They should have called it "extreme FPC collectors" because none of the aside from the girl who was disqualified used coupons aside from FPC's, the pizzas, jerkry, water, tide, all FPC's. Then the girl who got disqualified bought all trial items.... pretty lame if you ask me. Anyone can go get 100 trial packs of advil for free... but how do you feed your family with that?
I havent watched this show in like 2 months and im glad i havent because its not realistic at all.
its greed, hoarding and disgusting
i think it's an entertaining show but not realistic for canadian living
The woman who was hiding clothes just made me feel sick....'''Look...I hid stuff...and it's still there ...and I'll get it..."""" Barf!
I get the impression that if the staff had re-hung it she would have thrown a fraking hissy-fit....
Actually there was two ladies who hid stuff one lady hid a scarf in a drawer then didn't buy it because she bought jeans instead.One lady I thought was so disgusting was the one peeing around the corner.Then the lady who was doing 6 transactions it should be one transaction per customer then squawking about the $100 gift card had only $50 on it then she was given $100 gift card I bet it was used before I thought check your gift card before you use them.Her husband aka pack mule took their son for ice cream instead shopping was good.The lady getting money back from a paper gift certificate that would never happen.I think the lady who's sister grabbed the wrong netbook got another regular price one for the same sale price that wouldn't happen without tv cameras.Quote:

Totally jeaous of the free camera with a $40 purchase at Old Navy! Never seen that in Canada.
I would bet those razors were one per person or one per family.I think 15 razors was for the tv cameras.Old Navy has more competition so they have to give away more stuff to get customers in the U.S.Quote:

I NEVER go out to Boxing Day sales or any Midnite Madness sales. I know we Canadians are a polite bunch but when it comes to some sales, politeness just goes out the window. I went to one of these sales and these people are crazy!
I agree.Quote:

I went out on boxing day once it was a zoo Never Ever again
hmmmm, only one person posted. I wonder if they were mistaken, and had heard about the US deal, or if Canada had the same.Quote:

February 12 on TLC another new Extreme Couponing show Black Friday Blitz four couponers around the country have a tricked out RV as their home base and coupon-terages and do whatever to get their deals.
Wait. An RV? I'm thinking the money they spend renting or maintaining the RV + gas, would not equal their savings from couponing, IMHO.Quote:

I looked at the Black Friday show again. The one with the RV parked. Turns out that I misspoke. They already own the RV. It really looks goooood inside.
You're so right it looks good.Wonder if they had a coupon for it.Just kidding.Quote:

I was there for Black Friday....and that camera was so not worth the wait! The Old Navy I went to said people were lined up more then24 hrs and those were the people who got the camera!!! Nuts..I say!!!Quote:

Hehehe.
Old navy Canada has given away a couple of cameras on boxing day in the past
You know, they are nuts but they're not hurting anyone. And the one woman did get alot of items for charity. The young boy who got a bike was soo happy and surprised that someone would do that for him. Nice
I was reading Extreme Couponing news stories today.Joel used fake free toilet paper coupons and his mother had to pay for the toilet paper.Quote:
