Is there ANY store that does not try to draw people in with coupons?? There I was organizing my coupons the night before, lists all ready. Well I arrived at Macy's in Woodfield at 6:30 am, and it looked like a herd of cattle had run thru the store. I mean it was AWFUL! All I could think of was who are the poor people who have to straighten out this mess. I actually thought of leaving.....but I was on a mission....with my coupons. In the midst of it, I found my sisters in law on the upper level. They were an hour ahead of me and had already brought some purchases to the car! But back to the coupons. Well one cannot USE them on "door busters" or "early morning specials" (that pretty much takes in everything). Then there's the problem of mixing up the coupons. Carsons does not want a 15% off coupon for Children's Place. Eight hours later I was on my way home with a number of gifts for Christmas. I wasn't abut to do the same thing the next day, so I dumped out all those nasty annoying little papers called C O U P O N S and tossed them in the garbage. Ahhhhhh, such a good feeling, freeing actually. But, Monday there's another slew of them coming out. I don't know if I can do it again (hmmmm, but I do still have a couple of gifts to buy yet).
UGH! Happy shopping.............
