Sometimes I work for people who poor mouth and complain until I do some little free stuff add-ons.
I have heard some people say they would never want to do business with the company they themselves own - because they know how to extract the maximum amount of $$ from the consumer. I don't share that view. I would very much want to do business with myself/my company if I were in need of goods and services. In fact I use that as a measuring stick to keep value in perspective.

The lady I saw who filled the 7 carts actually got over 200 newspapers a week just for the coupons. Her total grocery's without coupons came to over three grand, which she got for about a hundred bucks. It is a literal sickness.
In the past two weeks the Fry's supermarket (about 500 feet from out house) changed their coupon policies where they no longer accept competitors coupons as well as sharply reduced the number you can use on a single item. Now we can actually find some of the stuff we used to get regularly until the "couponers" started hitting it and clearing the shelves.
