The secret to getting groceries for 60%-90% off

One of my favorite parts of my work is sitting down and talking with women and men who are shopping for their families. I visit with families that shop the sales and seldom buy a product unless it’s on sale. I think that’s great they do this. I also visit with families who use coupons on the products they regularly buy. I think using coupons is great. However, savings ‘magic’ truly comes from applying your very high value coupons on top of your great local sales while taking advantage of all the other savings opportunities that exist. These savings combinations are how we calculate most of the 60%-80% off products each week.

One of the most surprising things people learn when they start shopping with SavingsAngel is that they can apply more than one coupon or discount on a single product. Although this concept is a bit confusing at first, it helps to understand the different categories of discounts:

1. Store Sales
2. Manufacturer Coupons
3. Store Coupons
4. Register Rewards / Extra Care Bucks / Catalinas
5. Manufacturer Rebates
6. Store Rebates
7. Other promotions / incentives

How to ‘stack’ discounts.
