Ways to shop with coupons for bargains at Walmart

During the week before visiting your Walmart, in order to get all of the bargains, it is helpful to go to www.slickdeals.net. Go to forums, then click on Drugstore/Grocery B&M Deals and then search for Walmart thread. Start from the last page and read what post people have put there in regards to what deals they have recently got at their local Walmart. It will have links there on some of the post as to where to print off coupons. Work your way backwards on the pages for a week or so in the threads to get all of the information you can about what kind of bargains you may be able to get there in the next few days when you go there.
Your local Walmart may or may not have prices the same as what people have posted, but if you are lucky they will. I have went to ours on several occasions armed with coupons and expecting to come home with some really good deals only to find our Walmart did not have the same deals as others. But I will come home with some good deals always.
If you go to www.walmart.com and go to in stores now and look for coupons you may find some to print off of their website to help in your shopping. While you are there click on free samples and sign up for all of the samples they will send to your home at no charge. Do this weekly. I get free samples weekly from them.
Even samples I have got before, they will put up again and I sign up again and get the sample again a few weeks later.
Also go to a www.afullcup.com and www.couponmom.com and check out their Walmart posts on what the good deals are. You may also find some coupon links on their website to help.
Then go to all of the coupons printing websites I told you about in the last post to check for coupons: www.coupons.com , smartsource, redplum , slickdeals, etc. You can also go to www.allyou.com and print coupons on their website. Also look at all of your manufacturers coupons for any products you may purchase there when you go and clip them out. And if you purchased an All you magazine, be sure to check it for any coupons you might use there along with any other magazines you may have had coupons to clip from.
When you have all of your coupons printed and clipped, then organize your coupons buy products like, meats, frozen fruits, frozen veggies, frozen entrees etc. Then next thing to do is organize them by the aisles in the store. If you don't have a coupon organizer, then put them in order by what aisle you will go down first and so on and the last batch of coupons at the back. Sometime I just put them in a business envelope.
It is best to look at the expiration date on all coupons and to make sure you use the correct coupons to purchase the correct item. If you are in doubt about a coupon, take it anyway. If you don't, you will probably get there and wish you had, believe me!!
It is nothing for me to save 50.00 or more each time I go to Walmart armed with coupons. This past week it was like $86.00 I saved with my coupons. I had some really good coupons and managed to come home with all different types of food, meat, cheese, low calorie snacks, frozen entrees, low calorie ice cream snacks, and more.
I have to tell you my husband never much cared for me to mess with coupons, but he has finally come around and is glad that I do and when I come home with all of the goodies, and he sees how much I save, he actually tells the men at work and his friends about it now.
It does take some time to cut out the coupons, so if you have to sit in a doctors office, or anywhere like that, when you will have spare time, you can make use of it by cutting them out.
When my Mom was recently in the hospital and I had to sit with her each day, I took mine and cut them out, sorted and got rid of all of my outdated ones.
If you have young children that are always wanting money. Teach them the correct way to cut them out. Make sure you point out that sometimes there is a coupon on the back that is right next to the one on the front and if they don't cut down the line, they may cut half the coupon off the back page. Then reward the child with a dollar or two for cutting them properly for you.
Of course, you possibly could use this for punishment for them not behaving HAHA! But this may discourage them from shopping wisely when they are older.
Well, so much for the crash course in bargain shopping at Walmart. Hope this helps you save lots of money and come home with some excellent deals from Walmart.
Happy Wally World shopping!

PS My good friend Kelli says be sure to remember you can take a sale flyer from Dollar General, Family Dollar and CVS to Walmart and if the same picture of what you are buying is on the sales add then you can get their sale price at Walmart.
