Why don't you use coupons?

My reasons:
-Can't find them (where the hell do they hide)
-Too much time to browse the Sunday newspaper (takes in average 1h30-2h00)
-Very few are for non-processed, organic, bulk food or produce
-Trouble keeping track of them (what do I have when are the expiration date)
-Don't have them on hand when needed
