Couponing the ‘old-fashioned’way If you’re a regular reader, you know how often I reference the online tools that make a coupon shopper’s job of matching coupons to sales a snap. With sites to print coupons, load electronic coupons to a store’s loyalty card or match coupons to sales, a digitally connected coupon shopper has an amazing array of money- saving tools literally at their finger- tips. "Clipless" couponing, where shoppers only cut out exactly the coupons they need, has exploded in popularity. Thousands of coupon bloggers around the country write about this method and make it easy for anyone to pick up a pair of scis- sors and follow along. (I’m one of those bloggers. Since 2008, my gro- cery savings blog at jillcataldo.com has provided step-by-step weekly write-ups of the best coupon deals.) But what about shoppers with no Internet access? Can you still become a Super-Couponer and cut your grocery bill significantly? Yes. But, you will have to invest more time and effort than those who use online tools. Let’s take a step back and con- sider the way people used to save with coupons, pre-Internet: no web- sites, no sales trackers and no easy way to figure out the best sales prices in a store’s pricing cycle. If you’re couponing without the Inter- net, you’ll be doing things the "old- fashioned" way. With no online guidance from coupon lookup sites to help you quickly locate the coupons you need in the recent newspaper inserts you’ve dated and filed away, there’s Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol. Vandalism • A resident in the 1400 block of Donita Drive reported Wednesday an ongoing problem of vandal- ism to vehicles in his drive- way. Sometime overnight Feb. 27, someone dented the rear driver’s side fender of a white 1998 Honda Accord. Damages were estimated at $300. • The back window of a green 1998 Ford EPR was reported broken Wednesday in the 22700 block of Olive- wood Avenue near Corning. The incident occurred sometime between 11:30 p.m. Tuesday and 7:30 a.m. Wednesday. Damages were estimated at $350. • Four tires on a white 1994 Toyota truck were slashed overnight Wednes- day in the 8700 block of Hollis Street in Los Moli- nos. Damages were estimat- ed at $260. Thefts • Unknown items were reported stolen Wednesday from an unlocked garage in the 500 block of Spyglass Drive. Arrests • Robert Ted Jenner, 47, of Red Bluff was arrested Wednesday at the Tehama County Jail. He was charged with possession of a controlled substance, transportation of a con- no advantage to keeping those inserts intact. So, shoppers must cut, sort and file all of their coupons as they arrive in the news- paper each week. The "binder method" has long been a staple of old-school coupon shop- ping. Couponers would fill a 3-ring binder with the same plastic sheets used to collect baseball cards, sort- ing all of the loose coupons by type into the sheet pockets. How did they track sale prices? Without any benchmark to determine the best price for a product, shoppers would keep "price books." They would go to the supermarket with a notebook, write the date on the first page and then walk around the store writing down the sale prices for every item they were interested in buying. For example, "Week 1: Spaghetti sauce: $1.49. Corn Flakes: $2.99," and so on. The next week, they’d turn the page and write the entire list again: "Week 2: Spaghetti sauce: $1.29. Corn Flakes: $2.79" and so on. At the end of one 12-week cycle, the price book was complete. Referring to it, a shopper could look up the lowest price any product reached during that pricing cycle and recognize a "good" sale when it came around. Armed with the price book, shoppers could examine their store’s weekly flyer, note the sale prices and compare them to the book to determine if it was the best trolled substance and two counts of felony failures to appear. Bail was set at $32,500. • James Edward Hager, 25, of Red Bluff was arrest- ed Wednesday in the 13500 block of Evelyn Street. He was charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm, a prohibited person owning ammunition, proba- tion violation and failure to pay a vehicle code violation fine. Bail was set at $23,248. Animals • A dog described as a black and white German shepherd was reported Wednesday in a field attack- ing a goat in the 1300 block of Highway 99W. The live- stock owner was contacted but sheriff’s deputies were unable to secure the dog. • A goat was reportedly stuck in a fence Wednesday off Highway 36W and McCoy Road. Sheriff’s deputies were unable to locate the animal. Burglary •A Corning woman reported to the Tehama County Sheriff’s Depart- ment that her residence on Simpson Avenue had been burglarized. On Tuesday, Elizabeth Herrejon reported that someone had entered her residence and taken a .22 caliber semi-auto, wood stock rifle, worth about time to buy. Then, they’d flip through their binder and locate the coupons that lined up to that sale, to reduce prices further. Jill Cataldo Coupon Queen This is an extremely time-consuming way to coupon. Maintaining a coupon binder requires commitment. Shoppers must clip, file and weed out expired coupons every week. Certainly, you can still enjoy a great savings, but you will spend many hours each week to accomplish the same goal others reach in a fraction of the time. I liken the Internet to a "power tool" for coupon shoppers. Imagine if you were a homebuilder and had to build a house without modern tools. While you can certainly frame each wall using a hammer and a box of nails, the work goes a lot faster and more effi- ciently if you use an air nailer or a drill. Yes, you can get the job done with an old-fashioned hammer, but expect to spend a lot of time doing so. Next week, we’ll carry the home-building analogy further, addressing readers who don’t want to stockpile.

The investigation is on-going and anyone with information is asked to con- tact the Tehama County Sheriff’s Department at 529-7900. Collision •Two Cottonwood resi- dents were injured in a vehi- cle versus big rig collision at 11:23 a.m. Wednesday on northbound Interstate 5, just north of Bowman Road. Wilson Murillo, 42, of Colton was driving his big rig north in the slow lane at 50 mph when Paul Mantor began to enter northbound I-5 from the Bowman Road on-ramp at about 50 mph. Mantor failed to negotiated a curve in the road, causing his vehicle to fishtail, and lost control of the vehicle, which spun in front of Murillo. Murillo braked, but was unable to avoid a colli- sion with Mantor’s vehicle. Mantor, 53, and his passen- A Clean, Reliable, Trustworthy, Chimney Company...

Crash •A Red Bluff woman was taken to Mercy Med- ical Center in Redding with minor injuries following a rollover crash at 7:55 a.m. Wednesday on Hooker Creek Road, west of Mohr Road. Cindy Allexi, 66, was driving her 2005 Jeep Cherokee west on Hooker Creek Road about 35 mph during a storm with moder- ate rainfall and winds when due to the road being wet Allexi failed to negotiate a left-hand curve. The Jeep drifted off the right road edge, hitting a wooden power pole and a wooden fence post before overturn- ing onto its left side and roof. The vehicle, which had major damage, came to rest on its right side.
