Any Luck With Online Coupons

Does anyone have any luck with online grocery coupons at your grocery stores? I have printed a bunch from couponmom.com took them to my local grocer and to my suprise they do not take them so I called our local Wal-Mart Supercenter and they don't take them either. Our Kroger store here does not take them as well. The only response from these stores was the sites are either does not exist, or they don't pay out and they are easy to duplicate. I know every store has its on rules but just the other day on the Today show they mentioned the web site couponmom.com as being a very good place to get coupons with out having to give out all of your personal info. Am I not understanding something about this coupons or is this just a scam? Anyone else run into this problem. Since I have come up with celiac disease I am trying to find ways to save on money for this.

Thanks

This is not an answer to what you asked but another possible avenue. I called a few companies lately to inquire about their products and they sent me quite a few coupons for their products.

I print and use coupons regularly from coupons.com. I've used at Safeway and Fred Meyer. They are manufacture coupons, so they should be able to be used just like a regular coupon.

Thanks for your responses. I did call a company the other day and they sent me coupons to as well. The confusing part is when I called our local Kroger about this internet coupons they told me the do not take any at all b/c these coupon companies are not paying out but the funny thing was when I was checking Krogers sales at for the week the had a coupon link on there to get and free coupons to be used at Kroger. They are not labeled Kroger coupons but they title page says to be used at your next Kroger trip. I will try to see if I can use them today. I have to do some shopping so we will see.

I didn't use online coupons but still had trouble. I received coupons in the mail from 2 well know companies and the store I took them to said they were online coupons and wouldn't take them. <_<

I have also successfully used coupons from coupons.com. By the way, if you use Velveeta there is a $1 off coupon. Google "Velveeta" and it will come up.

I think I have got it now. I have tried uploading my kroger card with coupons and it did take when I used it last week. They even took the computer coupons as well but these where not the advertiesed coupons like the velveta cheese ones that first appear on coupons.com. I could not get them to take it. But these where the coupons from the Kroger website. The funny thing is these computer coupons that they took come from coupons.com. I do not understand why they would not take the other but would take some from the same site. All these coupons that you print off come from coupons.com no matter what coupon site you come from. So the only thing I know to do now is load as much coupons on my Kroger Card and print off as many and just see everytime. I will probably bugg them enough with taking food back everytime I use these stores that they will either give me the discount or stop taking these altogether.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
