Please do NOT try to [...]

Most of you know my deep love of Acme. Between the wonderful coupon policy, the fantabulous sales and the fact that my local store is filled with the nicest employees, I rarely shop anywhere else!
Diane found me on Facebook a few minutes ago and sent me this link to a story in the Pottstown Mercury [...]

UPDATE: So I’ve Deleted your precious picture. Get on with your life and stop harassing people!
So a funny thing happened yesterday (where “funny” = “making me shake with rage to the point where I can’t type without dropping the f-bomb 3000 times” I needed a day to calm down before I posted this)
A good [...]

Most of you know that I tend to be slightly…ahem….”outspoken” when it comes to the subject of Ethical Couponing.

Normally, I would just let things like this slide and decide that it isn’t the hill on which I choose to die (See? Even when I get ranty, I still hate ending sentences with a preposition!). It still isn’t a Hill Worth Death…perhaps we’ll just go for a Flesh Wound.
Those who use coupons have enough [...]

I received the following email from reader Caroline the other day, and thought is would make a great topic!
Hi Mindi,
I was just reading another blog and thought of your couponing ethics series. If a company offers a money back guarantee/rebate and says they will refund your money (or double your money) if you are not completely [...]

What are these people doing?

I am really enjoying the ”Couponing Ethics” discussions that we have been having. This question came to me via email from Caroline and I loved it. If you have any topics to contribute, please don’t hesitate to email me!

I love your blog! I’ve enjoyed reading the posts about couponing ethics and I’m not sure if [...]

We have had some interesting “couponing ethics” discussions on this site….and this is an issue that frequently has people gnashing their teeth!
What is a Shelf Clearer? Simply put, it’s a person (or persons) who goes in to a store and promptly clears the shelves to take advantage of a good deal. Go to almost any [...]

One of the problems many couponers have is when they end up with $175 in groceries for -$3.00. People think that we are scammers, gypsies, tramps and thieves. Believe me, I have deleted more comments than you can imagine from people calling me every name in the book (note: we may have free speech in this country, but this [...]
