Picking up weekly grocery flyers, so you can painstakingly comb through them for the latest steals and deals, can be a hassle, as well as massive producer of paper waste. Because paper flyers are utilized by 79 percent of U.S. households to plan trips to the store, almost 190 billion flyer pages are printed annually, according to the Newspaper Association of America, or the equivalent of 53.4 million trees.
