About coupons
I learned early about coupons. Wahy back when the Egal Stamps were out in the stores. With being so broke in my child hood some things stuck with me and the coupons were one. Ok the best way to say this is read the coupon for what it says. If it says something to the fact of $1 off of 2 items then it means that. Now if you have a cents off coupon in your hands at lets say 35 cents most grocery stores will double it for you. Now if the item is on salefor lets say buy one get one free you can use 2 coupons on the sale Item. Now if the item is lets say 10 for 10 and the coupon reads 2 for a dollar off you can use 5 of the coupons. Now most of the coupons are explanitory anyway and that is how I figured it all out. Pluss asked questions from folks who used coupons also. Some stores do not take printed coupons off the net anymore at all. I know Walmart does and Kmart around here does also. IF your grocery store takes the printed coupons off the net you are so lucky in my eyes. With myself here the 2 stores use to take the printed coupons eather way and no more. So I would look at the sale adds of the store and match up the coupons with the sales. I would get about 60 dollars if not more in coupons for the sales and go and that is whithout the club card that they have at the store also. That is why some of the cashiers do not like me what so ever at one of the stores to this day. Some of the cashiers do not mind takeing alot of coupons also. It really depends on the person and what end of the shift they are on also. If it was me bring on the coupons and the card let me scan the coupons and let me look pretty for 5 min or so. I look at it like this the poor person does not have to lift nothing for that period of time. Like over at Walmart the other day I told her straight out I am on foot I do not expect ya to lift what I got in the cart and that I have to drag it all home. The poor girl dang near kissed me for not makeing her do the heavy lifting and all I could say was you are welcome sweetie. So some things I can understand eather way becuase I have worked in a gas station before. And I remember what it was like to slug the 30 packs and a few other things around myself.
