Whats her user name?

While I don't agree with her mass stcokpile of tear pads I don't think it is a good idea to post her SC name (if she indeed has one)

Your probably right.

You know what bugs me the most.... It's everytime I see this and go to a store and come home with some good savings, I can't help it, but think about when it all will end.
I am by no means an extreme couponer and only buy and take what I will use. Things ARE going to change the more publicity this gets and the more people who follow her ways. She has quite the possy over on her facebook page, all backing her up.

Wow, I just read through some of the posts on her facebook wall. Quite the drama zone over there.

I think it would open a whole bag of nasty worms if it was posted.

I agree with you. I hope that things don't change due to people like that. People have to be reeeeeally aware of what they post to the public cause I can't help but wonder if all the "stacking brags", etc didn't have something to do with the change in coupon wording from P&G

Not to toot my own horn but I think the TV interview us Scers did for Global( and the other gals in AB I think?) shed a real positive light on couponers and getting deals with out over doing it. JMHO

hoping get first choice from her tearpad stash during classes?

It bugs me that she likely will charge for classes for something that can be learned for free.

Those were the american stats, the Canadian ones from the same company will be out soon.

My original point remains; food prices have increased in the United States as well.

Oh boy, I watched the video, then read every comment in here. You are all so right and observant and have every right to be concerned that customers like her will negatively impact the use of coupons here in Canada.

I am only posting Joni's song for the reference to the chorus

" don't it always seem to go
that you don't know what you've got till it's gone "

Well she made sure the TEAR PADS were all gone.
Now we wait for the other shoe to drop I guess.

I also noticed a striking "similarity" between the recent weekly deals on her facebook page to the "Hot Deals" thread here in SC. I guess some could argue which came first....I'm just pointing out the identical posts.

She can teach as many people as she wants how to coupon. But if they can't find the coupons because she's taking the whole tear pads (including the cardboard backing) then what's the point??

Hahaha I was just thinking the same thing after seeing the video!!

Too many tear pads and too much BBQ sauce (Why do you need THAT much bbq sauce?) lol I`m all for stockpiling but not random stuff

[Sherbear609]

lol oh man I can just imagine..."How to use a Coupon for Dummies" taught by whatever her name is...

I could use that much especially the Guiness one

[Patty Smyth]

Hmmm not sure copying the Hot Deals thread is a good idea unless you are wiling to give credit where credit is due. Just saying, there are proper ways to share info.

too bad this lady is stealing AnneDougherty's hard work by copy and pasting Anne's work from the wiki to promote her own facebook couponing page...what clout...I reported it to Boo and Facebook..
