Friday, 11/06/09: First newspaper of the month

Have you noticed that the first Saturday of the month is the biggest one for yardsales? Well, the same is true for coupons. The first weekend of the month, unless there's a holiday (like Labor Day), is typically the biggest one for coupons. Occasionally there are as many as five coupon inserts that Sunday, but the norm is three for us here, one RedPlum, one SmartSource, and one P&G brandsaver. So on the first Sunday you'll definitely want to buy two unless it's a holiday. The coupon value that day is usually well over $300.
