I don't get any newspapers. Haven't for years. Also, I'm not going to carry around a wad of coupons on the off chance that I might stop somewhere for lunch. If I'm willing to patronize an establishment they should give me their best price just for walking in. I can chose to take it or leave it.
Yeah, you can do that. It's your money, at least for awhile. My wife showed me the value of coupons, because her family needed them to survive. She routinely walks out of grocery stores with 200 - 250 dollars worth of stuff, for 30 - 50 bucks. It is an art, so to speak. If I hadn't seen it her do it so many times I wouldn't have believed it possible.
