Look for deals or coupons in the newspaper. Check if the stores double your coupons. Also check when the coupons are expiring and if there is a limit per household.

Do a Google search for coupons or service deals in the area you live in. Many companies are putting their coupons online to save on printing costs. It is also environment friendly and the good thing about this option is that your coupons never expire as they keep updating the deals online in timely manner.

Keep track of promotions in the local stores and service providers around you. To find these deals the local flyers are also very helpful. Lots of people advertise locally in stores and bulletin boards across the local malls.

Talk to family and friends. It is possible that someone in your friends and family knows about a good deal or a product you are looking for. Referrals are the number one criteria for marketing a product and it does work. Word of mouth goes a long way.
