10. I sign up for any emailing list that promises coupons on your birthday
9. I took a couponing class and thought I could have taught it

6. I have envied someone else's coupons
5. Once I "bought" 46 boxes in one transaction because it was FREE
4. I get more than one Sunday paper delivered
3. I complain if any coupons are missing from the above mentioned papers
2. I shudder when I have to spend actual money on food
1. I know the coupon policy for the stores in my area and have had them faxed to me.

Love it! I think most of us on the GC would agree with every item on your list.

Oh goodness, let me count the ways!
1. I can barely get stuff into my purse because of my bulging accordian coupon holder.
2. Sunday mornings are reserved exclusively for hounding. Gotta go get my papers!
3. I know the location of the nearest CVS's, Walgreens and Rite Aids from home, work, my parents' house and my boyfriend's house.
4. I have more CVS and Walgreens plastic bags than I know what to do with.
5. My closets are bursting at the seams with freebies.
6. I check in with the GC thread and HCW almost every day.
7. For a while, I had a serious blister on my coupon-cuttin' finger. My family laughed at me.
8. I sustained a deep cut on my finger while cutting out a UPC code on a box of granola bars. My family laughed some more.
9. I have bought items I have absolutely no use for just because they were free - Rogaine, Just for Men hair color, diabetes monitors, etc.
10. How could I not be addicted? Its so much fun!!
Because I can't stay out of the stores! :-)
I envy your $4.00 Pace coupon. I have been trying to win with no success. So when is the popcorn party at your house?
Frugalsuz - I love that - totally made me laugh.
Precious - I only got 1 of the coupons and I keep playing their online game trying to win another one! Any time you want a popcorn party - come on over!
#2--I can totally relate to that one. Especially after I've stockpiled a lot of free something. Right now, Borden cheese is on sale at Jewel for $2/bag...and I laugh. They want me to pay for cheese? With money? Riiiigghhhtt.
TOO FUNNy! I'm still pointing at numbers 6,7, 1, yelling that's me! That's me!
This is so true! #7 is no laughing matter! ;)
