Is this true?
We even have a video about milk in bags.

Thanks. NWT. Now I know where "over the rainbow is".
Plus the jugs are recyclable.
Some places in Ontario also recycle the bags. Just need to rince them out.

Yes, but will it be a noncontact sport, or is fist fighting allowed. Originally Posted by Lynx123

LOL! Could you imagine that Amanda chick (the one who's nasty to her husband) in a coupon Olympics? Geez, the stress she'd endure, would certainly send herself off in the deep end!
....well, I mean, "deeper" into the deep end!

KT the lady who had leave her stuff.She could have gone back the next day to complete especially since I think she special ordered the stuff.Some people who were on Extreme Couponing shopped and filmed over two days.Just creating artificial drama for the show.Who needs 250 containers about cookies.I sure I saw cases of Bugles in her order.The other lady Erin who gave her niece a home was nice.Couponing to an addition on her house was strange.Why not shop from her own stockpile to save money.

I think it's kind of funny that most of the people who have been on the show have either:
- Committed fraud: Decoding coupons (J'aime), making a store double coupons that normally does not double coupons (woman who argued about taxes being pre-coupons), stealing newspapers (chest tattoo woman)...
- Bought their coupons for almost the same value of the coupons (16 year old boy who shopped at the Very Expensive Grocery Store), thereby NOT saving anything.
- Went to another state just to be on the show because no store in their state doubles coupons (the marine DTS woman! Florida does not have Krogers!).
- Gives themselves a soubriquet (Coupon Queen, Cou-Pimp, etc.). Almost every single one of them.

What I think is interesting is they are allowed so many transactions.Basically they are shopping as though they are a different customer 6 to 50 different people.
