[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1547445, member: 7157"] BB, my initial post was in jest, but when I got serious, I was using the example of someone taking an hour and half to go through coupons at the checkout counter. Maybe it's just me, but that seems pretty excessive. I'm all for people using coupons to shave some money off their total bill - heck, I've used coupons myself - but I've also been in a situation where there weren't enough people in the store for more than one checkout counter to be open, so I was stuck waiting for this one woman searching through her purse for coupons and then checking them against what she wanted to purchase. Then there have been times when a number of checkout lanes were operating, but the lines at each were long, so it became a question of "Do I give up my spot behind this couponer and go to the rear of a long line, or will this person finish anytime soon?" So while I'm in favor of saving money, I have to question the extremes to which people will go to do that (i.e., an hour and half??), if it means inconveniencing other people to an extent that might seem - well, inconsiderate.
