I live in a weird area, Cheri. The paper ads I get via snail mail are
not for nearby stores. Unless you count 50-75 miles as nearby. And
they're never for anything I want or need. I'm not in the market for
furniture from an outlet in Bluffton. The paper coupons are often for
restaurants, e.g. $10 off at some teppankaki grill in Rincon. I've
heard of Rincon. Never actually been there. I certainly won't be
dining there. LOL Useless waste of paper.

Yes, I can see that, here the stores are all within a couple of miles from
me, Safeway, Smart and Final, S-Mart, Food 4 Less, Raley's, and so on. I
don't care to shop so much at Walmart, Costco, and the like because the
stores are just too big for me to get around easily in. I do get the
specials online, rewards etc., but I enjoy them like a newspaper I guess.
Sort of like how you like to handle a book instead of a Kindle or something,
and I like to clip coupons that I use. I have them in my purse and don't
have to add them and print out a list.

Yep. I can't remember the last time I got a useful paper coupon except for a
few specific to stores/
