I decided to try my hand at my own little extreme couponing video in Bi-Lo. Really this is more educational than the TLC versions ever will be, as I tried to break down fuelperks, stacking coupons, doubling, special promotions and a lot more. If you don’t have a Bi-Lo there are still many concepts that […]
As frugal-minded shoppers, we are always on the hunt to find the best prices without too much work. I know a lot of you have found that Aldi has low prices and good deals on certain items. Since they don’t carry name brands or accept any coupons, I thought it might be a good idea […]
Couponing is fun and all, but many times the things that you really need you never have a coupon for. The biggest of those items can be meat and produce.

There is no need to have a warehouse club membership if you know how to fully shop using the reward systems that each drugstore has. Of the three main drugstores, Walgreens is normally deemed the most confusing. […]
Okay, so far we have the basics understood and you’ve got your coupons, now lets put it together. I need to use these coupons and sales to get everything my family needs, not just have some crazy amount of toothpaste and starve because we still can’t afford food. To truly start to feel like it […]
So what started as a one time deal is now an Extreme Couponing series… I voiced my concerns and thoughts after the last episode and they haven’t changed. So this time I just want to touch on what the reality of extreme couponing is, based on what we saw tonight. (I did actually watch tonight’s […]
