Tips to save:-- Look for BOGO (buy one, get one) deals and couple them with two manufacturer coupons.-- Don't be embarrassed to ask your friends for their extra coupons. They are like money.-- Price shop. Wal-Mart will match any price if you bring in a competitor's ad.-- Stick to your shopping list so you aren't tempted to buy full-priced items.-- Check out supermarkets for discounted meat. The stores usually cut prices in the mornings on meat about to expire.-- Leave the kids and husband at home when you shop. They often sneak non-coupon items into the cart.-- Give your two cents about a product by calling the manufacturer. They'll often send you coupons or free stuff.-- If a store is out of a sale item, ask for a raincheck.-- Never try to pass an expired coupon. That's cheating.Useful Web sites:afullcup.comhotcouponworld.comslickdeals.netthegrocerygame.comcouponmom.comcoupons.comeatbetteramerica.com(Distributed by Scripps Howard News Service, http://www.scrippsnews.com)

Tips for saving with coupons
