some of us have more than one computer, some use works computers or friends computers. You need to make sure you use a different email address if you try and print the coupon on a different computer as the site would check you haven't had a coupon before.

    Some of us use not only different email address, different addresses (maybe a relatives), we all have "extra" family members and claim coupons or freebies in their names. These extra family members, are cats, dogs, numerous babies or toddlers.

    I think you can more or less guarantee that every one on this is pregnant (or might have recently given birth) as we all wanted the free Huggies boxes from Asda. Men included.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    We all have lots and lots of kittens to get the virtually free whiskas cat food.

    There are lots of ways to maximise coupon use, so stick with the thread and save a fortune.

    The number of freebies I have had is amazing. During the last year alone, we have had free Anchor cream, free Doritos dips and crisps. Free Pringles, free Dove mens and womens deoderants, free Dairylea cheese, free jars of honey, free Dettol wipes, free finish quantumatic, free dog food and free Fairy fabric conditioner, free Bold and free Ariel laundry gel free Sharwoods sauces. The list is endless and you will usually find out about freebies on this thread.:T:T:T


    I used to have my coupons in a small file thingy with lots of compartments, but I found it too bulky to take out.

    I now have 4 clear plastic folders (the envelope type with a press stud to fasten it). I have one for Tesco, one for Asda and one for Sainsburys. All store specific coupons go in the relevent folder. I then have one folder for all nss (non store specific) coupons.

    Makes it easier as I only need to take out the folders I need depending where I am shopping.

    So enjoy sending for as many freebies as you can, some come with coupons too, and as Tesco say "every little helps"

  • Oh! I am excited!:j

    I think I have found my first real BIG deal to share with you guys (though probably not! and forgive me if this is common knowledge):j

    I went to ASDA today to get my Huggies Newborn starter kit (coupon on front page, sign up to ASDA baby club)

    The kits are reduced from £5 to £3, but the coupon is still going through at £5. So £2 of FREE MONEY!:money:

    So I got a £15.43 shop down to £1.49 (and only cos I bunged some non couponed items in there to hide that I was getting £2 off my shopping! Well I had 3 to use so that was £6 off me shopping!)

    So - is this a new thing? Or is this an ongoing offer I have missed?:A
    I miss using my infinite coupons at Tesco!
    2010 was the worst year ever :(
    But 2011 so far has been a lot of fun! :j

    Its great to see you back CouponWoman and thank you for all the help you have given me.

    I just had to share this , I went to Asdas this afternoon and they had tons of reduced items !! Even bread for 5p, pies for 10p, cookies and doughnuts for 1p a bag !! My hubby really enjoyed himself he was so excited as he went out wombling with me , but he picks up anything, including wet tissues lol but at least he enjoyed himself and was so pleased with his "wombles " lol lol it is good as the cleaner came over last week and he asked what we were doing , I said , my hubby just enjoys coming over and doing your job lol they seem to leave me alone now lol I only found 1 womble thou which was any good , but never know, it could be a winner for me !!

    I have just looked in my fridge, at my 20 free rustlers !!!

    Thanks to everybody on this thread who has helped me out so much during this last 2 months, and my hubby has never looked so happy as he happily wombles his time lol I think it makes him feel usefull.

    I am still looking out for coupons, but I dont seem to find them , sorry.
  • i just found a really good website if any ones interested its www.couponizer.com
    i am thinking of ordering one as all my coupons are pilling up and i will have somewhere to put them my mother in law has just got one and she said it was really good and it has loads of different sections for coupon etc its a american site but she recieved hers the other day so am thinking of ordering one :)

    This has been happening since the start of the baby event. Though in my store they have gone back up to £5 :( so no free money.

    Do your boxes have £5 coupons in them. The coupons are on the inside of the outer layer of cardboard, there's £2 off Huggies newborn, £2 off swimmers and a £1 off pure huggies baby wipes. If they do then use the huggies baby wipes asap as they are £1 in asda at the moment and that makes them free. :T:T:T I love freebies, don't you.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    we are all such like minded souls - I have an excel s.s worked out too, thanks to DD2 and I keep a notebook of all email addresses and wombled finds together with their dates so that I don't re-use one before the next calendar month.

    I have a box with sections for coupons but I have recently started a binder like on "extreme couponning" as it was so "at a glance" that I considered it ultimately time saving.

    I like to open it sometimes and just look at it. I also like to go in my shed and stand & admire my stash. When Supersavvyme recently had that influx of new coupons I nearly wet myself with joy!

    Have had such a terribly sad couple of years and coupon/offer combining and the elation from a good wombled find is helping me heal.

    If that makes me a saddo or a loser too, then I am proud!

    Love and happy couponing vibes to all my coupon enthusiastic invisible friends. Hugs to all who need them and special thoughts for Dawnie with your move and Wendy.

    How are you Byatt, my friend?

    Not been thwarted yet with a wet day and wombling. I found one this morning, picked it off the car park carefully and it lay drying on the vents on the dashboard. Can check tomorrow and see if my determination pays off.

    Would you like to go wombling together :j We could meet half way in Tescos or Asda :rotfl:

    If anybody is interested at the moment in our Asda they have the Baby Box reduced to £5 from £20, it is a Johnsons one, white hard shelled box filled with baby goodies. I presume other Asdas will have this in aswell.
