I'm Not a Crazy Couponer

Have you guys read all this business about couponing lately? The kind where you can buy $60 worth of groceries for $15 simply by using store sales and coupons. Well I have, and lately I have been trying it out a little here and there. My overall feeling is this, it's a LOT of work and a LOT of rules and too much time. I'll admit it works great on cereal and the process isn't too painful (unlike others). I would have to say that I am name brand oriented when it comes to cereal only because I have had some pretty funky tasting no-name brands.

 Overall this is what I find to be my top probems with it all

#1- I just don't have the time to get online and figure out deals or stop into the store and read through their advert (and I have only been doing this stuff at Kroger which is like Albertson's and you can coupon at many different stores supposedly)

#2- I can't afford to get a Sunday paper to get the weekly inserts and I most definitely don't have time to track them down from other people.

#3- When I do go online and look at what is cheap and for sale a LOT of the so called food that is in there is basically just junk food, chips, pop, fruit roll ups, cookies, crackers etc. Not only that but you have to buy in bulk to make many of the deals worth it and we have NO room for extra food in our condo I go crazy as it is.

#4- I can go in and buy no-name products for literally pennies more (AFTER you apply sales and coupons to the name  brands) then all the couponing and I don't have to do ANYTHING.

#5- Last but not least I just want to go to the store with my grocery list get what I need and get out, if that means I spend 10 extra dollars I guess I just don't care.

I have come to the conclusion that if couponing makes it take longer I'm just not interested. Maybe couponing out West is better, maybe I'm just lazy but my conclusion on the matter is this "if it takes more then 10 extra min to save $10 I'm not interested." This doesn't mean I'm not looking for deals or opposed to those of you who can figure it out I'm just saying it's not for me.
