I don’t get it! There was a time when shoppers dedicated
to the art of coupon shopping could look forward to receiving hundreds of
valued manufactures’ food coupons either through the mail or in theirs’ Sunday
newspapers. Now, it seems that when consumers opens their mailboxes the only
thing in it are flyers and ads they from local stores with contain few or no
coupons or items they will never need and need once in a blue moon. The local
newspaper is no better.
Currently where every penny counts for many
households stuck down by unemployment and fitted incomes, manufactures coupons are
the added saving to an overstretched budgets. Manufactures coupons were the
difference between no sales and sales within stores.
Manufactures like Del Monte, Starkist Tuna, Kellogg, Vlasic, and
more could sometimes be valid up to one year and many times added to store
coupons for added saving. So, where are they?
Is there
some coupon-knappers gathering up manufactures’ coupons before
can be made available to the public? Are any MCKPs (Manufactures' Coupon-Knappers Police) in
which we are reported this great lost? Or, have manufacture’s coupons all disappeared
to some on distant and hard to find websites where consumers have download and
print the coupons themselves?
If manufacturer’s food coupons
have gone the way of the interest, how can conscientious consumers get them
flow back into them mailboxes?
What
a dilemma!
