 Re: What sort of Mistakes have you made since couponing?
I bought 64 boxes of Kelloggs fruit streamers, and gave away 20+. DS and DH ate another 30 before telling me that they were starting to taste like plastic. They sat in the closet for 4 months until the expired and I finally threw them away.
I bought 30 bottles of a-1 marinade, gave away at least 10, and used about 6 of them before they all expired. They were only good for 4-5 months.
A few times I've gotten really good deals, and went overboard with the # of transactions, then got home and realized I have no where to put it. I've got about 25 boxes of cereal in my closet (next to my underwear drawer, LOL) because there isn't anywhere else to put them. I was going to leave them in the trunk of my car, but then I wouldn't be able to go shopping to buy more! LOL
If you couldn't see a pattern here, it's that I don't know when to stop.
I've got 7 free milk catalinas, and 3 gallons of milk in my fridge right now because I couldn't stop buying cereal to get the free milk. |
