    I wait to see how low they get clearence down after the holidays. I have saved about 60 to 70% by doing this.

    The Sunday paper has become my best friend. I'm 25 and use coupons without hesitation or feeling guilty.

    I watch store ads, research online and double check the clearance sections of stores I shop regularly. I also am willing to wait until I see the price I am after on a big ticket item.

    i search the internet for deals and sign up for notification for products I plan to buy on fatwallet.com and slickdeals.net. I also get all the black friday ads as soon as they are available. I clip coupons everywhere but brick and mortar stores don't always accept coupons from online.

    I do use on-line coupons, printed coupons, and store coupons. I also check our 3 main grocery stores websites each week. I can then find what they have on sale that week, if they are offering coupons, and if I have coupons for those items. Between sales, store coupons, and manufacture coupons, you can get stuff cheap/free/or even get paid to buy the item=) Have a great holiday guys and gals!

    I find my best deals come from siging up as a member of my favorite stores and getting online promo's. I am selective and loyal to particular retailers and brands so getting aceess to eveyone's codes is not all that effiicient for me .

    I always look for in-store coupons first, but I never ignore the savings I can find online (especially at Christmas time!).
