Yes, it is so true of most coupons… By the time you (remember) to use them, you have still paid more for the product than you usually do when you buy the other brand.
I don’t bother with coupons as I make my own food from scratch- I might pay more if I still had a family of 6, but kids all have their own, so I cook for myself and eat really healthy and enjoy it a LOT! Only things I buy from chains are paper towels, TP, diet soda and things that my organic market ran out of (today was my Greek yogurt and corn on the cob for my bird). I now only indulge in 1 diet soda per day (and enjoy even that more this way, but decided I like only fewer variety).
