Why pay full price when I know I can get it cheaper somewhere else!

It is astounding to me to watch someone pay full price or dare I say it, even see people get over charged for items that I know I can get for a fraction of the asking price. I am capable of paying what they are asking, but why? I don't have any extenuating circumstances that push me to use coupons. I thrive from the challenge of finding the coupons online and I don't know about you but I especially enjoy getting mail that doesn't cost me anything! Then I spend a couple hours a week looking at my flyers and matching any coupons I have to sale items that make good sales, GREAT!
On average I save atleast 40% through price matching, couponing and my 10% discount (as I shop where I work). On a weekly basis the savings multiply dramatically.

Now I wish to share my findings, experiences and savings with you.

Top Resources for Couponing in Canada

For coupons sent by mail:

save.ca
websaver.ca
brandsaver.ca
gocoupons.ca
rightathome.ca
livingwell.ca
healthyshopper.ca (for organic products)

Trading coupons with your family, friends, social groups or perhaps joining a coupon train is another way to collect coupons and to share ones that you may not have use for before expiring.

For weekly flyer match ups and printable coupons:

mrsjanuary.com
Canadian coupons and Freebies Links (through Facebook)
Women's freebies (through Facebook)
Flyerland.ca
frugalshopper.ca
smartcanucks.ca

Alternative Resources

The tear pads in front of your local supermarket and in the aisles are great resources as well. Sometimes companies put coupons directly inside or on their packaging to use next time.

Another option is to write an email to the company directly, a lot of the time they will respond and include coupons for your comments.

And don't forget to look in your local newspapers for the red plum, smart source and P&G Brandsaver inserts every few weeks.

If there are any sites I missed please feel free to share by posting a comment below.

Happy coupon hunting!
