I have a family of 6; I only bought items regularly use, that either were on special in the store and/or I had a coupon for it. I saved $70 or 36% on my bill. It paid for a 6 week gymnastics session for one of my kids. Well worth it; I' ve bought in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5378956289166369637.post-4582102566745516442010-12-31T13:27:08.761-05:002010-12-31T13:27:08.761-05:00I don't think the show was particularly negat...I don't think the show was particularly negative. It really outlined 4 seperate cases. It appeared they had one extreme coupon/hoarder; one family that works by necesity and doesn' seem to go too overboard; one interesting lady prostelyzing the benefits of couponing; and one couple using his talents to donate much of his good deal to the food closets.

I don't think that it was entirely negative, but I do think they used the most extreme cases (which did make for good TV!). I just would hate for someone to miss out on saving a ton of money because they thought it was going to be too time/labor intensive, or BrooklynBargainistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00753634349565465153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5378956289166369637.post-54973227481869841222010-12-30T13:38:24.549-05:002010-12-30T13:38:24.549-05:00I don't think that it was particularly negativ...I don't think that it was particularly negative. They had to punch it up a bit. It is show business afterall. If all the people that TLC profiled were sensible then it wouldn't be "extreme" enough.I thought the show was informative. I am going to encourage my wife to employ some of this coupon-ing stuff. I also liked your article because it cleared up some of the aspects, which Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
