Coupon Websites

Go to Walletpop.com and click on their "fantastic freebies" on the left side of the page. They often have great free stuff, free samples, etc., and they usually go straight to the site that is giving out the free stuff. You can then sign up at the site for coupons, or newsletters or samples or whatever. I have found that doing the surveys in order to get the coupons is SOOO not worth it, because you usually have to complete a million surveys, and all you end up with is a flooded mailbox. Its not worth having to go and "unsubscribe" to all those things you filled out. If they ask for your phone number, they WILL call your house and try to solicite something.
Oh, and go to StartSampling.com, they also have samples, but you have to watch where you are directed to, because sometimes they will send you to a site like coolsavings, which will have you doing surveys again.
Good luck.

I use coupons.com and have no problems. It's been a while so I'm not sure if I filled anything out or not but I haven't filled anything out since. I've noticed that the coupons are similar on multiple sites so I just continue to use coupons.com since it's in my tool bar. I haven't had a problem with spam. I get a monthly email from them telling me that the January (for example) coupons are on there. As another responder said about the full page coupons, these are not big and once you're done clicking the ones you want, they print about 3 to a page.

C., I am really new to this, I've been a mamber for awhile, but never responded to anyone, you are the first.
I have a million surveys sites and other sites I go to on a regular basis to earn points and rewards, but my favorite is MyPoints.com. They have a deal now that you can print coupons based on what your family is and what is available each day, I think, I haven't really used the coupon thing so much. I check out the websites they offer and buy things through links in their site and earn points, I've gotten several cards for $25 to $50 of free food at Chili's mainly, and Home Depot rewards cards, it's a great site. You should check it out, sorry not too familiar with coolsavings.com, I might go check it out.

Hi C. I use coupons.com and like others said be careful about coolsavings.com. If you like getting freebies, try bzzagent.com. They send you free stuff, coupons to use & pass out and then you get points to use for gift cards. I also like to get cash for surveys, so I use surveyspot.com. You can pick and choose the surveys you want to do and you get money for completing them. Good luck.

Sounds like a trap, I went on to the same place and decided not to go any further I get enough junk already.

I have found that any survey which says "get a $500 Target giftcard" or something along those lines means, you will get the giftcard once you have completed special offers. There are however many online survey sites that do pay you in cash or points to redeem for cash by doing their surveys. I did a review on the whole thing and other ways to make money at my website http://www.homemakeretc.com/category/ways-to-make-money.html
You can also find online coupons directly from the manufacturers of your favorite foods. I've signed up at Betty Crocker and get coupons for the foods I actually use.

I have done what you are talking about and all I got was a bunch of junk mail. I also felt like the amount of information I have to keep filling out wasn't worth my time. I wouldn't recommend those deals. I am, like you, a coupon user. I am a member of www.thegrocerygame.com. I think that even if you are not a member, you can access online coupons. The grocery game helps you use coupons from the newspaper in combination with store sales and in-store coupons--more bang for your buck. I have also found www.couponmom.com very useful. There is a feature on that website where you can search for a coupon...for example, I am always in search of Pampers coupons and it will tell me what week and what coupon insert to look in from the Sunday paper. (I keep my coupons from the paper filed by each Sunday's date). Also, I have found some great coupons from www.afullcup.com. These are all sites that I trust and haven't gotten on any junk mail lists. Hope this helps.

I agree with all of the other comments. You can also find great coupons on CouponMom.com without getting any spam. By the way also beware of Eversave.com it is similar to coolsavings and you usually find the same coupons offered on other websites like coupon.com.

Hi C.,

Most websites when asking for that info is a marketing ploy. If it ask for any kind of information don't do it. You will get so much spam and so much junk mail and so many telemarketers on your phone. The best way to find out if a website is good is use a dummy email, if you get a ton of junk you will know and never use your home address. Be careful it only takes one click for your info to be spread on the www. The survey on coolsavings will just keep taking you to another and collect your info at the same time no matter if you back track and it will lead you to either a credit card or something you will have to purchase. Its a dead end basically and by the time you get there your info has been sent to over 100 markerts. So just be careful and use a dummy email. Good luck!

I quit using coolsavings for those reasons and now I use couponsurfer.com and also log onto Krogers website and it will allow you to download Proctor and Gamble coupons to your Kroger card and go to shortcuts.com and download coupons.

Hi C.,
I would shy away- eventually there is going to be something at the end of this survey that is going to want you to purchase something- and that something is most likely something you would never use or need- I have found most are a waste of time.
clipping coupons is great- I do that myself- but I think you can go to the specific site- like Betty Crocker or Pillsbury or the like and get your specific coupon tht you would use instead of using the online survey stuff- These have never been very successful for me and then I do get a lot of junk mail where I eventually have to block the sender.
Good luck

Good Morning C.;

I will just say from my experience, they are not safe and once you log on to one of them you will start receiving emails from all sorts of things!
If you like to get emails from companies with coupons, then
all you have to do is log on to one of them!
Good Luck and Pleasant Shopping,

I know a really good website that my friend had referred me to called mypoints.com. It is legit and it also offers free coupons you get points for using. Everyday it will send you emails to look into that might interest you and even if you don't accept the offer you usually get 5 points per email and at least once a week you do a survey and you get points whether or not you qualify for the survey. So far we've accrued over 6000 points and redemmed for gift cards and such. Look into it, you might like it.

Don't waste your time. I did this a couple of years ago and all it did was increase the junk mail in my inbox!

HI, I didn't have time to read all the responses, but I log onto www.mypoints.com all the time. Yo earn points for just about ererything & then you can redeem them for giftcards for local restaurants, stores, etc. It's really great. It doesn't cost a thing. I recommend you at least check it. Good luck & God Bless!

C., I signed up on several coupon websites last year and it was not worth it at all. The only thing I got out of it were a bunch of unwanted emails wanting me to sign up for this and that. It was about 3 months of that when my computer completely crashed and we were told that even with all our spyware and protection we had on the computer someone still got thru and it makes me wonder if it was not the coupon sites. Not only that, but is it really worth having to do a survey everytime you want to check on coupons to save a few cents. Hope this helps

To everyone who will listen to me:

I do web design & have for 9 years. Be VERY careful of any website you sign up for. Most are only a way to market & sell good email addresses. The best way to sign up with any website is to create an email address JUST for that site. Delete if the spam starts. I teach my customers how to set up forwarders on their sites.

Some of these coupon sites require you to print a full page coupon which uses more ink than it saves you money.

Mysurvey.com is a site where you can do surveys for points, then you can turn the points in for cash or merchandise.

You have to do a bunch to get enough points, but the more surveys you take the more they offer to you so it goes pretty quickly. And they all take very little time.

And you can go directly to the website of whatever brand you're wanting coupons for and see what they're offering.
