It’s simple math: more coupons = more savings. If you’re already clipping, printing and downloading coupons, the next step on the road to coupon riches is the Ibotta coupon app. It’s a free download available for iPhones and Droids, and it can be used in conjunction with other coupons.

How Ibotta Works:

Before you head to the store, you scroll through the current product offers, and select the ones that you want (you can also watch videos, look up recipes and complete other tasks to boost your earnings). Then, you shop at one of the 35 stores where the app works (places like CVS, Target and Walmart). After you’ve made your purchase, you send them a picture of your receipt, and they credit your account for the offers that you redeemed. Once you have at least $5 in earnings, you can request to have the money sent to your PayPal account, and from there you can do whatever you want with it – buy more groceries, save up for a vacation, stick it in your emergency fund. The choice is yours.

How to Maximize Your Ibotta Earnings:

As I already mentioned briefly, Ibotta can be used in conjunction with other coupons. That means you can use a manufacturer and a store coupon for the same item to achieve the rare triple stack; or you could get really crazy, and add SavingsStar to the mix for a quadruple stack! Just think of all the freebies and moneymakers you could snag with four coupons in play. It’s couponing at its best!

Where to Get the App:

Keep an eye out for Post cereal coupons when you’re at the grocery store this week. My Kroger had a tear pad of coupons attached to a freestanding display of Great Grains cereal. The coupons are for $1 off of fresh fruit when you buy a participating box of Post cereal, so this is a great opportunity to snag some free fruit.

I bought six boxes of cereal with coupon, and got $6 worth of fruit for free. Can’t argue with a deal like that!

Yesterday was a good day. I headed to CVS armed with loads of coupons, and came home with lots of great deals. Here’s a breakdown of my haul …

Store 1:

• I combined a coupon with an ECB deal to get a free bottle of Nivea shave gel and a free bottle of Nivea after-shave for dh
• I used a free Coke 12-pack coupon that I got from CokeRewards to buy a case of Mello-Yello for myself (my one and only vice)
• I snagged three boxes of Multi-Grain Cheerios. After ECBs, coupons and a SavingStar deal, I got them for $1.33 a box
• The Christmas clearance had finally gone 75% off (woo hoo!), so I snagged three Ferrero Rocher Christmas trees ($2.25 each) and two 5-packs of Lindt Chocolate bears ($.99 each)

Total spent after applying some ECBs that I had: $5.58

Total savings: $39.07

Store 2:

• The signs on the shelves said that Christmas stuff was 50% off, but I scanned a few things, and discovered it was actually 75% off! This store was better stocked than the first one, and far less crowded. I scored a three-tiered shoe rack for $4.99 (I have one just like it that I paid $30 for), a maze globe ($2.49), eight boxes of fancy crackers for $.99 each, two bags of dark chocolate Hershey’s Kisses (free after coupons), and four bags of Hershey’s Nuggets ($.44 each after coupon)
• I also picked up a Good n’Natural granola bar (free after coupon) that I forgot to get at the first store

Total spent after applying the ECBs that I earned at the first store, plus a couple more: $5.86

Total savings: $82.82!

Store 3:

• I didn’t get over to the third store until late in the afternoon, but they still had what I was after! I snagged 10 bags of Hershey’s Kisses for free after coupons and two more for $.44 each after coupon

Total spent: $1.89 (mostly tax)

Total savings: $47.00

Overall spending: $13.33

Overall savings: $168.89

So what am I going to do with all of that candy?

I wait for the after-Christmas sales and buy all of our candy for the year. We aren’t big junk food eaters, so this haul really lasts us the year. Just a single Hershey’s Kiss in my kids’ lunchboxes and they’re happy. I didn’t get as many Ferrero Rochers as I’d like, so I’ll be on the prowl for more of those after Valentine’s Day. Otherwise we’re done with our candy shopping for the year.

Other Items I’ve picked up during the after-Christmas sales this year

• Chocolate chips
• Almonds, reduced to $.99 a bag for great big bags
• M&Ms for use in trail mix, $.24 a bag
