Q&A: What is a Printable coupon? and other Frequently Asked Questions

[concettaz]

It so aggravates me when I go to print a coupon, and they fill the entire page with extra advertising, wasting my ink and paper.
The ink is SO expensive!).
It seems a crime to try to save money by using coupons, only to have to spend ink from $20 - $30 cartridges!!

I came across this tip.
I don't know if it works for all printers, but it seems common enough that it sure is worth a try.
Printers stop printing when they get to the end of a piece of paper (probably to protect the printer from getting ink all over its innards).
Coupons are usually at the top of the page.
When I want to print just one coupon, I insert half a sheet of paper, and when it gets to the end of the half-sheet, it stops. I don't get the extra half a page of wasted ink.
Wish I had known this about 4,000 coupons ago!

I want to print a few coupons but i have reached my print limit for those.. Is there any way to print them other than a different computer.. ie clearing cookies ect..

I always have problems with bricks links..

[cheynesnana]

You can try clearing your cookies but I've never had any luck doing that... usually I can't print anymore until it is reset.. and most of them I've never managed to figure out how often the reset..LOL.. I just get lucky once in awhile and get more to print!

when I try to print from smartsource the barcodeprintsbut not the value of the coupon,will the store still accept these?

Are the coupons listed in this thread the same as the ones in the Coupon Database? I tried looking for one posted in this thread in the database and it wasn't there. I'm just wondering why coupons are in 2 different places. I know this thread is for printables only but if I'm looking for printables should I search in this thread and in the database as well?

Hi.. sorry I just saw this!

I try and keep everything in the database but sometimes it gets ahead of me... also, sometimes things get put in the database with whatever expiration date that person got when they printed it.. which means it drops out after that date.. so I would suggest checking both places...

I've had trouble with smartsource, too! For the past couple months, it only prints the pic of the product--no other part of the coupon! I've tried everything I can think of to fix it...anyone else experience something like this and find a fix???

Does anyone know when the new Target IP's come out? Is it just the beginning of the month like everything else, or is it random?? Do they put new one's throughout the month?
