  yes!! in fact i'm recording it to show h when he gets home... but i want to ask you all now... what's the difference between these people and the ones on hoarders?

  i mean, she calls it a "stockpile" but it's creeping into the whole house. and clearly, i watch too much reality tv.

  Yeah, I can't figure it out either. I did however get deodorant at target for 99 cents by combining 2 coupons this week. The show inspired me. Lol

  The problem with that is the end up buying stuff they'd never normally use. And when it's grocery couponing it's always boxed prepackaged items which aren't healthy.

  I usually have at least $10 in coupons a week but I don't look at that type of couponing in awe, I think it's a mental issue.

  Haha I'm recording to show my husband as well. It blows my mind. I get how you can save money with coupons but for free?? It seems to be an illness I mean the woman spends all day looking for coupons. If I could do all that and build a stockpile I would so give it away. I don't get why one needs 30 years supply of toilet paper.

  I get buying a buttload of nonperishable items, but why would you stock up on things that expire.  When are they going to go through all of that salad dressing.  Surely not before it goes bad.

  I coupon but not to this extreme.  I buy Pampers jumbp pack reg 8.99 at Target, use a $3 Target coupon and a $2 manu coupon and happily pay $3.99.
  
  From what I've seen, its more of an addiction for these people.

  LOL I currently have a year supply of Electrosol dishwasher tablets. About $5 total.

  What these people don't talk about is where they are getting the coupons. They are buying them off of certain sites. They don't put that cost back into it when saying how much they spent. It might only be $10 per item but it still adds up.

  I normally have a 6 month supply of shampoo, deodorant, paper towel, soup, soap, chicken breasts, toothpaste etc. But not 40 years!
