I'm officially a coupon dork. lol
How do you get free/cheap stuff with coupons? Here's an example. If you live in an area with a Giant Food Store and Target, you can take advantage of these.
Got my Giant flyer and I see that
Birds Eye Vegetables and Steamfresh are on sale for 69 cents! (Sept 27-Oct3)

So I go looking for coupons for this item.
From the paper I've got:
Save $1.00 on 2
Save 50 cents on 1 (FREE once Giant doubles)
Save $1.00 on 2
From the internet I've got:
Save 50 cents on 1 (FREE once Giant doubles)
(I could probably find more online if I took more time to look.)
Anyhow...that means I can get 4 bags of veggies for 19 cents and 2 bags for FREE.
Another example...this one is free
Colgate toothpaste Goes on sale at Giant for 99 cents for a 4.6oz tube. There's always a coupon for $1.00 off Colgate 4 oz or larger. FREE.
Skippy Peanut ButterGo and print 2 Target coupons
here. (Then use the coupon from the paper 1.00 off 2- 15oz jars. Target has 15oz Skippy for $2.04. You can get 2 jars for $1.08 or 54 cents each.
