People taking peelies (coupons) off items in the store

Do you think it is wrong or okay for people to take peelies (coupons) off of items in the store when they don't ever buy that item?

Sometimes a great deal just doesn't seem that great when you know there has been a better deal in the past.

couple summers ago, they had a coupon for $3/2 any j&j product with no restrictions. they came in blinkie form and tearpads at grocery/drugstores (found everywhere).

i went around and farmed ziploc bags full of coupons, ordered them in walmart. since they were 97¢ + tax, it was an easy money maker: 2 x (97¢ + tax) - $3 coupon = 88¢ overage/cash back.

that doesn't seem like a lot, but say you hit one store and find two tearpads (40-50 coupons on each) that is $70+ cash back and 160-200 free kits...expand that to large metro + special order at walmart = big payouts.

the only thing that sucked was waiting for shipments since these are assembly (i.e. JIT/made-to-order) and took weeks to ship. oh, and now they have verbiage on the coupons so they can't be used on trial size or these mini kits Big Grin
