backwards?
So I fear I may be moving backwards in my couponing. Maybe not since I never really went anywhere with it so I guess maybe I am just staying the same. I do have a ton of coupons though. I am having a really hard time figuring out what to do with all of them. I cut them and have them all organized (I'm kinda crazy when it comes to organizing my coupons) but I just don't really use them. I look through the news paper each week and look at the grocery store adds but I am terrible at figuring out what to get. I see sales on items and sometimes even things that I have a coupon for but I can't bring myself to use it or stock up if the price is not free or almost free so in the end I end up paying full price. I know that I should just use the coupons but I always feel like a better deal will come and I need to wait. I guess I should have thought about this before I started since this is not an uncommon problem for me. I did it with my halloween candy as a kid, i do it with gift cards, money, even presents I get sometimes (you know the set type that comes with the supplies you need for a project.) I simply can't bring myself to use something because I am certain a situation is coming down the road when I will need it more. The only bonus to this is I am a great saver! I have gift cards to all kinds of places and you can always count on me to have a stash of christmas candy, as long as you don't mind the slightly old kind. Well anyway that's it for now I'll let you know if I jump back on the couponing train.
