Thank you. Hopefully they'll post the video online.

I wonder what their idea of "extreme" will be.

I heard it's going to be "Extreme Couponing Mom" Aimee G on the show highlighting how to feed a family on $25 a week shopping at RCSS or something along those lines

ECM will be attempting to purchase a week's worth of groceries for including fresh meat, produce, milk, and more for $20-25.

I can see this being doable if you're doing a lot of PM'ing at Walmart for the meat/produce, then using overages from other "non-essentials" to over those costs. She'll probably be using the $1 berries coupon from the Mini-Wheats boxes to be able to exclaim "yes, there are coupons for fresh fruit!" Of course the initial investment to buy the cereal(s) will probably not be factored.

It will be interesting if the segment actually includes a week's worth of meal planning from the items purchased. THAT would be impressive. It would also be impressive (and realistic) if no FPCs are used. Having a table full of groceries including a mystery tubes of ground beef, pasta sauce, 20x boxes of free pasta (with coupons), a bag of apples, a bunch of bananas, a box of cereal, and a bag of milk, along with a ton of trial sized pharmaceuticals would be.... less impressive.

You know what. To us it would be less than impressive but to people who don't believe free can happen. They would be floored. Those viewers just need to get on SC and see what we can really do with our coupons

Saw Panebello on the checkout belt. Must have been filmed last week.

Does anyone know if the video can be found online? I set an alarm for 9:30 so I could get up and watch it but I woke up and hit snooze and then slept till 10:55 LMAO

Just finished watching. Didnt mention anything about "fresh produce" coupons but she mentioned PMing, PMing to Chinese supermarkets for even cheap produce and meats. Also talked about the flyer apps, and the coupon apps

[margy]

Yes, she had several FPC's, including Special K cereal and Chapman's.
I've seen those glossy Chinese supermarket flyers in my mother's west-end
Toronto (Etobicoke) neighbourhood, but I think you have to shop local
in order to price-match. What didn't strike me as doable was pm'ing
ground beef and then double-dipping with the 30% off sticker.
