Extreme Couponing

[Cheesymonster]

I am watching this for the first time and I am agog. A lady just got $400 worth of groceries... for $9.10. Her house is bursting at the seams with stockpiled stuff. She bought 93 packs of croutons.

Is this common in the US? Surely people can't get through all the food they buy before it goes off? Oh and now there is a lady who has stockpiled a year and a half's worth of nappies, and she doesn't have children.

I hear you! I find it fascinating. What cracks me up is the line "after 7hours in the supermarket she/he is ready to get to the checkout". 7 hours???

Also, those supermarkets always look empty. Wish my Sainers was like that! I think the Piggywig chain is my fave!

I don't understand how everyone in the US isn't loaded. No food bill would make a massive difference for most people.

I love this program! ....but none of the coupons are ever for fresh food like mik or fruits& veg.

How many crouton recipes must she have to conjure?!

I think the people on this programme are greedy hoarders!

They always say "I can feed my family for $4 a year by couponing", but they only seem to buy 350 hot dogs and 476040378 deodorants.
