Endorse and Earn 10% Back on Your Purchases

Do you shop at Fresh & Easy , Target , Walmart, Babies R Us, Kohl's,  Home Depot or any of the other stores listed below?  Do you ever dine at Chick-fil-A, Chipotle Mexican Grill, McDonald's, or grab some coffee at Starbucks?  If the answer is yes then keep reading for a way you can earn 10% back from those purchases.

Have you heard of Endorse yet?  I just learned about it not too long ago and I am so excited to share this opportunity with you.

Here is how it works.  You log on to the Endorse application on Facebook and Endorse the products and stores you love.  You shop at the stores you Endorse and buy the products you Endorse and save the receipts from the stores.  Endorse mails you postage paid envelopes, you collect the receipts and mail them to Endorse.  Once you reach $25 they will mail you a check. Endorse calls the process of sending in your receipts a POP which is short for "proof of purchase."  A POP is important because it is the proof that ties your product endorsements to purchases at stores.

It gets even better though you can refer your friends to Endorse the products and stores you Endorse. If 5 friends Endorse your Endorsement, and then buy and POP, yours is free.

If you would like to follow any of the stores or products I Endorse you can click on the links below.  If you are not comfortable following my Endorsements you can go straight to the Facebook Endorse application.

I just sent my first set of receipts in and they sent me an email to confirm that they had received my POPs (receipts).

Recyclebank - Earn Rewards for Taking "Green' Actions

Recyclebank 
I am concerned about the environment, I'm not overly crazy about it but I try to do what I can.  Like shutting lights off when I leave the room.  I guess I was raised in a household that did not have much money most of the time so that was something I learned early on.   I also shut the water off when I brush my teeth.  I'm kind of crazy about recycling too. We have separate trash cans for recyclable trash, yard waste and non-recyclable trash.  I try to put as much as I can into the recycling trash.  If you are interested in learning about ways you can help the environment keep reading.

Since I am concerned about the environment, I was excited to learn about Recyclebank. When you join Recyclebank you can earn points for doing various actions like taking quizzes for example.  Their website says "You take small actions. We give you everyday rewards. The world gets greener. "  I really love the idea that you can be rewarded for taking small steps to be "greener".   They have a variety of rewards you can earn like coupons and store discounts.  Join Recyclebank today and start earning points.

For other rewards sites check out my Rewards Sites page.

Reward Sites- Earn Free Giftcards and Even Money

If you are looking for a way to earn some free gift cards and even money for reading emails then check out my new Reward Sites Page.

If you get started now you can use the gift cards towards Christmas gifts.

Let me know if you have any questions about these programs.

Lesson 2 - Organize Your Coupons

There are many ways to organize your coupons.  I currently use a plastic box with a snap on lid.  I purchased the box at Staples with Staples Rewards of course.  I used to used the coupon binder method and found that too difficult to keep up with so I switched to the box method.

This is how I organized my coupon box there really is no right or wrong way to do this.  You can get as detailed as you like.  Here is what I did.

I made dividers using some thin cardboard paper I had.  These dividers are the main sections to break out the coupons into.  Below is a list of the sections I created:

• Baby
• Frozen
• Cold
• Snacks
• Cereal
• Canned
• Food
• Hygiene
• Paper
• Cleaning
• Misc
• Medicines
• Store

For each main section I have envelopes labeled to further separate the coupons in each main section.  I used envelopes that were free after Staples Rewards.  Here a list of each main section with a listing of the individual envelopes that I made.

Baby:  Diapers and Wipes, Medicines, Food, Lotions & Diaper Cream, and Miscellaneous

Frozen:  Ice cream & desserts, bread, Breakfast Foods, Mexican Foods, Meat, Fruit - Vegetables - Potatoes, Meals, and Pizza

Cold Foods:  lunch meats - hot dogs - bacon - Lunchables, Meat, Produce & Cold Salas Dressing, eggs - tofu, butter & whipped cream, cookies - rolls  breads, pudding & yougurt, beverage, and Cheese/cream cheese/sour cream

Snacks: Cookies, Candy, Chips, Crackers, Fruit Snacks, nuts - popcorn - beef jerky, and granola bars - protein bars - Pop Tarts

Cereal:  General Mills, Kellogg's, and Other

Canned:  Tomato Products - Spaghetti Sauce, Meat, Vegetables - Olives - Beans - Fruit, and Soup - Chilli 

Food:  Pasta - Rice - Hamburger Helper - Potato Mixes, Condiments, Asian Foods, Bread & Tortillas, Breakfast, Mexican, Spices/Seasonings, Jelly - Peanut Butter, Salad Dressing - Salad Add Ins, Baking, and Beverages.

Hygiene:  face/make up, feminine, lotion, soap - body wash - hand soap, Toothpaste, Toothbrushes - Floss, Mouthwash, Deodorant, Hair, and Shaving.

Paper Products:  Cups/Plates/Ziploc bags/Trash Bags / Foil / Plastic Wrap, Paper Towels - Napkins, Tissue, and Toilet Paper

Cleaning:  Laundry, Air Fresheners, Dish washing, Greenworks & Other Green Cleaners, Pest Control, Lysol Products, Scrubbing Bubbles, Windex, and Miscellaneous

Misc:  Clothing, Batteries, Light bulbs, Water Pitchers, Dog Food, and Office Supplies

Medicines:  Cold & Allergy, Fiber & Stomach Remedies, Pain Relievers, Misc, First Aid & Itch Remedies & Creams, Vitamins & Other Supplements, and Eye Care

Store:  Target, Ralphs, CVS, Vons, Babies R Us, and Rite Aid

So once you have made a box you can cut coupons from your newspaper inserts or print from my coupon page or my coupon sources page and fill your coupon box.

Here is a list of a few helpful hints about cutting and organizing your coupons:

• You do not have to cut every single coupon from the newspaper inserts you get.
• You can cut only the coupons you know you will use.
• You can store your inserts by date (see pictures below for how I do this).
• You can search for a particular coupon by using my Coupon Database page.
• You can visit Coupon Cleanout website to see if all the coupons in your insert have expired.  Expired coupons can be used by Military families for up to 6 months past the coupon's expiration date. This website has links to sites where you can find out about donating your expired coupons.

Write the date on each insert

One Folder Per Date

Inserts Stored by Date

Getting Started With Coupons Lesson 1- Get Coupons

If you are interested in saving money then keep reading.  I am going to outline some steps to help you get started with coupons.  This first lesson is all about how and where to get coupons.

The first thing you need to do in order to save money with coupons is get coupons.  There are many ways to get coupons. Here is a list of some common ways you can get coupons:

• Get your local newspaper on Sundays (no coupons on holiday weekends)
• Print coupons from your computer
• Find coupons on product packages
• Find coupons at the store
• All You Magazine (can purchase at Walmart or subscribe online)
• Contact companies and and ask for coupons
• Sign for Electronic Coupon websites

Here is more detailed information about these options:

The Sunday newspaper 

In my experience this is the best place to get coupons because most weekends there will be anywhere from 1 to 4 coupon inserts.  In my area the newspaper costs $1.50 if you pick it up at the store. You can also get some newspapers delivered to your home at a discounted rate by visiting this website Discounted Newspapers.  I just paid $62.10 for a year subscription to the Orange County Register.  Last year I saved around $6,000 with coupons so paying $62.10 for a newspaper subscription is worth it.  So far this year I have saved $2,729. If you don't want to get a subscription ask around maybe your friends, neighbors or family get the Sunday paper but don't use the coupons.  I have found coupons at the car wash and even Starbucks.

      Main Insert Brands in the Sunday Paper

• Red Plum (RP for short)
• Smart Source (SS for short)
• General Mills (GM for short)
• Proctor & Gamble (PG for short)

Printing from your computer

There are many sources for printing coupons from your computer.

• You can visit my coupon page to print coupons.
• You can also visit my coupon sources page this page has links to Red Plum , Catalina Network, Kellogg's coupons and electronic coupons (more on this later).
• Facebook pages for products (usually only available for a limited time)
• Company Websites (usually only available for a limited time)
• Target Website has coupons as well go to this page Target Coupons
• If you are looking for organic product coupons you can visit Mambo Sprouts and sign up for their newsletter.

Find coupons on product packages
Sometimes you can find coupons on the inside of packages or even on the outside of packages (these are often called peelies).


Find coupons at the store
Coupons can be found in dispensers attached to the shelf. Sometimes people leave coupons on the shelf if they decide not to use them.

All You Magazine (can purchase at Walmart or subscribe online)
You can subscribe online by going here All You Magazine.

Contact companies and and ask for coupons
If you really love a product contact the company and let them know.  Sometimes they will send you coupons for your comments or even if you have had a problem with a company they will send you coupons for your troubles.


Sign for Electronic Coupon websites 
If you visit my Coupon Sources Page you can sign up for Savings Star and Cellfire.  These sites allow you to add coupons to your shopper loyalty card.  They work with a variety of store loyalty cards like CVS (my favorite store).  Saving Star Coupons can also be used with paper coupons on the same item so they can really help you save.  In my experience Cellfire coupons can not be used with paper coupons but this policy may vary by store.  You can also visit Shortcuts this is another website that offers electronic coupons that can be loaded to your shopper loyalty card.  If you are not interested in clipping coupons these sites were made just for you.

If you are looking for a particular coupon you can visit my Coupon Database page and search for the coupon you are looking for.
