Each weekend, we’ll be featuring a Store Spotlight, with tips on how to use coupons to maximize your savings at one of the stores we cover. If you’re just getting started, these will be great resources for you as you get the ball rolling. If you’re a more experienced couponer, these might offer tips at a store you’re less familiar with. We encourage you to pin these for future reference, or share them with friends as they get started with strategic shopping. This week’s store: Giant Eagle!
