The majority of my coupons come from the Sunday paper. Even my neighbors saves them for me. Go Coupons!!!
My father was sooo proud of my mother for her ability to handle her coupons as good as any Las Vegas casino dealer! LOL You sound like his kind of woman <g> ... He has passed, but mom is still doing her coupon routine.
One complaint I have about the coupon inserts (our sole source of coupons for our overseas commissaries) is the lack of baby/child coupons! The ladies in our community bring the coupons they don't use to the Post and a number of us go through and separate them into five categories: Health and Beauty Aids, Food Stuffs, Baby and Child, Pet Food and Supplies, AND Housekeeping Products and Household Merchandise (makes it easier for the families to find the stuff they need).
It is just nerve wracking to me to have MORE pet supply coupons than coupons for baby items ... :?
