I agree to this alot. That and the fact you have to rotate the stock or finish it fast enough. Garbage is not frugal. Throwing out expired food is a concern for the hoarder types on the show.If people were getting hundreds of dollars of "real" food on that show I would be impressed. Like chicken, milk and fruit and veggies. They are always getting something like 50 packs of tic-tacs for free and are storing them in their shower because they don't have anymore room.
Ditto. They buy foods that they wouldn't normally buy, and much of it is canned or processed, or fast heat and serve frozen.If people were getting hundreds of dollars of "real" food on that show I would be impressed.

Thanks, I'll check that out.Target offers some nice coupons and they have thsoe buy 2 of these get x dollars back deals I LOVE! a Target coupon cann be used witha manufactures one. So if say litter is on sale and target has coupon go online and try to find a manufactures to match it with and you get some nice savings. I love target is it usually very calm even if there are alot of people.
SO TRUE. Accident happen. but going in knowing you are cheating is horrible. At some point they may stop issuing coupons if they keep getting cheated. Or store will stop accepting themAs well, if you do a google search, you will find that many of those extreme couponers know how to cheat the system by using coupons for one thing to buy something entirely different.
This is so true. I don't even bother looking at coupons, unless it is a "save $5 if you spend $100" type of thing. There aren't coupons for many of the items I buy.If people were getting hundreds of dollars of "real" food on that show I would be impressed. Like chicken, milk and fruit and veggies.

It's sad. For the most part there only seem to be coupons for processed junk. Whole Foods has a flyer with some coupons for healthy stuff. I do use those.This is so true.

I agree with this, and yikes on that last part.If people were getting hundreds of dollars of "real" food on that show I would be impressed. Like chicken, milk and fruit and veggies.

They're out of room from last weeks haul of 13,471 free thumb tacks! LOLI think if a person has to store stuff in the shower they must be going a little overboard with the couponing LOL.
LOL Thats a lot of thumbtacks!They're out of room from last weeks haul of 13,471 free thumb tacks! LOL
I'm more interested in seeing what how much I save rather than how much I can getI use coupons but don't "extreme" coupon at all. I think it's selfish to shelf clear. I try to stick to clipping only for things we actually use. Or sometimes to get something as more of a treat for us.
