#1 Coupon Cabin

This is the most organized and easiest to use use coupon site that I have found. They provide good details on all their coupons, both printable and online. There are no pop-ups, requests to refinance your house, or strange requests for your personal information. You don’t have to worry about this stuff because they make money by referring you to the coupon providers.

Coupon cabin also offers a bunch of free samples too! You will have to judge each offer’s quality for yourself and you will definitely be put on the company’s e-mail list. I don’t think that you have to worry about spam for a majority of them and it’s hard to resist free stuff!

#2 Retail Me Not

Retail Me Not is definitely worth a look. They provide all kinds of coupon codes and printable grocery coupons. They also rate how often the codes actually work. They have a great user interface, but you’ll find that many of the coupons are expired or fail when you try to use them.

Retail Me Not is an excellent idea, but sometimes it get your hopes up and then lets you down ): That is just my personal feeling and I still recommend checking them out for a deal. You don’t have to deal with pop-ups or other solicitations here either.

#3 Wow Coupons

I have to give WOW a thumbs up. They link you directly to the coupons (printable and online) with no headaches. You have to install their coupon printer, but then you can print out as many as you want. Their categories fall under retail, grocery, restaurant, travel, and rebates.

The retail page is straight forward. The grocery page has ads at the top, but there are legitimate coupons if you scroll down. If you need restaurant coupons then you have to actually buy them from Restaurant.com, which has been reviewed on this site. The rebates page is non-specific and wasn’t all that helpful. I initially thought that the travel page would be useful, but it just turned out to be a bunch of embedded advertisements.

Wow coupons is also good for their printable grocery and retail store coupons. Just click on the grocery tab and scroll down past the sponsored ads at the top. Click on any link after the 20 initial ads and you will be redirected to a page where you can print out over 150 worthwhile coupons without a bunch of pop-up spam advertisements.

#4 Red Plum

Nothing fancy here. This is another clone coupon site with the same stuff you can find elsewhere. They are worth a look and using Red Plum over the previous 2 sites would just be a matter of preference. They are easy to use and legitimate.

#5 Mommy Saves Big Blog

I like this site because it is a blog and it features good deals that you won’t find at the syndicated coupon distributors like Coupon Cabin and Retail Me Not. A real person actually put some thought into the deals they present and they are not just promoting a bunch of junk to force a sale out of you. It reminds me another site I know… I think it’s called The Net Analyst or something like that (;

Anyways, Mommy Saves Big is a little rough to navigate, so I would suggest picking a category like “coupon codes” or “bargains & deals” and just scrolling down the blog posts. Your bound to find something good whether its a skirt on sale at JC Penny or 20% off a coach handbag. This is a unique coupon site so make sure to check it out!

Stay Away from These!

#6 Coupon Mom

Sorry Mom. You get a thumbs down. You may rank #2 on Google’s search for coupons, but your site navigation blows and every page is flooded with ads. Do you seriously expect me to give you my e-mail address just to see what coupons you might have? Other sites have a much better presentation.

#7 Cool Savings

I give this coupon site a thumbs down due to poor navigation, no features, lots of adds, and only several coupons per page. The ads are not screened at all and most of it is just junk!

#8 Smart Source

This site is better than Cool Savings, but I still had to decline 5 advertisements just to print a coupon. Stay away!
