This is something people all over the world do. It's not always easy to do. I have watched a show called "Extreme Couponing" and it shows how people buy a ton of different flyers and cut out all the coupons that they can find, so that it will make there grocery shopping less expensive. Sometimes people even end up paying nothing for all of their groceries because of the amounts of coupons they have. A lot of people will use couponing forums like AFullCup to post about deals they find and to look and see what other deals people have posted. There are almost a million members on AFC that are looking for deals, as well as sharing their deals. The information and deals that they find the couponers will use to plan there grocery shopping trip. Once they find all these deals from others that have shared them; they stock up on coupons needed for their groceries and try to get the lowest price possible. Extreme Couponing is not for everyone, but for the people that do it, they love it and it really is useful to do if you need to save money. While watching this show about it, I realized that most of the people that do are people that don't have a lot of money. They do it to save hundreds of dollars a year on groceries and use their money on bills and things of that sort. This website I posted below shows some tips on how to start extreme couponing. If you do want to start it shows the exact ways in which to find coupons; and has a countless number of deals. It would be good to start off and join the AFC, that will show you all the coupons you can print out and start from that point. Then later once you get the hang of it, you can proceed with it.
How To Start Extreme Couponing
Lindsey,
ReplyDeleteI have also seen extreme couponing. I find it interesting that they can buy so much in bulk and save so much money. By taking a few minutes to cut the coupons, you are in turn saving a ton of money. You can a large supply of a certain product because many coupons require you to buy more than one of the same thing in order to get the discount or sale. Couponing is a positive thing because you are saving money and it makes you feel good about yourself. My mom is a huge couponer and she saves a couple hundred dollars a month just by cutting coupons. Although it takes a lot of time in the end I believe it is worth it because you can save so much money.
