Last week’s example of Piggy Backing brought out LOTS of questions. One was about how to go about getting all those coupons to stack. The ones in the example were gathered at our club meeting. We had one lady who had a tear pad and shared her extras, another had a different newspaper coupon that we all needed. Then we found some in the store. It just all worked out.
The key to Piggy backing is to find the one coupon that connects two stacks of coupons. My experience is that mostly that coupon will be a ambiguous coupon. We used the “Save $1 on chips” and it did not indicate which type of chips would be necessary. That coupon was the key to getting two very specific stacks to work together. It tied the Velveeta and Kraft stack to the Pepsi and Chips stack.
Coupons do have varying values other than the face value. Experienced coupon users will find that these ambiguous coupons that cover a category and not a specific brand can be the key to saving an additional $5 on a set of items.
Other coupons of higher value to coupons users include Buy and Get coupons. Obviously those are a minimum of 50% savings. But you can also stack these much easier with the Cents Off coupons. So any Buy and Get coupon is considered High Value or a HOT coupon.
The other eally good coupons to look for are the FREE with Qualifier coupons. Just like with Buy and Get coupons.
If you are not having luck with newspaper BOGO’s or FWQ, do some searches online. You can search for the type of coupons as well as the product being sold.
I wa
s also asked last week if you can use a BOGO coupons when the items are on sale BOGO. Yes! That means the store is buying you one, and the manufacturer is buying the other. The only thing better than 1 free is 2 free.
