Show Living Rvi IB Lakeside Review Wednesday, April 1, 1981 Saving Sense Sr; By JANE SAVING SENSE SYSTEM: SEE, SAVE, SORT, SEND, SPEND. SEE those coupons, refund slips, free items, bonus gifts, and premiums. SAVE every coupon, box label, cap inner seal, tab, etc. SORT these into four groups: Food, Household Aids, Personal Aids, Misc. SPEND those coupons to best advantage. SEND for those cash refunds on a regular basis. In the past few weeks, I have received a number of letters from readers asking questions about specific parts of the SAVING SENSE system. For example, one question was what did I mean by saying Save every CARPENTER (sometimes along with free samples.), on pads that are placed close to the item in the store, in boxes placed in some store for swapping or just for the taking if you want them. The idea is to LOOK AND SEE them. There are two kinds of coupons, national brand and coupons. They are both good so dont pass up the coupons. You can make some real savings by using them and buy a lot of products that you need for for refund offers. The more coupons you accumulate, the more variety you will have for your next shopping trip. While you are seriously looking for those coupons, be alert for the refund offers too.

Where one or two percent of the refund offers were utilized during a year's time, now that has grown to as much as ten to twelve percent. People like you are becoming more coupon and refund conscious and more and more people are sending in for them every month. This means that at times the length of time these offers are made is reducing. Where you might have six months before an offer would expire, you now may have a little time as two or three months. So, I say again, read the date carefully, and send in for the refund as soon as possible.
