the 100% directionless thread

Also, for some more randomness....Couponing is awsome! I just learned not too long ago myself, and I must say its pretty addicting. Saving $$$ is great, especially since you don't make too much $$$ in this particular profession (so I've heard) I think couponing is worth the time especially when you are broke, like me :)
 
I'm not an extreme couponer by any means, but I still love it when grocery clerks are genuinely surprised and compliment my skills when I save $80 + on my order. Hahaha.

Yea neither am I, but I do get a rush (lol) when I do really well. I especially love when I stumble across items that end up being free because of coupons.
 
That's pretty much the best. I've received money back a few times. I have like 5-6 tubes of toothpaste, which were free, stashed. Not as bad as some people who dedicate their entire garage to stashing their scores.

Meh, it really depends on what they're stashing. If it's something that's non-perishable, then who cares? If it gets used (even eventually) or donated, then it's ultimately no harm, no foul. It's when people have to start throwing away crud that they buy because it's going bad that it becomes a problem.
 
So Brown had John Lennon and Paul Harrison today

Tell you what, they don't look a thing like Brown thought they did :D

I don't take any issue with it myself and I think it's really cool when people are able to donate tons of stuff to food banks and such. I just don't have the hours to spend personally. Some of the folks on the "Extreme Couponers "show genuinely concerned me. Most were normal and just clever folks, and granted it is television, but for some it seemed to be more of a true addiction, and was negatively impacting their relationships.

yea, like the lady that had 1,000 diapers but didnt have any children and didn't plan on donating them.
 
My aunt just got 50 bottles of paul mitchell shampoo for free. She buys coupons off of ebay.

My proudest adventure was buying milk at kroger and them having to give me 50cents for it.

So.. if you buy coupons, are the items still free? :unsure:





Damnit! Fell asleep on one of my days off, wasting 3 hours. And it was the kind of sleep where I woke up not knowing what day it was... if I had slept a whole day or if I was even late for work.

Unless it's company issue, sounds like a great way to "not receive" the 3 am toe pain call.

We have company issued cell phones but they suck. Good old nextels and their wonderful service. I'm off at 10 so I don't have to worry about that.... Hopefully
