**Update – Using your comments and a market reach spreadsheet on SmartSource’s site it appears that really good coupons go to papers/areas with subscription levels above 250,000.  I used to think it was something against my state… now I know anyone that doesn’t live in a big city area is in the same boat.  Thanks for helping my little research project!**

I have been curious for a while to see what areas get some of the best coupons.  The past weekend gives us good oppourtunity to see.

In some areas you were lucky enough to get a -$4 off any Maybelline Lip Product in your Red Plum insert.  I left these off the deal lists for this week because I knew that our area would never get that coupon!  I was right.

Will you leave a comment and say what area you are in and whether or not you got that coupon. I’m not asking for specifics, just give the name of the city that your newspaper comes out of and whether it was in there or not.

If you did get the coupon here are the deals for you:

CVS – Maybelline Lip Products are B1G1
buy 2, use 2 coupons and get both Free plus possible overage!

Rite Aid – Maybelline Lip Products are $6 ea
-$4 off coupon
-$2 off Single Check Rebate
Makes 1 FREE!

If you live in South Carolina don’t ever expect any Revlon, Maybelline, Garneir, or L’Oreal cosmetic coupons.  They won’t come, ever…

                  The official insert schedule says that there is not supposed to be an insert this weekend.  Procter & Gamble decided to go against the flow and they are releasing the December coupons in this Sunday’s paper.  Over $75 in coupons.  Want to see the list of what will be in the insert?  Go here.

                  This will be the only coupon insert in this week’s paper.

                  One tip: Always check your Parade Magazine for coupons.  While they are not every week, you will find coupons in there.
