    I wish they would put in the cost of the coupons and cost of the taxes in any into the total prices.

    Zadia who doesn't have coupon binder any more you would think by the reaction of her friends you think they saw a dead body in the coupon room/office.They were so ridiculous you can't save without a coupon binder well if you have a good sale price and a coupon you save.That lady with her saving for an engagement ring if she didn't buy 50 lotions she would have had almost $35 towards her ring.That lady who had a living room full of her stockpile I thought she would throw a fit when she had to give her grocery trip to charity.Amanda didn't really help her parents they didn't get a balanced shopping trip so they can make meals from it.

    I saw the clip on the TLC channel.
    It's sad.

    i completely agree. i even said to my son... where are the fruits/veggies/ meat/ potatoes etc to make meals. unless you consider the boxes/packages of whatever they were buying. although i have occasionally seen a family shop sorta they way we do and using the overages etc to buy those thing.

    Please stage an intervention for me if I buy 50 bottles of lotion or 100s of toothpaste (which have an expiry date!). I don't get how they equal the coupon amt into money saved. It's crazy.

    That $500 "savings" was the stupidest thing I have seen in a very long time. If she had bought $500 worth of groceries that would fed them for a month or two that would have qualified. She may have saved more if she had just stayed home!

    Of course we'll stage an intervention.I agree it's definitely crazy.I think saving money is not spending money.

    How true she would have saved money staying home.She wouldn't have spent money on stuff she really didn't need in an amount she really didn't need.
