I can't ever get them to print off, and when I do, some stores won't take them. I belong to a site called "Cincymom.com" that has quick recipes, doc recommendations, etc...and they have this coupon section but it NEVER works. Nor does the couponlady one, or any of the others I've tried.
Has anyone else had good luck with this stuff?

| Jonni~ I was just looking at an online coupon site last night and it had a little disclaimer kind of thing at the bottom of the page that said you may have to download this certain software to print the coupons. I don't know if the ones you are trying to use may need that too, but I would think it would say so if you did. I didn't try to print them because they weren't anything I used, but I may go now just to see if I can! I have always wondered if stores were good about accepting online coupons like that. It just seems like the stores wouldn't want to, like they were fake or something. Hopefully someone will have a better answer for you! |

Jonni,
The only time I have problems is if I need to download software for it. I know that some places you have to register like Eat Better America, I have signed up and do not get bombarded with e-mails. I check out www.moneysavingmom.com for coupons and deals too.
Sometimes ability to print depends on the browser (like Internet Explorer or Firefox)
As far as store policy, my local Wal-Mart, Safeway and City Market (Krogers) all accept Internet coupons. I always carry the store policy with me in my coupon folder just in case it is ever questioned.
Does this help?

It does...Thanks, girls. I will try to go and download the software. It seems like over the weekend (on my home computer) I downloaded that stuff 3 times and still nothing. I could print off a page, then the rest of the coupons were "dark"...I couldn't click on them with the mouse and tick them off.
Weird. I'll keep trying, or I'll just rely on my circular and Sunday paper ones.

I have had better luck downloading coupons from a product's website rather than a huge coupon site. I tried to download it a few times before it worked also. You might also check to make sure the coupons are not queud-spelling? up on your printer. I mainly print coupons from Stoneyfield Farms and Earth's Best.
For online codes I like anycoupons.com
I also like couponcabin.com
Jonni, You might also sign up at the Goodstart website. They sent me a few vouchers.
