Extreme Couponing...Will you be watching tonight?

Is anyone else planning to watch Extreme Couponing on TLC tonight? I am torn...in this clip from ABC News it looks like we're all a bunch of Obsessive Complusive Hoarders. I can tell you, I am not a hoarder, you will not find 3,000 rolls of toilet paper in my basement...you will find 3 packages that I bought last week because we were out. I will never purchase 300 toothbrushes and I have a life outside of couponing.

I do think it might be interesting to watch the show, so I'm sure I'll be tuning in. I'm curious to see how TLC portrays couponers on the show tonight. It's on at 8PM/7CST. Anyone else planning to watch tonight?

Michelle G. said...: Crazy! I thought I could relate most to the 3rd story, but I don't walk miles each day to grab everyone else's inserts...my grandma does bring me hers though. :) I'd love to go in and save that kind of money each time...I just wonder if they really do save like that for every single trip. Or did they plan that trip for weeks/months to show a huge amount of savings. More power to them.

If any of you see me with 9 carts and a trailer out in the parking lot to haul my loot home, you can lock me up. To me that is extreme! :); December 30, 2010 at 7:56 AM

Welcome to my blog

Hi, I'm Michelle. I'm a stay at home mom who is married with 3 kids. Early this year I decided it was time to take a close look at our grocery bill each month and was SHOCKED to see how much we were spending. Would you believe it if I told you it was more than our mortgage payment? I was. So, after some researching online I started to see how much money we could be saving each month just by using coupons! And there are so many places to get coupons in addition to the Sunday newspaper. Before I would just clip the weekly coupons and use them when I needed them. Now, I shop with a purpose...that purpose being to save as much money as possible! Hopefully I can help you do the same!
