The reasons why I do them are simple.
- it's free
-I get stuff (for free!)
-I am shopping anyway
Yes I play every game that they do, right now the store ( Albertson's ) is doing the Monopoly game, and yes it takes a little time to open the pieces but no more so then if I was going to cut out coupons would take. With the pieces you get a few different kinds of prices, you may get a percentage or dollar amount coupon off or a completely free item; along with the pieces of the monopoly game to play on the board and try to win other prices.
I found that it's a great way to add some things into my drive pantry because I get them for free, my husband is constantly laughing at me because it doesn't matter that I have received about 20 free gravy mix packets I'm still getting every free gravy mix that I receive the coupon for and adding it to my pantry it's something that doesn't go bad and that you're going to use throughout the year, so Not pick it up for free? The same thing with the tomato sauce I have completely stock these items in my pantry along with every every day items such as free flour, not to mention being able to stock somethings my medicine cabinets like aspirin and ibuprofen that have been free as well. Then there's the free pastries which are just a nice little adding things I wouldn't normally pick up but if it's free yeah I'll pick up a pastry to have at night with my cup of tea. Then there's the actual prices with the monopoly pieces and at this point I have won $5 dollars cash and $5 dollars grocery coupon. Now I know to a lot of people that doesn't seam like much, but as a stay at home mom saving any amount of money can be a great help, it allows me to do other things around my house as well as other things with my daughter and my husband. When you add up the cost of the pantry items it really does add up to big savings there have been times using the coupons I receive and getting the free item that I have saved close to as much as I've spent at the grocery store which is amazing and I'm not talking $5 or $10 but $45 and up.
No that's this particular game that they're doing at this time they also do once at different times of the year were you collect stamps and you receive the free merchandise such as knives or pans with them and I've done that as well and it's great it's a nice way to add in things that I may not order I just purchased even though it might be something I would like, but by collecting the stamps or receive for the shopping I'm doing anyway I have been able to get some things such as knives and convection pans it's a nice little thing for for you to do.
I know that for myself as my daughter gets older I will be incorporating her helping into using these coupons an opening them and making it something that she can learn from as well. You can teach a lot to your children about money management and nutrition by encouraging them to shop with you and do things or like having find what's on the coupon compare it to it not being on sale and they can learn as well as it helps teach him how to save. It also gives them a sense of ownership over the family diet and in the home.
So I say play the games get the stuff #freestuff
