Hunt for tearpads and tear pad hoarders!!!

[danifish]

Hey Londoners,

Just wondering which Food Basics are usually good for finding tearpads??

I don't want to rant again, but I have gone to about 5 different Metros over the past week or so and again only EMPTY tear pads...

I'm starting to think we have crazy coupon hoarders... Again let's remember our tear pad etiquette!!!!! Take only what you will use!!!!!!!

I haven't even been to metro because the last time coupons came out they were gone in a day. I have in the past found coupons at food basics on wonderland and commissioners and I know people find some at Bradley and Ernest.

I only saw empty tear pads at freshco last week too

I give up finding coupons in london, since we travel a lot to near kingston/peterborough to visit my MIL I have been very lucky over the past month to find most of the new tear pads --- so sad I have to go so far away to find coupons

BTW off topic not sure if anyone knows the answer to this but I heard on another forum about some door hangers that were sent out last week (NOT the pickles/relish) but i don't know what they are and I tried asking on that forum and everyone is so HUSH HUSH I think it was Ivory snow and others but not 100% sure -- any info would be awesome thx

Keep me posted on what "bare minimums" you are looking for! I'll keep an eye for you too!!

[danifish]

I'm glad that it's not just me having this problem. I was hesitant to post this, but it's been frustrating finding everything empty!

[javamama1974]

Ok so I'm going to put this out there -- I would LOVE to have some sort of coupon get together soon --- is there any plans of a coupon swap in the near furture

[MrsSunshine]

TWO! holy crap dani.. ya gotta keep him from getting older.. basically the bare minimums for us are now cereal, cheese, tide, manual toothbrushes/toothpaste... tresemme(normal). no more stockpiling for us.

Tear pads, I remember from last year that June-July-aug it is a hard time to find coupons, this months in May..... FB, Pharma even SDM has not posted tear pads. I was today morning at FB Bradley and no signals of new tear pads, I went to drop my envies to PP and the same "No tear pads"
Tell me what you think

If I have extras I will share(not that I get door hangers often). I think the hoarding has been caused by sharing coupon location. Not to sound harsh but I think we should share with our "close friends" shall I say and not necessarily our neighbours. Not that we don't like to share but it's getting out of hand. I find myself saving a little less lately not being able to find what I need or having to trade far, far away for things I know exist in my own city!

I couldn't believe it, today at NF at huron/highbury, I found a tearpad! I've been shopping there for almost 10 years, and have never seen one before. I only grabbed 2 coupons, there were 3 tear pads, so I'd hope there would still be some.
It was for $1 off any 4 campbells soups.

I was looking though some of the brags today .....How depressing to see so many people bragging about how many of one product the bought with um-teen amounts of coupons! That's why we can't find one coupon they are getting enough for the neighbours,family and friends. Really 50-60 cans of minute maid coupons in one shop I would be happy to have a weeks worth? Sicking that so many people think that it's great to brag about using their 60 coupons in one shop? When single parents,Seniors people who need a break at the till can't even get one coupon to help!
All I have to say to the hoards of tear pads is......It's nothing to be proud of!!!!!!!
