Who gets the weekly coupons?
Do you clip and plan to use them? Or do you just pay full price?
I used to be an extreme coupon user but I am trying to quit this year. I need to use up the stuff I have stockpiled, hair and body products, soaps and deodorants and stuff like that.
But it seems I am down to my last bottle of ketchup and I did have one years worth, so I will search and buy that as a buy one get one free and use coupons on the sale to max the benefit an try to restock for another year.
This weekend I am skipping the coupons because its only the P&G and that is the non food insert.
What do you most use coupons for?

There are fewer coupons these days and most require buying 10 cans to get a dome off. These days you can get so much stuff at stores like Dollar Tree that are cheaper.

You are right about the values are declining, I guess I acquired the stockpile before the prices went down on the coupons. But to extreme coupon you do it differently than weekly shopping.

I don't use too many food coupons because most of the things I buy have no coupons but I use retail me not to shop!!

Yes, coupons are meant to lower the price so you`ll try the product and maybe like it and always buy it.

We don't have coupons here as far as I know but they sound a good idea.

I use them at my MMJ Dispensary when I get them, otherwise, I really don't use them. Most of the time I forget about them.

I don't get coupons mailed home to me but when I do, I'll flip ones I use which isn't much usually just toothpaste (Sensodyne) and boyfriends Dove deodorant. Nothing else I purchase. I use coupons to go shopping! Like being a cardholder at Macy's - I get coupons along with Victoria's Secret or occasionally DSW, they help a lot! Target app and coupons help too!

Once in a blue moon I'll find a useful coupon - most of the online are for things I have no need for.

I only use coupons for things I use but have never gotten into extreme couponing. This week we have a few coupons for local supermarket items which I'll use so I'm looking forward to getting a discount

I don't clip coupons but I do use a site that compares prices.
