Finding More Good Coupons

I call it the "Johnny Appleseed" method: Each week put unwanted coupons in an envelope. Whenever you leave home, wherever you go, take the envelope with you. Surprise your friends and neighbors (the ones who are not already saving coupons for you), by offering them the envelope with a simple: "take out any coupons you can use."

When they have removed from the envelope several coupons they
can use and you see the smile spread across their faces, ask them to put their unwanted coupons in envelopes and keep them handy just the way you are doing. You just planted the seed for a simple way to exchange coupons. With a little luck, the next time you meet that person, she will have an envelope full of coupons for you to go through.

Why be bashful? You have nothing to lose. Carrying around
that envelope of coupons is no big deal. Pleasantly surprise a
few people you know and they may turn out to be excellent
sources for the coupons you can use.

Be careful in buying coupons on eBay. Counterfeit coupons are a real problem!
