Oct 27, 2008 -- E-coupons coming to store loyalty cards, cell phones

El Cheapo Man has a confession to make -- he's not that great with couponing. Clark doesn't like going through the Sunday fliers and clipping coupons. He'd rather just go to Aldi and buy groceries at a great savings.

But many don't like the Aldi experience or they may not be in your state. So if you go to a traditional supermarket, you may now be able to have the coupons electronically appended to your membership card. Check with your store to see if they participate.

In another development, you can even get coupons sent directly to your cell phone. Clark is registered for a free service called CellFire.com that sends barcode coupons to his handset. He simply scans the coupon at the register directly from his phone. What a way to get the savings and not be annoyed with clipping coupons!

Editor's note: While CellFire.com is free, your wireless carrier may charge a fee when you use the service. See the company's terms of service for more information.
