Okay when I first started clipping coupons and heard about coupon clipping services, I thought NO WAY was I ever going to actually PAY for coupons. But 3 months later, I realized what a time saving economical service they provided. :-)
For example, I just recently spent $36.15 for 50 of the $2/1 Pampers 60+ count wipes coupons (that is from 3 Ebay.com auctions and that includes the shipping and handling) So i spent 72 cents per coupon.
So I had 50 Pampers wipes coupons that I used at Wal-Mart to buy 50 Pampers wipes (which only costs $1.97 at Wal-Mart) so I only had to pay for the tax on the wipes.
50 Pampers wipes = $98.50
- $40.65 ($36.15 + $5.91 in tax)
Savings of $63.76 overall
Now if I had been able to purchase the coupons through a coupon clipping service INSTEAD of thru Ebay.com where I was bidding on the coupons I would have spent less per coupon.
Normally, most coupon clipping services normally charge anywhere from 5-20 cents per coupon depending on the value of the coupon.
BTW You are not actually buying coupons from the coupon clipping services on Ebay or on the web, you are paying for their time and effort to collect the coupons you are wanting.
