Been told to look out for a programme on Sky 'real time'. It's called 'Extreme Couponing'

These people are taking it to unbelivable levels! $1000 shopping for less than a $1!!!  :ohmy:

We recorded it so it's going to be interesting....

Similar to people 'doing' competitions in magazines.       Cheers,     Tony.

my wife watches it all the time...its pretty amazing to watch there bill go from $1700 to $16 through all them coupons!...however us in the UK arnt so fortunate...you can only use one coupon per shop per time (say 20p off butter) here whereas there they can use as many as they want so if your butter is £2.00 they would just put 10 coupons in and get it for free.

great to watch but a shame we cant do it! lol

Years ago you could use coupons in shops as long as they sold the item even if you hadn't actually purchased it.

Mum's neighbour used to cut them out of mags etc and saved enough money for her annual trip to Spain.

Now of course this isn't allowed

I do try hard to save with coupons and vouchers but nothing very impressive I'm afraid  :(

We watched this before we got rid of Sky.  Amazing, but can you imagine trying to do it in this country?

No way......... :unsure:
