How do you follow the deals? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

No our coupons are different than say florida or the east coast I get the fremont paper and the omaha paper and didn't get that coupon either. Best guess is that you can order that from coupon clippers, takes a few days but that's what i do if there is a coupon deal I have to have!

How do you get all those papers with the inserts??

Hi there! I live in Fremont and just moved here from Lincoln last August, I still go to Lincoln weekly though (friends/family)...so your stores are the same as my stores really. Super Target is GREAT! Combining their store coupons with manufacture coupons really adds up! I also LOVE walgreens!! I really don't stay away from anywhere. I price match all I can at walmart and then use my coupons, that seems easier than running all over. But CVS and Walgreens are great because of their rewards programs! You can message me more if you want a buddy LOL! My advice is organize your coupons well and get all the coupon policies to the stores you will visit. Becoming familiar with those is a MUST!

Welcome and have fun! You'll be stockpiling in no time

THank you so much! I definately will stay in touch, this is all newto me!!!

I'm in York and I go to Lincoln to do my shopping at CVS, HyVee, Target, and sometimes Walgreens (since York has a shorter ad).

I buy one of each and have a lady who saves hers and her parents' inserts for me, the sometimes my mom and hubby's grandparents give me theirs. My aunt in Colorado Springs also sends coupons to my grandma that we don't usually get in our papers.

Hi, another Papillion-ite here. I've been AFC member for a while but I haven't visited in a while. I need to start couponing again

[supermom0608]

I was born and raised in Kearney, but moved to Scottsbluff after gratuated in 05. i love AFC.

[mathew]

Hi, I'm from Council Bluffs and use both Iowa & Nebraska state deals on AFC. I'm also new to couponing and hope to learn alot from all of you seasoned vets! Thanks for everyone's help!

[sw150]

Hi Everyone!

I'm not a new member of AFC, but I've just started couponing again after taking a year off!! I live in Millard.

My question for you: I'm getting really great deals at Walgreens, but I can't seem to find a place that matches the coupons with ads for the grocery stores in Omaha. I usually just go through grocery ads myself, and then flip through all of my coupons to find match-ups. Is there a better way??? Would love to hear!

Thanks

I'm in a small town near Norfolk and Tri-Cities. Mostly shop in GI at WM and Hy-Vee, but will shop at other places if the price is right. Wish there was a place in GI that doubled coupons, but rumor is that there is not.

Happy to help if you need anything! Just ask!

[mathew]

I love this website,the site is full of helpful tips and the people on the forums are great! Thanks for everyone's help with this learning curve! I have noticed that the coupons in our local paper has not been very good the last two weeks,has anyone noticed the same thing? Can anyone also tell me why the stores in this area do not offer double coupons like most of the country does, is it an economic thing or are our local merchants just not interested in spending a little money to get people to their stores?
Thanks again,
Mathew

I am in Omaha, but work in Bellevue. Have couponed on and off over the years. Am working on becoming more organized and getting the best use out of my coupons without too much time organizing.

It's so hard to find a balance. When I started, I did a binder, but found that I spent waaaaaaay to much time organizing. I now just do a box file system and am much happier!

[bluwdrling]

I got all this for under $20 & saved over $50!
