You’ve got to have enough time to juggle with apps and being careful not to buy too many things you don’t need.

[OneIncomeSuperSaver]

This is how many of us live comfortably on one income

[rameshwolf]

It seems like you end up buying much more than you need too get the savings. This is called "spaving" - spending to "save". It also seems like a part time job to scour all the apps etc.

[pipersecretp]

It is not, in fact, immediate. Rewards, rebates, ExtraBucks, etc. are AFTERWARDS.

Someone told me wow your so good with your money i said no when you are broke you just gotta be mindful been utilizing digits coupons since i started living alone

[GigaHellblaze]

I get coupons in the mail from my local Meijer and I shop there all the time, I have the app too and they always have sales or deals. This is something Walmart NEVER has, reason why I don't shop at Walmart. I love to have more coupons in the mail however from various stores.

I like the paper coupons that's me

[BeachBum]

Would love to see that kind of savings on fresh Whole Foods

[CheapsKate]

Always check the prices of other brands, especially store brands because you may find one of those to be cheaper than the brand that’s on sale or with a coupon.

[chloesheler]

Most people don’t realize that buying the comparison brand is cheaper than couponing and it’s rare to find a coupon for them. Most of them are better quality and taste just the same for your money.

I love couponing, have been for several years now, the saving is great for my household!!

[OrchidKiller]

I could care less if someone knows I’m using coupons 🙃

Right now you can roll the $15 GC off $50 purchase for household items at Target. Easy to do online.

And the amount of unnecessary things she stores because she over buys because it’s free….did this for a bit and I saw how this becomes an addiction and encouraged me to buy things I didn’t need or want

[tiffanycotton]

I love couponing❤❤❤❤ I survived covid through my stockpile I had before I got sick was off for 3 months no pay 😢 and when I got over being sick I had developed issues from being sick that made it hard to get right back to work. But now I use the apps more than paper coupons and I had to adjust but I love it still and got the family using it as well 😊😊😊

[MilanTobdzic]

Total scam. Case in point: the fact Vicky had to put in extra items she didn’t need to get the $25 minimum for laundry deals. And idk but at 0:41 couldn’t she have “saved money” not buying an excessive amount of items. It’s consumerism like this that leads to environmental and financial decay. Plus these companies aren’t charities… you better bet all the purchases you make being tracked and sold to advertisers. Today has some good segments but y’all shill for brands to often…

[barbaraking]

It’s so sad that we have to do all of this for lower prices.

[melindagibson]

Wow of they just lowered prices we would have to WORK a second time to buy food. With that said, this is awesome and it's fun to find a deal! Great job!❤

[louismat]

I have to buy certain items due to kids being allergic to one brand. I buy certain cereals bc thats the cereal I want, etc. There's never a coupon for it.

[spro]

Ibotta no longer allows manufacturers coupons to be stacked with their offers.
