4 Ways to Get Freebies and Reduce Your Grocery Bill

Guest post alert! We’re excited to have Roland Karim of Coupon Pro sharing his tips for scoring discounts and freebies at the grocery store. The opinions contained in this post are the author’s own and are not necessarily those of BradsDeals. 

If you love saving money, you probably use coupons or stick to buying items when they’re on sale but did you know you can save a TON of money by scoring freebies at your local grocery store. It’s simple, fun and rewarding!

How to find and use freebies to reduce your grocery bill:

Take Advantage of Your Grocery Store Club Card

Sign up for a club card at favorite grocery store. Many grocery store chains like Kroger (& affiliates), Safeway (& affiliates) and ShopRite often send their members free offers that can be digitally downloaded on to your card to be redeemed for free stuff. Just last month, Vons (a Safeway affiliate store) sent me two free offers: FREE Knorr Roasters and a FREE Bag of Mann’s Veggie Mac-n-Cheese.

Use Coupons

Print coupons at Coupons.com and CouponNetwork.

Popular grocery chains like Publix allow you to use a Manufacturer Coupon AND a Store Coupon towards one item. Reference your stores coupon policy to find out if they allow it. Using two coupons is better than using one and often leads to a freebie!

“Like” Your Favorite Brands

Follow your favorite brands on Facebook and Twitter. Companies often send out free samples and exclusive offers for their fans and followers. One of my favorites is free coffee samples!

TIP: I suggest creating a secondary no-cost email account for freebies, so your primary email doesn’t fill up with newsletters. Plus, avoid any freebies that require your credit card or Social Security number.

Follow Coupon Blogs and Websites

Bookmark two or three blogs like Coupon Pro to stay updated on all the ways you can score free groceries and to share your freebie finds with a large community!

Here are a few freebies you can grab right now:

• FREE Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks through 3/31.
• FREE Coke at ShopRite through 4/3.

Happy Shopping!
