There is a hot new couponing strategy that will allow you to rake in boatloads of free products for your growing stockpile & sometimes even get paid to do it. This Secret Strategy is not controversial but may not last long at the retailer once more people start taking advantage of it. This new strategy is PRICE MATCHING Online Retailers @ Walmart; most especially AMAZON.com
Here is how it works. You add items from amazon in your amazon shopping cart and pull it up on your amazon app that you have downloaded to your smart phone either android or apple. You tell the cashier, I have some price match item before they start ringing them up. Show them each item. & the price in your shopping cart. The items have to be same size, color, variation & brand. Where you will get freebies & money makers is from the stipulation in the policy FAQ's that walmart sent out to its stores. "You dont have to pay shipping price or fee associated with item, just the price." THIS IS HUGE!! As you know many times items on amazon will be listed for $.01 - $1.00 when the retail price is $5.00 - $15.00 or more because they charge you an arm and a leg in shipping & handling to make up for it.
