Coupon Apps Without Printing

I can’t tell you how many times I have found myself in a store needing to buy something that I know has a coupon (like toothpaste or toilet paper or juice) and I don’t have the coupon with me.  For as much as I write about saving money when shopping and using coupons, I am not the extreme couponing type who carries a big organized couponing binder around with me wherever I go.  I am much more of a techy and much more comfortable keeping all my information and documents as paperless as possible.  Which, of course, is why I love smartphones and apps so much.

Plenty of manufacturers and retailers offer mobile coupons as a way to help you save money.  These apps allow you to access coupons quickly and without the need to print or cut them out in advance.
