Some of you have asked about the coupon lingo that I use, so I thought I would clarify. Hope this helps! Always ask if you have questions.
Sunday coupon inserts:
- P&G = Procter and Gamble
- RP = Red Plum
- SS = Smart Source
BOGO = Buy one, get one free. Sometimes though I may specify “BOGO 1/2 off,” in which case the second item is not free but half price. If it just says “BOGO,” the second item is FREE!
B2G1 = Same concept as buy one, get one free, but this time you have to buy 2 in order to get the free item.
Cat = Catalina coupon. These are those coupons dispensed at the register, with your receipt. They are specific to items you buy.
MC = Manufacturer’s coupon. I specify this because some coupons are store specific and can only be used at that particular store. MC’s can be used at any store that accepts coupons.
OOP = Out of pocket cost; what I paid after coupons, rebates, etc.
WYB = When you buy
THANKS! That really helps have a great Tuesday!
