Extreme Couponing

[Bills Custom Calls]

I watched a bit of this program today and it makes no sense to me
This women spent $2000 a year on the Sunday papers had 5 computers so she could print coupons and tried to tell everyone how much money she was saving she would spend 50 hours a week getting ready for her shopping spree and buying things to eat they didn't even like just because she had a coupon for it
Now if you would figure in the ink and paper  for the printer that she was printing coupons with on top of the price for the sunday papers
My question is where is the actual savings

Some of that stuff borders on hoarding, but done in moderation with a little common sense and timing you can save a bundle and not waste money or time. My wife plays with that stuff just for the things we will use and sometimes she will spend $30 and save $75. She uses an online group that tells her when to hit a particular store for what brands and that makes the most difference. For example, 50 cents off ketchup isn't much but on a store sale day with double coupons and store club discounts it's free. Some states have unlimited coupon use (where those shows are filmed) but here in NC she says there are restrictions. I did see one guy who basically kept a local soup kitchen running on his coupons.

I always tried to figure out how they could spend every day searching for, and clipping coupons.  I only know one person that has that kind of time on their hands and he's not around here anymore.

You're a mean fargin' bastage to goad the inept Jimbo.

Double mean, for thinking it funny.....but I dig your "low radar" approach.

He'll never see it coming...
