^ what Lizamarie said.
Unless you actually use them, it's a waste of coupons/money to use them on the covers for most people (like myself).
I'd rather use the coupon on something better rather than make a profit.
Thats just my opinion, anyway.

I use them for the toilet seat covers and after taxes you actually only get a 61 cent overage per coupon. I am part of a large festival that runs for 7 days and has about 12 porta poties each day for all the people. All the seat covers I use for overages are going to them. I also use the coupon at SDM for the charmin purse sized toilet paper, there is no overages there but when you need to get to $50 for extra points days these are great AND don't tell me there has never been a time you didn't get into a bathroom stall and not wish you had checked there was toilet paper first :D. Also you can get the tide for sink washing your clothes when traveling at SDM with the coupon and only end up paying 50 cents for 3 of them, these too come in handy and help get you to that $50 without tonnes of money coming out of your pocket while still getting useful items. So yes some people would rather use them for other items, however being low income and yet still finding a way to donate the seat covers, I use them to help pay the food bill. I have to, it is how I have taken my son and I from needing the food bank to helping the food bank and still making sure we have food to eat. Some of us NEED to use the overages for our food budgets to actually make it to the end of the month with food on the shelves.

I guess it's just because of where I live that the one coupon I get, the 60-odd cents isn't worth it. It won't make or break my budget, you know?
That's cool about donating to the fair. The employees/volunteers would be the ones to make use of it I gather. Though are the porta potties they get higher than normal? I'm 5'2" and have never had to sit on one before. And I go to a lot of events/concerts over the summer lol. A lot of people "miss" the hole so even the seat gets disgusting so the paper just soaks up all the crap. Which I still wouldn't sit on, if you know what I mean. The kids that are too short just stand on them (we're supposed to, too, but I'm lazy, haha).

I don't attack on SC. Well, I could, but it's not worth it since people can know where I live LOL. It's not my nature anyway.
I just figured the OP should know since it is a great coupon that can be used on necessary household items. And since they're starting, they might not be able to get more than one unless they start trading.
For me, I only have access to one. I don't get inserts and can only use one address.

Ummmm, I did not think it was an attack, and certainly not aimed AT me, she didn't use my name, or anything at all. I was just stating as a person who does use that coupon for that reason there is a good use for them, how I use them, why and where everything gets donated ect. As well I added in other cheap but good ways to use the coupon. Yes I am poor, yes I NEED overages, but in no way did I think that her post was directed at me personally in any way at all. I was just posting the other side of the coin.
I trade for these coupons A LOT, as you can see by my trade rating starting just in Nov I have made tonnes of trades for all sorts of different coupons so I use 10 of these at a time not 1.
So everyone can relax, I am not upset, I do not feel attacked, just stating how I use them and why.Last edited by Panthea; Tue, Jan 31st, 2012 at 06:16 PM.

I wish I could find these seat covers at my Wal-Mart. Either they don't sell them...or someone who had a bunch of coupons beat me to them. I would love to have some of these to keep in my purse!
