I just bought five $10 off a $50 order coupons for Safeway on ebay. They expire 12/08 so I will definitely use them. The total cost was $8.50. I think it was a very good purchase.

I agree. The best thing to do is to look for coupons when you have a specific need. This assures that you will buy only what you need.

Another update. I bought five coupons worth $10 off a $50 purchase at Safeway. Since we shop at Safeway anyway, these were a no-brainer for us. Total cost for the coupons including shipping was $8.50. I just used the first one so I have already recouped my costs. So I went and bought another 15 coupons (enough to last for the rest of the year). I figure I will save around $200 for the year.
