It's not about the coupons you have but about timing; when to use the coupons.
Match Coupons with Sales and Promotions
One of the biggest mistakes you can make is
using a coupon just because you have it. The key is to wait until that
item goes on sale or the store runs a promotion. Nearly all stores run a
weekly ad with newly slashed prices and great promotions like: Buy One, Get One Free or Spend $15 on these products, get $5 back or Buy 4, Save $4 Instantly. When
you’re sure the item is marked at a bargain price or the promotion is
too good to pass up, then add a coupon on top of it, and you’ve just
scored an amazing deal!
Stack Your Coupons
Stacking simply means use one manufacturer coupon and one store coupon on one
item. Target, Walgreens, Kroger, and Rite Aid (just to name a
few) all issue store coupons and allow them to be stacked with a
manufacturer coupon. (You can never use two manufacturer coupons on one
item.)
Double Coupons
You’ve probably heard about stores that
“double” coupons, meaning they accept your coupon at twice the face
value. So, for example, if a coupon is $0.50 off one item, the store
will honor that coupon at $1.00 off. If you find a store that doubles or
is having a doubling promotion, jump on it. This is an amazing way to
save big.
