My friend Andrea has just written her first ebook, Focused Couponing. I was fortunate enough to get an advanced copy of the book and was impressed!
In Focused Couponing, Andrea lays out a clear and simple path for using coupons. Even if you live in a place that does not double coupons you will learn tips and strategies for saving money at the grocery store.
Currently the book is on sale for an introductory price of $9.99. You can use the coupon code 5OFF to save an additional $5 on your purchase.
Many couponing classes that don’t provide half the information given in this book charge twice this or more. The best thing about this ebook is that it is available for immediate download so you can start saving today. I’m sure you will save more than $5 (the cost of the book) on your first trip to the grocery store.

Snagged it–thanks for the heads up! I figure I can save the cost of the book in one shopping trip, right?
Using coupons don’t work if you’re avoiding processed foods. Almost all processed foods, including bread, has soy in it. We have a soy allergy in our family. I don’t buy anything processed. Mainly I buy meat, cheese, fruits, veggies, and the occasional canned tomatoes. I would really like to know how to save money at the grocery when buying things that don’t normally get coupons.
You might not be able to use coupons for food, but what about toiletries and cleaning products? I don’t buy much processed food either, but I always use coupons on cleaners.
Hi Penny, I’m not a big proponent of processed foods either. But like Toni mentions you can shop the sales and use coupons to stock up on hygiene items and cleaning products. Also, it’s great for pets or baby products. I also purchase organic items with coupons.
Yes, cleaners/paper products are a great place to save! But coupons definitely aren’t the only way to save money at the store–I don’t use the coupons for processed stuff either. I menu plan around what’s on sale, and that seems to be the best strategy for saving without coupons.
And check the reduced produce/dairy section (if there is one) as you shop–I’ve gotten organic yogurt, milk, and veggies for a steal.
And I’ve also found coupons for things like juice, cheese, cream cheese, butter (not marg.), sour cream, eggs, flour, baking powder, mustard and hot sauce. Stonyfield yogurt has some good coupons for their products on their website. I don’t save as much as if I were buying mostly processed stuff, but every little bit helps! (And a lot of times those “staple” coupons were printables–not as many of those come in the newspaper inserts. Keep your eyes peeled!)
Just figure out what works for you and your family, and try not to compare yourself to others who have different dietary needs. That’s easier said than done, though!
Hope this helps!
I run my house the same way we eat..almost nothing in a bag or box…but..maybe you can save on coffee or teabags, juices, water, occasional paper, plastic items..just think of it like every little bit adds up..I really do want to know how to getmeat, chicken etc little cheaper without sacrifising quality…umm no I cant start a farm..LOL…produce can be split with someone you know and go for a wholesale coop in your area…I dont do cans, period..ugh..yoguart is as close as I get to a round container…cleaners I urge you to diy google dearch because you can save so much and scent them to your needs with essential oils if you wish..basically clean clothes and dishes very very well…diy from sites like pinterest…newest hobby is how to reuse any and everything in my house in a DECENT way..But, enough ramble..I do understand what you are saying and still trying to figure out the coupon thing for people who dont want 100cans of shit in their pantry LOL…
My question is where do people even find coupons. I have signed up for one website but its the only one cause the rest want you to download a toolbar. Plus the all have the same exact coupons so its not helping any. Does anyone have any ideas? Also where we live the paper really doesn’t have much. I have tried going through the coupons at our ACS and it’s usually makeup, animal food, hair dye, things we don’t buy cause we only get things we need. I would really like to get into this whole couponing thing, but I find myself getting frustrated instead,
