Easy grocery coupons...could it be?

| | Comments (2) |

grocerycouponsscissors.jpgMy friend Maggie told me about this site and it sounds too good to be true. At Shortcuts.com you register your grocery store frequent shopper cards then add coupons to your cards. When you buy the item at the store the card remembers the coupon and automatically deducts the savings. To join the site you give them your email address, they email you to confirm the request to join, then you register your name, address, and club card numbers.

The only grocery store it works with around here is Ralphs, unfortunately. The whole process of joining and finding coupons took me less than 10 minutes, and I was disappointed to find they only had 12 coupons. I added five coupons totaling $4, including three for cereal, one for tp, and one for yogurt. Read more about how it works.

I guess they add new coupons each week and they can only be added a certain number of times so the good ones go quick. The best part about the site is not having to clip coupons *and* remember to use them. Shortcuts lets you make a shopping list and add your coupons to remind you which ones you have on your card. Expired coupons are automatically removed from your account. Not too shabby. Thanks, Maggie!

I've used this a few times already, and it does work! You can even combine with paper coupons if you have them. Hopefully there will be more coupons available online as the site gets established!
