We clip and file our coupons and use them for the items on our shopping list. Couponing became even more fruitful when a local supermarket began printing four special triple coupons in the newspaper. When turned in at the checkout coiinter, each of these coupons triples the value of a regular manufacturers' coupon. I purchase four newspapers each food day, and when we go shopping together, each of us have enjoyed these triple savings. Along with our other coupons, we have been able to save more than $16 on every shopping trip. When we get back from the supermarket, we all get together and cook up a few of our bargains. I recently started showing them how to send for manufacturers' refund offers. They are excited by the many opportunities to save even more money. I know that when they are on their own, smart shop ping will be one of the things that will bring them great satisfaction. I also want to mention that we read your column together. It has been a great help. - Geraldine K., New Jersey.

When it comes to smart shopping and saving money, they are very "han- dicapable." Thank you for your letter and keep up the good work. Dear June: I recently at tended a banquet with my husband and I didn't know any of the other people at our table. During dinner, the woman next to me asked what I did with my free time. At first I was afraid to admit that I was an avid couponer and refunder. But a few minutes later something came up about coupons and refunds and she made a com ment that showed she knew a lot about them. Then the man sitting next to her said that his ' wife had a whole room devoted to box tops and labels. The young couple next to him started laughing and said they both were into refunding; her mother-in-law had gotten them started. My husband couldn't believe it. Four out of four families sitting at the table, all from different parts of Ohio, were refunders. I think it made a believer out of him. I only wish we had all brought some refund forms to trade! - W.Y., Bur- bank, Ohio. Dear W.Y.: I often wish there was a pin we could all wear that identified us as refunders. I think we would all be shocked at how many of us were wearing them! Here's a refund form to write for: A $1 Refund and two 25 cent Coupons. Dimension $1.50 Savings Offer, P.O.
