Getting bargins!!
I just wanted to share my thoughts on getting a good deal.
1. Good deals are only good if you do it honestly. Don't try to use a coupon or a deal that is known to be fraudulent. We all make mistakes, but by knowingly getting a fradulent deal, you are ruining the repuations of couponers everywhere!
2. Stockpiling. It's great to stockpile, but if you buy 40 toothpastes and leave none for other couponers, you are being selfish. When I stockpile, I buy what I can use for 6 to 9 months ( a typical sale cycle), if I end up getting more then I can use, I donate the items to the homeless shelter, the food pantry, our local church or the animal shelter. Share and give, don't be SCROOGE!!
3. Be Polite. When I get in line at the store, with a fist full of coupons, I will let the poor guy behind me go if he has only 2 things in his hands. Remember this is a hobby and a savings, again, you can easily ruin the perspective of the people you are trying to win over to saving money!!
