    Yes I agree, keep on couponing. Sometimes there are mean and nasty people out there, but try not to let others get you upset or sad. If you keep reading in this place, you will learn good ideas and hints and tips. At the store, sometimes you will find rude people. Try to ignore them and do what you know is right in your heart. We are all behind you to support you on here. Do not be worried about your spelling on here, I was able to understand your story.

    Take care and try to keep up a good spirit inside of you.

    I had someone yelling on Friday, I understand why you feel very upset. Are you able to shop at Walmart, Giant tiger and Shoppers Drug Mart as well as some of the grocery store chains like Food basics or Sobeys, Freshco or something like that. Sometimes if you shop at certain places, they don't really understand how coupons work. Is there a misunderstanding due to different languages? If so it might help to get someone at your church who can take you to a different place to shop or help with communicating if necessary.. I don't think you should give up but if you have too many problems and don't know why, it may just be a misunderstanding somewhere. If you can find some people in your area that coupon too, that can help. To find your area look at the local tab and then pick the province you are in and the city. Sometimes coupon people get together and share ideas on how to use the coupons to get the best value for your money. Some of us got together tonight and did that. We shared coupons and ideas and had fun.

    It is hard sometimes to coupon, people can be mean but your heart is good, try not to let them wear you down.

    I reread your post again and I think I read it incorrectly the first time. You should be able to buy several unless the stores policy has limits. You could ask to talk to the manager to find out if there are limits. I can understand why your friend was shaking especially if her English isnt great because I'm English and there have been times I have been shaking. Its not easy to coupon but worth it in savings if we have the courage and strength to do it. My heart feels sad for yours because you really want to help and it seems that people are giving you a hard time for no reason. I'm sorry
