Heard of them, never seen one, don’t know how to get them, don’t care, because it clearly involves effort I’m unwilling to put in. I believe very strongly in the time value of my money. My salary translates to a bit over $30 an hour, so if it would take more than an hour of effort to get that $30 coupon I come out behind. A $5 better take less than 2 minute of effort, or again I’m behind.

I don’t chase money, not in either direction. Just doesn’t seem worth it. I used to, when I was climbing out of poverty, but I’m out now, been out for a while. Now I chase enjoying money.

Actually its a $5 off $30 purchase and the only time and effort I put into getting them is a simple button click on eBay.

p.s. Keep in mind that is $30 BEFORE coupons so if your coupons add up to $25 you get the entire bundle for FREE after you hand over the $5 off $30 coupon.

I sort of have this thing down to a sort of automatic mental process that many local couponers consult me on the latest deals. For example, I got 3 calls today from couponers asking my advice on the new Publix Green Sheet deals coming out this weekend.
