Comment Palooza!

Dear anonymous meany-head commenter:
You suck.  I did not publish your comment because I will not have you swearing at me.  How RUDE!
It is not your business how I donate my time or money to anything. It should not matter to you how often, to whom, or how I donate.  I was told to do good works because they make you feel good - not so you can brag about them.  [Though, bragging is awesome when it's done like this. Thanks for sharing about Family Promise, Karen.  I'll definitely be looking into it more.] 
Also, I don't know how your household works, but 32 rolls of toilet paper is SO not more than my family can possibly use.  It's probably 2 or 3 months worth.

Ashley, Here's a little more on how I do the coupons:

Sunday, the Washington Post delivers four Sunday papers (Got a deal for 59 cents per paper, roughly the newsstand cost of one.) and Hubband and I go through to separate the Redplum/smart source/P&G inserts.  Piling like pages.  Then I go through, cut all coupons at the same time and file them in my binder.
I also peruse the weekly circulars to pair up sales with the coupons.  Then I make a quick note of what/where/when I need to use and plan accordingly.

The extra papers are driven across the street to the homeless shelter.  (Because we're awesome, but not awesome enough to read the same paper four times over.) 

My trip to Bloom was fabulous, because on the first and seventh of the month they doubled coupons up to $1.99 - so I intentionally took my bigger coupons in and hit their matching sales.

The "one coupon per purchase" means one coupon per item not per transaction.  (If they mean transaction - they'll say it).

Also, most stores will have items on sale and/or a store coupon for the item that can be paired with the manufacturers coupon (found in the paper).

Most stores also double smaller coupons, regularly.  Our favorite grocery store doubles coupons up to 99 cents.
Hopefully that answers your question.  If not, ask again.  :)

Tricia,
I appreciate all the wonderful comments!  It's good to hear from you.

To everybody else that comments... Is your brain leaking out of your ears yet?  Reading me too much might cause your brain to melt!  But thanks for taking the risk.
