Works for me Wednesday - Remember to use your coupons!

Are you a coupon clipping, bargain hunting, list maker when it comes to your shopping? Hey, so am I! Every week I sit down with the grocery circulars and my coupons to plan my meals and my shopping. I clip and use so many coupons. Lately, though, I have been forgetting to use the coupons that made my "deals" actual deals. One night on the way home from the grocery store, I thought of a solution to my problem!
Paper clip the coupons to my check card (the only way I ever pay for groceries) OR to the back of my grocery list. This way when I get to the checkout I can't forget to use them! It was a couple of weeks ago when I did this for the first time and I have done it every time since and what do you know, it has worked!
Saving money on my groceries? That works for me!

So helpful! I use coupons all the time, but I often forget to use them, especially when I use them at places other than the grocery store.
