Default Some Men are too Embarrassed to Coupon

I guess it boils down to that male pride, that feeling that they should be able to provide for their families without assistance. Some men see coupons as assistance and they are too embarrassed to use them. An ongoing study though has found that year over year more men are couponing.

I don't think a man should fee ashamed at all over saving money. I'm not ashamed and they shouldn't be either.

There is a difference between not being able to provide for your family and using coupons. Coupons are not frugal living either. They are smart living if you ask me.

I know men who do use coupons and also enjoy bargain hunting at yard sales and auctions and so on. There isn't anything wrong with it.

I agree with you,but I think some women are embarrassed also, but what is there to be embarrassed of when you are smart enough to save money?
