    Coupon Clipping Addicts
    Just saw a segment on Entertainment Tonight about people addicted to clipping coupons and stockpiling shit. It ends with this guy leaving a store with 9 carts of groceries and a pallet jack full(1000 boxes) of Total cereal. He paid about $246 at checkout after coupons for $5400 worth of stuff.

    This asshole had some coupons he had hoarded for a free toothbrush. He had 100's of coupons, so the fukface scoops up the entire display of toothbrushes and chucks it in a carriage. 1000 boxes of cereal.

    I don't know where these assholes were, but in my neck of the woods, they limit people to 4 or 12 items. These bumfuk grocery stores better wise up.

    One fukin lady has 3000 rolls of toilet paper hoarded that she accumulated for almost nothing.

    The topper.

    They show the lady with her 2 kids dumpster diving, rifling through the thrown out papers, looking for more coupons.

    WTF this show pissed me off. If I see that toothbrush burglar at my local store, I'm whipping his ass. Wonder if he has a coupon for a good civil lawyer.

            Just some fat lady with a spray on tan, letting her kids crawl in a dumpster. ANd the king coupon clown who was a dead ringer for Jared from Subway.

                  Coupons are the shit if you don't have to go out of your way to use them or find them... For example Las Vegas Advisor's and American Casino guides pay for themselves without any effort and I always carry them around when in Vegas...

                              having an 18 month old daughter im not ashamed to admit i buy 2 sunday papers each week for the coupons. but i ain't hoardin 3000 rolls of angel soft

                              and yes they track your ip addy when you print online. so you need a lot of computers to print them. and even then they might not reset them for months on end.

                              there was actually a guy who found out how to circumvent to print online coupons and had a big ass lawsuit filed against him

                                the grocery store doesnt lose out...they love it... those are manufacturers coupons that they get reimbursed for.

                                the stores that limit people arent doing it to save money, they are doing it so some customers dont miss out and get pissed at the store for not having the item

                                  have to weigh the time spent vs money saved
                                  with gas at $3/gallon it's harder to be cheap about small stuff when you spend $40 on gas...

                                      My folks clip coupons and they have more money than they could ever spend, maybe that is why.

                                          This is true. I know a lady that does this and yes she sells it all, garage sale style. Her husband built a 20x20 storage shed just to house these items, it's like a fukkin mini costco in there.

                                            We save about 2K a year on coupons of all kind. Usually I won't buy something unless I have a coupon for it.

                                              "I've been stockpiling for about three and a half years," she says. "When I look at my toilet paper the feeling it brings to me is absolute joy!"
