Tips for Locating Those Hard to Find Coupons:

Tip #1: Company Websites are Key
Visit the websites of produce, meat, baby, and organic companies. Sign up for any email lists or free newsletters, offers, incentives they have available! If you can’t locate anything like this, a contact email address is always available for you to use. In this case, just send a short, positive email expressing your satisfaction with the company’s product and your desire to be a loyal customer. Kindly ask for any promotional coupons, samples, or offers they might have available and be sure to include an address. Remember to be polite, and chances are you will get something!

Tip #3: Seek out a Store Manager
Would you believe that when a company rep comes and stocks shelves and displays, they often give coupons to the store manager to pass out? Sadly, most of those coupons get forgotten about. Why not ask your store manager if any produce, meat, cheese, baby, or organic coupons are available? If not, they might ask for you next time a rep comes in to stock the display.

Tip #3: Look for Peelies and Wine Tags
Peelies and wine tags often offer savings on items that don’t typically have coupons. For example, many wine bottles have tags on them valid on meat and cheese. Many produce companies put peelies on their products (coupons you can peel off) for instant savings as well. Keep your eyes peeled for these offers, as you will have to catch them while you are shopping. Have friends and family keep their eyes peeled too!
