Come cut out a months worth of coupons for me so I can shop this Friday :rotflol: :D

I only shop once a month and so all month my inserst go into a basket . I keep telling msyelf I will not wait to the last minute to cut them out and have a several hour rush of coupon cutting :rolleyes:

Is till ahve 4 dyas to cut them out so I'll wait till tomorrow

I have a huge pile to cnps to clip and file as well.

Sure I'll tell you what...I'll come over and clip your coupons and you can come here and clean my house!!! LOL I think that is a fair deal! :rotflol: :2wiggle:

P.S. I have 4 cats 1 dog 2 boys and a hubby! Tee Hee

hehehe

So it isn't just me!! I put all my inserts in a crate.. let it sit.. . let it sit... got bigger.. and bigger... the holiday came....

I bribed and offered money to the boys but they know what a pain it is after 3 long clipping sessions...

Hub asks "I'm gonna start a fire can I use this newspaper box?" Why ask a if it's ok when you've already wadded them and stuffed some in the furnace haha

So after 4 days of clipping during free time I'm finally done whew
Everytime I do this afterwards I say boy I'm not gonna let that get behind again (yeah right)

Worst part is I had them in neat pretty piles waiting to be filed, started dinner and found the cats playing with the coupons!!!!!!

But on a more serious note LOL :jester:
I broke down and bought a paper trimmer from Office Max and it's cut waaay down on the time it takes. It's worth the initial cost. Still have to use scissors on some but not many

I take big piles of em out to the boyfriend's house and cut em while we watch a movie on the weekends, he thinks I'm nuts.........but always wants me to go grocery shopping w/ him too LOL!

I have found that using a piece of cardboard and an Xacto knife works great on clipping them. Really easier on the fingers.

I sometimes hold the it over the edge of the my desk and rip that way.

you know a diehard when you see one!! LoL even messages on how and what to use to clip them! I love this !!!Great tips by the way ;)

Really? That would seem more tedious to me.

I think finding the right sized (small) scissors which are easy to use would be the ideal solution?

Nope, not tedious at all. I put a thick piece of cardboard in my lap and just slice them out. Goes much faster and I do away with all the "extra" paper around the coupon. Scissors are ok for me for a while, but then my fingers start to cramp and I grab the Xacto. :cool:

I usually have 8-10 of each insert, so I group stacks of the same page together & cut through them all. Makes it a LOT faster if you have multiples.

Jaycebee :lol

we have cats but they are outside strays that think they belong to us

the nieghbor feeds them but the cats love my boys

hamsetr looks to much likea mouse for my liking :indiffere
