I do print, print, print from the internet.
With our pending move coming, I signed up for ezmeals, which gives me a shopping list. That way, I only buy what I need.
Most I've ever saved in the states shopping was about $70. That was about 10 years ago. Was at a grocery store that had the "buy one get 2 free or 3 free and some things were even buy one get 5 free". Gotta love those! Between that and the coupons I had, shopping was fun that day!
One of the projects of our Unit is collecting coupons and shipping them to overseas commissaries. It is a specially productive program since we are allowed to forward on expired coupons (no more than three months past), but I have a question!
The people who send the information about how, when, where, and why - - tell us to NOT include computer coupons. I cannot quite get it through my head and Terri's post really brings it to the fore - - what happens to computer coupons that make the ones I print not acceptable to commissaries? (am just curious <g> not looking for a plot;) <wave>
