When register as Clubcard member and shopping in Tesco, they will send you newsletter and dozens of discount coupons claimed that you can spend less and save your money by using these coupons, within a certain period or months. Each coupons have its validity period.
Actually they are not helping you save, but make you spends more. Usually, written on the coupons that if you buy 2 or more on the same items, you will get the price less. People who shopping occasionally are not crazy. We won't buy 10 items that can last months long. The thing might get expires before we use it or consume it.
We are not in panic situation such as epidemic or pandemic that require people to buy stocks for months or years long. We are in peace and prosperity.
If you really want to use these coupons is okay, but there is not necessary for you to go shopping every month and wasting your money to clear out all the coupons that you still have. At the end of the day, you will suffer of unnecessary stock of items in your home. They are not helping you spend less, but they actually help you keep more by spending more. This is some kind of very brilliant business strategy practiced by big supermarkets and grocery stores.

Some people really feel sorry when they not using their coupons while its still valid. But don't think like what this business minded do. We are consumers. We don't sell anything to them. They only wants your money. But we don't do business. Some people like me, I will throw out all the coupons and the newsletter to the garbage.
