The purpose of Creative Couponing® is to help you save money one deal or coupon at a time. It doesn’t matter if you save $1 or $50 in a week. It is money that you still have in your hand.!
I share deals that I would do and I will never post anything that I wouldn’t participate in or print myself.
The site is free, though many people wonder how I get paid for all that I do and I don’t feel that it is wrong to get compensated for the work that I put into Creative Couponing. When you print a coupon, download a free ebook, click on an ad, or sign up for a freebie, I could be earning a small kickback from the manufacturer. I also use several affiliate links when they become available for me to use to help pay for the costs of running a site. I can tell you that I put in way more effort than what I get in monetary value.
There are times that I will post a giveaway and I will let you know if I received a product or compensation for posting the give away. I will give you my honest opinion on any product and I won’t sugar coat anything.
All in all, I won’t ever post something that I won’t do myself as I don’t feel it is fair to you, the fans of Creative Couponing, to ask you to do something I wouldn’t do just to make a quick buck.
If at anytime you have questions, please feel free to contact me. I don’t bite…at least not hard. 
Thanks for being part of Creative Couponing!
Karen

I am incredibly interested in your Couponing 101 classess, are you offering anymore??? Thanks much!
Yes, I will be but not until Sept.
I’m a “seasoned” couponer and I LOVED the class last night at Rasmussen ! I’m EAGERLY awaiting a (hopefully) free 201 class there VERY soon! The free sunday paper was awesome~~~
Thanks!
Hi Karen, I am wondering what you know about using manufacture coupons rom Rainbows add that have the Rainbow logo on it. How are they perceived at Cub foods, or any other stores, when you try to use them there? And also when they say from this date to that date to be used, have you had success using them later at Cub or what is your thoughts???? Thanks.
From my experience, most Cub Foods will take them as long as it is a manufacturer coupon. I have used the date to date coupons at Cub Foods with no problems.
That’s nice! I was wondering about this too. Glad I came across Donna’s post. One thing though, I was at the Midway Rainbow and used a target man Q there, they told us they don’t take any man Qs with other store’s logo on it. Do you know if this is true with other Rainbow Foods or any other stores! I found it kinda absurd, but I’m just a beginner couponer, so I wanted to double check with you.
Each store can make up their own rules even though there are plenty of Rainbow’s that will take other stores manufacturer coupons. Re-look at their coupon policy to see what it states and then if you are correct, bring it in with you next time.
HI Karen, I’m wondering if I can use 2 1.00/1 ICBINB coupons along with a b2g1 free bread coupon in the same transaction?
Nope…because the B2G1 Free bread coupon is coded for the ICBINB. So the coupon will beep
Ok, good to know, thanks!
I am wondering what is a good coupon organizer that I can take to the grocery store in my purse?
I take a cheap $1 one that I found in the dollar spot at Target.
Is the Star Tribune subscription deal with WaterPark of America passes still going on?
thanks!
Yes, it is.
Karen – I was wondering if the General Mills promotion for a free gas card is still going on and if so, where do I find it on your website?
Karen – Just wanted to thank you for all the hard work you put into this blog. I have never met you, yet you are a trusted friend I introduce to as many people as I can! I have recently completed a couple of food challenges, that would not have been financially possible without your guidence.
Thank you – Cindy Riddle

I’m sorry if this has been asked somewhere else, but, when I click on the add to my coupon list button, I can’t find my list. I have searched and searched for it, but cant find it. Thanks in advance for your help.
It should pop up for you on the right.
Have you heard of Target stores limiting you to using one Target coupon per item per transaction, but still allowing four manufacturers coupons? I just had my first run in at Apple Valley, HORRIBLE!
You can use a Target and a manufacturer coupon on the same item. I have not heard about only using one Target coupon per transaction, THOUGH the coupon states one coupon per transaction on them. Yet…a person should be able to use more than one as long as it isn’t the same Target coupon in the same transaction.
Nope, they even called over a manager only one Target coupon. So say I bought 4 up &up ibuprofen and had 4 target coupons, they will only allow me to use one of my four coupons…the manager was nice enough to forgive my ” mistake” and allow it this one time, but in the future only one target coupon for ONE item. But so far I have only experienced this at Apple Valley East Target.
Ahhh the Target coupons do state one coupon per transaction. So they weren’t wrong though I am sure you felt that they treated you like you were doing something wrong on purpose when many Targets didn’t care if you used one or more.
Dollar Days sale for King’s County Market in Andover and St. Francis Minnesota is 12/5/2012.
