  • Jane, a mother of five, is spending most of her time awake couponing (and saving heaps of money because of that). Sometimes her family doesn't quite understand her obsession, as Jane would coupon literally anything, like dog food - and they don't even have a dog!

    When I was a cashier I absolutely loved checking these extreme coupon people out. It was so cool to me how they did this. There were many times where you actually owed these people money because they have so many coupons they can use and the accumulated price of the coupons was more than the cost of their items. I enjoyed handing them their cash back even though they didn’t pay for anything. They actually got paid 😂. Good for them I say

It’s mostly about matching store sales with items available on coupon and rebate apps and most of those have a limit of 1-5 uses. It’s definitely possible to get some decent stock up but it takes a lot of time

    I use to coupon heavy like this when I was in high school. My parents could barely make ends meet and we never really had the basic necessities. Learned how to do this through CZcams, Instagram and just plain old google. I was able to help lower my families monthly expenses, pay for my high school dances/proms/events, donate a bunch to my church, family and friends and I was able to make sure we had the basic stuff. It was great also when I would be able to coupon our food for the month too. Sure it takes a lot of time and effort, but if the need is there it’s worth it.
    Also I still coupon to this day. I may not coupon as much as I use to (I cut coupons during my lunch break in HS), but I still look and use them when grocery shopping for the week. We shop clearance items as well for expensive things like meat. Couponing really has saved me a lot of money and I can use it towards something else. It’s how my boyfriend and I are able to live on our own in Hawaii, at a young age on 1 income.

      This is a television show. If you’ve seen any of the other episodes you’d know they all have to try for their biggest couponing win, that’s why she was so excited at the end. It’s to show their couponing skills, not a true reflection of their daily habits. Often times they donate after the episode as well.
      Also being able to save on non-perishables and pantry items does allow more financial room for quality food purchases. I really don’t get the confusion here.

    Helpful Tips: Invest in a paper slicer or 2 & a stapler. That way you separate like coupons & cut bunches in 1 go. Staple & mark the stack at 10 or 20 a piece. Also, to avoid the register lock; Do 1 item at a time. Great job Mom 💥👍🏽🥰

They didn't show it, but I wish they would have. Personally, if the toothpaste coupon was overage then of course I would have bought as many as I could have, (donating most of them) but I would have used the overage for items I can't coupon for, like meat, fresh fruit and veggies.

    The rest of this comment is not aimed at the lady in this video but more about couponing in general.
    Couponing borders on the line of being a hoarder or a genius. We don't have many coupons in my country and it fascinates me. I understand getting products that you can use or donate but to just get items because you can get them free seems odd to me. I've watched many couponing videos and most preorder items that they are buying in large numbers so that they don't need to worry about the store not having what they want and so that items can be left on the shelf for other shoppers.
