I started getting Shop Smart magazine that I got through some $5/year deal a few months ago. It’s by the people who make Consumer Reports magazine, which I like, so I decided to give it a try. Well, I think it’s completely underrated because it’s amazing!! I’ve honestly learned so much in the 2 that I have read so far. One of my favorite articles was about shopping apps that led me to download Snip Snap and Shopular.
I was at Target yesterday and I was getting shampoo and paper towels and I found Target coupons for both and they worked! All without having to print them out on my computer (which is so annoying because you have to download that software). So this was so exciting! To redeem it, it just displays the barcode on your full screen, so it’s crisp and clear for the cashier. And it’s not some bad quality photo someone took. The only downfall is that they don’t have manufacturer’s coupons to share yet… you can scan the ones you have and store them there, but you can’t get them from other people. I read that they are working on this, so hopefully soon!
So when you first start you choose all the stores you shop at to show up. Although this has a lot, I found that it didn’t have all the coupons out there though. For example outlet store coupons that are listed on this site were missing. But overall I think it’s pretty cool and has a lot of information to check while you’re on the go and get some extra savings!
