Coupons are a great way to save yourself some money on groceries, restaurants, and a variety of other products and services as well. Of course, in order to get the great deal that is on the coupon, you have to actually have the coupon with you when you are ready to check out. Cellfire makes it easier for you to make sure that your coupons are ready when you are, by putting those coupons on your cell phone. This is just one of the many benefits that users of Cellfire can take advantage of.
In today’s economy, where we continue to have a very high unemployment rate, it has become a trend to use coupons. It has become so popular, that it has spawned it’s own verb: “couponing”. There used to be a stigma placed on women who pull out a giant wad of coupons while going through the cash wrap at the grocery stores, holding up the line for everyone who had the misfortune of being behind her. Now, that same “coupon lady” is going to be somewhat admired, because that woman obviously has done her homework, and learned how to find tons and tons of coupons.
Cellfire can help you find plenty of coupons. You can join for free. Just fill out the little form on their website, and give Cellfire your mobile phone number, the year of your birth, and your zip code. Put in your email address. They also want to know if you are male or female. This allows Cellfire to show you coupons for offers that are in your area, that you might be interested in using. They promise not to send any SPAM to your cell phone, and the don’t share your information with anyone else. You don’t have to sign up with Cellfire in order to use this service, but people who sign up do get extra offers.
Next, you can start looking for coupons. You can browse the deals on the Cellfire website though your PC, or you can use the Cellfire mobile app to browse the coupons on Cellfire though your mobile phone. You can save the grocery coupons you find through Cellfire directly onto the store card. This means that you don’t have to print anything out, and you can’t accidentally lose the coupon before you make it to the grocery store.
For example: I get a lot of my groceries from Vons. I could use Cellfire to put extra coupons onto my Vons card. All I have to do is to hand the cashier my Vons card, which I would be doing anyway, and the coupons from Cellfire will automatically be discounted as I check out.
If you use the Cellfire app, then all you need when you are ready to pay is your cell phone. The coupons you saved will be waiting for you, until you use them, or they expire. Just show the sales clerk your cell phone, which will display the bar code for that particular coupon. It is extremely easy to use.
