Sometimes I dream of couponing. Once in awhile they are good dreams, but then there are the bad ones. I have actually woken in a heart-racing panic because there was a hot deal to be had at the store and I was not be able to find it or get it!! Buy hey…at least I was still wearing clothes in my dream…. I don’t have these dreams as much as I used to anymore, but during my first year of couponing they came frequently.
Do you ever dream of coupon shopping or scoring a deal at the store? Are they good ones or bad ones?

My cousin introduced me to coupons and I too have dreams. But…mine are about catalina’s. I set my alarms on my phone to wake up and whenever the alarm goes off, in my dream a catalina prints out. Too bad its not real because some of the catalina’s end up being pretty good:)

I work the night shift so I SHOULD be sleeping during the day when i get home but I have a hard time sleeping because I keep waking up thinking that if I don’t hurry and get to the store, I’m going to miss out on a good deal. I wish I could say this didn’t happen very often…..but it happens very frequently! Kinda pathetic!!

I am fairly new to couponing so it’s still a bit overwhelming and I have dreams about it frequently, if my matchups are going to work, then I dream that I get to the line and load up all of my stuff and I actually don’t have the key coupon (s) that I need, so I end up paying extra OOP!!! It’s terrifying HA HA

I haven’t dreamed about it (yet) but I do often have a hard time getting to sleep when I know there is a big sale starting the next day. I lay there plotting my strategy and worrying about whether I have all my coupons in order.

I too dream about couponing, but they are never good dreams….they are about the nasty cashier or the wrong coupons or forgetting coupons or just other crazy stuff that DOES happen. It is usually the night beofre I am going to go out and bust all the deals the next day!

Ha ha ha…Yes I have dreamed of couponing before! Most of mine have been great dreams..where I find something for free.

That’s so funny that you posted this! My husband and I just talked about this, Saturday morning. I dream up coupon deals. I work them out in my head when I am sleeping. Especially if I had made a run that day, I go over the numbers again in my head to make sure verything went right. I told my husband this on Saturday and he laughed at me. So, my response to that was, well do you dream about work? My one of my jobs as a housewife is to make the money you made last, therefore, I am just dreaming about my job, just like you! 😉
