Led by coupon expert Marcia Layton Turner, it was Holly and Norma versus Evan and Doug to see which team could save the most in the Tops shopping challenge.
Marcia’s Shopping Rules:
- Plan your shopping trip by reading the weekly sales flyer first
- Know the full retail price of products you buy regularly so you know a good price
- Stock up when you find a great deal
- Use store and manufacturer coupons on one product to save more
- Buy the smallest size product to reduce out-of-pocket expense
- Don’t use a coupon if another brand is still cheaper, even without a coupon
- Order more coupons from The Coupon Clippers when you find a good sale
- Get help spotting deals from Refund Cents
- Sign up for store bonus cards and e-mail deals online
- Look for rebates on store displays
- Watch for "Try Me Free" offers on product packaging
