Explain extreme couponers

double coupons, on top of sales.. You an easily get 200 bucks of stuff for 10 bucks..

sadly most is CRAP...

who the fuck needs 55 deodorants..

Notice they don't have coupons for healthy stuff lol..

But.. there are some deals worth grabbing.. cleaners, paper goods, etc..

Your right most of is processed junk food but what I'm interested is on stuff like Toilet paper, Paper towels, Detergent soap and stuff that has long shelf life

youtube couponing.. Lots of tricks..

You can save tons.. It is work, but worth it.

Please use an example I want to understand how it works. Are you saying that if a roll of Toilet paper costs $2 and you have two $1 coupon than the item comes out for free. Do stores allow you to double dip like that

I always watch for coupons... most of it is for s**t you should never, ever put in your body. Hot Pockets and Sunny Delight and Wonder Bread and s**t like that.

I do clip the ones for paper products, sadly they are few and far between.

Most coupons are crap. The free coupons are rare and rebates usually don't get paid out.

i know one, this Chinese girl i know shes always getting food and soap and items of all kinds,she brings me bags of the shit over, i just end up selling half of it to my roomys,shes addicted to it,but works out for me,i havnt bought shampoo in at least 2 years and razors. Its actually incredible what she gets and wins in coupon contests.

Bullshit Rebates always get paid out. I do great with rebates specially large ones. The thing is that most people don't follow directions to the T for rebates.


See I'm watching the TLC extreme couponing and these women have a ton of bounty, toilet paper and laundry detergent.


I use a lot of TP and would really save a lot of money if I could get it for free

Too many mexican burritos

Extreme hoarding syndrome. Like a survivalist with tens of thousands of rounds of ammo that rarely (if ever) goes practice shooting and never goes hunting.

yes.. they do allow it..

Look. no one can give you lessons in this thread.. Do some homework, watch some youtubes by long time couponers for tips.

If yo ucant even do that much.. BELIEVE me.. You wont cut it couponing.. IT'S WORK...

They use coupon clipping services and double coupons. You can get stuff for free it just pisses everyone in the store off.

Another way is to use glitches to get free stuff. One day I walked into cvs to get a bottle of shampoo and some toothpaste with an extracare coupon for some amount (probably 5 bucks). I brought it to the register paid for it (it was like 15-25 cents with the coupon) then the register printed out another coupon for 5 bucks so I bought another shampoo and toothpaste for change. Boom...another coupon. I stopped there.

I would never want to horde stuff like that specially stuff I would not use.

But If I have a garage where I can store non perishable items like TP for the purpose of saving money why not. The junk food is just pointless.

Rebates take too long. Yeah I'm going to wait 2 months to get 50 cents back when it cost 50 cents to mail.

No I'm not talking about those little rebates I'm talking about stuff that pays off. Like items you would buy during christmas. Cell phones, TV's that sort of thing

I saw a show that some of the people that do that (buy a pallet of cereal or the like) donate a lot of it to homeless shelters and other service organizations. So in a lot of cases it doesn't go to waste.

I'm watching the show on TLC right now. Guess what? most of these people are obese I wonder why?

Some of the extreme ones have stated that they do couponing "full time"... which means what -- 40 hours a week? Full time to save $200-$400 dollars?

So you just "worked" 40 hours for $200-$400 dollars savings, and you have somewhat limited choice of what you spend your "money" on?

Seems kinda silly, but I guess I don't understand it fully.

I think they start with a good intention and they end up with some type of compulsive disorder along the same lines of slot gamblers.

I hear you can buy bails of hay really cheap and you can use it as tp as well....problem solved...

Organization is the key to shopping for great deals.

Simple to follow instructions

just tried to figure it out too, gave up.convinced show is b.s!

there was a news story that the show IS BS awhile back.

Store coupon + manufacturers coupon = big savings

Store sale + manufacturers coupon = savings


The best I've ever done is $200 worth of stuff for just over $100. Lots of double coupons & lots of coupons for free stuff (from manufacturers).


You can take coupons into the Dollar Tree store & have some savings now too. Last time I did I was getting dagger looks from the store managers since the coupons allowed me to get some stuff for free or 50-75 cents off each item.

I agree with this.

I've watched the show Extreme Couponing, I look at their stock pile & think that is ridiculous.

I love couponing i only buy stuff i will use though and if something is going to pay me to take it out i get it to but i give it away it just helpa me pay for other stuff..the best i have done is retail was 435.62 and i spent 102.35 but i was happy with that :)
