We forget about them until we need them. After we're done with them, we move on forget them all over again. It's funny though, because each time you use a coupon, you feel a little sense of accomplishment. "Ooooh, la, la, I just saved a dollar," you think, as you purchase your $1.00 of pizza. I think you almost get a feeling that you ARE winning in life, even if for only a minute. All those minutes, seconds, moments of happiness, they add up. It is only a little money you are saving, but it's not about the money, in reality. It's about the fact that you are getting ahead, saving, doing good for yourself. Those feelings are hard to come by in large doses. But coupons, they get the job done--a dollar at a time.
