The News & Observer's  coupon database has been updated with all of the new coupons -- and there were a bunch.

This Sunday's home-delivered Final Edition of The News & Observer contains four inserts -- one Smart Source, two Red Plum and a P&G -- for a total of 242 coupons with a face value of more than $280.

That's before you double the first coupon, of course, which we have the opportunity to do every day of the week at Kroger, Harris Teeter and Lowes Foods.

And this week, Lowes Foods is "super doubling" coupons with a face value $2 or less -- so this is perfect timing. Check for a separate post on the blog matching Sunday's new coupons with prices at Lowes Foods.
