Find Others to Trade Coupons With

So many coupons come in the newspaper inserts each week, yet you probably do not use all of them.  I tend to cut all of the coupons and put them in my binder.  The reason being I know that in weeks to come the items might be on sale and I will be able to use the coupon.  However there are many times that when I'm cleaning out my binder that I am throwing away a decent size pile of coupons.  

How can I or you avoid throwing out so many?  Some library's  have baskets to put coupons in that patrons and go through and take what they want.  I have heard of these, but haven't really looked for them in my library.  

More and more people are using coupons.  I find myself putting coupons aside for different ones who could use them.  For me I like that I can help others potentially save by giving them coupons they could use.  

This has me thinking...It would be great to find a group of people to exchange coupons with.  Find others who coupon in your area.  Keep an open dialogue going with them and put coupons aside or exchange coupons they use for something you use.  

If you are not friends with the entire world on social media post an "In such of" post with what coupon you are looking for.  If someone responds that they have it ask them if they would like any coupons in return.  This is one way to get what you are looking for and also help someone else out.

Do not go to Ebay or offer to pay someone for your sought after coupon.
