Depending on the type of cell phone you have there are different options on how to get coupons on your phone. Here is how to get these coupons.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Via text.
    Some retail stores are starting to turn to text messaging to send out great deals and coupons to their products. To start receiving text messages from a certain store be sure to check if they offer it. Many of these stores will allow you to sign up by internet to begin receiving your text messages. All you have to do is to show the text to the cashier of the store to receive your discount or your offer. Most of these texts will have a coupon code on it for the employee to enter.

  2. Step 2

    Search the web.
    If your phone is internet capable then spend some time browsing the web for coupons. There are thousands of these websites where you can find money saving coupons for some of your favorite retail stores. So instead of paying top dollar for something, see if you can get it for a discounted rate. Some stores will want the coupons to be printed out, so make sure you are looking for paperless coupons when searching.

  3. Step 3

    Iphone applications.
    There are some apps that will search for coupons to be sent directly to your iphone. Some of these apps cost money to download but there are many free ones that have been released as well. So before you start investing money to save money, see if you can get coupons for free. If you do not find a coupon application that you would like to use, do not get discouraged. People add more applications all the time, so eventually there might be one you desire.
