The Coupon Rules

Also known as my family motto: NEVER PAY RETAIL. Keeping that in mind will help you down the road.

I will be adding to this list, as more is revealed to me in my endeavors, but I'll list a few things that I already know.

1. Never Pay Retail
2. Always buy the free items or items that you can make a profit on.
3. But as much as you can when an item hits its lowest price

These seem obvious, but the reality is sometimes hard. How do you know when an item is at its lowest. Well, Harris Teeter was tripling coupons this past week, so I safely assumed that all the prices I paid for Betty Crocker fruit snacks was the lowest it would ever go.

    Just an editorial note: I believe the OFFICIAL Boyd motto is: Never buy at retail. Your "never pay retail" is a little weaker of a statement. But, I'll bet you can talk to Alex and turn it into the Holdgate motto...
