IT WAS double-coupon week at the supermarket, and I was ready. Carefully I selected every item for which I had a coupon. At the checkout counter, the cashier rang up my purchases and then began deducting the double-coupon amounts. I watched as my tab got smaller and smaller, and the line behind me grew. When a total was reached, I heard groans and cheers. "We got a pool up back here," a man in the line explained, "whether you were going to owe them or they were going to owe you." --Contributed to "Life In These United States" by Bobbie Goldin- Gavorin
