I met a man who said that the more coupons you have, the more you spend.
That was his experience when he went shopping.
Most shoppers don't realize it
It may be a matter of opinion.
The prices of items change day to day.
My mom notices a certain day in the week when the prices are lowest and the store is most crowded.
-
Hmm, interesting. I do use coupons but not often.
-
I'm sure its true for some people. They think they're saving money but they're buying things they wouldn't normally get to start with so it ends up costing them. I use coupons when getting groceries, but only on things that I plan on buying to start with. They can help out a lot at times!
-
I rarely use coupons because they are not for things I normally buy. I don't buy things just because i have them.
-
i've always used coupons and love it when they have some for something i already buy. like 2.00 off kelloggs cereal when you but 2 or 1..00 off the coffee. I use a couple sites like weclipusave and its good.
-
I use certain coupons, but not many!
-
I use coupons a lot. A few times i have bought something I never bought before because of a coupon and loved the product and bought it again.
-
I will use coupons sometimes. I can see how buying things just to use the coupon and save a bit could happen very easily. :in-love:
-
I try to use coupons sometime I will buy store brand and save more money I usually use them when product goes on sale and save more
-
try to use coupons on stuff I really need.
-
I use coupons on stuff I was already planning on buying or if it's for something I know we will use but don't necessarily need right at the moment. But I have found sometimes the store brand is cheaper if if you have a coupon for another brand.
-
Yes, I don't doubt that is true for some people. I myself use to coupon quite a bit, and there were times i would buy something, perhaps just to give it a try, because it was a little bit cheaper with the coupon. However, if the product was not as good as I hoped, I would not purchase it again. I think the key is to use coupons if you would ordinarily have bought the product anyway, or if you want to give a new product a try. After that, the product has to be good in its' own right.
-
I use coupons a good amount but I do not see myself spending as much.
-
I never use coupons.... :)
-
I use coupons if I need something on an item I'm gonna buy anyway. I especially like restaurant coupons cuz gotta eat anyway.
-
It's true I always look for coupons then I find something that we don't usually gets or need, I will get it because I have coupons and Oh it cause a lot of money because some of the coupons say save a dollar if you buy five of them.
-
I use coupons on stuff we use or on rare occasion stuff I want to try. I try to pair it with a sale.
For example yesterday there was a special 3 day special sale that had All Laundry detergent for $1.36, I had a coupon for .55 cents which doubled to $1.10 off which means I paid .26!
You just have to be smart about how you use them.
-
I use coupons and codes
-
I have cut down on my coupon shopping for that exact reason. If I have a coupon I buy the item where I wouldn't have bought it without the coupon.
