I agree with you…. I clip everything because
sometimes a sale comes up and adding coupons makes it
so cheap that I decide to try it and love it. Alsothere are many sales at CVS that I can make money on
using a coupon and it may be something I normally
wouldn’t buy but if I am going to not only get it freebut also make money buying it with a coupon, I will
get it.
