[Ohio-talk] Great Deal with Coupon Books

Thu Nov 15 13:48:57 UTC 2012

Hi Carol,
You are right! I was telling someone about your good deal with the sheets.
I think I might have a buyer for the Coupon Book next year.
I gave them your comparison and that seemed to click.
You're right I would love them.
Thanks,

Colleen Roth

> Just think of the savings you can get. I do not shop there normally so it's a treat to buy things there on sale and even better when you can use a coupon or two.

> > Thanks for the great testimonial!  There were definitely some great buys.  Next time I will reserve more time to search for even  more deals.  One thing I did get was a Celaphon oven mitt regular price of $15, my price $1.99.  Plus my fleece sheets which were already marked down from $90 to $44 for the sale and then the coupon in book made them $29.99, but the additional coupon made them only $19.99 each!  That was two of my great bargins.  The sheets are awesome!  Well made, wash well and warm and fuzzy like kittens!
