Over $100 of groceries for the price of 1 fast food meal

[fredysmama]

This lady doesn't care! Right on tv she admits she clears the shelves out Sunday after Sunday...I mean even if you do, don't admit it!

[altha2008]

She is just working the system like rich people works the system. It is legal.

I'm on food stamps due to parkinsons get $145 per month.

I use coupons and get a lot of overage and use it to buy real food like steaks, ribs, other meats. veg, eggs milk for about 10% on the dollar

every month I have about $75 overage on my food stamps

[1111rhn]

@slayerglade Yeah, same here and i'm in America- stores have that coupons cannot be combined with any other offer- I guess I gotta move to places that don't- our store even charge more if you don't buy 2- if it says 2 for a dollar- if you only buy one they charge .59 cents- so, you are actually paying more!

[1111rhn]

ok so, how do you do it step by step? The stores here limit how much you can get 1st of all. 2nd they did away with double coupons around here. Even when they did allow double coupons- there was a .99 cents max face value on the coupon. 3rd most coupons now are get 50 cents off if you buy 2- so, it's not a savings cause they hike up the price to make up the difference.

[capacity96]

@1111rhn Where do you live hun? I'm in Utah and there's no store around me that doubles coupons (within an hr at least). Yet if I make a list and pull my coupons before hand I can save about 70 percent. The trick is to know your prices. Know when something that's "on sale" is actually on sale or if it's not. And knowing when something is at a good enough price to stock up on 2 or 3 months worth of it. Take cereal for instance. 1 of my local stores is having a major sale. tbc

[htowngurl17]

@1111rhn greatest comment ever everything you said is soo true

[1111rhn]

@htowngurl17 Thanks. I hate these reports that talk about something great like this and then fail to fully explain how you do it! The Grocery stores here don't even let you use a coupon if the face value is more than the item costs. Years ago I used to save $20-$30 ea grocery trip. I stopped because they did away with the double coupons. It'd cost me 3 times more than I normally would spend if I used coupons now.

[stephaniehetzer]

Actually the stores get their money back by the manufacturers, so no they aren't being scammed. It's just like getting paid. If they weren't I'm sure they wouldn't take coupons.

[yeniceri1015]

She isn't being savy, she is gaming the system and robbing the grocery stores. Stores put items on sale at below cost sometimes as a benefit to their customers. Then these scam artists come in and game the whole system. Given enough of them the supermarkets are forced to raise prices on many everyday items to make up for the loss these cherry pickers are hitting them with.

[TheBrodge]

@yeniceri1015 She isn't robbing anyone. The company pays the store back PLUS 8 cents. They make money. When stores double coupons, it is the store's way of getting people to come to their store. The people that coupon are smart... unlike you. It's one thing you have an opinion but it's another thing when there is no factual evidence supporting it.

[yeniceri1015]

@TheBrodge And exactly how many super markets have you managed?

[TheBrodge]

@TheBrodge What about you? First of all, I am a MAJOR couponer. You have to know what is going on before you begin couponing on a level where your saving 50% +. Because of your stubborness and refusal to this way of shopping, I bet you have never read the fine print on a single coupon.

[n1cl1Ab3ll318]

Hi! If you have any expired coupons or almost close to expire please don't throw it away. You can donate it to us here in military base so we can use it. Just send your expire coupons @ PSC 473 BOX 518 FPO AP 96349-0518. We can still use expire coupons 6 months past the expiration date. Thanks!

[MrHopechild]

Kathy excuse was so stupid. the ink gets on her hands what the fuck i never got ink on my hands and hell with 7 kids she should jump to save more money

[l2iz0]

I think it's funny that people give various reasons and excuses why they don't use coupons. When coupons basically represent free money that goes towards a purchase.

[SSFwinner]

May I be frank? First, should we really be put in the position of using coupons to buy our food? Are we really as dumb as sheep? Are we all missing the point here? When was the last time you got a raise at your JOB (Just Over Broke)? When was the last time your boss offered you the opportunity to make more than them? When was the last time you took a vacation, including a wkd and never had to charge it? Trading time for dollars is dead but dollars for dollars dot com is a very real solution

[Chrisiishere]

@SSFwinner No you may not be frank your logic in scamming us to go to a scam website is stupid get off the internet troll.

[SSFwinner]

@Chrisiishere - an ass in every crowd...and broke one at that...why does that not surprise me.

[vongoth01]

Very nice!

anyone looking for coupons? I have lots of coupon codes for Restaurant. com on my channel. Save extra cash on your dining from the best restaurants in various key cities.

I'll be adding more soon! :-)

[LoudCitizen]

I am not knocking coupons or using grocery store circulars wisely. Just consider the whole picture, and learn to cook from scratch with extremely inexpensive raw materials + couponing -- a far greater savings than couponing alone. And be aware that it's almost impossible to find coupons for carrots, milk, fruit and other healthy fresh produce. Forget the Turkey Hill ice cream, and make your own from scratch. It's spectacular, and worth the investment in an ice cream maker. (And good exercise!)

[LoudCitizen]

This woman is doing great things for others, and I respect her amazing abilities, don't get me wrong. But if you really want to save money, you do not buy Juicy Juice and Snapple, you make healthy drinks from scratch for about 1/20th the price per ounce, and no sugar. You never buy packaged foods just because you have a coupon, you buy the raw materials (veggies, fruits, grains, legumes) and make things from scratch -- again, at a fraction of the price you spend with your double-double coupons.

[kmodek]

My problem is that I'm only buying for me and my daughter. I go to Aldi's and if I go to all the other places, even using coupons, I'm still going to spend more because I have to buy more just to qualify for the discounts. And the coupons tend to be for stuff that I don't usually buy and it costs more even with coupons than what I buy at Aldi's. I wish there were a way to get an equivalent deal without having to buy so MUCH.

[broadwayFan28]

Store brands less than coupon shopping. See any fresh fruit, fresh veggies for meat without SN coupons? No. Most of the coupon is for foods we need to get away from.

[prettyinpunk666]

@broadwayFan28 If you mean store brands cost less than other brands with coupons, that's entirely false, I'm stocked with brand name items for pennies. And while yes, it is less common to find fresh item coupons, it isn't impossible. Companies like Dole send out coupons on a regular basis, and store promotions or farmer's stand clearances can get you a lot of fresh food for very little. It's not that hard if you really try :)

[26alexther]

this is just great , I just started doing this. I never did because i felt embarrased but now with 4 kids i need to save some money.

[gilli39]

They said "coupon" so many times in this video the word has lost all meaning.

[crewlla]

@slayerglade if you can afford it, we save 1000 and when superstore brings out its spend 250 get a gift card for 25 we spend 250 in one store 250 in another store the next day 250 in one store and 250 in another. use there charge card for every purchase then come home transfer the money on to the card. you made out with 100 in gift cards and 20 on the card for using it. that I think is the only way we as canadians can get good deals and watch your superstore flyers some times you can get more.

[crewlla]

@slayerglade I am in canada too and the "cannot be combined with any other offer." from what I know is only for canada. (shipping reasons) we can use a manufatures coupon with a store coupon as long as it does not have the cannot be combined coupon wording on the coupon; that being said, if you do try to use both coupons the store you use it at usually give you a hard time over it. They question it like you are actually trying to rip them off.

[nanaswreaths]

We are a family of 8 and this week i got right at $455 for just $11 and change after coupons....It does work!! It takes some time to learn the art....but it pays off like you wouldnt believe!!!

[Misshappybunny123]

totally love using coupons, but clearing off the shelves is not cool

[crewlla]

bread in canada, 2.00 milk in canada 4.00-----no coupons.

[baerabas]

@crewlla true, coupons are really a US thing... but at least we got one badass "coupon" with medicare.

[crewlla]

@baerabas I agree. If it wasnt for our healthcare we would have alot of problems in the winter.

[ReannaMichele]

Also if they don't have what you're looking for in the flyers, take a raincheck. :)

[diverdantv]

go to getdeepdiscount over 20,000 free coupons online

[mygeniepromo]

[Realfreestuffforall]

Always Intrigued.....Thank you from lilypadfreebies ~ Savings!

[nuji78]

I truly think coupons are like real money. Yesterday I got a box of free Always 100 pack, 3 bottles of 150ML of face cleanser from Origins.

The Always was 9.95 and the 3 bottles of face cleansers is $20 each...so $60 dollars but I got $70 dollars of items for FREE.

[openparenthesis]

"I'd like to use my coupons now please." WHO SAYS THAT?

[sociopathpsych]

@openparenthesis that bitch. lol.

[AlleeToler]

I love coupons. Just today I was at Ralph's with a couple coupons.

They had a sale, buy 4 kellogg's cereal boxes get 2 gallons of milk free. Cereal was 4 for $10. Great sale alone there, I had a $1.50 off 1 kellogg's box. So I used 4 of them, 1 for each box. I got 4 boxes of cereal and 2 gallons of milk for $4.

Gogurt was on sale 2 for $4. I had a 1.00 off manfac's coupon, a $1 off online MF's coupon, .40cents off 1 coupon, and a .80 off 2 coupon. Gogurt cost me $0.40

It takes practice.

[HebrewMidwife]

I love couponing! Its like free money. I am saving over 60% on my bills. I designed and sell the Ultimate COupon Binder visit me on Facebook: The Coupon WIfey. THX. You are amzing the work you do. I am insoired to help religious organizations,fod pantries, give back.

[MissJska16]

WOw!!! coupons it is!!!! found a great article today on a similar topic...visit Cash Doctors, then click the resources section then articles, then check up on EXACTLEY how to budget..

[wendys120]

I double coupons every Wednesday at my local store. Even though they only double up to 5 coupons per transaction, I still manage to save a lot every week. Cheaper even than Wal Mart.

[anyname666]

Man you can see why some of these people responding to this video are starving. What a bunch of dopes. If you do not have enough money to buy food, why the heck would you not use coupons. And yes the manufactures give the stores a refund plus a bonus for using the coupon. THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE JUST TO LAZY TO CLIP COUPONS DESERVE TO STARVE..

[danieller123]

the only problem is that if everyone did this how would the stores make money? not everyone can get 200 dollars worth of groceries for 3 bucks and expect retailers to stay in business.

[nswe2002]

yeah but the coupon's pay the store for the amount saved!

[dfox1975]

You clean out the shelves on Sunday night and then there are no more items for the actual families that need them! Thanks for that.

[Marcellacml]

i'd like to see her shop with all that coupon madness when she has 7 kids in tow

[islgrls]

Wow!... Why would anyone take 7 kids to the store to coupon shop?! Too many haters on this, maybe you're all just jealous!! She is doing something wonderful for herself and her community! Some people don't have gardens so they go to the store...lol.. its not so odd!

[shanana000]

have the kids go with you and deligate the work and get done faster..along with teaching the kids how to save while shopping.

[ALMIGHTYIGZ]

i used i could

[unytcommsys]

@islgrls I want to be like her. Cheap and lovin' it! O wait I am cheap and I save a load of money with cash back cards and coupons.

[FASSY524]

I use the Chinook book.

[tubofbologna]

now stores only double up to .99

[Amandandoug]

@tubofbologna We live in Kentucky and they only double $0.49 and under now on coupons =(

[jennybobenny11]

She isn't saving THAT much money. She doesn't need sweet frozen ice (which is just money down the drain). And SHOUT for 1.79? I've gotten TOW 32.5 ounces of antibacterial Windex for $1 (they were on sale for 2 for 5 dollars, but I had a buy one get one free coupon, and I had a $1.50 off coupon). I go to a food store that lets you use coupons up to three months after their expiration date. It's much easier and you can wait for the sales longer.

[TVwriter23]

Yeah, but this one womans efforts feeds 15,000families.

[thoostorm4]

@TVwriter23 wow
