[quote=armywife;628078]I don't buy the paper for coupons anymore either. I still coupon, just order them from a coupon clipping service so I get the coupons I want on the products I need. I'd rather spend the $2.00 I used to pay for a Sunday Paper on 40 coupons for chicken.



What is a coupon clipping service? Can you get a large amount of coupons for one product? I always find that I have trouble "stockpiling" because I only have one coupon to match with the sale price, and I really don't want to buy 20 newspapers.

The frugal thing I gave up on is pest control. It is better for the environment and on the pocketbook to do it frugally, but it doesn't work as well!

I have tried many things to be frugal. I've find some are fine to do, don't take too much time. But my time with family is very important. If it comes to the point that it takes away too much time with family, it isn't worth it any more. So, I find the things that I like to do or things that the whole family can help with. That way we spend time together and are still frugal.

[quote=sandybeaches;630152]I hope I can post this here. I use Grocery Coupons, Restaurant Coupons, Manufacturer Coupons - The Coupon Clippers. and yes you can buy multiples of one coupon. It's well worth the money for me, I can get the products we use and don't have to spend my time clipping coupons.

Yes!! I feel overwhelmed and stressed out that I'm not saving enough!!!

I used to make my own flavored coffee creamer and tried to make my own flavored coffee. I gave up on it b/c it just wasn't the same - and you don't want to mess with me without my morning coffee!
It's worth it to me to buy the expensive flavored creamer because it makes everything in my day so much better to have that good cup of coffee in the morning. I figure I'm saving $$ over going to Starbucks for a latte every day!!
