[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 430821, member: 84"] Step I'll look to see if I have coupons for that brand. And I'll watch for them for you too. Starbie if you want to pm me the info I'll be glad to mail doggie snack coupons to you. They'll expire before I can use them all......easy child and nichole clipped and gave me theirs so I have too many I can use. Star hear ya on these self proclaimed coupon diva's who are aiming to be on the next show or something. easy child and I are careful to be very polite and cheerful, we have our coupons organized (plan has been checked twice before leaving home), we have what we're buying organized.......and do our best to make it as easy on the cashiers as possible. We've both been cashiers, we know what being on the other side of the register can be like at times. No way in hades do we do anything like the frigging 4 cart fulls of junk thing. We've not filled up a cart yet. Mostly because we shop for deals first......then we shop for the other things we need. Stealing the coupons in my opinion is just so over the top.....omg......really? Stealing is stealing. Makes me furious. Like that lady on the show who was trying to claim she only took sunday papers from houses that had been foreclosed on.........then why did she have her hubby driving the getaway car and darting in and out as if she were STEALING them?? Foreclosed house or not, someone else paid for those papers. Show should've yanked that person. Just saw one where the couple who went shopping together were confronted by management that they couldn't buy half their list because it was restricted to one per HOUSEHOLD........gee, I wonder why? Could it be from people selfishly clearing store shelves? Woman was all upset cuz the 4k purchase she planned to cost 4 bucks had been knocked out of the water. Boo hoo. Go cry me a river elsewhere. No one is going to convince me a family of 3 needs to make a 4k purchase in a grocery store whether it's with cash or coupons. omg The extremers are gonna ruin it for all of us if the powers that be don't wise up fast and put pressure on them to yank the show. Which is a shame in a way........showing people how to save money is not a bad thing........but this is ridiculous. I have friends that have been trying to get me to do coupons for years. The lousy economy and seeing how much could be saved prompted me to bite the bullet and learn how. The show also should show people who save a ton by NOT wiping out store shelves and having a stock pile in their houses that could last them a decade. I pray the vast majority of new converts fall by the way side when they grow weary of how much work is involved in that over the top extreme way to shop. Or when their neighbors confront them over stealing their coupons........ [/QUOTE]
