The coupons were good until the end of the following year - so about 15 months of use. I did use lots of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1884115 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 10:46:35 +0000 Alivoo01 1884115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsRcCar: I like those! I feel like those are worth it given you frequent the stated restaurants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1884092 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 10:29:28 +0000 MrsRcCar 1884092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The school around here has local business discount card. They are great! Plus a huge bonus for us is they are only 5 dollars. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1884060 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 10:14:47 +0000 Mrsbells 1884060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: oh that's not bad..

How much do yours cost? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883491 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 20:39:40 +0000 Grace 1883491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought one. It pays for itself with the discounts to grocery stores alone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883488 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 20:37:26 +0000 Cole 1883488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got a card from a local school and it has discounts that are reusable for a year to about a dozen local retailers. It will pay for itself many times over since in this case they are not places that usually offer coupons (like 15% off all orders at our favorite takeout place and a free drink with sandwich at the deli we go to weekly.) </p> <p>Can you look through the coupon book in advance? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883451 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 20:17:52 +0000 mrsjyw 1883451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought it one year, then MIL started buying us the entertainment book every year :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883326 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 18:27:46 +0000 Andrea 1883326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it to support the schools. It definitely pays for itself, but I have a terrible memory when it comes to using coupons so it doesn't help me. I consider it a donation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883264 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 17:34:11 +0000 Dandelion 1883264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, to support the schools. It more than pays for itself, if you frequent the places in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883136 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 15:40:08 +0000 tororojo 1883136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom buys them and shares the coupons w/me sometimes. The ones she gets usually have some decent grocery store coupons ($10 off of $50) but most are for smaller businesses. Could be a good deal if you like to eat out or want to try new things. Or to get your co-worker off your back...my mom gives the books as gifts sometimes as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-buy-coupon-books#post-1883130 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 15:35:02 +0000 Mrsbells 1883130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A coworker is trying to convince everyone to buy these coupon books from her child’s school. I feel like I shouldn’t have to pay for coupons, especially since most of them are available free these days online and such… Is it worth it, in your opinion? </p>
