I hardly do...only when i really couldn't find any coupons that I give up. I don't like it when there are stuff that I need to buy but just really can't find coupons for them. I love to shop after I get coupons from the mail and I happen to need to buy some stuff from that particular store. I also like looking up for coupon codes online and printable coupons. Sometimes i combine them with gift certificates. If I don't have coupons at all I sometimes wait until the stuff i need to buy go on sale. Well sometimes i just buy them without coupons cause I'm afraid they get sold out...especially clothes! I think it's always better and wise though to shop with coupons especially when items are already on sale. It also gives me some self-control on impulse shopping. lol How about you?

Yes, coupons are not very common where I live, so I have to. I am still happy when I do have a chance to use coupons, but most of the times I shop without them. I really wish coupons would become more common where I live though!

I try to save my coupons to use with sales but it seems they time it so that the item goes on sale just after the coupon expires. I really need to get myself better organized so that I can optimize my coupon usage.

Coupons are nice to have. They can really save you lots of money. I myself use coupons and buy things that are on sale. Sometimes, even if I have items in stock and I get coupons for the same item. I will still buy them before the coupon expires.
Happy Shopping

I wonder how you guys really saves having a coupon. Usually here in the Philippines they will have a several coupons for specific product and services which you really don't need or store that you won't find just anywhere. And you will think that it is not really a coupon but just a promotion; having only 5% discount with a a short period of time in expiration. And mostly those coupons becomes worthless and senseless.
