A question about : Extreme Savings-Coupons -who has the best strategy?Please share your ideas/savings

HI All,

Have just seen a new programme advertised on discovery realtime it's called Extreme Couponing looks like it may be worth a look. Now sure if it's just in America or here in the UK too. We may get some good ideas of it. NO date set as yet to when it will be aired but I would say it should start sometime within the next couple of weeks.

Best answers:

• It's just based in the USA. I have just watched the first 3 episodes.
• Here's the American site & Facebook https://tlc.com/extremecouponing https://www.facebook.com/ExtremeCouponing
  UK (description coming soon) https://press.discovery.com/uk/drt/pr...eme-couponing/
• It's crazy! just looking at the videos on the US site $368.xx down to $6.xx!!
• Women with 9 (yes NINE) trolly's of food & drink!
• It starts the 1st of May I had a look at the website looks interesting.
• Love It!...........
• But are not most of the coupons for ready meals and pre-packed items.
  There are a few coupons and vouchers for fruit and veg and meat but not many from my understanding.
  Yours
  Calley

• just saw the ad for this and searched the forums - clearly it has already been spotted! looks amusing! i suppose the closest thing here are some of the tesco points deals?
• I've watched the first 4 episodes, why can't we have that amount of coupons over here?! I'd love to give it a go!
• Yeah this looks fun, wish we could have this in UK too.
  It starts 9pm on Sunday 1st on Disc real time, repeated on real time plus at 10pm.
• Think i'm going to set this up on the Sky, I want to get into couponing here, need to buy myself a printer... Do you find the money you save on printing stuff out is worth the actual money you save?
• Caught this programme on Sky last night - was amazing! One woman had 4 trolley's full of shopping, the total was well over $1,000 and due to coupons, loopholes and other offers, she ended up paying about $50 for the whole lot!
• Has anyone heard of this programme- I caught it on Really Tv last night about 10pm. An american woman bought $600 worth of food/home stuff for a month but only paid $6!!! She had to organise it into 18 transactions to use her coupons- not sure I could ever be that organised but WOW! All credit to her for an amazing shop & stock that took over every crook in her house!!

• Funnily enough l was going to start the same thread, and l've now found the above threads, so l'm going to give this a go.....
  Trouble is in some stores (Morrisons for example) you're limited to the number of deals you can have, although l wouldn't be greedy like the American woman who cleared the shelf - all but one on the shelf of mustard. She reckoned it wouldn't go off but surely it would go off before you ate 53 bottles of the stuff
  And can you honestly see a UK store manager applauding you like the American ones did? You'd be hoiked out of the store and banned before you knew it.
