Desirae spends 60 hours a week couponing to save money on everything she buys. From dumpster diving to hours of online research, she wants to get the most amount of wares for the lowest price at the store.
![THE CRAZY CUPON LADY Extreme Couponing [NEW]](/img/n.gif)
She says she doesn't pay anything but she's pretty much given her life to it and that's quite a huge cost really.
No different than working a 60 hour a week job. For that week of work she actually made 1056$ the groceries were 1077 an she paid 21.26 that is nothing to sneeze at and some people don't make that in a month.
@@sherrypadilla6319 Probably works for many but personally I’d rather have the cash that I could do other things with than have a truck load of toothpaste and energy drinks.
@@Steelee3 lol great point, life is short, you spend 60 hours a week to warehouse stuff most households have very little use for especially in such quantities
@@sherrypadilla6319 She actually made nothing. She happens to only pay a small amount for groceries. Let's say she gets a full time job that actually makes her money. As long as she found a job that pays more than $1770 and she'd be adding money to their bank account. Not just saving.
Great outlook!
Let's have a moment of silence for the cashier's checking these people out.
That poor woman . She will hear beep beep beep all night i think
Poor her for doing her job
@@sweetdaydreamer8868 I think it's a lot more complex and detailed than just the regular checking someone through, plus from what I've seen it can take hours. I do feel for the cashiers and the people in the queue behind the couponers.
@@sweetdaydreamer8868 It's the "too long" in time that these people take to checkout while others wait and wait and wait. . . .
@@Steelee3 we have to verify everything and read everything. If coupon policy says no overage, that means hunting down everything and doing a price inquiry on everything and inputting the amount that comes up. Even worse when it's a limit item because then that's even more fun lol.
My family knew a lady down the street who was an extreme couponer, and she opened her home to allow a lot of the low income families to get food, toiletries, snacks, and drinks, etc. It really helped us so my parents could pay bills and not have to get as many groceries bc it was always in stock thanks to this sweet lady.
Wow that woman is a saint 😁
That’s so lovely! 🥰🥰🥰
That's the nicest thing I've read today. What a star.
Wow that's so generous of her. Hopefully one day she gets repaid with her kindness
Oh how kind, bless her ❤
That dumpster she crawled into was the cleanest dumpster I've ever seen in my life.
It’s a recycling bin so just paper
Imagine it’s your first day working at that grocery store as a cashier and this is your first customer
😊😊😊😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Could never be me
It's something to learn. Usually they don't throw you in alone on your first day. You'll have someone helping you. It is annoying though.
I lolled 😂
Or if you have one item and have to wait behind her 🤮
"I'm never going to stink" *flops into dumpster*
😂
I thought that too!
I thought the same...now she NEEDS all of that soap!
😂
I remember I went into a dumpster, and I had the stink for weeks
Lol
Has anybody noticed the food she saved money on is either processed or ultra-processed? They simply don't make coupons for fruits, vegetables, dried lentils, or dried legumes. Also, correlate that knowledge with the fact that she looks much older than a 24-year-old woman.
I was just thinking much the same. I wouldn't eat anything she bought and I'm 60 and healthy. She's going to pay for that addiction with her health, sadly, like all addictions.
Maybe it's because she has a child as well, it's really stressful
@@justagirl8757 Food choices affect your health and cause stress.
I was just saying that
I wonder if she knows that she can donate a portion of her savings to charity. A thousand dollars of grocery items for only $21.00. Not too mention her stockpile of grocery's.
As a former target and Walgreens cashier, I feel the cashiers pain.
Same😭
she worked for 60 hrs for about $1057... that's less than $18/hr and she's not even paid in $$$, she's paid in sugar, processed food and chemicals. I hope she has medical insurance.
She had a blog, Coupon Diva, as shown in the video, which likely generated income for her as well
Ha I did the same thing as you- calculated the equivalent pay. Let would be more like $12/hr cause 20hrs is overtime.
I know, not to mention that she's holding up the line. I've seen people like her and I saw one woman who had so many coupons that it's overloaded the system and they threw her out.
I don´t know how much rent she pays... Where I live a spare bedroom would cost 300-600€ per month (!)... If it would cost me 450€, I would have to calculate another 100€/week only for the storage space of all that stuff...
Then the car-driving and the time she is missing out with her kid(s) :(
I would rather live paycheck to paycheck than neglecting my child over couponing...
Let’s say spend 300$ week on groceries and would could invest the remaining 700$. That’s 33000 a year that she could invest. Let’s say her her investment are at 4%…
it's people like her that are the reason for coupons now having a limit of 1 per product
that means she's living paycheck to paycheck again then
Right. This isnt even possible at stores.
Limit of 1 per ‘product’ is per item. Limit of 1 per ‘transaction’ is different.
So how does she keep up house work
Yeah, this is nearly impossible in the U.S. now because of people like her. My grandmother used to get a few free items each week from "rebates" but now most companies don't even do that anymore.
With her skills, she can contribute to the world in a much better way!
She could donate this stuff
Not her responsibility.
@@hecutsdown91 its not about saving, its about sending a meassge
She wants 101 deodorants!!!!!
I really enjoy it when the person donates their haul of enormous amounts of items that a person cannot use within the expiration date. That's heartwarming
This isn’t about saving money for groceries. This is just another addiction.
You could just work for 60 hours….
@@franticrushz8442 and the layers of the veil being to fall, pick your poison
they all said they did
@@franticrushz8442 exacltly working 60 hours would make you far more money than couponing
@@franticrushz8442do you guys in the USA work 60 house? I ve never heard someone doing that...that's like life in prison😢
The thing is, she doesn‘t save as much money as she thinks she is. It’s a lot of stuff she wouldn’t normally buy, and just does because she has a coupon for it, that is then rotting in her pantry. I think it’s a mental thing more than anything else at this point.
Same thought. Isn't it like an obsessive or hoarding personality disorder of some sort. I like to have a few extra items in the house but not to this level.
@@ilovericelol right
Kinda like food hoarding.
Most coupons I find are for processed foods that I wouldn’t buy anyway.
@@linhaton4957 mhm
I feel the most sympathy for anyone in line behind her.
"Sorry I won't make it back for dinner this week. I'll be in line at the grocery store for the next four and a half days"
The fact that these companies would rather throw this stuff in the trash than donate to the poor or needy, tells you exactly why they are what's wrong with this world. Greed.
Its called wild capitalism.
In my country they can't because donating to charity (if you're a supermarket) costs a lot of money (taxes) and also it's forbidden to give out food which is about to expire...
So, it's the government's fault.
Which country @@kryszele
@@davidb9806 Poland
Exactly
Honestly I would love to see someone that does this and donates a large portion to those who need it. It's work but she got 1,000 worth of stuff for 20ish bucks!
I coupon .... almost extreme..... and yes ..... I donate LOTS..... I put a lot of hours into it but how do you say no to free when there’s so many in need ?
@@patsybensend3468 thank you so much for sharing and helping others instead of hoarding.
I saw a video about someone who couponed to donate. I don't remember where I saw it.
Yea 150 deodorants will expire before she can use them up so why not donate.. if not, i think it's better to invest that time into earning money which we can use to buy anything we want instead of hoarding the same type of products
She Got It For 50 cent
So we’re just going to skim over that desirae is 24 YEARS OLD?!! I really thought she was a full 40 year old mum
Lol especially with the glasses
My thoughts exactly I thought I was the only one 😳

.55 for $640 worth of groceries? This woman is a legend
This woman does not have a life.
I remember this show. It totally ruined it for those of us who really used coupons the right way and just wanted to save some money.
Why?
@@giuseppepatane6601someone said it was changed and you cannot use more than 1 coupon on each product
Why
@@giuseppepatane6601probably because stores started to add more limits to stop people from doing this
This sounds great if you plan on living off cake mix with Powerade and toothpaste.
Look at her stock. Do you seriously think that's all she has? Besides, if she doesn't pay for shampoo etc then she has more money for meat.
Hey don't underestimate cake mix. I could eat that all day if I weren't healthy haha
Exactly
Right😅
Don’t forget about grocery rebate apps! So much more offers than cake mix and Powerade!
That poor cashier that rang up the 3 carts full of food AND did different transactions. She deserves a raise.
I used to be a cashier and if I saw that coming toward me, I would turn off my light and go home.
She’s literally on T.V. if she wasn’t on camera then that’s a different story plus this is staged and written by TLC directors
@@coffeelink943 for sure. They don’t allow that many carts per customer as well as that many coupons lol. It’s just for the television.
Why??? She's scanning and punching the same amount of buttons whether it's one big order or 50 normal size orders, paid by the hour.
@@spar0035 unless she's being paid $18/hr she's being underpaid for her work.
She enjoys doing this and as long as she isint hurting anyone or annoying anyone I support her
The cashier looked annoyed & her friend wasn’t smiling at the end😂😂😂😂
I like how he narrates the mission like some sort of spec ops seal team 6 operation😂
20 boxes of toothpaste
28 boxes of tissues
45 boxes of cake and cookie mix
59 packages of candy
96 bottled beverages
Sounds like some great and healthy meals.
Well, she is overweight & does not look like she gets much exercise - if she eats the stuff she gets free with coupons, it is usually processed, unhealthy food.
Yes super healthy. Diabetes and obesity are on their way
59 packages of candy!? wow thats really unhealthy..
The 160 candy and coyote beverages are probably only like 1$-$2 each. Toothpaste is only like $2-$3 each also. So like where is the $1000 coming from? Makes no sense.
It gets ridiculous when she doesn't end up using all the products. That's when you know it's just an altered version of a shopping addiction.
I would donate a lot
Fr
She probably wastes less than you do.
@@buckaroobonzai2909 how can you think that when she has a whole room of products that expire.
I don't get why she doesn't barter them with her neighbors. Nobody needs 150 sticks of deodorant
My mom always buys things she never would have bought if there wasnt a discount for it, same applies here, the sellers trick worked
*I can’t imagine the pain that the cashier felt while doing this job*
This is a major addiction! A job at 60 hours per week can surely make you a great deal more money. This is an addiction not a way of saving money.
And a form of hoarding!
@@lunalea1250 I was going to say that we’re gonna see these people on Hoarders.
Was scrolling through the comments to see if someone would mention just what you said, as i was thinking the same thing watching this.
In America, a job at 60 hours per week will not necessarily pay her more. And she’ll have less freedom and likely report to someone who treats her poorly. Who knows.
@@sarahhartman5723 people have run the numbers - she's actually saving more $ doing this then she would working 60 hours min wage for sure. Gets to be her own boss and do what she enjoys. Leave her alone lol she isn't hurting anyone. Most spouses would LOVE their partner only spending $20/week on both their hobby and groceries, while also being home with the kiddo.
She does realize that even things that aren’t food do expire, right? She should definitely donate some of those items to homeless shelters before they expire.
literally like its such a waste and that stuff will probably stay on the shelf while she buys new stuff and uses that
No
She doesn’t have to do anything. What she does they can do too.
@@Emma-yg2uf I understand that, but she has a large supply of items that more than likely wont be used before they expire. Of course, she can keep them away until they do expire. She bought them, that's her choice. Or... she could also use her talents to help those less fortunate. I just think its wasteful to buy all that and not use it.
@@rqmennn mhm, especially all of the hygiene supplies since a lot of that stuff doesn’t get donated as regularly as food does.
wOw I can't believe she saved that much money. The end of the episode had me on the edge of my seat!
I would be absolutely mortified if I was this woman’s husband. What an embarrassment!
Dude! Imagine if she had a job and worked 60 hours a week? I bet her and the hubby would be in a better financial situation?
Do what you love and you never work a day in your life.
better health as well..
But she is more happy doing this.
No average job allows you to spend 640€ a week. Be rational
It’s coupon hoarders like this that has destroyed couponing for the average shopper. Coupons now expire in under a month & you have to buy multiples. Another example of greed ruining things.
Mind your business, what's wrong with what's shes doing? R u jealous
@@Smileymorris07. oh yeah…..I’m sooooo jealous!
thats the fault of a broken capitalist system not poor people trying to get ahead..
right because billionaires hoarding wealth is so much better than a person using coupons...
@@temple69 we’re not talking about “billionaires”🙄I’m saying ordinary families having several printers, printing off coupons, dumpster diving, purchasing “hundreds” of items. I mean how many candy bars, sugary drinks & boxes of pasta does 1 family need? A lot of these people don’t even donate any of it. They just like the aesthetic & flex of having a grocery store in their basement. This is MY opinion.😏Greedy!!
I’m glad that she’s saving money but she’s buying too much things which are gonna go bad and make a waste
That’s the same thing I thought. Things do have an expiration date.
I never thought someone could be so stressed grocery shopping
I used to look at coupons till I realized they were always for over-priced, overly-processed items. I never saw coupons for meat, vegetables, butter or flour. So she found a coupon for gelatin. What use is gelatin, really?
Honestly, she doesn't look healthy.
the only thing i've ever used gelatin for is sfx makeup but i HIGHLY doubt that's what she uses it for
That’s so true wow I just noticed that. I love this show. But it’s like everything they get is like shelf life items. I never realized that they never get meat or anything like you just said wow 🤩 how did I miss that and I been watching this show for a long time lol.
Plus it is from animal tendons and bones. Disgusting
Notice how heavy she is? Due to the processed foods
That is amazing! Any homeless shelter or food bank would love a donation like that. She sure puts a lot of work into getting groceries.
But she’s greedy she won’t give unless she runs out of space
@@skhan3118 why dont you do it then.
@@ramonrodriguez8010 I do
For those 21 dollars she paid she could dig up a garden bed and actually eat healthy :( whats the use of all that cake mix and gatorade?
@@slagloken7698 she gets a high off of couponing.
I admire this woman! She is very smart. I feel that businesses should hire her to save them money. She has talent that is very valuable in the business world.
She would do justice by donating this and getting a tax write off.
“She dedicated 60 hours each week”, why don’t she just get a job and buy groceries with the money from it 😂
Cause the world is expensive even with a job
I know her personally. This was at least 10 years ago or more. Now she doesn't coupon now and is a very famous business woman in my hometown area.
@@lg032580love to hear it
I’m glad to hear that! Her couponing life sounded so sad and empty.
@@lg032580can you help me learn english?
Most places don’t take all this coupons anymore and a lot of people like her just turned around and sell everything full price and make money out of it, like my sister in law.
Only those that knows the rules can play the game 🤑🙊
🤣🤣🤣 gives up the sister in law
@@resurection96 it’s the truth!!!!!
I work!!!! She is on desability and scams the coupons and turns around and sells everything!!!!!
@@Marly123 it is scamming

So yes it’s Scaming!!!!
@@e.s.92 shes still not scamming shes not in any way cheating people outta their money? literally search the meaning shes just using coupons to get products and sell them.
Very organised and dedicated. I must commend her on this.
How is this still possible? In the Netherlands you would never be allowed to use this many coupons at once, exactly to prevent people from buying half the store for a penny. Shout out to cashier Penny btw what a trooper :')
It's not permitted in any area of The States either that I know of. I honestly think the show had some kind of arrangement with the store to waive the coupon fees because the rest of us would never be able to do anything even close to this.

Lol 😂
Such an underrated comment 😊

but she smells like roses! How can you not understand this?

Bro you're literally getting paid to do your job 💀💀💀
@@smuhg4731 she's must be white
@@smuhg4731 and? Doesn’t mean she’s supposed to like unnecessarily complicated orders
Why do coupons exist? It doesn't make sense to just give away free stuff, unless its charity. But then it should be ensured it goes to those who actually need it and not just random people who come over it
@@zakosist There’s a lady in my town who got so addicted to couponing that her husband made her stop buying stuff.
So instead, she kept doing it and now she just gives all the stuff to food pantries/homeless shelters in our county. She gets her fix and it helps people in the process.
Time is money. And couponing takes a lot of time.
This is a really fun hobby. Keeps the brain sharp.
The cashier and manager were so patient and kind 👏
only because cameras were prescent
@@Bay6768 I think they would've still been kind, but it 100% would've put that lady on a watchlist lol.
"I have so much soap ill never stink". GIRL YOU JUST WENT DUMPSTER DIVING
Thats she said that. Duh
Just a guess, but I'm guessing she showers after dumpster diving and not before.
Exactly why she needs the soap
That's why she has a soap for showering you dull brain
0:48 she fell like a sack of potatoes 💀💀💀
Props to her, hopefully she donates a lot of that haul bc there's no way her family could go through all that.
I feel bad about the cashier and the manager struggling with all of those stuff she tried buying💀
They getting paid too
they're getting paid to do their job bro
They acted nice for the cameras though.
They have to work till the end so better make some fun then a boring job
I used to be a cashier and if I saw that coming toward me, I would turn off my light and go home.
Nevermind that dumpster diving could easily result in a medical bill that could easily more than negate whatever she could hope to save with coupons. People routinely throw all sorts of incredibly dangerous stuff into them.
And she’s wearing nice Clothes in there! I don’t care if she’s on TV!
Used needles!
That’s very likely why that caution sign is there. But she obviously ignored it because finding coupons to save money is more important to her than her health and safety.
Aids and hepatitis HERE SHE COMES!
What if one day those dumpsters will get locked and only authorised personnel has access to them.
Bless her heart
If only this lady devoted her 60 hours to healthy eating & exercise then she could spend quality time with her friends & family
If she were doing this to donate ALL of it to people in need I would so root for this, but honestly this is just absurd and such a waste of everyone’s time and energy.
Yeah but who would bust their but for 60 hours a week to donate it ll. Thats like having a full time volunteer job
@@cartergirl3of3 The fact she spend 60 hours a week is absurd.
Especially when sales, bargain bins and clear out stores exist.
@@cartergirl3of3 it’s not like she’s used all of this and stuff does expire nobody needs 400 razors and over a hundred shampoos she can donate lol
@@crazykitty6190 that's not the point though. I think she should donate it too BUT why would she because she spent painstaking time collecting it. It's not about it going bad it's about the time and effort spent just to give it away. She should do that but i understand why she would not
I can see why stores don't want people using massive amounts of coupons. This is ridiculous
Maybe there should be a limit to how many coupons each person can use eg. per month
They get reimbursed for the coupons by the manufacturers. It’s really not a huge loss for them other than the hassle.
It is not just ridiculous but it's selfish. There are other people that have small grocery budgets as well. But no one can get the products.
Well, maybe they shouldn't have created the process
It used to help my mom out who was a single mom of two. Would save like 60 bucks on stuff we NEEDED. But this level is ridiculous
She has some skills and brains
She said “I’m never gonna stink” yet she dumpster dives 24/7 😂
I'm all for saving money. The thing is that with this type of saving, you save on products you don't need, like 50 toothpaste. You need toothpaste, but not 50 boxes. I've known the feeling living paycheck to paycheck but i can't understand how she does all that work for mostly things she can't eat. At least, she donates. She helps others when she doesn't have space anymore.
Right!!!!
why dont u need 50 toothpaste? one every 2 weeks = she's set for 2 years on toothpaste. it's called stacking up and saving.
@@Prince-jb7pv how does one use a tube of toothpaste in 2 weeks? I googled it it said about 2.5 months per tube
@@cys5891 😂😂😂 right
@@cys5891 sure maybe if u have yellow teeth. lol, toothpaste is $6. maybe 1 per month but it def doesnt last 2.5 months for a family. she has a family, so i'd estimate 2 weeks.
There’s surely a greed or obsessive motive for this. She really doesn’t need that much bulk of some of those products. $4.5k retail value of razors? Her storage area is so well kept it looks like doesn’t even use anything.
right? like i get saving money is great but why over do it? My sister is cheap, she sees cereal on sale buy one get one free and shes like "we need this!" even though we end up not eating it because she rarely eats cereal and i never do. So in the end it just wasting more money. If this lady at least donated some of it then sure. What happens when something expires? There's so much of some items that would they really eat it all?
ah shut up!
It’s a mental illness
This is a form of mental illness
make jokes, but she has a decent balance in her pantry...part of my brain is yelling broccoli, apples, bananas....but she IS amazing at what she does
What a life! 😮 This woman has lost her mind! The items will expire before she can use them! 😮😮😮
She spent $21, but cost the store about $100 in labor.
Imagine working 60 hours per week, how well paid she would be, that she would buy all the products and still get money left.
she is a stay home mom
She would have to land a $20+ an hour job to be able to spend over $1000 on groceries and then have money left over.
@@err0r-403 Yes but she is buying way more groceries than she needs. A family of three does not spend $1000 on groceries every week.
Unless she sales that excess for profit it doesn’t economically make sense to buy a bunch of stuff you’ll never use for ‘free’ and waste 60 hrs planning it.
Yep. Thats not smart of her.
I will never understand why these people feel the need to have to take the whole shelf. It’s literally all going to be expired before she can use it
Like really 45 boxes of cake and cookie mix and 49 packages if candy, that’s just really unnecessary nobody needs candy and cake and cookie mix

These people turn around and sell for major profits.
The coupons expire too, did you know that?
So much respect for this
And that's why we do not get that much of coupons anymore.
I bet all the stuff gets expired before she can use it
True. As an example, deodorant expires within a couple years at least of being purchased. If she has 105 containers of deodorant, I doubt she will be able to use them all by 2023... :) Sounds like she's wasting time and would have a lot more money if she actually worked at a job for 60 hours per week! :)
Did you even watch the video? She said she actively donates. And almost always anyone that has a stockpile that large often shares with extended family members, neighbors, friends, etc.
@@PrincessMultiracial yeah same I know people who let their family and friends “shop” from their stash of stuff they got couponing. They’ll ask for like $0.10 per item, basically just whatever they paid for it, it’s really great.
Lol😂
I did the math and if she worked a regular job she'd be making 3,600 a month... you can't pay bills with toothpaste and cake mix lol getting a job would be more viable imo.
Let’s just appreciate the cashiers patience with all of this 😂
That’s her job sooo
Lol because the camera was there
“I’m never going to stink” says the lady that climbs in and out of dumpsters.
I do not know how these people checking them out had the patience
I'm have a lot of respect for that cashier to have that patience and still being friendly the whole time. I will admit though it's insanely impressive to me that she got a 1000+ dollar order down to .55 cents. That's actually amazing.
Just imagine she ends up with a $1000 bill and hears “Actually all these coupons have expired”
😁😁😂😂
Would love to see that happen and see her reaction😆
@@tinahuttner7280 I guess she would scream and run away!!
The poor workers will have to put everything back.
Her extreme couponing IS OVER 9000!!!
Don’t know why but that “woooow” at 6:32 had me in tears 😂😂😂
Not trying to judge, but couldn't this be considered an organized form of hoarding? I mean when she said to donate or have a neighbor shop, that would be really great. Let's face it no one is going to be using 48 bottles of dish soap, or 128 or so bottles of shampoo, and conditioner, all of those razors etc.
Someone who was struggling to make ends meet would probably really, really appreciate anything at all. For someone in a shelter many of those things could be a huge blessing. I know at the end of the day it's hers and she can do whatever she wants with it, but if she doesn't plan on using most of the items rather than collecting dust or being a trophy section of her couponing, someone in need could, and should get some use out of some of the things there before they go bad. Personal care items, detergents, ETC. do have a shelf life. Most of those items if ever they were going to be used that is, would most likely be past their expiration date by the time she got to it. Also, she is only accumulating more, and more at this point. Definitely should give to those in need at some point.
What's the dollar limit in one's bank account that should be considered hoarding?
When I did couponing years ago, this is what I did. I had specific things I would buy, like feminine products, detergent, etc. that I knew people on SNAP benefits couldn’t buy with that program. For example, I donated two shopping bags just of tampons to a woman’s shelter, Gain laundry detergent (which I don’t like but had great coupons) to our local food pantry, etc. I figure if I had the knowledge on how to get things for almost nothing, the least I could do was to try and help others. I liked it-I felt happy.
@@debbieomi hoarding specifically refers to obsessively collecting or holding onto objects. money doesnt usually apply to that, but people who are obsessed with how much money they have or make are also not very healthy
100% agree, Mindy. If she needs to invite neighbors over to take items from her it means she doesn't need to spend 60 hours each week couponing. She clearly has a psychological need to coupon that doesn't seem entirely healthy.
I’m just astounded that she’s 24 and looks in her mid 30s
More in her 40s
Living off of Powerade, cake mix, candy, and toothpaste really does that to you 😔😔😔
And the fact that im 26 and look like a teenager🤣
If she lost weight she would probably look a lot younger. But she definitely doesn't look 24 lol
@@JCDenton2000 she has had weightloss surgery since this episode aired years ago
the employee and manager was so patient with them 😊
This lady isn’t shopping/couponing for her household or to donate, she’s doing it because she can and finds a thrill in it. It’s extremely wasteful and quite possibly a mental issue. How many tubes of toothpaste??
Do it because you need it. If she cut down her hours couponing, she could still get what she needs for her family while also contributing to the family income.
I completely agree. If she was doing it and keeping what she will use and donating the rest but most of this will expire and end up in the dump. She really needs to see a therapist. Maybe she should spend less time couponing and some time on exercise.
it's TLC (they live crazy channel) 🙃
Not to mention, how many of those things is she just getting because she had a coupon, not because she would normally be getting them? She needs to donate those things to a shelter or food kitchen.
She can give it to her family members.
@@Absbabs88 in the video she said she does I think in the beginning
RIP to the guy with 3 items behind her in line.
The sad part is than they don't use none of that.
I have friends who lived in states where you could double and sometimes triple coupons, and they said it was a nightmare when these extreme couponing shows were popular because the extreme couponers would literally clear the shelves of all sale items, without regard to people on a budge trying just to get their families needs met for the week. Rather than take even a dozen items, they'd take all 36 that were just unboxed. So if you wanted to get a couple of boxes of mac and cheese on sale for your kids, you were out of luck because one person took all that was in stock.
Yes I find them a pest
Yes exactly! Used to help out our family. But that show ruined it
Early bird gets the worm 😋
Not exactly healthy. Be grateful.
Stores should place limits they could easily do that.
This is exactly why I never worked at a grocery store . Yep I’m not doing that ! It’s Almost like no common courtesy for the person who has to bag all the groceries.
I work retail, have been for 13 years and I have to say I haven't had a paper coupon given to me in the last two years
Stores don't double coupons anymore bc of this, at least where I live.
She saved about $1000, and in fact she dedicated 60h to that, she effectively earned around $17 per hour. Better than a min wage job. Can this be a consistent effort? At some point having another 100 toothpaste tubes will be less valuable than money.
She would make a great accountant or a financial controller. She’s very organized as well.
Not really because $$$ is better than bulk toothpaste, cake mix. For example is she sold it she'd get a fraction of what's worth. Hardly anyone buys toothpaste etc from strangers and if they did it'd have to be for much cheaper.

"old fashioned calculator."
Literally a normal calculator
It hurts me to pay anything.
I feel ya gurl. I feel ya.
If she put this much energy into something that really mattered she’d be a billionaire
Dude who cares
She doesn’t have to do something that matters for other people if she doesn’t wanna, if she wants to do the thing with the coupons she can, so stop judging
Only if you had that much energy
Low energy
@@PaendaTube playing college basketball for reason
@@uglyboiaiden7694 What's after that, G league?
I am SO glad that most coupons now have a limit of one per customer.
Because people like her were taking advantage of the situation so now everyone losses
She's basically 8 people so..💁
It came out to 55 cents -
“Anybody got a nickel?”
Shes Not living paycheck to paycheck anymore, shes now living Coupon to Coupon!
Spend 60 hours a week, and your poor family has to live off Gatorade, Premade Brownie Mixes and candy? No thanks xD I'll keep my 9-5
Do you really think they don't eat anything but that? Couponing saves her money for meat and veggies. And everyone I know eats brownies and Gatorade!
@@uphillhomestead6188 Her pantry was filled with the processed foods that are making her obese.
@@jessiejoseph1093 well I don't know her so I can't say for sure...but that's the stuff coupons pay for. The meat doesn't get coupons usually and besides..I doubt she keeps fresh meat up on a shelf. This is her stockpile , she still has a kitchen to eat her daily meals from. My shelves are stockpiled like hers but I have plenty of fresh stuff in the fridge and freezer. .
Her website was shown in the video which likely was another form of income
@@uphillhomestead6188 she also does have her entire stock pile soooo….
As much as I love saving money, this is just another excuse to be a hoarder
All of her items are clean and organized, just like everything else in her life. It looks like she uses stuff and gets more in, but keeps a bit extra.
I, personally do this. I have 5 of the big bottles of dish soap at any given time and 5 big containers of hand soap refill. It could last me years, but when ine gets empty, I get another one at the store when I see it cheap.
She is wise and organize the coupon in patience
The emotional labor from these cashiers... They deserve a raise.
she literally has a large amount of the perfect things to have to start a homeless shelter, I really don't understand why she would rather just stock them when she will never be able to use all of these before they expire and imagine how many people she could help with these things especially the diapers.
I signed up for a couponing class years ago. They told you everything about it except where they get the coupons from. People were asking but they kept avoiding the question. Eventually they said "coupon clipping services", you pay for the coupons! I'm sure you save in the long run, but you're still paying for it
They probably didn’t want to tell y’all right away
This is basically her chosen job. It's not easy but she loves it so much, so why not. In my country this would be absolutely impossible. I love that she has basically her own little store right at home 😁
