Just wondering. How many use coupons? We do use coupons. When we went shopping last week at Krogers. There was a lady a head of us in line. She used coupons and saved over $45 but she was on link. But I did not realize that when you use coupons that you also get taxed on it. The lad had to pay a 7 cent tax for the coupons that she used, even with her using link. Also it is unusual for someone that is on link to see them use coupons. I think using coupons is a good idea.

I use coupons but I'm not a fanatic about it because a lot of the coupons are for junk food. I do download the E-coupons to my Kroger card. Kudos to that lady for using coupons in conjunction with her Link card. It beats the lady I saw the other day who spent almost $20 on soft drinks with her Link card. They really need to overhaul that program and make it more like WIC. Only allow wholesome foods to be bought with it and not subsidize candy/soft drink habits.

I agree on that. If a person needs to use link, there should be rules on what you can ad can not buy. For instant, I do not believe a person should be allowed to buy soda, chips, or candy. I believe that a person that is on link, needs to have a list exactly what is allowed and strictly go buy that list. I also think that a person should not be on link just so they don't have to work or not to try to get a better paying job. Now the ones that are on link and are trying to improve themselves, like going back to school to attempt to get a better paying job, are the ones that should receive link. Because then the chances is they will be off of link. I also think that maybe the people on link needs to go through a class on how to better manage their money and be made to manage their money or get off link. Just a thought.

Have you checked out Ibotta or Checkout 51? Both are apps for your phone.
