Just wondering since it is on sale right now for $10.00 if any of you use it and should I pick one up?

Thanks,

It depends on how much you think you will use it. I bought a 2004 Entertainment book for my area and used it to rent a car from National in Orlando. The savings there paid for the book at full price. Getting the Orlando book means you can only use it there while on vacation.

I bought one for I think about $9 - I figure I'll be down there for over 1 week in September, so I will definately use enough coupons/deals to pay for the $9 I spent. It won't take much to make it up.

A co-worker and I shared the cost of one and paid $5 each. He used it first and took very few coupons and offers but wrote in the book his savings and they totalled well over a hundred dollars.

The day after he turned the book over to me I noticed the Target new prescription coupon and lo and behold I needed to fill a scrip that day so just transferred it to Target (paid my $10 insurance co-pay) and got my $10 gift card and purchased some household items that I needed anyway. So I've already got my money back and haven't even gone to Orlando yet. Plus, I noticed some Blockbuster coupons that can be used anywhere too.

I say go for it!

well I got three diff books. One for Mass, ONe for NH and one for orlando. The reason is the cards in the front of the book are not restricted to the region you buy. They use the same card all over the country so if you buy the book, go on the website and see what number corresponds with the card restaurants in your area. I spent 45. oo on three books and I have saved well over 90 at this point and I do not go away until end of July. Be sure to check out the on line coupons too. Those are the ones that are too late to make it in the book and they are only good for two weeks after you print so be careful.

Do you buy it when you get there or order it online?
