coupon clipper

Frugal grocery shopper

A coupon clipper is someone who cuts coupons from newspapers or mailings to save money on purchases.

The term can be mildly dismissive, suggesting excessive frugality: My grandmother was a dedicated coupon clipper.

In finance, coupon clipper also describes someone living off bond interest payments—from the days when bondholders clipped physical coupons to redeem interest.
