Did you know that even if you are done with college, you can sign up with UPromise.com?? I didn’t until recently.
With UPromise, you can link your Credit/Debit Cards to earn additional money that can be used to pay off your student loans. All kinds of purchases (dinings out, travel, general shopping), can help you earn money to pay off your student loan debt. You can also get coupon savings that will be loaded directly to your grocery/store cards.
For me, with the planning that I’ve done about coupons, their use will earn me double savings to be applied towards debt.
I’ve started couponing to help stretch my $$$$ a little further. It’s amazing what you can do with a little work and some tiny slips of paper.
Deals I got this weekend:
Macy’s:
Shirt that was reduced from $54 to $27. I had a $10 off coupon for any purchase over $25.00. So that dropped the price to $17. With tax it came to $18.10.
Barnes and Noble
Purchased a Calendar and a book. I had a 15% coupon for any one Item plus I got my normal 10% discount for my card. I saved 6.66 total on the order and I walked out of the store for $32.73.
Walgreens:
Used their coupons for ribbon, medium shirt boxes, and gift bags. Total came to 17.10 before the coupons. After the coupons were applied I saved $7.46 and walked out of the store for $9.14
