How to Get Grocery Coupons in the Mail

If you endeavor to save money on your grocery bill by using coupons for groceries, get more discounts for the products you buy most by trying to get grocery coupons in the mail. With a little initial effort, you can regularly receive grocery discount coupons on items such as diapers, laundry detergent, food and more. Combine these with coupons you've printed off the Internet and clipped from newspaper circulars, and you'll be able to save even more. Consider these methods to get grocery coupons in the mail.

Instructions

1. Sign up for your grocery store's preferred shoppers' card. Once the store has your mailing address on file, they'll regularly send you sales circulars with free food coupons or grocery discount coupons. You may also receive packets of grocery coupons for the items you often purchase since the store can track your buying trends. Get grocery coupons in the mail from stores like Ralphs, for example, that send out packets of discounts with Rewards Club dividends each quarter.

2. Head to the websites of manufacturers that make the products you buy most. Companies such as Proctor and Gamble, Minute Maid, General Mills and Kraft, for example, allow you to sign up for special offers, email lists and newsletters and flyers that result in grocery discounts. You can also consider writing to manufacturers to request coupons. Use the customer service, contact us or request form to ask to get grocery coupons in the mail. After doing so, they'll regularly send you coupons for groceries and special offers.

3. Find limited time offers for free food coupons or coupons for groceries that will be mailed to you through websites like MomsView.com, ESmarts.com or CouponCat.net. Check the listings for current grocery discount coupons to find the ones that are delivered via snail mail.

4. Start a coupon round robin with friends. Establish a list of your friends that includes mailing addresses. Agree upon a set number, type or amount of coupons to exchange in the swap. Have the first person on the list send an envelope of grocery coupons to the second participant, then the second can send grocery discount coupons to the third and so on. Rearrange the list after each "round" so you don't always get grocery coupons in the mail from the same person.

Tips & Warnings

• If you're trying to get grocery coupons in the mail, be sure to instruct family members to let you comb through the mail before it's tossed since many grocery discount coupons and flyers easily resemble junk mail.
