$50 AFullCup.com Challenge

by Stephanie on April 21, 2009

I was recently challenged by AFullCup.com to see how much I could get with $50 by using coupons from their site.  I actually had a hard time spending that much money!  My first trip into the store I only spent $20, so I had to go back in and get some more!  The deals were really great, and when I paired them with the great coupons from AFullCup.com I saved…..well, watch the video below and find out!

You did great! I’m taking the challenge too. I hope I can do as well as you. There are no stores that double coupons here. I live in the boonies. :(

I am a big fan of your’s and have been for a month or two since finding your site. I am getting better with coupons all the time, but just curious where you get your coupons besides A Full Cup. How many newspapers to do buy, etc….? Thanks!
Loved the video!

Triple coupons!?! I am drooling over here. We don’t even have any stores that double. Great job, that is a LOT of stuff!

Joy,

I usually buy 2-4 newspapers per week depending on how good the coupons are going to be. I also watch for “blinkie” coupons and sign up for several manufacturer mailing lists and newsletters which frequently contain coupons.

You have a great website! I also live in DFW, and I was wondering if you have considered posting deals for Tom Thumb weekly like you do Kroger and Albertson’s?

Aubrey,

I have considered it, but their deals are few and far between and I already have a lot on my plate with 5 stores per week! My friend Rachel @ Surviving the Stores usually covers Tom Thumb, so you might check out her site (link in my sidebar).

Spanglishmama,

They have printable coupons available as well as a coupon database to help you find the coupons you need.
