If you remember this calendar then refer back to Sunday Coupon Review found here:
 
http://www.sundaycouponpreview.com/
 
I go to the Sunday Coupon Preview site to see which coupons will be in the paper for that week usually the coupons are listed by Wednesday and I get the notification via email.  If there is little reason for me to justify buying a paper for the insert then I just use
 
http://www.couponsthingsbydede.com/  (Yes! sign up. Yes they offer special coupon codes to lower your cost. Shipping is extremely fast and worth it.)
 
This is how I plan my shopping around HEB, Walmart (rarely) and Walgreens sales.  I either buy multiple papers for the inserts or actual clipped coupons.
 
NOTE:  Always check the papers you buy, I have found some weekends with 'high-value' coupons missing from the Corpus Christi paper but inserted in the San Antonio paper.  Or vice versa.......  Another thing I have noticed is say Smart Source will be totally missing from both papers but Red Plum shows up. 
 
I will be back later to tell you about more 'Rebates' and which sites are good for online manufacturers coupons and samples. 

Remember my goal is $80 a week for a family of four to include all drinks and balanced meals complete with either fresh or frozen produce. (I will buy coupons throughout the year as needed; I already have a $50 budget from rebates I have just recieved from Kelloggs, SC Johnson, Kraft in the last week.)

Talk to you later,
