33 Years Later Coupon Carton Carrier is Still a Winner:Hangs on Cart Handle
|
 Minneapolis, MN: Coupons Ala Cart was innovated by Patty Sachs in 1976 and marketed locally. Due to the high cost of print advertising, the project was dropped but not forgotten. The handy carrier/organizer, is a boon to discount coupon users--a community growing at rocket-speed due to the current economy. This sturdy cardboard organizor holds dozens of efficiently categorized coupons, hangs on the handle of the shopping cart. Just think! Avoid those over-flowing envelopes, pocket files or unwieldly notebooks and impatient looks from shoppers behind you in the check-out line.
Today's huge popularity of coupon use has inspired, Sachs, a 70 year old retiree, to manufacture and market the still-viable design on the Internet, at a fraction of old print ad costs. "Back in the day, I was the Twin Cities Coupon Queen who organized meetings, refunding clubs and even opened a store-front exchange center" says, Sachs. She concluded, "After 33 years my timing is much better today--patience wins out."
One of the most frustrating times for coupon clippers is to find a great marked-down product for which your savings coupon is at home on the kitchen counter. With the Coupons Ala Cart carton you can carry all coupons that "might ever" be used--not just those for this weeks' shopping trip.
The cover of the carton rolls back over the cart handle and attachs underneath the box with Velcro to secure it. When not in use, the cover fastens shut for a nice compact carrier that can be kept on hand, coupons undisturbed, ready for impromptu shopping.
In addition to loads of coupons, the box can accomodate a pen, calculator, even a small magnifier to check expiration dates. Coupon use has never been easier.
Now, in a time when we can save money, not only on groceries and household supplies, we can prsent coupons at restaurants, beauty salons, department and discount stores, auto services, eye glasses, electronics, craft and party stores, health services and much more. How convenient it will be to have those coupons on-hand for easy use.
The colorful Coupons Ala Cart carton measures 8 1/2 X 6 1/2 X 3" and is being sold on http://www.couponsalacart.net for $6.99 plus shipping. |
