The weekend paper here is the one with all the coupons in it, and they advertise it that way, ie, “Save up to $185.00 with offers this week” etc. The weekend paper is $2.00.
I’ve seen people looking through the ads inside, and I wonder how many of them are pulling out the coupons when no one is looking.
You’d be surprised. My hubby has to check the newspapers he buys for coupons first now. He’s gotten home and found they’ve been filched before. We’re ‘normal’ people. He buys 3 or 4 papers per week. Coupons get used and the newspapers are mulch in the garden. The lady stealing the newspapers was either ‘sick’ (who needs 150+ jars of mustard?) or part of a clipping service that sells clipped coupons.
