So I buy coupons. OK, I don't actually buy coupons. I pay for the time to clip, sort and mail the coupons. So I buy a coupon broker's time, and get the coupons for free. I don't have good newspapers around here, so my ability to get the coupons free in the weekly inserts in the Sunday paper is pretty small, so I'm thankful for the coupon sellers that charge me for their time and effort. It gives me the opportunity to save more money for my family's grocery budget.
Anyway, in the last few weeks, I have bought a lot of coupons on ebay. I guess I should say ordering coupons, since I'm not buying the Q's, but the time of the broker. Again.
Anyway, one of the folks I ordered coupons from, I got two batches, and they arrived sometime in the last couple of days. One of them was in a different envelope, having been rewrapped by the post office. Seems the envelope ripped in shipping and they plopped it in another envelope and sent it on it's way. It was a pretty significant rip. The thing is, this ebay seller took the five seconds to wrap the coupons in a separate piece of paper. Only one other seller did that. But this seller, because she took the time to wrap it, averted the loss of my coupons. That little act, I'm sure, prevented my coupons from being strewn all over the place when the envelope got ripped. I really appreciate effort like that, so I wanted to share it with you all.
Here's her link.
