I sent DH to go buy some last-minute things at the grocery store while I was preparing for our dinner guests. He says to me, we need milk, so I give him the $1.50 milk q for Smart Balance. He also offered to buy me some papers (early edition only costs $1). He comes home all in a fluster because he says while he was putting the groceries in the car, the papers all flew away (it was really blustery today) and he had to go chase the papers. He said people must have thought he was crazy going after the coupons. Okay, I was laughing at that point. As long as he got all the inserts, I was fine with that. But then he whipped out the coupon for the milk and said that he forgot to use it. Grrrr....that's when I got mad. How could he not remember to use the coupon!?

LOL well I have told the story of my poor dh tring to use Q's for the first time..coming home all excited and proud only to realize he got the WRONG product that was NOT on sale...the Q's worked but we ended up paying TWICE what it would have cost without Q's ![]() It broke his heart! Give your dh a break...at least he remembered the inserts..and chased them down!

Thanks so much for the laugh!! ![]() At least it was only 1 coupon! Imagine sending him to the store to get the mega deal, him not buying the right itmes and then not even using the q's!! See, it could be worse!

Aw it happens where we forget to use certain coupons sometimes. At least he made the effort to chase down the inserts (I am not sure that my hubby would have done the same! LOL)

That really is funny. My husband doesn't go to the store so at least he gave it his best shot for you.

Haha, did he forget to use the coupon by accident or on purpose? DH loves that I use coupons, but is too embarrassed to use them himself (unless they're for coke.... ) - I could see him telling me that he "forgot" ![]() At least he's sweet enough to get you inserts - kudos to him for that!

Lol.. What a nice guy chasing after all those inserts.. Leave the milk coupon alone. He's probably tired from chasing Red Plum and SmartSource..you know your other kids =)

LOL that's a great story reminds me of something that would happen with my bf... He LOVES how much money we save and wants to use as many coupons as possible but if he has to use them I have to spell it all out for him and if he gets distracted forget! At least he got all your inserts! |

I feel your pain! The only Q's I give my DH now are for gasoline. Grocery stores - not even going to try it. When he would remember, he would hand them to the cashier right at the beginning. 50% of the time, yes half of the time, the cashier wouldn't remember to process them, he wouldn't ask about them because he figured he handed them over, his work was done, and of course comes home; I look at the receipt and ZERO coupons were taken off.
