Not having to buy the papers was a HUGE savings. Anywhere from $1.25 to $2.50 per paper, depending. And now, upwards of $3.50 for my favorite paper. Yikes.
But I understand searching the paper bins isn't for everyone. I'm trying to remember what I thought about garbage pickin' before I started couponing.
When my husband garbage picks, its usually just garbage...nothing I can really use...or if it is, its something huge that I have to find room for...sigh...jealous me...
eh, he wouldn't garbage pick in my town for sure. We don't have garbage disposal thingies in our dishwashers and sinks which means that we throw leftovers, peels, stinky things and everything dirty into garbage bin :)
That is what it's all about. Love being married. In fact, I'm just home from work now, Tim's on is way, and I can't wait to sit down and have a nice meal at the table.
Now that's true love!
ReplyDeleteIt really is :-)
DeleteWhoa! Sorry, I don't do garbage. I'd send it to you if I did though.
ReplyDeleteWhoa, whoa, whoa. I laughed at that bit.
DeleteNot so sure I'd garbage-pick coupons, either. But then I'm no where close to couponing as you are - Oh, Queen of Coupons, you!

Cannot remember though.
How awesome that he shares your passion!
ReplyDeleteDo you coupon?
DeleteNo. But I think I should!

ReplyDeleteFind room for it. Oh my gosh, that's good stuff. That's how my grandparents were. Always bringing stuff home.
DeleteHey, I LOVE Spooky Whisk!!! She's a HOT witch!!
ReplyDeleteI am dressed and ready for Halloween.

ReplyDeleteNo paper bins, then? That's where Tim got these. Though ever now and then someone tosses in a pop. Generally it's just papers. And FREE inserts.
DeleteWoohoo.
Just read your other comment. I wasn't sure if you were zero coupons, or very little. Zero is a bummer.
Deletewow that's a lot
ReplyDeleteIt's a healthy stack of savings.
DeleteAm I the only one who hasn't a clue what your going on about Whisk?
ReplyDeleteHubby got me more inserts. Took them from the paper bins. Garbage picked. Lots of savings. Better than jewelry.
DeleteHooray! It's Spooky Whisk time of the year already!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good Hubby you have!!
Howdy Elsie - it is. My avatar is dressed and ready for some Halloween fun.
DeleteMy husband doesn't do that but my stepson and I share coupon inserts.
ReplyDeleteSharing is good.
DeleteAwww...looks like he's a keeper! :)
ReplyDeleteMy man doesn't do that, but he does other things just because it makes me happy. That's what it's all about, isn't it?
That is what it's all about. Love being married. In fact, I'm just home from work now, Tim's on is way, and I can't wait to sit down and have a nice meal at the table.
DeleteGood livin'.
I can't get my Hubby to put something in the garbage let alone get something out.
ReplyDeleteYou are funny. I hope you come back to blogging after your break.
DeleteHell yes I garbage pick! My mom is still using the DVD player I got dumpster diving ten years ago.
ReplyDeleteThat is very good. Hot damn.
DeleteHe's a keeper but what's next.....dumpsters?
ReplyDeleteOne time I tossed a hundred dollar bill in our dumpster here. We had to go looking for it. Thankfully, it was on the top. Or, top-ish.
DeleteI don't have a man so no garbage picking - though here in Maine people do leave "free" stuff on the side of the road for anyone to take.
ReplyDeleteWe do that here as well. It's great fun.
DeleteThat's a stack!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is. Now I have to process it.
DeleteOh wow! That is a super stack! Hope there are lots of great coupons in there.
ReplyDeleteP&G is a weird one. Some months it's killer good, others not so much.
