I
love to eat KFC fried and grilled chicken. I usually visit the KFC
fast food near my home 2 or 3 times a month.
Before
I just wait for some unsolicited KFC coupons that arrived with my
junk mail every Wednesday. Sometimes, there were no KFC coupons. When
there were no KFC coupons, I just pay the full price of the meal plus
a sales tax of 8.1%.
I
was reading the Yahoo news on October 1, 2013 and there was a news
article that KFC is offering a KFC Go Cup for US$2.49 plus sales tax.
So, I visited the KFC website (http://www.kfc.com)
and
find out the nutrition information on the KFC Go Cup.
By
accident, I clicked on DEALS (http://www.kfc.com/deals)
and what I have discovered – digital coupons that I can print
using my printer. The web page asked me to enter my ZIP code
(example: 94205) and one sheet showed me six (6) coupons as follows:

1. $1
OFF – 2 pieces Original Recipe Boneless with 1 individual side
(e.g. potato wedges, cole slaw, biscuit, macaroni salad, etc.) and 1
medium soft drink
2. FREE
Original Recipe Boneless piece with the purchase of an 8-piece meal
or larger meal at the regular price
3. FREE
Lil' Bucket Kid's Meal with the purchase of an 8-piece meal or larger
meal at the regular price
4. $4.99
for 10-Piece Original Recipe Bites with individual potato wedges and
1 medium soft drink
5. $0.50
Each – Add Hot Wings pieces to any bucket (limit 20) purchase
6. $2.99
for 2-piece Grilled Chicken with 1 baked biscuit
The
coupons have expiration date of 11/30/2013. When the coupons expired, I can visit the KFC
website if I need some current KFC coupons before I go to the KFC
fast food. In case I receive unsolicited KFC coupons from my junk mail, then I do
not have to print the KFC digital coupons.
So,
for every one dollar I save from each KFC coupon is an increase of
money in my savings account.
If
I combined my savings from my grocery coupons, borrowing free books
and DVD movies from the public library, buying things from thrift
stores, and maintaining my 1990 Dodge Stratus car in good running
condition, then I can imagine the inflows of money to my savings
account.
I
want to share my financial experience with my readers. I am not a
tightwad. I just want to minimize my expenses without depriving
myself with some amenities in life.
