Frugal Friday: Coupons in the Mail!

Finding coupons for products we love isn't always easy. We look in the Sunday paper, we Google printables, and even search around their websites and Facebook pages without any luck! One of the many things we teach during our Couponing 101 class is, that when all else fails, email a company and ask for a coupon!

A lot of us have been doing this for years, but a few months ago I came across this blog post on Pinterest. It is a gigantic list of all the companies that have sent out coupons to shoppers who send them an email. So... I was on a mission. In a few hours I had emailed all of them with the simple message "Hello! I really love your products. Do you ever send coupons out to customers through the mail?"

This message didn't work for all of them, but I was shocked at how many envelopes were in my mailbox within the week! Below, I've collected a list of all the great coupons I received.
