How to get more coupons

[Littleskipper]

I use mostly inserts and IPQs. On some of the matchups I've seen a lot of references to "home mailer". For example Thomas English muffins. How do I go about getting these "mailers"? I visit a lot of websites to register with them but I haven't seen too many coupons come my way.

Hi! The easiest way to get those coupons is to send an email to the company telling them how much you like their product... most of them will send some sort of coupons. Here's a list to get you started as well as some tips from others who have written. HTH

I find lots of coupons in-store, blinkies are everywhere including CVS, and tearpads can be found on those special cardboard displays at the ends of aisles, and don't forget to look for peelies on things you want to buy or are on sale.

I'll take a few of everything I see, even if I don't think I'll use it, because I love to trade here and it seems as soon as I think I'll throw some coupon out because no one wants it, then a great sale comes along and I end up using them myself!

I find myself with less non-inserts these days because I've gotten into a habit of doing 2 or 3 transactions at a time to combine my trips into one day instead of going out to the stores several times a week. I try to go when the store is less busy anyways, and make time to roam the aisles, I always find sales I didn't know about and coupons I would have missed otherwise.

Yeah compliments work well and so do complaints. I went a very drastic route when we bougt a new car a year ago. The saleman took advatage of us and I didn't realize it before we left and he didn't credit our trade. It was really late and my wife and I were really tired. I contacted Toyota and went through complaints thing and it did nothing. So I created a website (purchased a domain that was www/donotshop...etc. and stood outside their car dealership with a sign that said I got screwed you will too. They saw the website (I Listed on google :biggrin:) and did not like the idea of an unhappy customer just outside their dealership picketing. They wrote me a check and gave me some free stuff. :whistle67: ANyways I have gotten coupons when their was something wrong (like at papa johns or pizza hut) I don't complain unless its serious. Applebees bought me a free dinner (50 dollar card) when my wife and I ate there and the waitress forgot about us (over 30 minutes) My advice is to go to corporate office with those cases not local store or manager will cover it up (Marcos did that here) - they did not put the toppings I wanted on a pizza. Wendy's is good about it too as they forgot a sandwich once and sent me coupons (they wanted me to drive back to store and I politely said no......was 10-15 minutes away)
