[blparent] Question about coupons and ads

[Kaila Allen]

I use coupon mom.com you can pick your state and store. I'm not sure how accessible it is on the computer but it's very accessible on my iPad with voice over on. I am able to print from my iPad using Bluetooth so printing the coupons is not a big deal. Each store has their sales for the week broken down and you can check the ones you want and have a list just for that store. I have also used a few apps on my iPad that I linked to my store card and avoided having to print the coupons out. This has been great because then I don't have to remember which coupon is for which store. 

Please let me know if you have any questions. Happy couponing
