Printing coupons

[Archer]

So when you guys are getting "printable coupons" do you print all of them hoping to trade the ones you don't need or want, or do you just print what you need?

I would like to start getting active in the trading area but I want to get a stock pile first.

I only print the ones I need. If I do a train and the person I am working with needs certain printables then I just print them then.

I just dont like the clutter.

Agree. I think printing everything wastes a lot of ink and paper... (and therefore money). I print what I want and anything I see that I know one of my friends can use. Then if I'm riding a train or doing a swap, I'll print the ones that are relevant for that. But I never just select everything and hit print...

Especially if you can't find traders who want the coupons or you yourself do not use the coupons. I only print the ones I truely will be using or if I want to do a trade with someone and I don't have specific insert coupons on their wishlists.

I print the ones I need, and then have a couple of friends here on the board who I check with, and print off anything they need, and then as I see printables needed for people who I am matched with on trains, I will get those as well. Otherwise, I do not print every printable, for me, I think a lot would go to waste. Hope this helps!

I half my coupons I use are printed. And I print them the day before I go shopping. Unless it is one that has popped up on a blog i follow cause those one go quick I usally print them at the time they pop up.

That is a good practice. I do the same thing. When I am making my list and looking through my Qs, anything I don't have a coupon for, I will check our HCW Coupon DB or the mfgs website to see if they are offering a printable Q. This helps a lot!!! Depending on how much of the product I need, I will then either print off 1 or the 2 that I am aloted.
