sweetangel.....yes, if you are going to use more than allowed coupons in one transaction then you must do more than one transaction. if the store policy says it will only double the first 2 coupons of the like and you want to use more than 2 coupons then you have to do more than 1 transaction. I have no idea why they allow coupon stacking other than it will bring more customers to their store.... I learned from sites like couponmom.com , coupondivas.com, saving dollar and sense.... etc, sites like those will do coupon matchups for you to see what will work for you. no, the catalinas dont say it on the coupons....it is something I learned from extreme couponing and if you go to youtube and search extreme couponing you will learn a lot from that too. the last 2 catalinas I received were from Yoplait yogurts.... if a sales ad states that if you purchase so many of 1 item that you will receive cash back on your next order -- that is a notification of a catalina deal. you have to read the coupon..... if it says limit 2 or allow only 4 like coupons that means if you have a coupon for kraft salad dressing (just an example) and it says allow only 4 like coupons....then you can only use 4 coupons per transaction of the kraft salad dressing coupon. If you have 8 coupons and want to use them all in the same trip then you have to do 2 transactions.... you have to check with your store policy to see how many coupons are allowed per transaction....some stores only allow up to 35 coupons per transaction and then you shop according to that and how many coupons you have to use. I hope that helps. To the member I am quoting have you ever used 4 of the same coupons in the same store in the same shopping trip. To the member I am quoting what is coupon matchups and how does it work on the websites you mentioned in the quote I am quoting from you. To the member I am quoting when you use couponmom.com, coupondivas.com, saving dollar and sense than did you have to create an account on any of the websites I mentioned and do any of the websites I mentioned allow people to print coupons from them. To the member I am quoting how were you able to receive 2 catalinas from buying Yoplait yogurts and how much will you save on each of the catalina coupons you received from buying Yoplait yogurts. To the member I am quoting I didn't know some coupons said one of the following things you shared on them.-limit 2 or allow only 4 like coupons To the member I am quoting did you learn the following from watching Extreme Couponing or some other way. Why would some stores only allow the following per transaction?-some stores only allow up to 35 coupons per transaction To the member I am quoting when you said the following in a post in this thread on June 23, 2012 than what is considered as extreme shopping and why does one of your aunts not use coupons when she does extreme shopping.-have an aunt who does extreme shopping but doesnt use coupons

sweetangel.... yes I have used 4 coupons in 1 trip. a coupon matchup is a list of the sales that match the coupons that come out each week....you would have to look at the sites in order to understand it. and no, you dont have to sign up with the sites...I have but it benefits me and its free to sign up with them. my catalinas are worth 2.00 and 1.25 --when you look at a sales paper they will tell you, buy so many and get a custom coupon for your next shopping trip -- that is a catalina deal. it goes by state and store ad. I have no ideal why some stores limit coupons....it is at there discretion to let people use them. --again it would fall into the store coupon policy that you have to read. it was just a joke, my aunt shops a lot -- thats all. sorry it was meant to be funny. However --I shopped today with my coupons and scored!!!! I got 2 free chi chi salsas, heluva good dips for .54 each, and nutella for only $2 a jar.....and there was a $5 off 2 coupon for coppertone sunscreen and the sale was buy 1 get 1 half off.... with my coupon I bought 1 and got the second one free!!! SWEET!!!! I did really well with my coupons today.

To the member I am quoting what benefit(s) do you get from the websites that you have singed up for that have matchups on them. Does each weeks matchups start on Sundays? To the member I am quoting why did the two catalinas you received for $2.00 and $1.25 not for the same amount if you bought Yoplait yogurts to get the two catalina coupons. To the member I am quoting why do catalinas go by state. To the member I am quoting how does a person read a stores coupon policy. What I am asking is where are stores coupon policy usually located so a person can read it.

sweetangel..... you either buy more than 1 sunday paper... I buy 3 or 4 depending on what coupons are coming out that week and you can get coupons from family members or friends that share coupons they dont use. or you can go to a recycle center and ask for the inserts that were turned in.
I get email alerts on sales and freebies...so it is a benefit to me to sign up with those sites. and I have them on my facebook as well so I get notified thru that as well.
because I bought 20 yoplait yogurts and 3 boxes of go-gurts for my kids.... different products from yoplait. it was all in the sale they were having.
I dont know about the catalinas and state policies, you would have to research it I guess. I just go by my sales ads.
you can find store coupon policies online, by store....or go to the service desk of any store and they can give you a paper of there coupon policy. its that simple.

stealth..... it would depend on the item and the store, like you can go to target.com and print target coupons that you can stack with manufacturers coupons. There are also Kroger.com/digital coupons and clip coupons to your store card and match those with manufactured coupons.... of if you have a meijers near you there is meijers.mperks.com and set up an account and clip coupons there and match those with manufactured coupons.
however -- this is a great deal on some things but you will only get 1 digital coupon to match up to 1 manufacturer coupon. so you have to take that into account when you set up your coupon shopping list.

Have you ever gone to a recycle center to do the following thing you said? -I buy 3 or 4 depending on what coupons are coming out that week and you can get coupons from family members or friends that share coupons they dont use. or you can go to a recycle center and ask for the inserts that were turned in.

sweetangel.... no, I get a list of the coupons that are coming out from the sites I go to and see what they are....if there is 3 inserts (red plum, smart source and p&g) coming out that week I get 4 papers, if there is 2 inserts or less (red plum and smart source) then I get 3 papers. so I have 3 sets of coupons at all times -- p&g only comes out once a month and I can use extras of those coupons so I get 4 papers that time.
I just filled out the box that says subscribe to emails on those sites...and go to there facebook page so I can link them to mine so I get notified twice.....this way I dont miss any deals.
digital coupons are clip to store card coupons.
you can only clip one coupon per item to your store card...so if you match that up to a manufacturer coupon then you only get 1 use -- not multiple -- like if you clip a coupon for dish soap and have a coupon for the dish soap -- you only get the 2 discounts on the same item once....I havent seen where you can get multiple coupons on your store card but you can always get more manufacturers coupons by buying more papers or getting them from friends or family if they are willing to share there unused coupons.
I hope that helps.

no what i mean how does one stack on the same product multiple times. oh sorry.... you can print off 2 coupons per computer from coupon sites or store coupons... if you have more than 1 computer then you can print 2 from each computer -- if you have family or friends that are willing to print off the 2 coupons for you --then you can get more coupons that way and match them up with a manufactured coupon -- like say for bounty paper towels --if you have a coupon for $1 off and then target has their own coupon for $1 off then you can stack the coupon and save twice on that product....if you have 6 coupons of each (store and manufact coupon) then you can use them and buy 6 packs of bounty paper towel and save. does that help? To the member I am quoting how do you know the following thing you said about the number of coupons that can be printed per computer. I didn't know that some stores that have websites have coupons on the stores website.-you can print off 2 coupons per computer from coupon sites or store coupons... To the member I am quoting when you said 6 coupons in the quote I am quoting from you than are you referring to 3 store coupons and 3 manufacture coupons or are you referring to something else. Can the 6 coupons be used in the same transaction? sweetangel.... no, I get a list of the coupons that are coming out from the sites I go to and see what they are....if there is 3 inserts (red plum, smart source and p&g) coming out that week I get 4 papers, if there is 2 inserts or less (red plum and smart source) then I get 3 papers. so I have 3 sets of coupons at all times -- p&g only comes out once a month and I can use extras of those coupons so I get 4 papers that time.

To the member I am quoting why would there be more than one insert in Sunday newspapers. I was wondering is each stores ads in Sunday newspapers considered a insert and if I am right on what I said than is that why Sunday newspapers have more than one insert. Let me know if I am right or wrong on what I said. To the member I am quoting what type(s) of coupons show up in red plum and smart source.

sweetangel.... I learned from watching the show extreme couponing about how many coupons you can print per computer.....and no I mean 6 coupons of each like I said in the post... 6 store/6manufact coupons. if you have 3 computers you can print 6 coupons -- 2 per computer....and if you buy more than 1 paper you get more than 1 manufacturer coupon.
most likely they can all be used in the same transaction unless the coupon specified that you can only use 4 like coupons. then you have to break it into 2 transactions.
seeing the list of coupons before they come out helps let you know how many papers you want to buy in order to get so many of certain coupons that you use.
no.... a stores ad paper is not a coupon insert ....only red plum, smart source and p&g inserts are the coupons ....those are your food, pet food, paper products, etc coupons.
stealth..... on average a coupon will last 6 weeks --on average, some can last up to 12 weeks before they expire..... you would have to time it right on a sale and use it before it expires. one thing good is that most coupons by the expiration date will have a new coupon come out... like the p&g coupons. they are basically the same ones every month but they only last a month.... so if they expire before you use them a new one will be out around the time of the expiration date....so your not really out of luck by missing the expiration date.

To the member I am quoting when a person buys one or more Sunday newspapers than are all the coupons in Sunday newspapers manufactures coupons or can some of the coupons in Sunday newspapers be just for certain stores such as the coupons can only be used at a certain grocery store. To the member I am quoting when the following happens for you than did you have to put in a zip code so the list of coupons you are told about in emails are ones that can be used in the state you live in.-seeing the list of coupons before they come out helps let you know how many papers you want to buy in order to get so many of certain coupons that you use. To the member I am quoting why is a stores ad paper not a insert. To the member I am quoting do you know why some coupons expire in 6 weeks and why some coupons will expire in 12 weeks and not all coupons expire in 6 weeks or 12 weeks.
