There’s no denying that NFL games are heating up. If you’ve already blown your weekly entertainment budget at the local pub, it’s time to bring the party home. Being a fan myself, I offer you tips on how and where to save on NFL party supplies.

If you’re looking for where to find NFL props for parties, your first stop is NFL Shop. Save 15% on $90 or more when you use NFL Shop coupons on jerseys, figurines, DVDs and collectibles.

Teamwork – A great option that works for big groups is to share hosting duties. Also, friends can bring food, drinks and snacks of their choice to share the costs. Just remember, when it comes to how to plan a football party, food and decor are the two most important things. So, let’s get ready to rumble (oops, wrong sport):

Decor & Supplies – Inject some liveliness into the place to give the guys and the gals an experience! The benefit of buying team themed decorations is that you can reuse them year after year if you’re a loyal fan, and get your full money’s worth.

If it’s your turn to host a tailgate party at home, check out our Target coupons to save $5 on $50 or more on a variety of home entertaining items for game day. Check out banners, beer pitchers and glasses, dip platters and slow cookers. Speaking of food…

Food – Have you tried sitting through a football game without munching on something? It’s virtually impossible! Most football fans expect some hearty grub like chili, meat and potatoes. However, who has the budget for this? I don’t recommend you trying making any of these dishes if you’ve never picked up a pan before in your life.

Here are some other ways to serve delicious food at a fraction of the cost:

  • Get Some Help – Know someone who’s a whiz in the kitchen? You buy the groceries at a discount grocery store & have them cook the food for you. Thank them by offering them a small token or inviting them to the party!
  • Pick Up the Order - Preorder the food and pick it up when you’re running other errands. Consider how many people you’re having & assume seconds for everyone. Don’t let your appetite order for you because you’ll have lots of leftovers.
  • Use Coupons – Ah, my favorite. I’m always in for a good deal & when you use Omaha Steaks coupons you save 10% on $100 or more on burgers, roasts, appetizers & more.

Throw a foolproof NFL party at home and score a touchdown of savings.
