Do you know what a Coupon Fairy is? Have you ever played the roll of a Coupon Fairy? They’re super sweet and their goal is to bless someone else with savings! It’s simple, you leave a coupon next to the product it’s designed for and then at some point in time another shopper happens upon the coupon and SAVES money! I’ve been blessed by the Coupon Fairy and I’ve also played the Coupon Fairy before, it’s so much fun. I especially like to do it with high value coupons for products I don’t use like diapers, wipes, and formula. Remember the $10/1 Enfamil Formula Coupon, that was a fun one!
Well yesterday I found a FREE product coupon left by a Coupon Fairy at Target, it was for a FREE Full Size John Frieda Sheer Solution up to $8.99 Value! I didn’t need it so I left it there for someone else, but it inspired me once again to bless someone else with a coupon and so I’m committed to leaving at least 5 coupons each week for someone else to find.
Have you been the recipient of a Coupon Fairy coupon or have you played the Coupon Fairy before? Will you join me and play Coupon Fairy this week?

I frequently leave near expiration date coupons in stores. It is much better than throwing them away.
Apparently there are other fairies at my local Safeway, too. What fun to share the joy of saving money!

Since my family doesn’t have pets, I generally leave the pet item coupons near the products at the store. I love being able to help other families!
I also have been the recipient of a Coupon Fairy and was so blessed! Thanks to all the Coupon Fairies out there!

The assistant manager at my closest Walgreen’s clips all the coupons from the Sunday inserts and tapes them to the shelf in front of the corresponding products throughout the store. I usually don’t need the coupons, but it makes me really happy to see people getting a little “nudge” to use coupons from another coupon person! I LOVE my Walgreen’s!

I love playing coupon fairy! I have also been the recipient a couple of times and it always tickles me.

I leave coupons for baby stuff all the time especially right now since we are still receiving many coupons for baby items (baby food/formula) but my son has stopped using them. Safeway keeps giving me formula coupons for $8 off
I haven’t found any yet, but still very willing to leave them!

I do this on high value things that I can’t use. Like the formula.

I just left an extra $10 off a foodsaver vacuum sealing thing because I accidently printed two

The Claritin coupon is for $7 this week, a nice high value so I plan on leaving those at the store tomorrow since I don’t need them for myself…

I carry a small roll of clear tape in my purse to stick extra coupons directly to items. My husband made fun of me for doing it. A few days later, a coupon fairy left us a gift and my husband found it. He was so excited– and now he helps me stick coupons on stuff.
It is fun to share the wealth!
