Cappy, think about this for a minute:
I LIKE coupons. Not because I can't afford to shop otherwise or like eating up the cashier's time scanning odd sized pieces of paper, but because it is the ONE time I feel that I can pay the absolute minimum, maybe even less than someone else for the same item. I am tired of paying more in income taxes on the front end because I make more, only to then pay more on the back end too in the form of subsidized low income electricity and whatnot. When I hold a fistful of coupons I feel like I am personally giving the finger to everyone who thinks I should pay more for consumables "just because I can" IN ADDITION to paying more in income tax "just because I can". Until I can get all of my food from gardening, foraging, and the grey market, coupons are all I have.
