Couponing

[sylvar]

Any hints from friends? So far I've learned:

• Publix and Kroger stores around here will double coupons with a face value of 50¢ or less.
• If you have a buy one, get one free (BOGO) deal, you can use coupons on each one -- at Publix, I think.
• Some stores will accept competitors' coupons also.
• Be creative.  If you have some hangtag $1-off-seafood coupons, and you can find 10-for-$10 shrimp skewers, ask the fishmonger politely to package them separately.  If s/he's willing, you've got some free shrimp.
• Glossary for coupon forums:
  
  • peelie: coupon you can peel off the package
  • blinkie: coupon dispensed by a blinking gadget
  • Qs: coupons
  • stack: two deals or coupons stack if you're permitted to use both on the same item
• You can get cellphone-based coupons from cellfire.com and other sites, and often they stack with physical coupons.

Kroger in Texas did double coupons and even some triple when I lived in Texas...it rocked. Publix in Florida accepts competitor coupons so they might in Georgia too.
