Charmin Coupon Experience

Featured

These days, it seems like everybody is going crazy about extreme couponing.  People are fighting like savages to get coupons for the most obscure products and stores nobody has ever heard of.  I’m all for saving money with coupons, but let me tell you my focus: I look for coupons on products I use every day.  Getting a voucher that let’s you buy 19 cases of some soft drink and get the 20th free?  Come on, get real.  Tooth paste, toilet paper, make-up, these are the things I’m concentrating on, because this is where the real money can be saved. Day after day, week after week, the savings for those everyday items adds up fast.

Right now, finding a 24 roll package of Charmin Ultra Soft toilet paper for about $12.97 is a really good deal. That’s right at $.54 per roll. The last time I went to the store, I bought this package for $6.49 (plus tax). Here’s what I did:

I traded a diaper coupon to a lady for two manufacturer’s coupons for Charmin. I don’t have kids, and didn’t need the other coupon. I could’ve sold it, but bartering actually saves me time, and time is money. The manufacturer’s coupons were for $2 off any purchase of their product. No other exclusions, except the expiration date (which was still good). I also found a printable Charmin coupon (I’ll provide you with the source in another post), which was buy one pack of Charmin, get one free. These are pretty rare, but if you know where to luck, you can score one. I took these to a retailer who allows customers to double the value of their coupons. So normal price for 2x packages of 24 roll was $12.97 x 2 or $25.94. Then take $2 off each package, and double that per the store’s policy, so $25.94 – $4 = $21.94. Then buy one, get one free, the store allowed me to pay for one package at $12.97 and get the other free. Two packages for $12.97 means each one cost me $6.49.

Now, I can’t get that kind of deal all the time. Sometimes I do better, sometimes I do worse.

Printable Charmin Coupons

There’s a reason that Charmin toilet paper is priced in the premium segment of the toilet paper world. This isn’t some see-through, wimpy stuff, it’s premium, consumers understand that, and they are – for the most part- willing to pay for it. In order to save money, you’re going to have to find some coupons to slap down on the counter during checkout.

Sometimes it seems like my household uses up so much toilet paper that we can’t keep up. Seriously, do the kids think this stuff is free? If I just buy the little four-roll pack of Charmin, it only seems to last about one day. Maybe that’s an exaggeration, but it sure goes fast. Depending on how much you buy, printable coupons can really make a difference. Finding Charmin coupons is a big help when it comes to my budget every week. Here are some tips on finding them…

Obviously, the best way to get printable Charmin coupons is to visit this website. As often as possible, I will keep it updated with the latest valid coupons, and more importantly, I will provide you with all of the information necessary for you to find them on your own. Using the Internet, which is a great resource for finding various coupons, I’m sure we’ll be successful.

Make absolutely sure you don’t overlook the Sunday paper. Newspapers across the country are hurting for revenue these day. Part of it is because fewer companies and individuals are paying them for classifieds (instead they are using free outlets like craigslist). But a subscription to the Sunday paper is pretty convenient, since it saves you from having to go out and get it every Sunday morning, and it’s a bit cheaper than buying an issue at a time. Also, tell your family or your close friends to help you clip coupons. If they don’t want to just pass them to you, maybe you can trade. If your friend needs toothpaste, and you have a great coupon, and you need toilet paper, and she has a good one, then bingo you two are all set for a trade.

The grocery store is a great place to check for coupons or specials. Some grocers will post their weekly circulars just inside the entrance to their store. They will tend to put coupons in little holders (you know those cool electronic things that spit another coupon out every time you pull one?) in the aisles themselves. So keep your head up and watch for them! It’s not unheard of to see coupons attached to the product itself where you can get instant savings. That’s just as good as a coupon you print from home.

Sometimes is kind of feast or famine. By that I mean, you may find too many coupons one right after the other, with expiration dates that force you to buy more Charmin than you need. My advice is to go for it. Stockpile that toilet paper, and try to get the good deals while you can. This isn’t like milk or bread, the toilet paper will keep and you know you’ll eventually use it.

I will always post the Charmin coupons that I find on this website (some of them will be printable). If what you are looking for isn’t here, check back because there’s new stuff coming out somewhere every few days. I will eventually get around to creating a mailing list, so that when I find new deals I can email you and keep you up to date. Use the Carter’s coupons, save money on baby goods, and stock up. Enjoy shopping and looking for deals, sometimes it’s half the fun!
