Coupon Clipping 2.0
Rob Walker from the New York Times did an article on coupons. Here’s are two sites you may want to check out for online coupons- Coupons and Coupon Winner. There’s also Zixxo.
And after all, even traditional clippers have always been motivated by something besides the money — as anyone who listened to Mom announce her weekly coupon-savings totals knows quite well. “They see themselves as the head of the household, and they pride themselves” on skillful saving, Meyers points out. Maybe the modern, tech-enabled consumer remembers Mom’s frugalista boasts as puzzling behavior in a less-sophisticated era. But with $4 gas and rising prices, it’s something to think back on with fresh understanding as that Peet’s coupon slides out of the printer.
