 Re: What sort of Mistakes have you made since couponing?
I think my biggest mistakes have been:
1)Getting too much of a free item and letting it expire without realizing it and letting it go to waste. A big thing I have done this with is toothpaste. Toothpaste stays good so long I rarely to never took at the expiration dates on the boxes. I dunno, I just feel bad letting things go to waste.
2) Not standing my ground with cashiers at stores. Sometimes they will tell me things about coupons that I know not to be true and i will either cancel my order or go ahead and get it and save less. Ive had cashiers tell me all kinds of interesting things like
A. You can only use one coupon per order (period)
B. Their store doesnt take free coupons
C. when you used to be able to print extra care bucks offline, I printed some off once only to have my CVS tell me they only accepted store printed ones.
etc. I know Ive heard more interesting things from clerks but its late and I cant think of them right now |
