A-Z, Please send some to me...Letter C!

Don't forget to check out yesterday's requests that all started with the Letter B.

Today's letter is C...
Click on the company's name to access their "contact us" form to give them a compliment and request a coupon or two!
Campbell's Soup - Campbell's Soup Co. loves to hear good feedback! In exchange, they often send great multi-use coupons for use on several different brands, too include Peppridge Farms, Campbell's, Pace, Prego or V8. Any of these brands are great for lunches. Especially those cute, tasty goldfish that can't quit smiling!
Chaquita - This company is one of my favorite to contact for coupons! Known for their popular and oh so good bananas, this company also produces great lunch snacks like apple and grape snack packs, various veggies and the famous Fresh Express salads. Be sure to compliment on your favorite food and share your address so your fresh produce coupons arrive in the mail!

Country Crock - While you may not directly pack and eat butter for lunch, think about how often we use butter for the items in our lunch? Butter is universal for good flavor. However, for a switch up, add some butter to your child's bologna sandwich. Mmmm. Try making homemade garlic better for your next get together and serve with warm sliced bread. This unexpected appetizer is going to be a crowd pleasure.
 
Bonus: Contact Coffee-Mate and request coupons for your FAVORITE coffee creamer. I use this every morning and love the Peppermint Mocha, Sweet Cream and Caramel. Everyone deserves a pick me up without spending the money at overpriced coffee shops.
 
I also wanted to leave you with a few "nuggets" of knowledge to ensure your getting off on the right foot!
  • Usually coupons that are directly mailed by the manufacturer to you have a longer amount of time before they expire (like 3 or 6 months, sometimes even a year).
  • Keep in mind you want to use any coupons you receive when the item goes on sale. This will maximize your savings when purchasing lunch products for the family.
  • Not all of these manufacturer's will respond the way you want. Some may mail your a good handful of coupons, some one and some none. Some may point you to a Facebook page instead but it is always worth a shot.
  • Be thankful! Manufacturer's do not have to offer coupons to consumers, they do to remain competitive. Anytime you receive a coupon from a manufacturer it shows a little insight into their character.
Good luck everyone! Stay tuned was we head on through the rest of this series. In a few weeks you all should be good as gold when packing lunches!
