Coupon Sources

There are many, many ways to find coupons. I've gone about it many ways myself. Here's a few of them:

• Buy a paper (the simplest and most expensive)
• Bum papers off your parents, grandparents, aunt, uncles, in-laws, neighbors and anyone else you may know :)
• Get them from your hubby's work (rarely)
• Buy papers 1/2 price on Monday (some gas stations and drugstores will have leftovers for sale)
• Go recycling dumpster diving (yep, I've done it. Very humbling)
• Print them
• Email a company for them

The last one is the one I want to address today. I have done this before (with P&G and Sunmaid). Some companies will send you coupons just for emailing them. It's definitely worth a shot. To get you started, For the Mommas has posted a list (and another here) of companies she's heard sends out coupons if requested. I plan on working my way down the list!
