I guess this kind of an odd question. I coupon, I love it! I have also started a couponing group with some other ladies in my neighborhood. We get together twice a month share tips, learn new things, swap coupons, and at the end of the month we send all of our coupons over seas to military families in need. Being that all of us women in the group are military spouses or military themselves we use coupons to to hlep us get by and make our money last longer.
So I guess my question is Do you any of you coupon? If not what do you do with them? Don't throw them away. You can always send them my way and My Group and I will make sure that they get used in one way or another. Military families over seas can use these coupons for up to 6 months after expiration so they will get used by one person or another.
This would be soooooooooooo helpful to me, my group, and many families in need over seas. Thank you for your help.
I dont belong to a group or have a binder or anything like that, but I do clip & use coupons. A lot of the ones that I cant use I pass on to my mom or m-i-l and they do the same. My husband used to tease me about using them, but now that he sees how much we save hes starting to get in to it
I would use coupons if the coupon thief from our neighborhood would stop swiping mine from my driveway before I have a chance to pick them up. ARGH!
I coupon like crazy!!! As much as I can save... I do. I get mine from the net, from friends, family, wherever I can! All of us can use coupons up to a year after exp date at Kroger. I've done it myself.
I work in a place that builds vehicles for the military. We collect for them all the time. We also do gift boxes with all sorts of items.
Awesome to know that there are others out there doing the same!
I don't coupon. BUT if I were you guys I would tell every lady that does it with you to tell their church (through newsletters, e-mail, whatever) to publish this request for you. You'd have coupons coming out your ears. If you can handle that influx of coupons, you can keep spreading the word. I'd bet Tacoma will have more than enough for you guys to manage. Good for you guys doing such a nice thing! Great idea!
I do but print most of mine online - i tend to buy a lot of the same foods so it's easier to find those brands online then filter through whatever comes with the paper.
It's fun and i'm always trying to save as much as i can - but so far i haven't exceeded much more than $10 to $15 a week - but I'll take it - that's over $500 a year!!!
I want to, but I don't even know where to start...
I don't have a printer, so i cant print anything out. I don't get a newspaper at my new house...so..ya..
How do you get started in this? anyway to save money is A GREAT thing to me.
cool. thats a definately a unique way to support our military. it seems to me though, that coupons are in abundance already. Most can be printed online and I think I could wallpaper my bathroom with the ones I get in the mail and in the Sunday paper in just 1 week. BUt what do I know? If you have an address, I'd be happy to forward you my coupons.
