There's only one reason for not clipping coupons: you don't think the time it takes to cut and organize them isn't worth the return. It may not seem like coupons will give you kong-size savings at first, however, did you know that the average family can save from $500-$1000 each year simply by using coupons for in-store purchases? Even if you don't want the extra cash in your rainy day fund, putting the money saved by using coupons and putting it in an account with a 5% interest rate will return nearly $40,000 after 20 years! A lifestyle of clipping coupons (making it a habit and addiction like I have) chips away at your budget, allowing you to spend money on fun things!
