Could you add me to your list please? It’s my birthday, I’m snowbound with four kids and dh 1000 miles away, and it would make my day to be a disciple of ‘The Coupon Whisperer’! LOL
FWIW, last month I was at Target just looking around and decided to check the shoes because I needed a pair of boots. As usual, I started in the clearance section :) I found a pair of very cute and stylish black boots w/2 inch heels for $5.24. I almost didn’t try them on because they were 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear, but I did and they were a perfect fit! When I got to the checkout, the cashier told me that they were a return from an internet order and that such items are discounted heavily when returned to the store. I don’t know why that is, but I liked getting boots for about 1/6 of the original price!
For shoes, Shoe Carnival is a great place to hit, especially if you’re buying multiples. They’ll have a shoe on big sale like 40% off, plus give you a “buy one get 50% off second” deal. You basically get two pairs for the price of one, even for expensive brand names like Sketchers and Heelys.
Snowbound with four kids.... stock up on liquor store coupons!! LOL. Actually, I have my snow events planned like letting the girls make bread (a good three hours of joint cooperation). However, coupons will definitely help you save money feeding the little mouths. Mom
Here you go, folks — Charles, I hope you can appreciate this:
“The legend of Clippy Jack”
Listen, children, to a story
That was written long ago,
‘Bout a super coupon clipper
and the market down below
In his hands there was the treasures
clipped inside a grimy envelope
and the snot nosed assistant manager
was ready, to look at them — and then say “NOPE!”
go ahead and clip your coupons
go ahead until you perspire
do it all the weekend
you can’t use them if they expire
There won’t be any cash value
come the redemption day
on the cashier tape roll
“No store doubling” was all it said
So the people in the line
sent a message to the jerk
can you please just get this done
the rest of us have to get to work
Came an answer from the whisperer
with all of you I will share
Hot dogs 2 for 1
an extra coupon is over here
go ahead and clip your coupons
go ahead until you perspire
do it all the weekend
you can’t use them if they expire
There won’t be any cash value
come the redemption day
on the cashier tape roll
“No store doubling” was all it said
Now the cashier cries with anger
You are gaming the system - fraud!
and he tore up all the coupons
and now we know he was then fired
Now they stood inside the line
In front of the cashier, whose face was red
Grabbed the coupon and read the fine print
“1 to a customer”
was all it said!
