Back to Clipping!


True to the promise I made to myself, I did not clip coupons for an entire month.  I had more time to sit and vegetate, read a couple of books, magazines, etc.  But what happened most was, I missed tons of great bargains by not clipping my coupons.

I used the filing method (file uncut inserts) that many couponers have started using to save time by not clipping, sorting, and filing individual coupons.  But, I found that if I don't see, clip, and file each coupon, I don't know that I have it.  As a result, I can't mentally match up a sale item with the coupon.  Besides that, I really like clipping, sorting, and filing the coupons.  It's like counting money! Who doesn't like counting money?

I am planning a shopping trip for the end of this week.  Also, this Saturday, Wegman's is having a grand opening of their new store in Gambrills, MD.  Can't wait to see the bargains they will have.

Finally, I have been teaching several classes this fall and looking forward to the class I am doing for some parents at a local elementary school sponsored by their PTSA. 

This is an exciting time to coupon.  I love stockpiling comfort foods for those cold wintry days and nights.  Soups and stews and lots of home cooking for the holidays are perfect for couponing!

Happy Couponing!
