Extra Coupon Inserts? Newspapers Are on to You!

In previous years, it wasn’t that hard to get extra free coupon inserts from newspaper vendors and newspaper publishers on unsold papers, but with the explosion of interest in couponing thanks to TLC’s  Couponing show, the newspapers are changing their policies on who can have extra coupons.

“Coupons are money,” says one newspaper’s vice president of distribution. “We owe it to our coupon providers to treat them responsibly.”

Because of all of the requests for free coupons, many newspaper publishers are taking some steps to lock down on where the coupons go:

  • Unsold inserts are closely monitored and counted
  • Extra inserts are shredded before recycling
  • Delivery people are trained to only allow onset of inserts per family
  • The number of Sunday subscriptions allowed is being limited to one or two per family.


 

Good Tip: Saving money is important – especially if you have a lot of expenses like bills to pay, loans to pay off, and all the other things that drain your bank account. Figuring out a way to save money can feel tedious to some, and like a punishment to others. U.S. News suggests that you try one of these money saving challenges. The “No Eating Out for a Month” Challenge This one is self-explanatory. The goal is to avoid eating out for an entire month. This might be super easy for people who enjoy making meals at home. People who really enjoy dining out, or ordering food to be sent to their home, may struggle with this one. It’s worth a try because spending money on take-out is more expensive than buying groceries. The Pantry Challenge This one is a variation of the “No Eating Out for a Month” challenge. The goal is to use up all of your groceries before you buy more. It forces you to try and remember why you bought a food or beverage that you don’t know what to do with, and gives you the opportunity to find a way to use it. The one exemption to this challenge is the foods that have expired. Don’t eat them! Throw them in the trash. The “No Spend” Challenge Make a goal to avoid spending money during an entire weekend. The only exemption in this challenge is that you are allowed to pay bills. This challenge is interesting because it requires creativity. You must be creative and find workarounds for problems that you would typically solve by spending money. You may have a different outlook on spending after finishing this challenge.
