Clarification for newbies

I've had a few questions that I thought I would share the answers to with everyone... it will help you to understand this "couponese". Sorry... sometimes I just forget I am speaking a foreign language! LOL

Blinkie - a coupon holder attached to a shelf or cold case in the store that blinks and when you take the coupon out it makes a little noise and then dispenses another coupon,,, a hint about those... they dispense 2 and then wait until you are not standing in front of it OR a set amount of time before it dispenses 2 more... so be patient if you want more than 2..

OOP - This is your Out Of Pocket expense after coupons

Register Rewards - Usually from Walgreens this is an extra slip/coupon that prints out based upon something you bought - it's a manufacturer's coupon good on your next or a future order for money off. Be careful though, they DO expire...

ECBs - From CVS - Extra Care Bucks which is money off of your next or future order only good at CVS that prints out on your receipt. Be careful with these too, they DO expire too.

Tear Pad - This is exactly what it sounds like... a pad of coupons that you can tear off to take 1... or 4 LOL

FLIPS - Food Lion Internet Printable Coupons

Wine Tags - Coupons hanging around the neck of a bottle
