Couponomics

So awhile back Wendy's started their promotional campaign: 3conomics.

Thinking about a nice juicy double stack and saving money today got me thinking, and I say to Wendy's:

I see your 3conomy and I'll raise you one.

I give you Couponomics.
It really consists of three basic yet indispensable components which I shall explain for you.

1) Wendy's Crispy Chicken is so simple that it often is underrated for it's true value, as is the basic coupon, yet both provide me with inexpensive tastiness all the time.

(I get the majority of the coupons I use in inserts that look like these that come in most Sunday papers)


2) Wendy's Double-Stack is a little like Weekly Store Ads:

Match your coupons to sales, and/or (double)stack them with store coupons for the greatest % of savings.


3) Last but certainly not least Wendy's tastiest 3conomic sandwich, the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger, with it's many layers of goodness is akin to the best part of my couponomy:
A good organizational system to keep the many layers of said coupons and ads sorted for easy access and use.

Behold the coupon binder
(by far the best method of organizing coupons):
(When a man saw me and Lincoln at the store today with my binder, detailed grocery list and cell phone, aka calculator, laid out on my grocery cart first he asked me if it was bring-your-kids-to-work-day, then when he realized I was just another customer he said "Holy Coupon! I've never seen anyone as serious as you" I'll take that as a compliment.)


It's really rather simple, see?


And when all the principles of my Couponomy combine magic happens in a very tasty way:


It only cost me $29.31 for over $156 of groceries, and I even got another coupon for 2 free Yoplait yogurts at the register! (That poor cashier didn't even know what hit her when I handed her a fat stack of coupon-kung fu)

Now that's Couponomics my friend,
and that's waaaaay better than fast food.
