For those of you that buy extra sunday papers - how many do you buy?

[disney_5]

I just found out that there is a Sunday paper in my area for $2 that has all the coupon inserts in them. Since I love reading the Sunday paper, I picked up a copy and clipped the coupons that I think I will use. I am wondering if anyone here buys more than one copy of the Sunday paper for the coupon inserts and if so how many papers do you buy and how much are they each? I am just starting to use coupons and am just wondering what others do to get the most out of it.

thanks, Jen.

I get 4 total- but my coupon group organized a deal with the paper to get sunday only delivery for $0.50 ea- so it costs me $2 total a week. That's the only way it is cost effect for me.

Most coupon groups will say 1 per person in your household is the rule of thumb. And because I match to BOGO sales- you always want even numbers.

I also find 4 to be the most manageable number for me. It allows me to max out most deals at the drugstore and stock up sufficiently on great grocery sales without going overboard. And I agree, you want an even number for BOGO deals.

I actually only have my subscription to the sunday paper. My mom, inlaws and grandfather all give me their inserts so that is how I end up with 4 sets of coupon inserts each week.
