Today we talked about one of my favorite Couponing Strategies: Stacking Coupons!
Remember, Target stores will allow you to stack……you can combine one manufacturers coupon and one Target coupon per item purchased. That’s 2 coupons per item…..and HUGE SAVINGS, especially when combined with a sale.
Find Target Coupons:
In mailed out booklets and catalogs from Target (check before you throw them out)
In various monthly magazine advertisements
Target Online Printable Coupons – click here
Find Manufacturer’s Coupons:
Make sure you also get as many manufacturer’s coupons as you can……remember, when you find a Target coupon, you’ll want to match it to a manufacturers coupon. Find manufacturers coupons in newspapers or print them online….these all have barcodes and are accepted at major stores. I have no problem with these:
Coupons.com - new ones released today, the first of the month! Hurry, they’ll go fast.
Red Plum coupons
HomeMade Simple Coupon Booklet – click here – $35 in coupons, including the one I used for Dawn dish soap
With Printable Coupons make sure to:
PRINT NOW: Each coupon has a print limit, once they are gone, they are gone. New ones are added each week, and I’m always watching so I can alert you.
PRINT TWICE: After your first set of coupons print, hit the back arrow on your screen, then the refresh button. You can usually print each coupon twice!
Here’s what I showed you today:
Starbucks Coffee 12oz bag
$7.00 sale price
- $1.00 mfgr coupon (in March and April issues of All You Magazine)
or in the 3/21 Smart Source coupon insert (exp 5/31)
- $1.50 Target coupon online
= $4.50 (plus you can turn in empty bag at Starbucks for a free cup coffee)
*Note: this is cheaper than the Target brand (Archer Farms) sale price

***FRUGAL TIP: This is about the only magazine I’m willing to pay for. Why? The March issue alone had over $77.00 in high value coupons. I was able to grab FREE Mascara this month with one of the coupons, and the April issue has a coupon good for FREE Rimmel makeup too! April issue has over $81.00 in coupons, most high dollar coupons. The magazine is approx $19 per year through amazon right now – All You Magazine (1-year) – click here This is one magazine that more than pays for itself.
