Like i see the shows (which makes me think it is faked) where they go from a 300+$ total before coupons to a few dollars. Most of the coupons i seen have a one coupon pet item/transaction type limit that prevents that kind of stacking the rebates. How can they stack them?
In: Economics
I used to do it. It’s 100% real (or was a number of years ago. I don’t know how well it works now.)
It’s a lot of time to set up in the beginning, but once I had a system down, it was just a few hours on Sunday every week.
My biggest one was Rite Aid. They accepted manufacturers coupons on top of their own coupons in the paper AND you could pair it with another coupon in their coupon books they sold for $5 once a month AND, you could use each coupon for up to three of the same item. The key was waiting for the sale, then hit them all at once with the coupons.
But wait! There’s more!
You also got coupons on your receipt and could use those too! Not only coupons, but you’d get an instant rebate when you bought, say, $25 dollars worth of hair care products. So, say I bought $75 worth of hair care products (and why wouldn’t I when it only cost me $1.75). If there’s a $3 rebate on $25, then I just made $9 that I can use on my next trip. Pretty soon, I’m only paying for things in receipts.
I only did it for about a year because there’s really only so much mouthwash and soap and shampoo we could reasonably store and use. It was a lot of fun while it lasted.
