I had to share this article from www.bargainbriana.com. It's a great list of sources for coupons!
Recently, I started using printable coupons almost as much as I do “traditional” coupons. When you print from legitimate sources, you usually won’t have a problem redeeming your printable coupons. However, stores are still subject to reject any coupon at any time. Please know your store’s coupon policy before trying to redeem your printable coupons.
::Bri’s Favorite Printable Coupon Sources
Coupons.com
Coupons.com is one of my top sources for printable coupons. They are updated regularly and have a large selection. You can print these directly from my website from the little coupon widget to your right or by visiting their site to print out the coupons. Sometimes the coupons are specific to a certain zip code but you will find something you need at this site. Usually, coupons are reset at the beginning of each month but occasionally we get a surprise reset in the middle of the month.,
Red Plum Printables
Red Plum offers printable coupons. There isn’t as big of a selection as other sources but you can find high value coupons and sometimes exclusive Target printable coupons.
SmartSource.com
Smart Source offers printable coupons on their site as well and are updated regularly. Many coupons to choose form.
Manufacturer’s Sites
Many manufacturer’s offer printable coupons on their site. Go to the website of your favorite product and browse around. Look especially under promotions or coupons. Sites such as Eat Better America, Box Tops 4 Education, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, and Very Best Baking offer printable coupons.
Other Sites
This site has a list of “bricks” printables that are available to print from a variety of sites.

How to gain more coupons....
One word. EBAY.
You can actually purchase coupons on Ebay. Actually, you aren't buying the coupons; you are bidding on the time for them to cut out and sort the coupons. I know. It's just a technically to keep them legal with Ebay.
You can bid on 100 coupons and win for about $2-3 dollars which isn't bad considering a Sunday paper costs $2.00 in the KC area. Most offer free shipping because let's face it, a hundred coupons don't weigh that much!
So, if you don't want the hassle of getting Sunday papers or you want to increase your stash, just go to http://home.shop.ebay.com/items/Food-Coupons

Denny's has come out with some yummy entree salads for the summer. AND of course, there's a coupon for a free salad when you purchase another entree. Just print off this coupon and it's yours! http://www.dennys.com/LiveImages/enProductImage_685.pdf
Here's a tip you probably already know, but it can save you some money if you choose to eat out. Go to the website of any restaurants you usually frequent and sign up for their newsletter or club. They usually send out coupons now and then especially around your birthday!! It's coupons that come to you for places you'd usually go anyway!

I received this from my church's Women's ministy email newsletter. Thought it had some good advice.

Tip #1: Avoid the taxes
Shop for back to school supplies and clothes during tax-free breaks. Missouri's Tax Free Weekend: August 7-9,2009
Tip #2: Buy in Bulk
Buying in bulk at a discount warehouse like Costco or Sams' Club is a great way to save a lot of cash, especially if you have a large family.
Tip #3: Start at Home
One way to get around spending hundreds of dollars per child is to avoid buying everything new. Take an inventory of what your family already owns. Have your kids really outgrown all of their shoes and clothing? Do you have an abundance of pens, pencils, folders and rulers?
Tip #4: Start sleuthing for bargains.
Now is an excellent time to become highly attuned to clearance sales in your area and coupons that can help you at this time of year. When you find a good sale for school supplies, stock up for the entire year, not just the immediate future. Be aware that some of the best sales for backpacks, Thermoses and lunch boxes are likely to surface in September after school has already started.
Tip #5: Go to dollar stores.
You might be surprised by the selection of paper products and other school supplies you'll find there.
Tip #6: Scour garage sales, thrift stores and consignment shops.
These places typically require some legwork, but the bargains to be had are astonishing. On certain days of the week, some thrift stores allow you to fill an entire bag with clothing and buy it all for $3 or $4.
Tip #7: Remember eBay andcraigslist.
The savings could be substantial, and the process could be less time-consuming than the thrift-store-and-yard-sale route.
Tip #8: Set ground rules for clothes shopping.
Choose clothes that will give your children room to grow. Pick up extra pairs of shoes in larger sizes when you find a good sale. Tip #9: Teach important money lessons.
Back-to-school season lends itself to having frank discussions with your children about money, budgeting and needs vs. wants. Depending on their ages and maturity levels, you could negotiate back-to-school budgets with your kids and allow them to manage those budgets entirely. If they want anything above and beyond the dollar amount you've agreed to provide, let them use their allowance money or babysit, mow lawns or wash cars to pay for it themselves.
