    Default Do You Get Coupons?

    On Holiday Weekends in the Sunday Paper.
    We don't .
    If it wasn't that this is payday week and I need to go shopping I would not buy the Sunday paper. Its a waste of money

    I don't think we got any either. We bought the paper out of habit anyway.

    No and to get the paper we have to drive. The coupons expire so quickly & so many want you to buy mega ammounts, they are becoming more prob/money than they are worth. Sighing big time about that.

    No, we didn't get any coupons today. Since my in-laws get the paper and don't use coupons, they usually give them to us - so I don't have any expense. I usually subscribe to the paper (Sunday only) but since DH is out of work we haven't to cut back.

    We only had a Kroger insert in our paper today. I won't use the few coupons it had though. We get my mom's coupons so we don't spend any money on the paper anyways.

    No, we never get coupons on holiday weekends. We did get the Kroger insert,too. I'll probably use the NY Texas Toast coupon and that's it.

    there are never any coupons on federal hoilday weekends. taylortown coupons has a schedule of what coupon inserts will be in the paper each sunday. you can check that before buying a paper to make sure there are some scheduled. one federal holiday P&G had theirs in it, but no smart source or valssis.
