How do you feel about using coupons?

I'm not a fanatic. It seems many are for things or brands I never use.

I don't think I have ever used one.

Oh yeah.  I did use one that gave me a free bottle of Nexium.  Of course.


LOL

But I hang around with people who use them and if they see something they think I could use, they give them to me and I throw them away.

I suck.

I don't bother with them most of the time, but I see how if you really try, they can help you save a decent amount of money. 

I use them when convenient and for a brand I do use, but they have to be 50 cents or more or I don't bother.

Cheap.

I've always used them, but the paper ones are rare these days.  

I think it is smart.  I'm smart but I don't fool with coupons routinely.  I know, that's not thrifty but I really hate fooling with the darn things.  I am that person who makes a grocery list but never has it when I'm at the market.  And I'm going to clip, organize, and have coupons at the market?  I don't think so.

Hardly worth the bother of cutting them out. 

Even I use coupons and if I buy groceries, my wife always reminds me to take the coupons. And if I forget to take them woe be unto me when she finds out....especially if they expire!!!! We have HEB and they have in-store coupons...and glad they do...but it seems they should probably have a card for their store like Kroger....save a lot of printing.
I think I'm funny when they say "You just saved $$$$ with your coupons." My reply is, "No....I just spent $$$$$$$$$$, so I didn't save anything."
It's ok....the clerk doesn't laugh either. Guess I'm not as funny as I think I am......

Why not use coupons, if they are for something you need?

I love coupons! Don't seek them out as much as I should but I've always considered them found money.
