Re: How do you find balance with couponing? I am at the stage of replenishing stockpile so I am no longer pressured to run after the deals and hop from one store to another. I let several deals pass without feeling I missed something; it feels so good
I've also become very picky with deals. Most of them where I still have to pay taxes for items I have more than a few like most HBAs, I don't go for them anymore. Those where I will get paid (depending on how much  , if its posted as HOT MM 1.01 but after sales tax, I'm left with .45), I think several times if they are worth my time and gas. I still go to the stores to check for unadvertised deals and clearance items especially when kids are in school. But I don't allow myself to get pressured anymore. If items are OOS, RCs are my friend, which many times have been blessings in disguise.
