This is probably the most wholesome episode of Extreme Couponing. Such a nice family. I wish them well.

Definitely a coping method

Andres Rodriguez What I don’t get is the ones who have items in their stockpile that they would never use.

[@andresrodriguez3708]

@@heleneclark563 i somewhat agree, they keep some of those items "just in case" ex: C19, and some i wish they would donated, towards the Food Banks, in addition if they have canned preserves some of their food, can last them maybe a lifetime, so it's many ways, you can benefits from having all that storage.Lastly, i think people should start, stocking up on garden seeds, because if the government is preventing people purchasing seeds, to grow food to feed their family, something insidious is lurking.

[@isabelchaparro2608]

Agreed. This lady and people like her are set. My stockpile isn’t as big but I have enough for 3-6 months where I don’t need to go out

I’m getting married this year and have taken leaves out of Erin’s book with regards to cutting costs, including using coupons for wedding participant attire

[@denisel.1327]

This lady is definitely not an extreme cheapskate! She is awesome in saving money using coupons.

[@stephaniespragg5586]

This is definitely how to do a wedding on the cheap. I took several leaves out of her book when I got married (including using coupons and sales when paying for attire). My husband and I took care of small expenses (including attire etc) and they came up to £2200 altogether

[@eunchunglee23]

At least her extreme couponing went to a good cause. Weddings are not cheap, and the fact that she was able to use her stock pile to give to the caterer for the food was a good idea.

Our "honey do" list keeps expanding by the week/day/minute, but it's so nice to know *we* call the shots and can do whatever we want. I'm sorry that your family is being so negative, but just know that I'm pulling for you. Where are you from? My husband and I live in Pennsylvania.

[@MaryTheresa1986]

Thank you for saying this. I'm trying my best to remain hopeful, but it's been so hard. I'm so grateful to still have a job, but I've been feeling so unmotivated lately and being apart from everyone is difficult. I'm so grateful to have my husband because I don't know what I would do without him. There's so much out of our control, but we *can* control how we respond to our circumstances. I'm going to try to be more positive.

[@larissaswinkels3661]

Emilio had The entire EU I think. Don’t even know if there is any country besides the US where this is possible

[@Kyoto.Tomino]

@out Rageous from my understanding of the show, they actually get it from magazines or news papers so i guess it's their form of colaboration with certain products/brands and also as a way of their advertisement in order to sell the product or magazine either way. Somehow it's a win-win strategy since they're just gonna give a cent or a dollar discount however, if your dedicated enough to collect coupons then get a total of 100dollars discount not bad right?

[@exo-lforever6001]

Same here in philippines

[@jenniferliu7586]

This is the most wholesome comment section in the whole extreme couponing series!

[@martinerae9854]

How on earth do the stores actually make money with allowing couponing 🤔

[@jabneelhenry5301]

They get like 7 cents for every manufacturer coupon redeemed legally.

[@kennyb1588]

Also most stores now have rules against doing couponing to this extreme atleast where I live

[@kelleythenurse3283]

Most people who use coupons buy their groceries with a stack that will save them like 10 or 15% on their purchases, they don’t stockpile like this

[@winnieng8512]

I believe it's not the store that suffers from these coupons but the vendors. If, lets say the person went in and brought $100 worth of BBQ sauce but only paid $80, it's the BBQ sauce company who pays the $20 difference to the supermarket. At least that's how it normally works when you go in to a store on a random day and saw that the product you're buying has a reduced price. I'm not too sure about the procedure when it comes to manufacture coupons; i assume it's the same.

[@bleucblancrouge]

Because only 1% of customers actually use the coupons

[@raia3766]

Way better than being an extreme cheapskate

[@lu-qx9gw]

i’m not even angry that’s just impressive as hell

[@natchosm4320]

Jesus, and yet here in the UK when I try to use one 20p coupon, it takes 3 cashier's, one manager and 20minutes of hassle..

[@chokistick9581]

Tried this in South Africa, same experience. Sucks but they are not that high value anyway

[@Tallidais]

Curious foreigner here, where do people get these coupons from? I know in my country I can only use one coupon per customer and it's usually not even worth the hassle of the cashier not knowing how to use them.

[@k.s.k.7721]

Periodicals, newspapers and individual grocery store chains print weekly coupons that come to your house if in the local newspaper, and are available at the entrance to each store. Many stores now also have "clipless coupons" which are connected to a customer loyalty card, which when presented and scanned by the cashier, deducts money from your total. There are even perks for buying any item in the vegetable or meat departments, or spending a minimum amount in one trip often comes with a discount for the entire transaction.

[@notthedoctor8621]

You pick a lot of them up from the paper trash, many people on these shows fish them out, and it's only thanks to Americas overzealous coupon policies. No supermarket in Europe let's you take advantage like this.
