Coupon-Clippers, Unite!

How powerful can a pair of scissors be?  In the hands of coupon-clippers, they can improve the lives of  countless people.  Read about what one woman did, then think about what would happen if many people did this:

A US woman has set herself the goal of feeding 30,000 hungry people using supermarket coupons.

Lauren Puryear, a 29-year-old from New Jersey, said she can feed up to 150 people on $20 (£15) – the equivalent of just 10 pence per person – by combining offers to get the best deal she can.

Ms Puryear said she wanted to reach her 30,000 target by the time she turns 30 next year.

After the death of her grandmother, Ms Puryear started an organisation dedicated to feeding the hungry.

At first she bought food in bulk, either online or from discount grocery chains such as Cosco and BJ’s. But then she realised she could feed many more people if she used coupons.

“I started couponing for food items like spaghetti and meatballs and I was able to get the items for free or for little to no money,” she told New Jersey.com.
