I have a question about internet printable coupons. I heard you can only print out 2 coupons from a computer, but if you have more computers at home you can use those computers too..But I also read somewhere to keep printing until you have reached your limit, is that true?..I did notice that sometimes it lets you print more then just 2 per computer and when you reach your limit it tells you so and does not allow you to print anymore. ( Coupons.com and Redplum) Also I have had it happen where the coupon wont scan but the cashier manualy accepts it. But not sure if it's one of those EXTRA coupons not the 2 allowed printables. I mean can one get in trouble by this? by sneaking in say 3 printable coupons instead of only 2?

There are many internet printables that become available at spontaneous times that have limited prints. I hit the back button and will usually print the number of times allowed if its a really good coupon! Sometimes the limit is more than the average 2 prints and thats great! One time I was even able to print 10 of a particular coupon!

Each coupon should have a unique number on it (most times) and this helps validate its legitimacy. Some coupons do beep, even paper coupons available. I went to walgreens on saturday and bought some neutrogena face cream for a christmas present and asked if they had any coupons I could use (ask at cosmetics) they just happened to have a $1.00 walgreens coupon for neutrogena products including face wash and also stated or any other nivea product. However the coupon beeped and said no item found....sometimes the walgreens specific coupons don't always get entered into the system. She has to manually enter it but it was a valid coupon. Coupons will beep for different reasons, just be clear as to what the coupon states, use the coupon as is worded and don't go by just the picture.

Enjoy getting multiple coupon prints when the manufacturers allow this opportunity! Use with confidence!

thank you very much..I'm totaly new to this couponing thing, but how awsome. I truly took coupons for granted. I found out about this website from watching your videos on youtube..I love how you show shopping examples..I know you are a busy mom, but would love it if there were more examples of the lets say harder shopping hauls. Being new to this couponing lifestyle still gets me confused on some transactions...

It can be confusing at first. There are many people here very willing to help you along the way

I am defiantly working on more videos. It has been very busy time of year and with me in the nursing program full time now its being an adjustment. I am getting a schedule together so I can even have videos on a more regular basis and currently have been working hard on the new MPS theme to help make things a lot easier for those new to couponing

PS.... to MyPriceSavings nat411! We are so glad to have you here

I can understand you being so busy. Im not working at the moment, but I stay at home with my 3 kids while my hubby puts in double time for the both of us..Thank you so much for thinking up such a wonderfull website. I guess I learn better from watching videos then reading the examples I guess.lol..I would love to see begginer videos with examples..doesnt even have to be at a store, just by knowing what coupons to stack for the best savings..I guess I will eventualy get it..Like today I went to Ride Aide for the 2/$5 boxes of cereal..I had a $2.00 UP coupon and a $1.00 off 2, and a $.55 off one...I walked out paying $2.10 for 2 boxes of cereal..which I thought was a deal anyways, but when I was driving home I was like Hmmm? that was $3.55 in coupons, so wouldnt $5.00-$3.55 be $1.45? not sure what happened there. Dont think taxes on that should of been $.65 but was happy about the $2.00 UP they gave me..so basicaly free cereal no?

it does take sometime to learn all the tricks of the trade, i have been couponing for 2 1/2 years and i still have lots of questions, i still make newbie mistakes and i still kick myself for missing a good deal.

If we could do it all ourselves, we wouldnt need a support group...i mean, web site such as this. We were all where you are now, please ask as many questions as you possibly can.

have a Merry Christmas!
