One of the first things I wanted to know when I began couponing was is it safe to print out these coupons on the computer. In this digital age information is mishandled and security is a big issue. Many of the coupon websites require that you download their software before you print coupons. This is a One Time Step and is completely safe. It’s just a few quick steps, and then you’ll be on to printing your coupons.
Companies like coupons.com, smartsource.com and redplum.com require a software download. These companies are VERY legitimate and safe. Manufacturers offer coupons to print from their websites. Many of these coupons are offered in exchange for you signing up for an account on their site.
It is recommended that you create a separate email account to use only when signing up for coupons and free samples. Many times you will receive follow-up emails from these companies, and I personally don’t like to fill my regular inbox with these offers.
You may notice sometimes they ask for your birth date. Usually, this is to insure that you are over 18, and it will not be used for any other purpose. If you are not comfortable with this, you can give a birth date that is similar to yours. For example my birthday is in August- but I often give 08/01/ (my actual birth year).
I hope you will enjoy using the coupons that are available through these sites, and that you SAVE,SAVE & SAVE the next time you are in the checkout lane.

Downloading coupons works for me because at the present moment, I don't have time to comb the papers and clip coupons.
