Using Coupons to Help Cut Costs with Gluten-Free and Organic Items

Many of you (like us) are trying to eat better, perhaps incorporate Gluten Free foods into your diet, or more organic choices.

Although couponing tends to lend it’s way to a great deal of processed food, you can definitely still save on items that are Organic & Gluten Free – it just takes a bit more effort at times, and certainly a small amount of research.

Of all the stores that I shop at, Fry’s tends to be my choice for Gluten Free items; for my meat I now rely on Sprouts.  I’m too distant from Whole Foods to make that option workable, and Fry’s has some great prices & great selection for me, plus it’s right around the corner so it makes shopping quite easier.

Every week I encourage you to write companies in requests for product coupons – reader RJ recently took advantage of writing to a few companies to get some Organic coupons to help her family save:

Oh I wrote Amys, and just got 6 coupons!  I also wrote Gardein, and they promised so coupons as well.  Woot Woot!+

Some tips for those of you who are looking to focus more effort in that area:

::: I suggest Mambo Sprouts for Coupon Opportunities – often times you can find savings on Nature’s Path, Rudi’s, Clif, Santa Cruz, Lundberg, Imagine & more.

::: When you get your circulars each week, keep your eyes open for sales on those items that you frequently buy – and depending on the item, purchase a large amount of those items if they are at a price point that fits your budget.

::: Use email to your favor in contacting companies that are known for their great selection of Organic or Gluten-Free items – some great companies to write to include:  Amy’s Organic, Newman’s Own, Rudi’s, Tamura & Antle (known to give you coupons for FREE produce), and more.  8th Continent Soy Milk is very generous – I have requested coupons previously and been fortunate to get (2) FREE products & several high value.

::: Use myconsolidated list of companies to find companies you can write to in efforts to obtain coupons – let them know you are trying to incorporate more organic & gluten-free in your family’s diet, in hopes that they will send you coupons to try their product.

::: Don’t forget that RecycleBank has some great opportunities for Kashi Coupons that you can purchase with points as well.
