Huh?!?!?!

When I first started couponing I found sooo many words I didn’t understand I spent a lot of time googleing :p and researching just to understand what I needed to get the deal.
That’s why I’ve compiled a list of different abbreviations often referred to in the coupon world. If you can think of anything else you’d like me to add to the list, please let me know! Hopefully this can save you a couple steps and make couponing that much easier!

• ECB- Extra Care Buck (CVS store credit voucher that will print when specific items are purchased)
