I just researched it and they had everything she did broken down to a tee

. They have screencaps, UPCs, etc on how she defrauded the stores she shops at.

Isn't that crazy?! I saw it on a blog and apparently she used to make youtube videos on how to do it!  I guess the couponing community is strong because they ran her off some sites

I've somewhat tried this and it seems impossible.. One per purchase. 4 like transactions per trip per day per visit. Almost every coupon I see has a limit. COupon doubling? No place near me does this... Many of the coupons I have expire within 2 months.. When will said item magically appear on sale at a place near me and then have that DOUBLE? They say go to manufacturers websites for more coupons.. Not much there really. It's crazy what some of these people have built. I heard the stores are letting them do some of this just for the cameras. The show has pretty much been laughed by the coupon community.

I could see my significant other doing it on 4-5 items that we would be buying anyway to save $5-10 bucks. To have a hunters mentality and go to 10 diff. stores to see where an item is the cheapest to be able to buy 25 of said items seems reckless and a waste of valuable time.

This is just a more organized version of hoarding. I'm convinced that this is the same mental disorder, but disguised as "saving money."

i agree, spending 6 hour days walking around comparing sales and deals with other near by supermarkets, and buying coupons online is over doing it almost obsessive.
