I contacted Heinz and they sent me 2 .50/1 Heintz coupons. They are kind of weird looking, no pics on them, they look like a check. I asked them for coupons as I never see any for the ketchup.

Same thing as me, very odd

[TinkleTushies]

Some companies print them with your name too, like all Kraft brands, and pillabury/Betty Crocker ect

[couponfiend]

so annoyed, sent Hefty an email saying I use their slider bags and that I buy them for my elderly mom and that because they are so expensive could use coupons. They said they put coupons out in the newspapers and magazines so they dont send coupons to consumers. How cheap! I dont buy a good paper on sunday anymore. At $2.25 for a paper without a TV section I have cut back to the cheap paper. So no coupons!

Well I guess I will buy house brand or ziploc brand. They always are putting out coupons especially in magazines and I think even online!

Some of the companies that eMailed me back that they do not send out requested coupons - sent me stuff anyways

I got some nice goodies! I took pictures, have to put them on the computer =o)

[threefish]

That's awesome! I love mail days with good coupons. It makes me so happy!

The problem I've been running into is lack of companies to contact because of overlap of bigger companies. Like, I sent Boboli a compliment and they sent me qs. I later contacted Arnold bread and they couldn't send me coupons because they already sent Boboli coupons to me! That connection wasn't apparent to me. But I'm running into that a lot more often.

[MommaOf2Many]

Here are a few that I received:

Nivea I don't remember eMailing them, but the letter says I did


Aquafresh Each booklet has over $10 for all their products


Eggland's Best One 50¢ coupon and a booklet about everything you could possibly want to know about eggs!


Bush's

Update; Purina is awesome. I emailed and asked for coupons to try their Beneful prepared meals. I received a letter about 5 days later and got 2 free coupons.

They are great. You can contact them every 4-6 weeks for coupons.

[FruNor]

Thanks for all of the good info!

[Layla Stryker]

I have a list I update occasionally here

I think its set to private i dont know how to change it but I approve everyone.

I just sent out a huge new batch of emails so we will see!

[tagarza]

I emailed Heinz when I couldn't print their Classico coupons the other day, just got 2 coupons today. One for a free Classico sauce, one for .50/1

I emailed Parade about sugar that was hard as a rock on the bottom, at least an inch of it. They Fed Ex'ed me another bag and mailed me (2) $2 off any Parade products.

I tried to check out your list. It just takes me to "Welcome to Google Docs"
and wants me to sign in with an email and password. What am I doing wrong? TIA

[couponcandice]

Hi everyone! I'm just starting out couponing and it's been fun. Haven't gotten anything for free yet however today I just got a $50 receipt that I paid less then $20 for. Like I said I'm just a beginner but I was excited.
Anyway I have a question... When you email companies, what do you say? And how often do you contact them?
Thanks for all your help in advance. Candice

I bought a hot fudge sundae last weekend that had a fly in it at McDonald's. I emailed McDonald's, they emailed back and said they'd forwarded the info to the local store. Haven't heard a word.

Emailed Maybelline -- twice (the first time they blew me off) about a complaint I had about their 24hr lipstick. It has a color part and at the opposite end it has a topcoat part. Good lipstick and all -- but the topcoat lid kept falling off and getting messed up being tossed around in my purse. They finally sent me a $10 coupon for any of their New York products.

Emailed Velveeta after I had to toss out one of their slices of cheese because it was so mangled - they emailed and promised coupons.

Emailed Hostess and (nicely) told them that their new Strawberry Cupcakes are TERRIBLE. (OMG they're soooo bad people -- they taste like one of the ingredients is crayon, seriously.) They emailed and thanked me for the feedback and to expect "follow up correspondence" in the mail.

Emailed Purina and told them how much my puppy likes their Puppy Chow and they emailed and said thanks. I didn't directly ask for coupons -- so far nothing received from them but it's still early.

I sent Blue Bunny ice cream and got 6 $0.55 off 1 coupons. I also did beech-nut and got 10 $1/2 coupons. Those are the best I've ever gotten. I send emails every 6 months. I usually get coupons from each company I email with compliments. Some even tell you to email again in 6 months.

[couponcandice]

Is there a curtain email address I should look for when you're wanting to email a company or would it just in the contact us box??

Just the contact us box. There is usually an email link in there. In all my emails if it doesn't automatically ask for your address I just put it after my name at the end of the email. But most have you fill out a form. It's time consuming but really easy.

[couponmomma75904]

I have emailed so many companies so far its unbelievable. Frito lay sent me coupons for free products and I don't remember even contacting them and I have a huge list.

[candycane_76053]

So...I hate to sound lazy (but I am) Is there anywhere on the site that has links posted to contact companies? TIA

[couponmomma75904]

I don't remember where the post is but I downloaded a Excel worksheet that has direct links on it. I can try to see if I can post it when I get on the computer
