Coupon books

It’s that time of year again, the Show and Save and Entertainment book are out. The last few years I usually buy the entertainment one since you can order it online and I didn’t know anyone selling the other one. This year my daughter was selling the show and saves and there are some good coupons in it!

The entertainment book is 35$ right now online – there’s usually 20$ in Safeway coupons but I don’t see it listed – you can look through the coupon on their site to help make up your mind. They go on sale later in the year and usually if you pick to renew next year they give you a better deal.

The show and save is 15$ – basically if you use 1 or 2 coupons the book is pretty much paid for. There’s quite a few coupons for people out of town too. If anyone has questions on what’s in this one post it in the comments and I’ll check in the book! 🙂 I bought 2 copies – there’s a free kids meal at Cora’s in there so that pays for half the book already, and we go often. It’s fun sharing them with friends or family too, you can swap for who goes where – helps further the savings!

I can’t guess what we saved last year with these books, but it’s a lot more than what they cost! How do you guys feel about these? Which book do you prefer? One thing I noticed about show and save is that it fits in my purse easily – entertainment book i often leave in the car.
