Lunch coupon

A few weeks ago I signed up for a free Chik-fil-a sandwich coupon and it came in the mail yesterday. I just checked the coupon website and unfortunately the link is no longer active ( I was going to try to get another coupon). Anyway, I am going to eat lunch at Chik-fil-a today on the house :) I am very good about redeeming rebates and sending away for coupons like that. If it is something that I would normally buy then it only makes sense. Currently I am awaiting the receipt of a $15 rebate for buying 6 bottles of wine. The 6 bottles cost me about $35 so the rebate is a substantial savings. Many people feel that rebates and coupons are not worth the time but if you are diligent about them they can be a really $$$ saver. When I moved into my townhouse last year I painted some of the walls and the paint I used was about $20 per gallon. I bought my paint when there was a $5 rebate so I got about $25 in rebates back. Running a Quicken report for rebates shows that I have received $1,526 in rebates in the past 13 years. Not too bad.
