Coupon culture
Hmm. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel recently featured an article about coupon usage by region that made me think about my upbringing (via Common Sense with Money). Check out this list:
I grew up near Buffalo. Not far from Rochester or Syracuse. Only a couple hours from Pittsburgh. Those are four of the ten most coupon-using cities! I wonder how much of my willingness to cramp my arthritic fingers clipping coupons every Sunday comes from the simple fact that I grew up in an area where couponing was socially acceptable.
