Print a Coupon from AFC’s Coupon Database

Instructions:

The Coupon Database provides links to printable coupons available through manufacturer websites, Facebook pages, Bricks links, Coupons.com, SmartSource.com, RedPlum.com, and any other legitimate internet printable coupon source.

The Coupon Database can be found HERE: Grocery Coupons- A Full Cup - Coupons or you can find it by going to “Coupons” in the blue navigation bar, scrolling down to Coupon Database, and clicking it.



To locate only printable cou you can choose "Printable Coupons."



Or at the coupon database change the “Coupon Type” to "Printable" and click submit.



To find a coupon that interests you use the search tools. Type a keyword into the description then hit submit to find what you are looking for. You can also use the filters to find coupons for certain stores or within categories.



To Print: First click on the coupon in the list. You will see a new window. Click on the coupon in that window and you will be taken to the printable coupon.



This Tilex coupon is listed on Coupons.com so the link takes you to Coupons.com. There you will need to scroll through the list and find the Tilex coupon.



Here it is on Page 2. Then click on the "Clip" section to select your coupon.



You can also select other coupons that interest you on Coupons.com the same way.

Then click "Print" to print your selected "Clipped" coupons.



You will see a "Printing" message while your coupon(s) are sent to your printer. Please make sure your printer is turned on and plugged into your computer.



You will see this page after your coupons have been sent to your printer.



And your printable coupon (Tilex in this example) looks like this (but without the slashes through the barcode, I did that to the photo for security reasons).



Viola! Your coupon is ready to save you money at the store.

Have fun printing coupons!

Tip: If your printable coupon link does not work (the coupon is no longer available, expired, etc.) please feel free to report the coupon (hint... or wait until tomorrow when it will count as your challenge task!). We do our best to keep the database up to date, but we need your help to keep track of the huge amount of coupons out there.

Go to the Coupon Database to look for a coupon. We'll use a printable coupon in this example. You locate the chips coupon you want and follow the link.



You are taken to Coupons.com and you look for the Wise Potato Chips coupon. You look carefully through the entire coupon list.



But you can't find it anywhere. It's time to report it.

for your help!

Note: Some coupons are listed in the Coupon Database as "No prints left" next to the coupon title. These do not need reported, they remain in the database as an information resource until the coupon is expired and removed. However, if you find a coupon that no longer has prints available and does not have this note, please DO report it. Thanks!

Scroll down to the bottom of AFullCup.com (any page, forum, or thread you may be on is fine, it'll be there way at the bottom). Notice "Acronyms and Terms Used Here" and click on it.



It will take you to the list of acronyms and terms commonly used on AFullCup.



Feel free to refer to this handy list anytime! You can easily find it at the bottom of AFullCup.com no matter where you are in the wesbite.
