How can I print coupons for items from Database?
Lois look for the link that is listed under the source column. It will usually say the location- like Frenchs.com- click and that takes you to the location of the coupon.
I can’t print the coupons either. I’ve tried clicking the source column location and I get nothing. Please Help!!!
You don’t want to click the source column, you want to click the word “printable” that appears on the coupon row. If the coupon does not say printable that means it is a coupon from another source and you just follow the line to see where the coupon is located.
I can’t get the “My List” box to go away. It appears on top of all other items. Thanks.
Click My List again and it goes away
boxtops doesn’t have a ziploc coupon.
I t can’t seem to get to the printable coupons and I am clickng on the printable word.
Sorry Hilary I can’t understand what the problem would be. If you check the headers for each column they look like this:
Description Value Expiration Source
You want to click whatever link is listed under source. You do not want to click on the column that says Blogging Format on the far right. That won’t do anything.
Same problem here. When I click on the coupon source it takes me to a blank page.
Hi, girl! Just wanted to tell you that I appreciate all your knowledge and you have helped me so much….I am just now really learning about clipping coupons from the computer……and your site has helped me so much! My questions to you is that you have been letting us all know about magazine special offers out there……..if I order the magazine, I am concerned that after the terrific offer, that they will renew me later at what ever price they choose and just take it from my debit account since they will already have the number after the script has run out……or do they have to notify you and give you the chance to cancel. Thanks again for all that you do:) Faye
Faye, you won’t get renewed unless you choose an auto renewal subscription from Amazon. Otherwise there is no obligation but you will get the standard notices in the mail once it is time. I ignore those. With magazines and newspapers I recommend NOT ever giving them your real phone number. Those people seem to be more aggressive than a bill collector so no matter where you order from I never give them my real phone number.
I just want to say THANK YOU for all the hard work you put into this website. You save me soooo much time with the database alone, not to mention the deals you share. Thanks a million!!!
cant print either i give up says printable clicking on it and it just goes to an add now where is the coupon there
I figured out that you need to click on the column heading Source and then it changes from something like SS or RP to the word printable and then you click on the word printable and that works. Some that I saw said all you. that means it is in the all you magazin and is not printable. you need to get the actual magazine.
I am gettin gso frustrated. I know I have the red plum and smart source inserts for the date(s) that the database is listing them in, but when I go to pull out that coupon, its not there! Do the inserts differ from region to region? Or should they pretty much be the same nationwide? I have had this happen to me 3 or more times now and have never actually found the coupon that I am searching for.
Then I spend hours trying to find a coupon online for that product and sometimes I get lucky and other times I don’t. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sharla
Yes Sharla they do vary from region to region. You can read more here:

Hi Charlene,
Your link for kraft dressing is not working. I looked up the q in the database and got coupon network, but I don’t see it there either. Have they taken it away?
Charlene,
Sorry – replied to wrong post. Please disregard, and I’ll reply in correct post.
Susan,
Thank you for letting me know. I fixed the link. It is coupon network and it is listed under Kraft. It is on the left side for me and I had to scroll down just a tiny bit to see the coupon.

How do I know what coupons I have on hand after looking at the store circulars? Must I go through EVERY coupon I have stored? I have not read how this part works yet. For instance, I might want to use a coupon for an item I might not normally buy. What is a quick way to find out if I have a matching coupon for an item that is on sale this week? I have not yet read how this is accomplished.
