Ha! So I went to WM tonight to use up my last free cheese WUB Old El Paso ( a few tears for that beloved coupon ). Anyway, afterwards, DH and I went to dinner in NDG and I had to mail some letters at Pharmaprix beforehand. I went down the body wash aisle and can you BELIEVE it, not only were there NONE of those Dove Go Fresh coupons anymore, but the whole freakin' setup (the little utilsource thingy) was bare, ripped of everything. How long has that coupon even been out? A week max?
I wanted to pick a few more up since I figured I had SOME time before they all disappear, but I guess now if we see a coupon we really like, gotta think hard before only taking 2, 'cause no guarantee it will be there later

I'm new to couponing and even I know about courtesy! I haven't had this experience yet but feel bad for you that have. It's horrible how good intentions can be ruined by some greedy people.

I guess i'm missing something because i only thought the smartsource coupons were found online and in the newspapers. I've never seen a whole set up that said smartsource. In the past, i've pm members when some have had trouble finding a specific coupon or a really popular product (i.e.Finish detergent @ Maxi). It sucks that we have to do this. i can't believe the Go Fresh Dove are already empty. It just doesn't make sense. If i want to take more than 2-3 coupons, i will usually try a different location. But a whole brand new tear pad! Come on!

People's greed shocks me! Those rotten apples, misers, will spoil the reputation of couponers who follow the good practices of the fine art of couponing. Ripping a whole tear pad is just unacceptable.
My two cents.

These coupons came out just last week and it seems they are all gone. Same thing happened at my IGA last month, I went the day they put them out and the next morning they were all gone including 100 supebowl booklets.

I hate reading all these negative stories ! People should have at least a sense of sharing or community with these coupons. The coupon tearpads put out contain literally hundreds of coupons and no one person needs ALL of them !
It baffles me that people are willing to take all these coupons home and then when they expire just throw them all in garbage, or try to trade them, or do whatever they do with them, instead of giving others a chance to take a few of each.
Case in point: Just last night I was at IGA with DH and DS doing some groceries. There were some new tearpad coupons out (Kozyshack, Lipton tea, aMooZa, Whiskas, etc ...) I walked by the fridge where they keep the Kozyshack puddings and saw an older woman taking not ONE but BOTH tear pads, pretty much ripping even the clips to get them off. I respect people's right to take coupons, but when you're the only one getting any, it's downright selfish. Last summer I had a run in with the same woman over some Pom Bread coupons. There were booklets on top of the rack of Pom Bread and she picked up ALL of them. I actually approached her and asked her if I could have just a couple as well, (there must have been at least 30 or 40 booklets) and she actually refused !
Most of the stores around my house barely even put out coupons anymore, or they are gone so quickly that I never find any anyways. Thank goodness for good friends or coupon meetups otherwise I would be coupon broke !
Eventually, hopefully, others will learn to share

It is a mysterious and elusive booklet that is very rarely seen !
Actually, it has a bunch of coupons in it that expire at the end of March, mostly 'Superbowl Party' Items like Villaggio Buns, Pom Pitas and Tortillas, Scneider's Grillem's, Hot Rods, Pepperettes, Sausages and I think Frank's Red Hot and Mustard. I think I may be missing a coupon in there that I can't remember off the top of my head at the moment, but they have been reportedly found on special displays advertising the booklet (IGA had a Villaggio display). I never found them but a friend of mine did and gave me a few !

OMG! I totally missed this coupon. I even don't know about it. Too late for me.
Coupons are a good way to save money for me. But I don't want to give hard time to people by taking the whole tearpad. I have to do grocery for 8 persons here (and sometimes more) and I always take only few coupons. Never the whole thing.More savings and tips? Go see this site.
