Except for the hundreds or thousands of dollars in capital she wastes by having it lie around her house purely for decorative purposes never using it... her shopping is impressive but that doesnt make her anywhere near brilliant economically
How can a family of 3 use 6 gallons of milk b4 it expires? Plus she buys terrible and unhealthy food for her family just because it cost close to nothing.
@Anne Liesveld The coupons are put out by the manufacturers, and when you use a coupon in a grocery store, the manufacturer reimburses the grocery stores for the coupons. However, stores that give "double" the face value if a coupon only get reimbursed for the face value and not the doubled amount. Product manufacturers put out coupons as a form of advertising, as well as, a way to get someone to try their product for the first time with hopes they will continue buying it in the future. The Extreme Couponers are definitely not manufacturers' target audience with coupons
@Anne Liesveld Coupons are money, contrary to popular belief (manufacturers refund the store so couponers should not be looked down upon). It is just like John Jaxson already explained to you.
A lot of them donate things they don't use or give to family/friends. As for ppl moaning about the shop losing money, believe me, the shop is losing NOTHING If coupons are legit, shops get reimbursed from manufacturer
She's really smart actually, i mean she is saving a ton of money without wasting any food or hurting anyone, and she plans ahead to help her family's tough financial state Oh wow thanks for so many likes
I think she is hurting someone. Imagine getting in line behind her! And the grocery store has to pay an hour's wage for the cashier for every Karen like her that comes through. 🙄
human fucking being it took an hour to process all of that. She’s also greedy. Guaranteed there is no reason to be that greedy. Clearing out shelves for fuel the greed. Disgusting actually.
Bullie Belle true. The amount she paid wouldn’t even cover the freight to ship all that food into the store, pay the store overheads or the cashier. Pure greed.
The fact that she coped with the recession, have monthly meal plan, and keep the lifestyle consistent, its some survival skill, plus shes hot. One lucky husband
Not really. She spends as much time organizing as she would working an ordinary job. Id rather have a regular job and buy products I would actually want, than trying to find room in my house for 20 jars of mayonnaise.
some couponers are weird when they live alone and have 80 bottles each of 4 different laundry detergents, 1200 boxes of deodorant and a basket with 379 beauty products they will never use cause it's the same 2 tings over and over
I am not as good at these people at couponing but its only because some stores do not dpuble or.let you use the store coupon and the manufactures cpupon, but I do try to coupon and save.
I mean she prolly buys a bulk of unperishables with coupons since she’s not gonna be able to use them all quick enough, but I think she buys fresh stuff on the side aswell.
B Bodziak it’s when someone makes unnecessary scene at a store for something the other worker had already told her and ask for the manager. Example: At a GW store Mid-age lady comes up to customer service Karen- I’m looking for a 300% dishwasher soap , I can’t seem to find it. Worker- oh, we ran out that 2 days ago Karen - can you check the back? Worker(thinking)- oh No Worker-fine Goes to the back 5min, comes back Karen - was it over there? Worker- no, it wasn’t Karen- what!, I heard you had some, did you even look? Worker- ma’... Karen- can I speak to your manager (under breath- Liar) Manager- how can I help you Karen- yes, this dumb fool of a employee is saying there no more, I don’t even believe he checked the back! Manager- now calm down, what are you looking for? Karen 300% dishwasher Manager- I’m sorry we ran out of that Karen throws a fit , and rag on. The manager tried to calm her down finally giving her a gift card to stop her blasphemy and shenanigans
@@speedy123go1 I understand the what you wrote, but I know the kind of people you're talking about but I still don't see where you explained why she's called "Karen" specifically.
@@nicholebaker8085 yeah very few stores double or triple. I moved near an Albertson's 30 years ago and they quit doubling the week I moved in. I live in NW Florida though and some stores near snowbirds might double??
@@danijela_b82 There is a limit for coupons per customer, per visit. Usually there is a limit on how much you can buy per item as well. The cashier will have to get the manager to override limits. They usually do not override limits though. You could make multiple trips. Honestly, i clipped coupons for a couple of years. It seems to be for the items I don't buy or saving money on buying multiple things. Like save 5 dollars on 5 tubes of namebrand toothpaste. A real money saver would be to buy what is cheap in the first place or go to a different store where everything isnt marked up ikn price. I would hit 5-7 stores biweekly with a grocery list. I do not think these shows are real. On military bases we can use coupons up to 6 months after the expiration date and the cashiers did at one point override limits. I still have never saved 90% on my groceries. People have stockpiles and sale their stockpiles for profit. In some places it is illegal to buy things with coupons and resale them. I wouldnt be surprised if this is what the people in the show were doing.
yummy mummy my daughter(alone) finish a whole gallon of milk in a matter of 3 days, 4 if I’m lucky, so with a family of 6 I imagine they can go through it pretty quick. She did mention that 56 yogurts only last them 2 weeks or 2.5 so milk must not last long either
Yeah you cant do this anymore. Nowadays you're limited to certain amount of coupons you can use and a certain amount of product you can take per customer. Or at most places anyways.
How does the store allow coupons to be combined with items on sale or other coupons ? Cause in my country it’s one coupon per transaction + only on items not on sale
This is an old video - there are almost NO stores in the US that will double coupons anymore. However, almost all stores will allow you to use a coupon on a sale item, and each store has a different policy on how many you can use per transaction.❤️
You can only use 1 manufacturer coupon and 1 store coupon on an item that's on sale here in Texas. But there is a limit to how many same coupons you can use in 1 transaction depending on the store.
Te Fu I watched a few different episodes. I think it means, for example, if the store owes her $10 for tomato soup she can use the $10 to get a ham that cost $10.
Yes. I coupon mainly at CVS and occasionally walgreen. I have gotten moneymaker deal numerous times. Bascially where i get store credit which is more than what I'm spending. If you look up videos of cvs couponing you'll see what I mean
Or like when you buy things heavily discounted but there is still some other sort of promotion linked to it which is still valid such as a gift with purchase or buy x quantity to get another free one
Good for Jessica for actually using the products she buys in bulk. Many couponers buy crap they don't even use. The smart ones sell those items online to make money. Buy hey, if you have the time and organizational skills and are actually going to use what you buy, go for it. My understanding is that extreme couponing can take anywhere from 8-10 hours a day to do (counting the trips to the stores). That's literally a full time job. It's not for everyone and obviously every state and every store has different rules about using coupons. I don't think I can do this where I live. First of all, I wouldn't even obtain that many inserts and printables. Also, extreme couponing involves buying mostly non-perishable foods in bulk. I mean you can't buy 120 bananas or 37 bunches of broccoli, obviously they'll go bad. Canned and dry or heat 'n eat type foods aren't very healthy. Just my opinion, I'm not criticizing anyone's choices.
There comes a point, where your couponing, becomes ineffective. That point, is when your house starts to look like a store itself... Hypothetically, people can make money, and never go hungry, by clipping coupons and receiving a negative total... Right?
People don't realize that they coupons are basically dedicating nearly a full time work week to stocking shit they absolutely don't need. If these women instead went and gotten a job, they would get money that would actually serve their family.
@@OncleJer Not all extreme couponing take so much time. It gets pretty simple when you've been doing it for a while. If you're doing a lot of deals which she does there a different story. As a h.s student I wouldn't have the time or patient to be doing that much deals. And yeah you're right you CAN get a lot of items for free or cheap if you want but it's a choice whether or not to buy it. I Personally I buy what I need unless it a moneymaker or cheap then I typically sell it on FB marketplace for half the store price. Yes its silly to buy things you dont need but I have a plan for everything I purchase and not leaving it for display .
Is it just me or does it seem like some supermarkets have like an unofficial ration or limit on products? I don't just mean things like toilet paper or baby formula but it's as if the shops just want to hoard everything and don't want to sell it to you
Alot really do. They get so much and once or twice a year make a big donation. But to keep from getting the "big head" comments they would rather just not say anything about it. I know in my area, people know to call my house if they know anyone in need. I don't coupon or anything like these ladies but we have a farm and I volunteer at a food bank. I can help with what I can share from our own household and direct them to the food pantry once a month.
Some do. Some don't. If they don't typically they sell it which I understand cause couponing take a lot of work plus you still gotta pay taxes which can be add up to a lot of money
This a very smart move. I wish we have coupons here in my country but unfortunately no. Maybe only on special occasions. Coz i will seriously do that to save like 90% thats a great deal.
I don't think so...I mean, she has everything organized by product, coupon, transaction....what would be a mess is if she just handed a pile of coupons to the cashier and the 56 yogurts were interspersed with everything else in her carts. It also looked like she did not shop at peak times when there are 15 people in line waiting to check out as well.
I like the way she helps her husband by saving money on food. I would love to try one day using coupons but dont know how to start. And shes smart planing the meals. I think im going to start doing that.
Hats of for being able to be that organized and great at the calculations. Also she bought vitamins which the large family can use and earned money to buy other non- coupon necessities. No wastage and hoarding was my favourite bit.
Well I hope she does all that boxes of just cereal you couldn't eat all that I guess you could but you won't have to buy no more hopefully she helps other people she didn't say that oh lol
Taking so much inspiration from her actually extreme couponing with a purpose for everything because my fam is going through a hardship and we don't have much for groceries, nor space for 54 laundry detergents
all fine and dandy, but the major PLUS in this video is that the store matches to coupon!!! In my area where I live all stores stopped doubling coupons years ago! So none of this would've worked!
This is over 10 yrs old from original air date. Stores no longer allow customers to make transactions like that anymore. Thanks to shows like this that became popular!
Yes! After these shows were aired and the secret was out the stores changed their coupon policy. Now, the customer is limited to a certain number of coupons per person/per transaction/per day. The coupons have also changed with shorter expiration time, lower coupon value and buy 2 or 3 of the item to get the coupon discount. This show basically ruined the potential for couponing to get free food.
Wow, so many mean people on here. I hope you know this episode is nearly 10 yrs old and you really cant coupon like this anymore. She started couponing when we were going thru a recession. She found away to take care of her family. There's nothing wrong with that. Unfortunately this show got way out of hand and it ruined a lot of couponing for others. Don't get me wrong you can still coupon here but the show made it harder to coupon on a larger scale. They had some all star episodes and some were buying coupons that were counterfeit.
sure this was uploaded 3 years ago, but I went through some of the older comments and was amazed how so many were mad that she did not donate it and how everything would go to waste. Milk, Cheese, Meat, and many things can be frozen to keep fresh for a long time. They buy stuff/food for the said month and do not hoard it like some other extreme couponers that were shown in other episodes. She plans food for the entire month, where she only had 160 dollars for a family of 8? If I heard it correctly as she said she had 6 kids. For people being like 56 yogurts will go bad before being eaten, she said she had 6 kids, and the yogurts and milk will be gone before you know it, and the same with cereal. Me and my brother alone went through a big box of cereal in 4-5 days depending on how much we ate or secretly ate from it. I think she is way better than the others who buy tons of stuff they do not really need, and have it all on a random shelf or even have an entire storage room and still need more space to store the things they buy. As for donating? So many are shouting at her to donate, or how coupons are for the poor, she herself only has 160 dollars per month, she should count as one of the people who need them.
I’ve watched a couple of these videos and it’s I agree it is entertaining to me how upset people get, but they don’t seem to pay full attention because she does say she has a big family and there was another one. I watched where people were mad they didn’t donate it to charity when it shows at the end of the video that they did donate it to charity
her kids won’t be able to ask her to eat at mcdonald’s cuz there really is food at home...
😂😂😂
Kid: " can we go get McDonald's?"
Mom: "No, we have 56 cups of yogurt at home"
Stupid Spaghetti 😂
We never know. Maybe once in a while they eat at MC Donalds. But maybe not as often as everybody.
Asen Asuzagawa u took it too literal
She actually uses everything she’s getting and she has a meal plan she’s definitely my favorite so far
Except for the hundreds or thousands of dollars in capital she wastes by having it lie around her house purely for decorative purposes never using it... her shopping is impressive but that doesnt make her anywhere near brilliant economically
She expends more than enough time on these trips that would be better spent working an actual job.

This a very smart move. I wish we have coupons here in my country but unfortunately no. Maybe only on special occasions. Coz i will seriously do that to save like 90% thats a great deal.
What a nightmare for the cashier
I don't think so...I mean, she has everything organized by product, coupon, transaction....what would be a mess is if she just handed a pile of coupons to the cashier and the 56 yogurts were interspersed with everything else in her carts. It also looked like she did not shop at peak times when there are 15 people in line waiting to check out as well.
This time they really do have food at home.
These exteme couponers are gonna survive the Corona virus
I like the way she helps her husband by saving money on food. I would love to try one day using coupons but dont know how to start. And shes smart planing the meals. I think im going to start doing that.
Hats of for being able to be that organized and great at the calculations. Also she bought vitamins which the large family can use and earned money to buy other non- coupon necessities. No wastage and hoarding was my favourite bit.
Dam with all that items u can help some one in need .
More like a whole small village
I would love to have her teach me not give me that would be more help in long run
but isn't she gonna use all of it? :o apparently she planned all of the months meals
Some of these couponers should give away some of their food to homeless people if they aren’t using all of it and just keeping it stocked
Many of them do. I have a friend who does this and she donates to a woman's shelter several times a year.
Even the donations get piled up and they threw a lot of expired food. I addition, they need volunteers to help them to get ride of expired products.
Nope. They can do as they wish with them.
happiness some do.
Well I hope she does all that boxes of just cereal you couldn't eat all that I guess you could but you won't have to buy no more hopefully she helps other people she didn't say that oh lol
If we had coupons like this in the UK I would definitely do the same! 😂
It's a LOT of effort though
well we know who’s vibing during the quarantine bc she doesn’t have to go to the store💀😂
That’s so coool
She’s so smart
I love how she gets what her family needs she doesn't do it just cause and she knows it helps her husband out also
She shops at Albertsons which explains a lot. They always have a lot of sales and coupons.
I hope they would buy some extra non processed food once in a while...
4:37 tip for couponers, get the smaller size which is cheaper most of the time, as long as the coupon don't exclude it
I like her. She actually buys what she needs and uses, not just whats on sale and what coupons she has😀
She has definitely asked the manager if one of her coupons didn't work, lmao
MK Documentary if I was saving hundreds I’d ask for the manager too n honestly wouldn’t you?😂😭
now this is a super mom!!!! I have so much respect for this woman!!
3:96 🤣 the dad lmaoo
Crazy i wish we had this in the UK.
I wish the grocery stores were this quite when i go shopping.
It’s great as long as you’re not behind her in line!
Shes so smart, this involves math and planning. And shes saving?! I would love to have a stockpile in my house 😍
She’s spending as much time organizing as she would working at a job.
@@NemeanLion- And instead she gets to stay home with her kids and husband. 😉
Sarah Anderson Ugh 😑
Good for you, way to work the system
HER: Goes home and makes kids and husband unload the truck while she goes to the couch and turns on her favorite soap opera show.
ElcheReyes475 قصغثي she deserves it lmao she's doing all this crazy maths and shit and they get a crap ton of food for pennies
@@solitairesimp1239 Damn right. Family should pitch in and help each other. Why should she have to do all the work?
Difference between me and her couponing... I donate like half to all of it... it’s a great way to help those in need and you don’t have to spend much
I'm out for myself. Gtfo of my way 😡
Comparing yourself to her doesn’t make you a good person
@@ErinMar Stop yelling Erin!!!!
Jesse M. Lol what
Erin I didn’t say I was lmao 😂 I was just saying what I do.
If you really think about it she has a full time job figuring that out, so if you factor that in with a min wage job she’s basically working for food.
Plus, expenses for supplies like ink, paper, etc
This is what viewers are missing. They just see the savings.
So organized omg this is so soothing and healing
I wish it were like this still 😭😩 I miss when my mom would coupon it was so fun
Taking so much inspiration from her actually extreme couponing with a purpose for everything because my fam is going through a hardship and we don't have much for groceries, nor space for 54 laundry detergents
This is some tough math man hahaa
She seems sweet and this is one case where the extreme couponing isn't stressing the family out.
5:00 imagine having toilet paper in a store
im watching this during quarantine, and I'm jealous as hell. She was genius for this.
all fine and dandy, but the major PLUS in this video is that the store matches to coupon!!! In my area where I live all stores stopped doubling coupons years ago! So none of this would've worked!
This episode originally aired several years ago, back when doubling coupons was still a thing.
Great job! Oddly enough they never check the experiation dates on anything they buy.
This one is a great wife making sure their money is spread further in hard times. She's doing whats right for her family
She is managing to free her family for less than 1$ per person per day - that’s incredible
Of all of the Extreme Couponing episodes, I like this one the best.
Me too.
She seems very smart.
This is over 10 yrs old from original air date. Stores no longer allow customers to make transactions like that anymore. Thanks to shows like this that became popular!
Yes! After these shows were aired and the secret was out the stores changed their coupon policy. Now, the customer is limited to a certain number of coupons per person/per transaction/per day. The coupons have also changed with shorter expiration time, lower coupon value and buy 2 or 3 of the item to get the coupon discount. This show basically ruined the potential for couponing to get free food.
Wow, so many mean people on here. I hope you know this episode is nearly 10 yrs old and you really cant coupon like this anymore. She started couponing when we were going thru a recession. She found away to take care of her family. There's nothing wrong with that. Unfortunately this show got way out of hand and it ruined a lot of couponing for others. Don't get me wrong you can still coupon here but the show made it harder to coupon on a larger scale. They had some all star episodes and some were buying coupons that were counterfeit.
Well good, now she can actually put those hours toward a real job and actually earn a salary, instead of spending hours to get 54 yogurts
Her haul can still be accomplished today. May take a couple of trips to the store. Extreme couponing is still very lucrative.
she's hoarding 700 dollar worth of food at home? that's ambitious
I want this so bad in Austria!!!! Here it's not possible to get something free with coupons!! The only good deal we get is 2 for 1 😬🤔😤😤😤
Hahaha 😂 would be great also to use some coupons in Europe
Yes she's smart and I like her way of couponing
I wish coupons were for fresh foods 😭
They are out there if you look. Search for the fresh foods + coupons of foods you normally buy.
Honestly some of these extreme couponers are actually very nice and organized unlike the cheapskates
I get her, she uses everything and has 6 kids. Must be tough without coupons
sure this was uploaded 3 years ago, but I went through some of the older comments and was amazed how so many were mad that she did not donate it and how everything would go to waste. Milk, Cheese, Meat, and many things can be frozen to keep fresh for a long time. They buy stuff/food for the said month and do not hoard it like some other extreme couponers that were shown in other episodes. She plans food for the entire month, where she only had 160 dollars for a family of 8? If I heard it correctly as she said she had 6 kids. For people being like 56 yogurts will go bad before being eaten, she said she had 6 kids, and the yogurts and milk will be gone before you know it, and the same with cereal. Me and my brother alone went through a big box of cereal in 4-5 days depending on how much we ate or secretly ate from it.
I think she is way better than the others who buy tons of stuff they do not really need, and have it all on a random shelf or even have an entire storage room and still need more space to store the things they buy. As for donating? So many are shouting at her to donate, or how coupons are for the poor, she herself only has 160 dollars per month, she should count as one of the people who need them.
I’ve watched a couple of these videos and it’s I agree it is entertaining to me how upset people get, but they don’t seem to pay full attention because she does say she has a big family and there was another one. I watched where people were mad they didn’t donate it to charity when it shows at the end of the video that they did donate it to charity
I feel like when u do this you should always bring bags that are reusable because it waste plastic bags and that’s how animals get harmed
or she can just recycle them later on ....
@@carlossaenz683 plastic bags can't be recycled
Good job on saving for your family and helping your husband, womans like should exist everywhere
Such a good wife. Hope my son finds a wife like this.
She is a virtuous woman
This lady is incredible!
Lol "She saved like 90% or something"
No sweetheart .. just no 😐
Coupons are to her as tax loops are to rich people.
This good enough for a whole year through the Coronavirus!!
Very fortunate to find a wife like her. Keep it up !!!
On some of the things she legit is getting paid to buy them
