walmart brag-funny guy in front of me

[cheapNcheeky]

I don't get why people want to live their life being so negative to others. It's exhausting!

And I bet he's putting his purchase on an already maxed out credit card....he's probably fine carry a balance and paying interest charges out the butt lol. Who's the fool now?

[Sunshyne1]

If he saw a twoonie and a loonie on the ground would he step by it and think its too much trouble to bend down and get it.

ooohhhh,....good come back! I'll have to remember that one!

[seylz_gurl]

what a rude so and so. he made a fool of himself not you. it is becoming the norm that people use coupons.

Great job on the deals and great job for not letting his ignorance get to you!!! Even if it were only $3 you were saving, $3 here and there still adds up. It amazes me that people want to waste their money, but that's their choice, but to come down on those who are smart enough to save their money....I just don't get it!!!

[nicolthepickle]

I always think about $3 as a free coffee for me.

[misstarbender]

This is why I always try to do my shopping in the evening (after 9pm) not that I care if there are people waiting behind me...Im saving money...they can huff and puff all they want. The other night I was at safeway and pretty much had a coupon for every item I was purchasing...and I had about 30 items..there was one guy behind me and I kept saying sorry sorry almost done and chuckling. He had no problem waiting and was having as much fun watching my total go down as I was. After everything was bagged and I was leaving I said sorry again to him and he said "no problem! good for you!!"
I wish more people would be as understanding and curious as he was!!

[monkeyluva69]

That guy was a jerk!

I absolutely hate it when people think that those who use coupons are "cheap" and only waste others who wait in line's time just to save a couple of bucks. Drives me nuts!

If they don't want to join us on the savings, it's better for us! We can go farther than they will ever!

I recently learned that in the 60s, no wife in Canada could leave the house without her coupon book...

I love to say right then to the person, "You know what my favorite quote is", Its "" I never learned anything by talking"".

[frugalkitty]

Wow some people...makes me think of

"It's better to be silent and thought of as a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubts"

People just don't get it, if you save every time you shop it really adds up.

I'm not surprised it was a guy, there was a BOGO deal on bread at the grocery and a male coworker only took one loaf saying he only needed one...ummmm duhhh do you have a freezer?

[princesskimmi]

Some people are just oblivious. All he thinks is its a savings of $3. Not how many times we save $3 and more. Just this year alone in coupon savings I saved $6200. If he saw a twoonie and a loonie on the ground would he step by it and think its too much trouble to bend down and get it. Really some people. We are not asking him to coupon or making snide remarks to him for not using a coupon. So why the need for him to say anything at all really.

Love your comment - He'd probably pick up a quarter Now I know what I'm gonna say if someone behind me ever rolls their eyes at my coupons - Well you'd pick up a dollar wouldn't ya...

[KK7]

mmm I guess I shouldn't tell him about my 40.00 worth of coupon use in my last shop? lol Great deals!!!!!

[torontogal12]

Love your reply! That would shut him up good

I love my coupons and tend to warn people behind me I am going to be using them, but then I also try and give them a couple for their own shopping. To people who say what is the big deal about saving money. I simply turn around and say, actually I save more then half every time I shop. That means I can travel to cuba twice a year and eat like a Queen. What did your grocery shopping buy you?

[torontogal12]

My husband used to have this mentality. Drove me bonkers. Duh. It's free. I'll save it for later!! Took me 6 months to convert him

You should have said "here's those $3. Buy yourself some manners." lol

At least not all people are like this. One time at Freshco a dude behind me looked at the screen as the cashier input my coupons. It was only $5.50 but he turned to his wife and said "wow, couponing is worth it. She saved $5.50!"

[cath007]

That story remind me when I when to my Maxi last week and use coupons + ask for ''bons différés'' and price matching....well my neibourghood (I would say old women to be polite)was on the line and act like a monkey she makes faces and change her line because she was waiting....if I want to save money and use coupons it's my right....some people dot not to manage herself in public or in their life...who look like a crazy one ...welll not me...
