How to "Stack" Coupons

Coupon Stacking is when you use more than one coupon for the same item. Only select stores will allow you to do this, so it is best to call your store and ask first, before you attempt it.

Requirements:
- Coupons that you are stacking MUST be for the same item. Size, brand, type etc.
- Coupons must have different coupon codes/bar codes in order to make them "different" from one another
- To get coupons that are different, but for the same item they must be from different sources. I.e. Magazines, newspapers, inserts, peelies, internet printed
- If the coupons states: "Strictly Prohibited"...you cannot stack them. These coupons (for now) are only on P&G that I have seen.
- Some stores will NOT allow you to stack coupons that state "Not valid with any other coupon offer"...check your store policy
- all coupons must be valid in Canada & not expired

Organizing your stacked coupons for a shopping trip:

- I will pull out a seperate binder, and put all the coupons I can stack in it.
- Then I will make my list. Make columns for what you are buying, quantity, shelf price, total coupon value you have to use, then a Total of what you actually expect to spend (before taxes)
- I divide my coupons into categories such as "Laundry", "Cleaning supplies", "Hygene", "Food" etc.
- When at the check-out, some stores would like you to place each set of stacked coupons with each item as it goes through.
- have your store coupon policy with you, and have a chat with customer service about their policy BEFORE you shop! Policys can change at any given moment, the policy that you may have is NO GUARANTEE.

Coupons to Stack:
- You can stack B1G1 with dollars off of one of them
- (1) "Save $2 wub2" with (2 or more) $1 wub1 coupons
- (2 or more)dollars off one product with different bar codes
- "save $5 when you buy 3 "brand" products, with dollars off
- There are really so many more combinations, just really look carefully at what your coupon says. For example, Buy ANY 3 GILLETTE PRODUCT: "ANY" can be sample/travel sizes, GILLETTE PRODUCT: can be for Venus (since Venus is a Gillette product)

To get the best "Bang for your Buck"
- Price Matching (if your store allows it) is one of the best ways to get the cheapest price. Collect all the store flyers in your area, & search for the items you are wanting to purchase at lower prices. Clearly mark with markers, tabs, or sticky notes on the flyer so it is easy to find when you are at the check-out. I also mark on my spreadsheet which flyer had the best price for each item.
- Stack your coupons on top of great sale prices.
- You can find out current store prices on line as well. www.flyerland.ca is a great resource. www.londondrugs.com has all the shelf prices on their website. I use this site often, since flyers only show you prices on a few of their store items.

I know that this sounds like a lot of work, but this is how to get items for free frequently. Be as organized as you can possibly be!!! so you have no surprises.

How to Start Couponing....General Rules

The Rules:
  • coupons must have a canadian mailing address on them. They will not be accepted if it has a US address.
  • Coupons must not be expired
  • typically, You may only use ONE coupon per item....there is exceptions to this rule :o) ... Stay tuned!
  • Internet "printed" coupons are not accepted everywhere. It is best to ask each store that you go to if they accept them or not before you shop. 
  • If you are printing your own from the internet, some stores will ask that they are printed in color. If they are smudged, obviously photocopied, or expired they will not be accepted.
  • In Golden, Overwaitea, Fields & the big drugstore all accept printed coupons - Sobeys does not...
  • Each store interpret the statements on the coupons differently..."one coupon per purchase" may or may not be the same as "one coupon per transaction"....yes..confusing...if you are buying multiple of the same item with multiple coupons...with these statements, the cashier may ask you to pay for them each one at a time......"one coupon per item" is pretty clear.
 Start by signing up to the following sites. These sites are legit, and will mail you coupons 7-10 days from ordering them. They are all manufacturers coupons.  You will need to re-visit the sites that you sign up for to order more coupons. They will not be sent automatically when new coupons appear. I will generally check each site once a week. www.gocoupons.ca will allow you to re-order all the coupons they offer each week.

Collect tear pad coupons from the stores. These are also manufactures coupons. If they are not store specific, they will be good everywhere!  http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_102416039836477&ap=1  This is my Facebook group "Canadian Coupons". Whenever a printable or new coupon is found it is usually posted on this page by whom ever found it.
