Canadians like buying with coupons. When I was in Hong Kong, coupons and flyers are not as common. The cost of living in Canada is much higher and any bargains we can get is going to be welcoming. My praises to the housewives who spend a lot of their time and efforts in any weeks collecting usable coupons that comes from mails, newspapers...
When I first came to Canada, I am not used to the coupon/flyer culture. I believe it is not environment friendly and create negative externality. Whenever I plan to leave for a vacation, I have to find someone to pick up flyers indicating that someone might be home to avoid thefts. However, when I was surfing the internet, I find the following website: www.save.ca. This website allows Canadians select coupons we want and they can mail to us freely. These coupons actually come in a timely manner and are usable. Maybe it is now time for coupon industry to think about evolutions!
