I just got my new magazine and saw the coupons that could be cut out and used. I was just wondering how many of you do this. I normally don't buy magazines unless they have good resources in them and then I keep them for future use. I just can't imagine cutting mine up. Does anyone else feel like I do?

Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

Sorry, I just realized that I made a mistake in the title. I meant out of the magazine.

No I couldn't think of cutting out the coupons I love to save the mags and look up things in past magazines.

So funny that you should post this! As I was reading and completely enjoying my latest issue of MJF, I thought just that.. WHO would actually CUT this beautiful magazine? Dont get me wrong- I DO clip coupons, but certainly not from my Farmgirl Bible! LOL

I'm so glad you brought that up! I'm the same way - I love my magazines too much to clip from them! I couldn't destroy them any more than I could cut up a book! It's a shame how advertisers don't permit you to copy the coupons for use. We pass up/miss out on good deals because we don't clip, and they lose out on valuable sales.

I agree - there was a coupon I wanted to use in the last issue, but just couldn't bring myself to cut a hole in the magazine! Maybe we should bring this up to Maryjane and see if there is a solution - online coupons or something like that?

I'm relieved that I am not the only one who thinks this way. I think they should list a Mary Janes code number in her magazine and we could print that off the computer. One of the things I enjoy about her magazine is that there are not a lot of adds stuck between the pages. I have picked some of the popular magazines on the stands and can't even flip through them because they are so full of adds. I never buy them.

I would love to use those coupons .. I have been using coupons for years... but there is NO WAY I am cutting up my MJF to be able to use a coupon. Perhaps they should place all the coupons in the back on a separate page so those of us who would like to keep our magazines complete can.
Just an idea.

I don't clip from any of my favorite magazines. Well that would be all the magazines I receive. I guess I don't clip coupons from magazines.

I would not cut my mags either. Maybe Maryjane will find a different way to help us save. I'll bet she will.

i have to even go so far as to say that i won't share my MJF mag--my mother wanted to read one and she ha sa nasty habit of turning up or down the corners of a page- i fobade her to do so and she couldn'ttake the pressure so she won't ask to borrow mjf anymore...tho she does call me at work to tell me that "mary jane is here' on days that it comes in the mail!
