    Worst ever experience in my couponing history!

    I just can't sleep tonight thinking about my little fat envie full of coupons which I don't know where I have left it , probably at Bi -Lo since I was there last :sad: I had all the super great coupons that I put together to use for this week's sale at Bi-Lo and Harris Teeter.... now they're all GONE, all the hard work in trading for them.... :sad::sad: There goes my McCormick cat deal and the coupons and OYNO ... there goes my Kellogg's and Milk cat deal and awesome blinkies, all my Reese's, Vege deals......... I just called Bi-Lo CS at 1:30 AM and told me to call back at 7 AM to check with Lost and Found..... what a nightmare!! :sad: Can't even close my eyes now and DH is happily snoring in the bedroom. Even if I told him, he won't understand a couponer's pain!! :sad: Hate this feeling, that I could cry.... :sad:

    Oh .. I am so sorry .. I left my binder at CVS yesterday. Didn't realize I had done so until I was 5 miles away .. fortunately my binder was still in the cart when I got back .. That feeling of panic is HORRIBLE .. so much work goes into couponing and only fellow couponers really "get it"

    Once I left my entire BINDER at meijer's! I feel for you...I was in a panic too!!! Luckily, someone turned mine in! I went back the same day to pick it up even though it was a 30 minute drive there! I hope they find it for you and you get your coupons back!

    I left my zipper pack at HT one time. I was lucky they knew me and kept behind the CS desk until I returned. I hope you find it soon. I always put my store labeled envies in the zipper so I don't have to hunt to find q's once I get to the store so I feel your pain.
    I had sanity once upon a time I promise . It was just so long agoooo that I can't remember it.

    Did you have your name and/or phone number on it anywhere? If not, make sure to put it on your next batch of coupon stuff and if you did, don't give up yet - there could still be good news.

    This happened to me also. My expanding file had all my weeks shopping coupons sorted by the stores with my lists and also some OYNO cats that I planned to use to pay for some of the items. Had my name and ph# on it and called the store where I lost it several times over the next few days but never got it back. I know exactly how you feel right now because I've been there. You just have to let it go and remind yourself that there are more great deals and great coupons and be thankful that you didn't loose them all. It just set you back by this weeks deals.
    I hope you'll still be able to get your envelope back.

    Thank you so much everyone for taking the time to read this and sharing my pain.. almost every couponer has their fair share of horrifying experience and this was my first time losing so many at a time, so it's quite hard to swallow!

    Unfortunately, I didn't have my contacts on that envie :sad: I had my name, number and email address on my mini binder that I carry around and other envies, just not this one. I left my name and number with the CS just in case someone finds it. My DH went there this morning to search the area, also nothing.

    I just hope that the person who found that envie can put the coupons into good use (so many freebies with the coupons) and not toss them in the trash!! :shrug7:

    Cheers...
