In addition to the wonderful coupons we find in our newspaper inserts and online, many stores are also offering electronic coupons as well! These coupons can be loaded onto your shopper’s card for your store, and you automatically receive the savings at checkout.
Cellfire.com is a site that contains electronic coupons that you can load to your store card just by visiting the website and choosing the coupons that you want. You can even load them to your card via your cell phone.
The following stores currently participate in CellFire:
Baker’s
City Market
Dillons
Dominick’s
Fry’s
Gerbes
Hilander
JayC
King Soopers

ShortCuts.com is another site that lets you load store coupons to your shopper’s card. And guess what… there are even MORE coupons on their site.

If your grocery store happens to participate in any or all of these, you can have store coupons from all three sites loaded on your card simultaneously.
SoftCoin offers electronic coupons for Unilever products for the following stores:
City Market
Dillons
Fry’s
Hilander
JayC
King Soopers
Kroger
Again, visit the site, enter your card number, and load them to your card. It’s easy! You’ll also find a link to these coupons from the individual sites of the stores listed above.
Upromise.com is a different kind of electronic coupon. When you load these to your shopper’s card, the amount saved goes into your child’s college savings fund at Upromise. And, you can use manufacturer coupons in conjunction with Upromise coupons as well.
MANY stores nationwide participate in Upromise — too many to list! Visit their site, register your shopper’s card, and get started saving! After you log in, click eCoupons, and you’re ready to load them to your card.
If your local store doesn’t participate in any of these programs, make sure to check the store’s site. The Jewel-Osco chain in Chicago offers its own electronic coupons called Avenu:
Log in with your Jewel Preferred card, add the items to the card, and start saving! It’s as easy as that. And again, we can use manufacturer coupons with these, as the electronic coupons function as store coupons as well.
The Giant Eagle chain of grocery stores also offers their own electronic coupons:
Again, log in with your card, load them on, and start saving!
Even if your store doesn’t offer electronic coupons, check their website regularly, as they may offer printable store coupons that can be stacked with manufacturer coupons too, as Target does nationally. The Meijer chain of supermarkets does this as well:
Click “Specials” and you’ll receive a list of coupons valid for the current week. Clicking each item will bring up a separate window to print that coupon.
I’m doing my best to keep this list as updated as possible! If you discover additional stores participating in electronic coupons, please feel free to post them here!

Can you use the Hilander Card at a Kroger store and vise versa?
sjw1314 says
This is probably a dumb question, but does anybody have any tips on Kroger? I might be in the area by one in a couple of weeks. I tried signing up with coupons online, but since I don’t have a Kroger card, the coupons wouldn’t load.
venegas says
Food4Less in Crest Hill sells Kroger brand items. Does this mean that it issues the Kroger card and that it has the same policies? I’m not sure if selling a brand makes a store “affiliated.”
carrieskitchen says
How in the world do you find this stuff? I am going to try to look for south FLorida stores, but I am amazed that you can find all of this!!! I’ll tape searching tips any day! :)

My mom lives in Huntley and I hear all the deals she gets, Thank you Jill!
I live in Peoria and I try my best to copy what you do but I am not sure if Kroger stacks coupons or not.
On a side note Upromise.com also lets you load coupons on to your Kroger card also. It is great when you get a cashier the has to wait to scan paper coupons because they have to wait for loaded coupons to load.

I just activated both shortcuts and cellfire to Tom Thumb so I can get the discounts at Dominicks with my Fresh Values Card. Here is my question… I noticed Betty Crocker Brownies have coupons on both sites, one for .75/2 (cellfire) and the other for .60/2 (shortcuts). Jill, how do you know which one will activate at checkout?
alleykat20 says
Jill, at that SoftCoin website it lists Dominick’s as a company that you can load ecoupons too. However, yesterday when I logged in, it doesn’t show that as an option. Have you tried this with Dominick’s?
Beachlover says
I need to know how Cellfire works. I have to pay for each text message received or sent from my cell phone so this will not help me save money if it is going to cause charges on my cell phone bill every time I use it. I tried to read the policy on their website and it is unclear what charges you incur after the initial sign-up. Please let me know how it works exactly.

Did you know that Kroger is no longer participating with the P&G eSaver program?!! I called P&G (888-818-0540) and they told me that as of December 31st they were no longer participating! I emailed Kroger and they told me they have a new electronic coupon system. Well they do not have P&G coupons on there and that is what I love and miss! I think we should all call and e-mail these companies to get them to go back to Kroger!
Bernard2003 says
with the help desks on P&G eSaver and softcoin and I STILL can’t get them to load my card or show up as having ANY coupons to add… I even had one cashier (who was rather nasty to me anyways) tell me none of the “new cards” work with those sites.. is this true?
She says getting a new card would not work for me, because the new card would still start with the same first three numbers and those are the ones having trouble. I’ve had this card for over 6 years, so I would hardly call it a “new” number, but whatever. I’m sick of it.
the only eSaver site I can seem to get loaded on my card are the cellfire and shortcuts sites. softcoin, P&G eSaver and the Dominck’s site (which sends me to softcoin) doesn’t work. GRRR!
pwill69 says
Just curious with this program, does it make sense to load all the offers available or just pick and choose those you KNOW you are going to use? I wouldn’t want to load offers I wasn’t going to use that could potentially eliminate others from using them (i.e., like some of the other sites that print paper coupons run out of prints).

If I load an E coupon off of P&G and I buy 4 items will that e coupon work 4 different times, or is it just a one time thing. I’m asking this because of the diaper deal going on right now at Dominicks. The in store coupon has a max on 4 diapers If I buy 4 packages of diapers will the e coupon work on each package of diapers?
Thanks!!!

Today i loaded several coupons for Dominick’s and none of them worked. Last week they all came off.. Can anyone tell me what i did wrong???
ekj75ekj75 says
I don’t think you did anything wrong. Mine didn’t come off either when I went to Dominicks, I loaded them from both sites. =(
mrspeep says
Above you note that you can use coupons on top of the ecoupons that you load onto your card. My Kroger in Bourbonnais says I can’t do that because the ones loaded on my card are already manufacturer coupons. Am I missing something? Thanks!
bjm19047 says
Hi Jill,
Bottom Dollar Foods also participates in some of these sites. Just wanted to let you know.
