Save on couponing

Welcome to this week's Frugal Follies Frugal Tip!

Couponing saves lots of money... but it costs money, too.

Here's a post I did last year that covers how to save on couponing:  Combatting the Cost of Couponing.  Check it out!

I'm glad I reviewed it, because I've been breaking one of my suggestions.  I've been lazy when I print out coupons, and I haven't been making sure that I'm printing coupons on the backs of previously-used paper.  I'm definitely wasting paper that way!

Note: don't print out coupons on the back of paper on which you printed other unused coupons.  If the coupons are from the same site, the coupons might line up, so that you would have a double-sided coupon.  That could cause some confusion at the register if the clerk rings up the wrong side!

What expenses do you incur because of couponing?  How do you cut costs?
