Great list. The important thing is to look around. Certain coupon sites are quicker to publish current coupons than others.
Nice list, another site worth noting is http://www.mrdealfinder.com
Hi!
I’d love to chat with you if you can, send me an email, I work for FabulousSavings.com, FabulousSavings.ca, FabulousSavings.co.uk and we are dedicated to our online coupons! Please let me know what works.
Cheers
I wish I had this list years ago! Since having my new baby boy, I have had to find the best ways to save on all the new baby items, household items, the list goes on… About 2 months ago, I discovered savingswatch.com which has been such a great resource for me and my growing family. Great for discounts and rewards and the best part is you get paid a % of every purchase you make! I just wanted to add that site to your list.
I check out bradsdeals.com nearly every day. His site is well organized, and frequently updated. Here you’ll find the codes, the printables, restaurants, coupons by store, by date, AND he goes the extra mile to point out some of the exceptional deals being offered on each day. If this were the only coupon resource, it would be enough for me.
You have to include SwoopUp.com! They simply have the easiest site to use with coupons and deals that actually WORK!! It seems like most coupon sites display codes that are expired.
Oh, SwoopUp is great. Thanks!
cool
i like RetailMeNot i get many coupon for my domain in name.com

I found a new site that has tons of coupons! Thought I’d share! It’s called my promotion department. Their website is mypromotiondepartment.com
Well I can’t compete with the big companies but I have a site featuring a coupons interface that I would love to have get some more attention. It’s categorized and seperated into coupons, sweepstakes and free shipping offers driven by a network of 125+ advertisers.
Come visit and feel free to leave me some input.
