Thanks for the coupon advice guys. Where we used to live, meat and produce deals were great. (I once got soon-to-expire name-brand hotdogs for 19 cents a pack with no coupons or anything...about 25 packs of them.) And I'd use the store coupons since they often have coupons for their store-brands. But, even on sale and with a coupon, it was rarely a good idea to buy name brands. So coupons almost never got any use.

But here is different. The local grocery store I use (has the lowest prices and best sales) doesn't have many meat or produce markdowns. But, they do have gobs of store coupons for both store brands and name brands and often their sales on the name-brands make them cheaper than the store brand. So I really need to start saving manufacturer coupons and get on the coupon bandwagon. Especially since (and I'm sure you guys already know this) you can use a store coupon AND a manufacturer coupon on the same item.

But I'm so new to coupons and I'm looking for the super awesome deals I keep hearing about. lol. Thanks guys.
