Changing to More Frugal Ways

I have been trying to find ways to cut back on cost around here.  Hy-Vee had a sale on boxes of Jello Pudding for $.69.  When I went to the store to buy a box I saw that they have the Hy-Vee brand was only $.49 for its everyday price.  I decided that pudding was pudding and brought home the Hy-Vee brand.  The box said it was worth 4 servings, but I was able to make 5 serving from one box for my daughter's school lunch.  Unfortunately she forgot her lunch today and was unable to give me her take on the taste.

It seems you can find most coupons from the paper online or something comparable to them. Is it worth using your paper and printer ink instead of buying the paper? I'm not sure because a lot of the time I have trouble printing the coupons online, plus you would probably miss some coupons that you wouldn't think to search for.
