Sunday, January 20th, 2008NEW YORK — Coupon clipping is a time-honored tradition that helps Americans save on grocery, health-care and household items. As an increasing number of consumers resolve to save more money in 2008, coupons are making a comeback. Do you know where to find savings for the products and services you use most?
A recent study by comScore, an Internet information provider that tracks consumer behavior, found that 53% of consumers say they regularly visit brand Web sites to find promotions. Here we highlight some of the best places for printable coupons.
CouponMountain.com is one of the easiest sites to navigate because it is also one of the few that don’t require registration or a lengthy sign-up process in order to access coupons.
It features ready-to-use discounts for popular brands and stores such as Dell, Target, ToysRus, Office Depot and BestBuy. The site also offers discount codes for airfares, hotel reservations, car rentals, and online dating. And if you’re a fan of a specific store, you can subscribe for email notifications whenever special offers from that store are available.
For grocery savings, go to Coupons.com. According to independent research, it is now the leading consumer savings site on the Internet, with printable coupons for major household brands such as Johnson & Johnson, Unilever, Pepsi, General Mills, and Kraft. You can view available savings by category or by brand, print area-specific coupons by entering your zip code, and get an estimate of how much money they will save you.
Other Web sites for printable coupons include Dealcatcher.com, with up-to-date offers and a forum for users to post promotional codes; Currentcodes.com, where you can browse for savings by merchant as well as alphabetically; and FatWallet.com, which in addition to coupons allows you to search for sellers that offer cash back on certain purchases.

Apple isn’t resting on its cell phone laurels; after selling 4 million iPhones, it’s adding new features to the existing software package (including webclips, which will bookmark not just a web page but a specific zoom and pan and then let you place them on your home screen; multiple recipient SMS; and lyrics support for iTunes). Nothing major, but some nice, incremental upgrades to the existing software. iPod Touch gets the same upgrades as the iPhone, but it will cost you $20.
