grocery coupons made easy

Postby avalen » Sun Jul 05, 2009 1:54 pm

don't know how many of you keep a card or tag for discounts when you go
grocery shopping, mine is on my key tag but I recently found a place online
where I can download coupons directly to my key tag, then when I go shopping
it automatically gives me that discount if I bought the item. The site I signed
up for was shortcuts.com and there are also other places too but be careful
when you start checking out those sites cause they had a story on the news
about some of them scamming you. I check for coupons and if its something
I buy or might buy I click on it, its that simple. Saves me from trying to remember
the coupons when I go or even keeping that mess in the drawer.

Ava, I use this too. I'm not one to remember coupons, so I don't even bother cutting them out. This service puts them right on my Kroger card.

do you use the same site? shortcuts.com? or do you use Krogers site, I also signed
up at Frys, which is my local Krogers I spent way too much time today searching
for coupons, but I'll get the hang of it soon.

Yes, I use http://www.shortcuts.com for the coupons. It's loaded directly on my Kroger card. Of the list of stores, Krogers is the only one in my area.

those that use the Krogers card, it also works on Frys and King Soopers and City Market.
If your traveling in other towns and you don't see Krogers, look for those stores. Colorado has King Soopers and City Market and Arizona has Frys. They are all owned
by the same outfit.

I've shopped at City Market in Pagosa Springs CO for years but always thought it was just a local owned store, shows what I know :roll:

How do you download from the computer to your store card? I guess I'm missing something. Which isn't unusual! ;) Perhaps if I go check out the site I'll get it!?! :lol:

when you sign up on the website, there is a drop down menu and you pick your card
you have, then a place to fill in the number from your card, or some have key tags,
mine is a key tag. Then when you look at the coupons they offer, if you want one
you click on it to download it to your card. Now, from shortcuts I went to the "Other stores" tab and then clicked on Frys and downloaded coupons from there also and then
I went into the tab that sad P&G esaver I think it was and downloaded coupons from
there as well, it actually had the best coupons I though. Then I got an email confirming
the download, it was about an hour later.
Oh...you also have to sign up at each of those sites.
