Coupons

I can't quite get the extreme couponing thing down, but I have found that coupons can be found in far more places than just the sales circulars that come with the Sunday paper. It always pays to check the website of whatever store you plan to visit before you go. For instance, a few weeks ago, I was on my way to Target to buy, among other things, a shirt for myself because I just don't have very many right now.

Before I left for the store, I went to Target's website and found a coupon for 30 percent off a particular brand of clothing (I think it was Merona or something like that.) Anyway, Target was also having a sale on that brand. I got a shirt originally marked for $15 for about $5.

I admit it doesn't work out that nicely for me every time, but it never hurts to look, and quite often, it can pay quite well.
