Coupons From Newspaper Recycling Center

Another source of coupons is the newspaper recycling center. Does anyone out there pick up extra coupon inserts at the recycle center?

Thats where I get ALL Of my coupons!

Over 400 a week so far, I trade most of them.

Do you dig for the coupons or just ask for them?

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.

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

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?

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.
