nply ice cream, sour cream,
earn cheese, cottage cheese, mar
line and powdered cleanser con-
iners plus frozen orange juice
ns and other items with non-
Mvable UPCs. I haven’t used
my for refund deals, so Lcut out
ample assortment of proofs and
collected trash bags and abso-
lely ruined my garbage collec-

old and yellowed coupons
lany from products that never
en made it) and madly enyotied
istic see-through shoeboxes,

[-outs. On a roll now, I attached
rtons of empty spaghetti boxes,
odle bags, tissue holders and
■ozen food packages and cut out
key parts — product name, net
