    I've lost my coupon clipping mind

    Oh dear lord.

    Ive been sitting here for HOURS clipping coupons and sorting them into my coupon binder. Hours. No food, no breaks nothing.

    So hubby asks why I'm so "focused"...

    And without looking up, scissors snipping like mad, I tell him...


    its expo season.... I need the money to stretch farther!!!!!

    😳.... I don't even blame him for laughing so hard.

    And the the mailwoman has had enough. I just got a postcard saying I can go pick up all my free in mail samples myself at the post office. She is officially tired of carrying them. But I just can't help myself!! She also told me she nominated me for that coupon show. O.o

    Have I gone mad??

    I had an aunt who clipped coupons assiduously, to the point of collecting circulars, newspaper inserts, etc from the rest of the family. E all assumed she used them.... But she was also a hoarder, and when she passed away, there were all these giant piles of circulars and unused, clipped coupons all over her house.
    So I don't usually get into clipping coupons. :/

    Oh dear. At least I use most of them. And toss the rest once they expire. But I do go and get the coupon circular from my neighbors yards lol!

    But yeah, it's a thin like between stockpile and hoard.

    Lol! Cute reasoning!

    I'm envious of your coupon-ing. I'm not sure that in Canada we can be as intense as the US with the coupons. I say power to you hahah

    lmao the struggle is real It's funny because after seeking out advice on BP.net people say "you can purchase for $25.00." In reality it costs me $50.00 in Canada. I love living here though so no complaints.

    Well you are always welcome to come live in the US. Only catch is that you have to come in through the Mexico/US border. Always open 24/7 and no passport needed!
