So does anybody have any idea how websites like thecouponclippers gets that many coupon inserts each Sunday?

I contacted my local newspaper to see how many I could get, or if there was a way to buy just the coupon inserts, but they told me I'd have to purchase that many paper subscriptions.

Anybody have any thoughts on this???? Dontknow

They probably work for the paper, go pick up all the unsold papers, and keep all the inserts! Hmmmm, maybe I need to go get a job there!

I found something on the $1 off 2 or $2 off 2 or BOGO. If I buy 6 of something, I can use 5 coupons with no beeps. But try one coupon for each (No matter what the decoder says) it doesnt work. It needs to have that 1 other one to attach. I found that out on the Russel Stovers. Worked fine if I used 1 less coupon than I had product. Same for some $1 off propel waters.

Am I just behind or is this common knowledge around here?
I didn't know, so thank you. I couldn't rep here so I tracked a post of yours in another thread LMAO

i hate the way they make me feel there. they always acted like i was starving her or something.


sorry done ranting now
Don't feel sorry about ranting, they had my grandson in a "failure to thrive" program because he was so skinny. They wouldn't hear that his grandfather was the same weight at his age, his mother the same way and every other relative on that side of the family. They made his mother feel like a criminal and doing "home checks" and there was always food and the grandson was always eating like a little piggie. They finally gave up when size 0 auntie showed up. I should be so lucky laugh out loud

Why do I have 11 bags of luvs in my trunk? I only ask that because a cashier thought it would be a good idea to bag chicken, luvs, buddies bar & 2 clean & clear samples in the same bag. Guess which bag stayed in the trunk? The one with the luvs sticking out of the bag. Guess what I just found (smelled) in the trunk? My $2.99 chicken that I was able to use good q's on. Frown

haha. I started a new habit of reorganizing stuff when I get to the car so that I bring the food up and me/hubby organize the rest when we have time. The other thing I do is when they have the rubbermaid I like, I stick a bin under the cart and when I'm at checkout and the cart is all on the belt, I pull up the rubbermaid, have them scan it and then just pack everything in there and on bottom of cart. Much better. But depends on how many rubbermaid you need. I've picked up 10 over the past month and can easily use that many more.

OMG, I just had the most amazing experience! I was dropping off my recycling in the ARIBITI (or whatever) bins and I noticed some newspaper bundles. I am not above reaching in to grab and sort through other people's discarded slicks (a habit I had kicked a while back, but that $2.25Electrasol coupon got me started again.) Anyway, I must have found where our paper guy dumps his unused papers. There were at least 30 copies of this past weekend's paper, plus many others. I couldn't reach half of them, but I pulled out quite a few. My question now is this: WHAT DO I DO WITH ALL THESE COUPONS? There aren't a whole lot I really want to use, and there aren't many I really need right now, too. I don't want to spend too much time on this, but I want to get SOME return for my dumpster diving. My husband doesn't really appreciate my 'coupon fetish,' so I don't want to turn it into a big project. What would you guys do?

I don't know how many you can get your hands on, but somewhere on the "Coupons and Things by Dede" website she says that she will buy whole inserts from you. If you are able to get a lot then maybe check into that.

Anyone in OK City? Will be there next week for one day, so can't go to all the area targets. Would like to hit at least 2-3, but don't want to waste my time if they aren't "coupon friendly"! TIA!!

I have a HUGE REQUEST .... Similac Sensitive coupons .....

Long Story short- one of my dads employees just took in three of his grandchildren FULL time.... They went from comfortable living to three little girls who they " picked up " with the clothes on their backs. While they are beaming with love to have those girls, it has been a financial drain.

My parents and I have been searching and saving coupons to help a little - - We will purchase the items and then deliver ( they live in Tonasket- Omak area , very rural )....

We just need some more Similac Sensitive coupons for the baby !!!

I do have lots of coupons to trade - I listed early in these forum - - or I have a 5$ Walmart CG , that I will never use !!


Suzanne ... PM me thnks !!

hi, I don't have formula coupons but have baby food ones. I wasn't sure of the ages. let me know if you would like them. I don't want anything for them. have a nice day
