I use Ubuntu as my OS, Open Office as my software, and Firefox3 as the browser … but most coupon printers don’t recognize that configuration. They claim to support Firefox, but only when run on a Windows platform. Feh.

But when I am buying something online I always check http://www.RegisteredCoupons.com to find a coupon code I can use to save some money.

It gives me time to clip the sort the coupons from the Sunday paper, and review all the circulars for the coming week. I like to go shopping earlier in the week because stores sometimes run low on the hot sale products.

Yes, it is an additional subscription and service, but they do all the coupon legwork for you. They basically create a list that cross-references what is on sale that week with unexpired coupons from the last few months (it takes a couple months to really see the bargains).

I now regularly go to the grocery store and spend, say, $40, and the receipt says i have saved $40, basically cutting my grocery bill in half.

This gives me time to go through the Sunday circulars that day…and I find that sometimes store specials coincide with the printing of coupons that week.

If you go early enough, there’s nobody around. And it gets us all out of my wife’s hair for awhile.

In any case, one of the best tools I have for grocery shopping is a Price Book. I know, I know – a big pain. But not really.

I just record the best price we’ve found for whatever it is we buy as we go. If we find a price that is better, we stock up. If we find a sale, we know if it’s really worthwhile.

It has been a *huge* help!
