My "disclaimers"
-Yes, I have a coupon binder, no I do not bring it into the store with me. I go through the ads, make a list on an envelope, pull the coupons from my binder and sort them into the envelope for each store. I also try not to shop at the busy times as I am considerate of other shoppers...if you're behind me with only a few items you also get to go ahead of me if I have more than a few coupons.
-I almost never have more than 2 of the same coupon.
-I only buy stuff we actually use.
-I usually buy my produce at Henry's or Vons because other stores have a dismal selection of organics.
-I prefer to buy organic or natural products, however, I am very conscious about trying to eliminate any products containing high fructose corn syrup. (good bye Honey Maid graham crackers)
-One day, when my monkeys go to school, I would like to eliminate as much processed food as possible. Unfortunately, there's this thing called "time" that makes that less of a priority. I'd rather spend my time with them than in the kitchen for hours on end.
