simonalex Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Extra newspapers on BF day for coupons?? Last yrI told DH to get some newspapers on Thanksgiving day. When he reached the grocery store at 12.00 noon, they were out of it. Simonalex
MagMagoo Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 We have our newspaper delivered, but um... that's not a bad idea. I'd feel dirty after doing it though.
RossMAN Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 that's not a bad idea. I'd feel dirty after doing it though. You say that like it's a bad thing ...
Steakgoddess Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 Not usually for BF but I always buy two papers for regualr coupons.
Gporter34 Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I would probably do that. I have picked up 2 at Belk before when you need a coupon to get the specials and I need more than one of the items. lol I don't see anything wrong with it because you are buying the paper. It's not like you didn't pay for it.
jll2375 Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I do. I have someone stop and pick up a few extra papers on their way over for Thanksgiving dinner. The only reason I want them is for the $10 off coupons at Younkers.
mrn8 Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 We have our newspaper delivered, but um... that's not a bad idea. I'd feel dirty after doing it though. No, dirty is when you open the newspaper stand and help yourself to all the papers.
jrsgirl8 Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I haven't before, but if I were to find some good coupons I might go back for more!!!
mama2ella Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 We have our newspaper delivered, but um... that's not a bad idea. i agree..my mil and sil always try to steal my ads so maybe this year I will go to the store and buy them one
caseyslilangel Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 not generally but I probably will this year since I have a micheals.LOL
t_mulkey Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I get a paper at home and then I buy one in the town that I go shopping in. It is the same paper but they don't put all of the ads in the surrounding towns delivered papers.
reportermomof3 Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 Nope. I'm a newspaper reporter, so they give us the newspapers with all the ads on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
bayhaysay Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I always buy lots of extra papers because we all get together Thurs. evening and go through them and I don't want anyone swiping my coupons or ads.
Rebirth Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 No, dirty is when you open the newspaper stand and help yourself to all the papers.lol
mommy2twingles Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I usually buy 2 papers each day that week if they have the Macy's $10 coupons. Those are really the only coupons I use that day.
Novac Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 BF is the one time every year I actually buy the paper!
Aaron Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 BF is the one time every year I actually buy the paper!The only time I buy more than one paper.
elena_398 Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 Every year I send my husband to the store on Thanksgiving. Every year my paper is missing ads. Never fails
cami_reardon Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I always do get four or five by the end of the day. But I only buy one. MIL, 2- SIL and step-MIL all give me theirs by the end of the night because they would "rather die" than "waste" time with coupons *L* little do they know, most years they help pay for their own Christmas gift!!
alimfp Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 Not usually, no. I just make sure we keep track of the ads. I always make notes in my notepad on what I want to get, then I let hubby see the ads (lol).
AuntJamelle Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 We will usually stop and pick up one or two. Then MIL will have a paper as well and she doesn't go shopping on BF. So sometimes we can score coupons from her paper as well. :)
TravelMom02 Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I can't believe I have never thought to get more than one paper!!! You betcha I will this year!!
ShawnainKY02 Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I usually buy one paper, then after I go through it send the hubby back out for more if the coupons are worth it. Most weekends I buy 2 or more anyway.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 heck yes I do!! I wouldnt miss a couple extra coupons for the world!
awellis Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I don't really need to buy them. I go to my mom's. She has the local paper delivered, but it doesn't have all the ads. So I get the rest from my grandmother who has the N&O delivered. The N&O is delivered to most of NC and is full of flyers and she doesn't go to BF so it works out great!
Avaturtle Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 We always get one or two befor BF to scan through.
Mike Posted October 22, 2005 Posted October 22, 2005 That is a good idea. Depending on the coupons...I may try to do that this year.
