I saw more coupons than ever today!!!!

[skipchick]

Just had to share my little experience today. My son's first grade class took a field trip to our local large newspaper that is distributed and printed nearby. We went into a room where we literally walked by pallettes upon pallettes of coupon inserts. I thought I was going to freak out. My son sad "look Mommy it's your favorite part of the newspaper. You really like coupons." I have just never seen anything like that in my life. There were signs everywhere warning employees about taking them out of the room or the building. It was just really cool. Had to share.

DH used to work for years for the local paper as the returns clerk, so he had access to all the inserts after the papers were returned, and he said each sunday there were probably around 1,000 inserts returned. They would just recycle them, but they didn't care if he took some. I wish I had those kind of connections now.
