Well Newbie to the site however I have been using coupons all my life........started when I was little and helped my mom as we did the grocery shopping she actually has a huge collection of all those really old coupons some with no barcode and some are 5 cents and 7 cents and 12 cents way too funny.....Wanted to ask all here what are you views on the show Extreme Couponing ..for me I think it is totally unfair and stinks and it is not real......no way could one person who 100 of the same coupon all in one purchase ....Also where does someone get so many of one free item coupon......I personally think it is all fake and illegial what they are doing and making it bad for us whom try to save for their families.....let me know 1|1|Hi! Welcome to our very friendly site! I agree with you, that excessive use of coupons is terrible and has hurt many|lv2qpon|jcummins1@rochester.rr.com|15:56:09|03/17/2013|

of us. Some people are going so far as to steal those coupons sections out of the Sunday papers. Today from one of the two papers that was purchased at the drug store, the coupon section was missing. This is not the first time this has happened. I don't know if it was done in the store or when the papers were left outside early this morning. I am calling the paper to report it. 2|2|I know what you mean........there are times I go to my local dunkin donuts and all the inserts are all gone......Most people go in there and eat or just have coffee and they take the paper to read......but they do not pay for it and then they take the inserts out........Also with tear pads sometimes I have seen people pull the whole pad........however with the show extreme couponing I feel it has ruined it for so many honest people......I would love to know where they get 100 of the same free coupon......Also that they can use 100 of the same coupon in one transaction that would never happen here......but in the end I would still always use coupons and I love coupons|dawntom305|jets030889@aol.com|22:05:07|03/17/2013|

100 of anything all at once, that there might not be anything left for me to buy. Recently there was a great coupon for Cheer in the paper and when I buy it at a certain store near my home, there wasn't any left. The store doesn't stock hundreds of this item, but someone comes in and takes all that is on the shelf. I have extra coupons but I don't buy it all at once, only one or two at a time. Rite Aid has it on sale this week and it will probably be all gone, so I have to get rain checks and hopefully the coupons won't expire when the Cheer is re-stocked. I have someone shop for me, so this is frustrating. I only get out occasionally. 5|1|They limit coupons here|COVE|mcdonna3@gmail.com|16:53:06|03/19/2013|

We can only use 4 of the same coupon on the same item, which makes if fair. I agree that when people use too many coupons that they do tend to clear the shelves pretty fast. I cannot tell you how many times I go to CVS or Walgreens (because they don't have the shelf space) and the product is gone off the shelf.

I'm glad the other stores around here limit it to 4 coupons. I can take 4 and if I need more I can come back another time or visit another one of their stores. Makes it a lot more fair.

6|2|Barb do they take 100 of the same coupon.....and just take the face value off or are you saying they will take 100 of the same coupon and double it???..Here we were limited to 4 coupons per transaction.However there are some cashiers who will let you add a few more . However those are mostly the younger chasiers.....If I personally want to purchase more in one transaction I simply just go to the self check out and this way I can do as many as I like however even then the most I would do in one single transaction would be about 15......I get nervous I feel like the camera's are watching me.......Your very lucky.......I do miss the triples those 75 cents coupons got me so many free items.....|dawntom305|jets030889@aol.com|21:56:29|03/19/2013|

I personally would ask the store to special order the item. I even doubt our stores would have 100 of most of the items on their shelves.
I just don't think it's fair for one person to take the entire shelf leaving the following customers with nothing.
That's exactly why they limit here.
Bottom line is, if your stores allow no limits, it's really up to you to make that decision. No one can tell anyone else what to do, I just know what I would do and not do. 13|2|My stores have been ordering for like 8 years. Hence, the not clearing of shelves Although as things are changing due to the stupid show....there hasn't been much to buy 100 of!!!

I kind of thought you'd be one who was smart enough to order, especially if you're getting that many at one time. I really admire people who know how to shop, coupon, refund, etc. You Go Girl!

long as its on the correct product..........if i have coupons ready to expire and the store only has a few of what i need

he will order them......and let me go ahead and use my cps and pay for them..so they dont expire on me......and i can pick up when they

come in 18|3|So upset kinda anyway......we have a store chain here called King Kullen actually they have been in business a really long time.....Around here they are the only store that will take a one dollar coupon and double it to 2.00....However there long standing policy on the use of the 1.00 coupons is 2 per item...which to me stinks because sometimes when you can get a item for free I would love to get more then 2....Anyway long story short I normally only go there for per items or any items with a dollar coupon I know I will get for free......However today I have 16 sets of 1.00 coupons to get 8 different items 2 each for free of course tax included....Anyway I starting packing my items and then the cashier tells me okay I doubled 5 the rest will be at face value....I was like what ...what do you mean she then turns to me and says oh new rules we will only double five 1.00 coupons???...Needless to say I retured 11 items and only got 5.........they literally have the worst coupon policy........thanks for the vent feel better now.....Dawn|dawntom305|jets030889@aol.com|00:26:24|03/27/2013|
