Shoppers use coupons to save money. The Sunday newspaper has many food

coupons. You can cut the coupons out and take them to the grocery store.

Here's how to use food coupons:

1.) Make a list of what you need to buy at the grocery store.

2.) Look for coupons in newspapers, magazines, on the Internet, and in stores.

3.) Then, organize the coupons according to product type or date of expiration.

4.) When you go to the checkout stand, give the coupons to the cashier.

A family that uses coupons will save about $5.20 to $9.60 per week. That is

$270 to $499 per year.
