Now mostly for P&G products and ridiculously expensive cheap cosmetics.
We don't subscribe to a newspaper, though, so maybe I'm actually
missing something. Not likely, though.

It doesn't matter who you vote for, the government always gets in.

I don't subscribe to a newspaper either. I look for coupons at Coupons.com.
I select the ones I like and then print them off or I could just have them
clipped to my cellphone. BUT if I find a truly good one I will make a copy
of that one after I've printed them off.

The problem there is that those are all expensive brand-name products
which are, for the most part, available as generics for significantly
less than the coupon price :-(
 
You used to be able to get significant cents off store brand stuff :-(

It's 95% of the lawyers making the other 5% look bad.

I'm usually looking for Tidy Cats litter and snagged a $2 off coupon about
2 weeks ago of which I made a copy. There was also a $2 off coupon for
Nivea products of which I also made a copy of that one. I used it for their
'Soft' body cream which is great in the winter when the air is so dry; great
for the legs. Anyway, it is $4.68 at Walmart for a 6.8 ounce jar and the
coupon knocked it down to $2.68.
 
Sometimes I luck upon a coupon for dry cat food as well but some weeks there
is nothing I care to print off.
