    The places that sell coupons... Where do they get THEIR coupons from? in order to sell... :?:

    They buy multiple copies of the paper in bulk. Rachael at the coupon clippers buys 1000 - 2500 coupies each week. Their Sunday papers are only 50¢ each with all the coupons. Then she recycles the 1000 newspapers to recoup some of the cost. I imagine she gets a discount when she buys the papers since she buys in bulk.

    Hope that helps.

    And doesn't she have an "outfit" that actually does her coupon clipping too now?

    The papers go to a sorting facility first and then her employees separate them and use big paper cutters to cut large batches. It's still alot of work! You are right, nsane...that's alot of clipping! :lol:
