TLC Extreme Couponing

[Poirot]

October 26 Katherine and Joel 10pm and 12am ET/PT Katherine from New Hampshire has over 400 rolls of paper towel in her stockpile.She will embark on a major haul before taking a six month break from couponing.Californa's Joel is a 16 year old obsessed with couponing.

I read an article that Katherine went two days after she taped the show to buy more gum and the article said she has hundreds of packs of gum.

Heather shopped at Kmart advertised on the show tonight.Desperate to beat the other guys a.k.a. Walmart.A 10 minute commercial for Kmart.Let's see if they let other customers have multiple transactions.Her shelves are ready to collapse.Bree buying her groceries for a month nothing but sugar and frozen.Allowed multiple transactions again.Do they let other customers do that.Probably not

This show drives me crazy! I watched two episodes tonight and all the junk food and high sugar juices and cereals people buy just floor me. One lady had 12 boxes of Captain Crunch, dozens of sugary drinks, chocolate bars, etc., etc. Then there was the pregnant mom who was stocking up -- which is a really great idea -- but she bought 80 or 90 deodorant because she won't be shopping for 6 months. She must live with octopi!!!!

This show is like watching a train wreck for me....I can't look and I can't look away. Great entertainment but not so great for all of us normal couponers who get painted with the same brush. Really wish they could scan coupons here, though. That would be awesome.

Hawaiian Punch isn't pop it's not carbonated and it's not juice.I think it's coloured and flavoured sugar water.

The lady with all the deodorant has too much stockpiled feminine hygiene products.If she has a girl her daughter will be using them when she's a teen.

Yes, she has a lot of deodorant socked.
Although feminine hygiene product don't have an expiry date, the glues used in the adhesives do break down. I doubt that the sticky part will last that many years. Also, there will be "new and improved" products coming out all the time, IMO.

In the Perry and Melissa episode, Perry was stocking up on some good food that met her vegan diet. I don't think she bought as much junk food.

I was kind of joking but that's so true about the sticky part also the pad itself would be not very good after all those years and the plastic packaging would break down.

haha ok i didnt know that. I was just shocked they called it juice, trying to make people believe they are buying something somewhat healthy.

It really depends what country you're in. I don't think I've ever seen canned plain water in Canada, but they have it in the US and in Japan for sure.

It's like eastern Canada and bagged milk. Different places seem to have very different ways to package stuff. Hawaiian Punch seems to have a dozen different ways currently, it's just to cater to how people prefer to purchase their products. Definitely doesn't look like good-for-you real fruit juice by any means though.

No bagged milk in western Canada?
Is this true?

We even have a video about milk in bags.

They don't have bagged milk now in Alberta.They used to years and years ago.

I've lived in BC all my life and have never seen bagged liquid milk. Powdered, yes (my mom's family used to use it when she was a kid) but never liquid.
