Slow down & Maintain

After one year of couponing I have enough of a stockpile that I really don't have to worry too much about getting anything. Now it's all about maintenance- which is good because if I was still couponing like I was when I first began, I would be so irate with the lack of good deals and now this: Brita Not Honoring Rebate
I'm lucky I got my Brita pitcher deal when they had it in the fall of last year (and I finally got the check this year!!) so I really didn't care if I missed the boat on the second Brita rebate deal...and now I'm really glad I missed the boat because Brita decided to renege on their word. I guess they didn't realize that the pressures of a bad economy will make people less careless about rebates! I really feel upset for the people who got screwed over by this. And yeah, it's probably going to be a sucky year four couponers in general.
Anyways, I'm just grateful to God for His guidance with my couponing & stockpiling so that now I've gotten to a point where I can skip a week or two until the really good deals come along...so I don't have to jump at the next great super big deal...and then wind up getting screwd.
