New to couponing? Maximize your savings by price match-ups! Keep track of all your coupons and stay up-to-date on all weekly flyers to find the best deals. Sometimes you can even get items for FREE!! Visit my favourite links page at: https://amumntheoven.com/Links_3YXT.html to get access to ALL mail out coupons you can take advantage of! Also, remember that Walmart actively participates in 'price-matching' and will always acknowledge and match a competitor's lower price.
