Most people in SoFLA know, The Sun Sentinel has the best coupons in it. For some reason Miami Herald only carries RedPlum and as great as the RP coupons are, they do not compare to the price, in my opinion. The Sun Sentinel Always has Red Plum and SmartSource(and P&G when it's suppose to be), If they missed a RP there is usually an extra SS therefore you do not feel left out...
I did feel left out though... Yesterday... The Paper and the stores that sell the paper have signs Advertising "Coupons in Saturdays Paper starting Oct. 15!!" Come yesterday and there was no coupons... Everyone asks why? Where are they? I thought the Coupons were supposed to be in it, isn't it?!?! I was not the only person who left the store utterly disappointed. (This is the type of thing that has made me stop couponing in the past)... I read the sign many times before I finally understood. In not so many words and TOTALLY beating around the bush, they said you had to be a subscriber to get the coupons earlier.
I went home upset and determined. I decided to see how much a subscription was and was shocked that for a 13week subscription it was nearly $4 more than the store(if you buy Sunday's paper they have a deal for 80cents an issue for weekend subscribers, this still leads to about a $1.50 more then inside the store). Why? Because you are buying Saturday and Sunday's papers. I already feel horrible with how much paper I use for buying the WHOLE newpaper just to get the coupons, so why would I want to spend more and make more waste just to have the convenince of the coupons coming to my house early? I think I'll stick with my Sunday in-store papers with coupons...
Sorry this was a bit of a vent and to let you know what the deal is with Coupons in the SunSentinel.
