How to Sell Coupons


Most coupons expire quickly so you would have to calculate the shipping and selling times, so the coupon will still be active when the buyer receives it.

neat, interesting idea, but why would someone pay 4 or 5$ for an insert when they could buy the whole paper for a buck?

lord have mercy. you can sell anything these days. but if someone is buying, im gonna get to clipping!

This is a great concept everyone is looking to make money or save it

good help, I always have coupons I never need! I might sell a bunch of mine soon

Wow.. I never thought about this!! I just throw those in the trash because I don't have the time to deal with them. GREAT idea.. THANK YOU!!!

I never thought of this, but I guess in this hard times anything is worth a try to earn some extra cash, great idea!

hmmm wow, ive never heard of selling a coupon. it saves you money when you go to buy somthing but why would you pay the money to buy them when you can use that money in place of the coupon.

I like using coupons but I am not going to take the time to cut out coupons, post them on an internet site and take the time to mail them across the country. Seriously, why would people spend money to save money. Especially when there are coupon trading sites out there. Such as, www.hotcouponworld.com

When I first read this I thought it would be a good idea to sell my old coupons on ebay, but now I think it would cost more money than make.

purchasing a coupon doesn't make sense to me. If you were to buy a coupon doesn't that defeat the purpose in getting the discount?

As we were informed... if you buy $70 worth of coupons that save you $1500... its worth it. ahhahaah EXTREME couponing. Aren't you glad I am a novice???

The coupons are great deal the best way to sell them is to go on market on internet show something like that where the are more client who are searching some things

I'll keep in mind what the article is about and I will buy more magazines or newspapers to receive coupons.Maybe if I will have enough,I will try to sell them to make an income.

Why would I take a gamble and pay for something which is suppose to save me money? Also it just seems curl to other people cause it's like I'm cheating them out of the savings!

This is cool, I will try this on eBay soon!

It is absolutely amazing what some people will actually buy on eBay!!!!!!

Wow this makes since. Now I know where to find hard to get coupons, that aren't in the papers around here. And where and how to sell coupons that no one else has!

still dont quite understand why people buy coupons unless they are stockpiling..which makes no sence to me all in its own..why not just get your own coupons out of the newspaper like everyone else does...seriously paying to save money....hmmmm?!?!?!

Beejay, if the price that you're paying is less than what you will save or win with the coupon, it make sense, doesn't it?

Wow! Didnt know you coudl sell coupons...I woudl try it but the only concern would be the marketability of them.

coupons help decrease the price of an item

it is useful to buy a coupon with great discounts

if you sell a coupon you can get a lot of money

Most coupons expire quickly so you would have to calculate the shipping and selling times, so the coupon will still be active when the buyer receives it.

the best site to buy a coupon is ebay

amazon should sell coupons too because it is difficult to find coupons on ebay

if you use a coupon on-line on the item that has free shipping you save a lot of time and money

if the price that you're paying is less than what you will save or win with the coupon, it make sense, doesn't it?

sometimes buying a coupon doesn't make sense

which coupons do you think is good the dollar off one or the percent off?

who would buy a coupon?

This is such a bad idea. Yes, you may save a few bucks by buying a coupon, but adding in the time/energy/work its just not worth it.

This sounds like I can save even more money each month and that is alot.

I never realized people did this. I guess it's better than collecting them and spending 6x as much as you would on thngs you don't even need just so you can say "look how much I saved."

interesting.

Great atrticle on how to sell extra coupon you have with you. Quite useful atricle. Thanks for the info.

Wow. I didn't know you could sell coupons. To me, it would make much more sense to just buy the sunday newspaper. I guess if people are willing to but them though, and you have them, it'd be nice to make a few extra bucks now and then.

The whole idea of selling a promotion seems so impractical. Dont most coupons say, "Not for Resale?"

no way, I'll pay 3 dollars for a coupon to save 50 dollars. especially if im about to go to the resteraunt

wow i never thought of selling coupons

I don't know how anyone has time to set up auctions for coupons! By the time I get around to it, they'd all expire! LOL

Yes, I agree Deejay. Why buy a coupon? Not to mention the coupons I've seen say that they are not valid if sold.

This sounds like a way to make some money but at the same time it sounds like it would take a lot of time

why n the FUCK would someone pay money for a FUCKING COUPON?!?!?

Ive always wanted to do this, after reading this i might just actually stop being so lazy and do it.

I had no idea I could sell coupons. Right on.

i do not think it is right to sell coupons , you get them for free in your mailbox and in the paper its just wrong

Wow, I didn't know you could sell coupons!

well.... I think you'll have to move fast... but I think that's a waste of time to look for coupons auctions....

my boy friend collects coupons all the time that we never use , i tell him he is wasting his time but I guess now he can sell them

it's sort of like selling the cupon books but home made ones LOL

Wow who knew there was a market for clipped coupons? I guess it doesn't hurt to give it a shot, I am not very hopefully that anyone will be buying though.
