Target Store Coupons
eCoupons – These are coupons that you can load directly to your store club card.
Catalina Coupons – You know those extra strips of paper you get with every receipt? Those are Catalina Coupons and often very valuable! They are issued randomly at time from manufacturers and other times they are a part of a promotion where if you buy a certain # or value of participating products you get a X amount of $s.
Peelies – Found stuck to the product itself, designed to be used with that specific item at the time of purchase.
Manufacturer’s Websites - If I have a particular item that I love, often times I will simply go to their website to see if they have any coupons to offer. If not, then I will find their “Contact Us” link and ask for some, never hurts to ask! Often times I get very valuable coupons in the mail, just for asking!
Tearpad Coupons – Simply a pad of coupons that you can tear off from, typically stuck onto the front of a product display.
Blinkies – The little machines that spit out coupons and has a red blinking light.

Julia,
I took your class in Dec. but was the one who showed up late. Maybe I missed this, but what does “rr” mean? I see it when you are using coupons at Walgreens, CVS, etc. Am I missing something? I see the reference above, but nothing about rr’s. Please help. Loved the class, now I just need to sit down and get started on saving.
thanks,
Tracey
Is there a paper that is better than the others for the Sunday inserts?
Typically I would say the SF Chronicle (if you’re in my area) but they have raised their rates to $3 per Sunday paper, I am not happy about that! Actually last Sunday for the first time I preferred the Contra Costa Times, the coupons were much better I didn’t buy any Chronicles.

Pretty sure its RR Register Rewards, the name for catalina type rewards from Walgreens. CVS they’re called EVBs or something, extra value bucks. Basically free money you can spend on your next visit or next transaction.
