Don’t throw away your expired coupons…. military families stationed overseas can use coupons for up to six months after the expiration date. Are you stationed overseas and would like to receive expired coupons? Shoppers around the web want to support our troops by sending you their expired coupons. Email me at coupons4troops@comcast.net for all the details.

Exciting News! Check out the sale prices on every sale item for your commissary. The commissary website now has a feature that allows you to log in and view the savings aisle for your commissary. You have to enter your social security number, last name, and birthday (so I am assuming this is only available to people who have commissary privileges) but this is a great way to plan your coupons/deals before you get to the store! Just go to this page to log in.

Important Note! Watch the screen as your groceries are rung up. I have noticed several price mistakes on my last few trips to the commissary. Make sure you are getting the prices they advertise and the deals you deserve!
