Stuck Behind the Coupon Clipper? Try Following Their Lead

Buying groceries is a necessary evil for many of us. Scanning the endless aisles, while navigating them with a rickety cart isn’t the best way to spend a Saturday morning. But, until they invent a fridge that stocks itself, many of us have to make that weekly trip.

Quite possibly, the worst part of the whole experience is waiting in line at the checkout. Removing each item from your cart in order for them all to be scanned, bagged and then returned to the car seems rather redundant and is quite time-consuming. But, again, there really isn’t another way to get around this.

And, finally, getting stuck behind a coupon clipper searching through a stack of odd-shaped pieces of paper to save 10 cents is certain to drive some people to insanity.

However, I’m not writing you today to complain about a trip to the grocery store. Not at all; I’m going to share with you why you should be a little — even a lot more — like that coupon clipper.

Now, coupons can help you save money. Even a few pennies on the dollar add up over time, allowing you to stretch your dollars further and further. But, of course, we all know that.

What you may not know is that by scanning flyers for coupons and keeping an eye out for special deals, you develop a better relationship with money, and, more specifically, your money.

You see, while scanning for coupons and deals, you are actively thinking about the value of each of your dollars and the products you spend them on. Rather than making quick decisions and getting what you want as soon as possible, you are beginning to evaluate your wants. And then you begin to see that what you want isn’t always what you need.

Coupon clippers are also better at organizing their trips to the grocery store. They have a list of items they want and tend to stick to it. Rather than being pulled in by the items placed throughout the store to lure more cash out of our pockets, the coupon clipper often develops tunnel vision set only on the products on their list.

When dollars and cents really count, having a clear vision of what you need is always going to help you steer clear of items that are simply a waste.

Ask anyone with a lot of money. They didn’t get to where they are now by blowing their paychecks at the drop of a hat.

By adopting the mindset of the coupon clipper, you could begin to plug the drain on your leaky bank account.
