Coupon Conspiracy!

[Bob Peale]

Does anybody else get home from the supermarket and get irritated when, as you are unpacking your groceries, you discover all of those $#^$%@ coupons attached to the packages that say, "Save $_.__ Now!" and think, "Damn! I forgot to tear these off at checkout AGAIN!"?

I want to be mad at the checker for not noticing them when they scan it, but to be honest, it's my responsibility - hell, they see 1,000 of items a day.

In East Bumfuck New York, the town is so small that the cashiers have plenty of time to take care of coupons ....in between asking about your family and the last time you had your cycle!


LOL

Been to East Bumfuck, NY - they never asked me about MY cycle.

Now West Podunk, NY...that's another story

If you're not gonna use them, send them to me! We can use 'em for six months past the expiration. And we don't get many coupons here. That's a care package item practically.

Well, Bob dear, so as not to leave you out.....

Are you late? Are you worried?

 

[Bob Peale]

Really? Is that true of coupons that are affixed to the package too?

We have a wicked amount - we probably toss an entire insert a week.

I don't know about the ones on the package. Depends on what they say, I guess. It's amazing how quickly you forget these things when you get over here.

I came over with a whole bunch of coupons, but I almost never use them anymore. It's too much trouble to dig them out of the box in the kitchen and sort through them. Especially with a husband standing at the door, rattling the keys, yelling "Let's go!" LOL

 

[Bob Peale]

Well if you ever need anymore PM me - we toss them by the truckload!

April,

I bet I could help you out. I buy the Sunday paper specifically in order to get those cool coupon 'books'.

When I get to the checkout and the cashier asks if I have any coupons, I proudly say "Yes! I have thousands of coupons ... at home!" I never remember to actually sit down and cut them out and take them with me. I bet I could paper my whole house with them.

If you use shampoo, deodorant, dog food, cat food, toothbrushes, frozen dinners, tomato sauce, french fries, hair color, batteries, stretch girdles, foam slippers, Eva Gabor wigs, sunglasses, pizza, feminine hygiene products, Gillette shavers, toilet bowl cleaners, fuzzy slippers or paper towels then I'm your gal!

New York and cashiers that chat in one sentence ....... WOW !!!!! I never knew such a thing could happen. Sheeeesh, the cashiers put you to work in my little slice of New York. Bag your own. One market even has scan your own.
