Coupon Clipping

     Coupons.  You get them in our Sunday papers.  You get them from "blinkies" in the grocery store.  You even print them on our computers.  There are many different ways to get coupons.  However, did you know that you can actually pay someone to clip coupons from weekly inserts and mail them to you?  That's right.  This cool little invention is called a Coupon Clipping Service.  These services are a quick, time-saving way of getting the coupons you need.  Not only can you purchase coupons from Sunday's inserts, but you can purchase coupons that may not be found in your area.  Another advantage of ordering coupons this way is quantity.  While you may purchase as many Sunday papers as you want, that can get expensive.  Aren't expenses what we are trying to cut? 

     There are drawbacks to the service.  Coupons often sell out quickly.  The biggest drawback is shipping time.  Unless the sale lasts longer than one week, you are taking a risk by waiting for the coupons to arrive by mail.  Some clipping services mail things quickly.  However, things often happen between the coupons being sent and their arrival at your home. 

     If you have time to wait for your coupons to arrive, then this service can be a great alternative to buying newspapers and spending the time cutting and sorting.

     Don't forget that the new grocery ads were released today!  Be sure to check them out.  Publix has some great deals this week!  Let us know what you find!
