Does anyone out there pick up extra coupon inserts at the recycle center? MicheleMomof3 02-21-2002, 12:21 AM Thats where I get ALL Of my coupons! :) Over 400 a week so far, I trade most of them. ~Michele~ danajcoop 02-24-2002, 10:18 PM Do you dig for the coupons or just ask for them? MicheleMomof3 02-24-2002, 10:36 PM Our newspaper recycling thing is in the Goodwill parking lot, so I just dig for them. I must have pulled 2000 out there this morning alone. ~Michele~ MicheleMomof3 02-24-2002, 11:08 PM Another tip I usually have the most luck on Sundays and Mondays. ~Michele~ danajcoop 02-24-2002, 11:16 PM We have recycle bins at my kids school and at the Krogers parking lot. I will go look and see if I can get any out. Thanks danajcoop 02-25-2002, 12:06 AM I went to go look. Our Krogers is remodeling and adding on to the store so that one is gone. The one at the kids school is preety full. I grabbed one newspaper out but it was dated dec. 18 and no coupons. I wanted to hurry since it was late a night. I will see what I can find tomorrow. The recycle bin is owned by Dallas Fort Worth Star Telegram. Am I breaking any laws doing this? Does anyone care if people take things out of the bins? Do you know? MicheleMomof3 02-25-2002, 03:42 PM I think people wouldnt care unless you made a mess. I always make sure when I dumpster dive ANYTHING to leave the place cleanier than I found it. The Mgr. lady from Goodwill came out today when I was digging and said to me " I see you here a few times a week, what are you looking for??" I told her I was getting the coupon inserts. And she told me I was very smart for getting them here and not paying $1.50 for the Sunday paper. So she didnt seem to mind :) I always go during the day. That way I dont look too suspcious. ~Michele~ Chocolatechocolate 02-26-2002, 02:18 AM Michele....thanks for the wonderful tip!
