Win Some, You lose Some

Day in day out I see these post, of people complaining that they just can’t get the deals the day they come out.  This is what I have to say about that.  That person who did get the deal, who obviously did their research has planned to get that deal and rightfully and has owned it.   I’m sorry that you didn’t get the deal but guess what?? I don’t get every deal either and I’m pretty coupon savvy myself.  So the random comments and outright bitching is so unnecessary.  Because if I bitched about every deal I didn’t get my page would just be called bitch fest.   So what you didn’t find what you were looking for so go to customer service and get your rain check and move on to the next store/deal.  Don’t be afraid to ask a manager a week before if you can preorder.  Make an effort to get what you want.  If you don’t do that much then you have, no room to whine.

Next is the worse comment of all that really chaps my behind are the ones that go off that they work all day and these stay at home moms get all the deals.  I work full time and coupon but I know that these stay at home moms work just as hard if not harder from 8 to 5 and after hours.   You try taking a screaming/tired kid with you shopping.  A Big gold star for the stay at home moms who can coupon and have her children at the same time. 

And the last comment I want to touch base with is, you’re an organized hoarder.  Where do these people think its right to put people on blast, because they posted that they got 40 cans of bug spray for free.  Do you know what that person is going to do with that spray?  Do you walk in their shoes to know if hey they may have a real problem?  Hell who knows what reason they got it for they might be donating it.  But let me tell you something if that person didn’t post the deal would you have known about it?  Being outright rude to them will make that person not want to post another deal again.  Think people! Be kind and courteous to everyone because the next time you need a coupon trading buddy you may have burned a bridge you can’t walk across. 

Sometimes you have to look at couponing as a Game, you win some you lose some but in the end if saved money then we are all winners.
