Got me. Of course the people on the show go out of their way
to get coupons. One woman dumpster dives, people write away
for coupons, another woman somehow gets her newspaper to give
her all the spare coupon inserts they usually toss. Still, I get two
papers and that means I get 2 coupons on any given product.
Hardly stacks of them.
I will never be the people who get $600 grocery bills reduced to
5 bucks. I get excited if bleach is on sale and I have a coupon so
I get 3 for $3 or something. Heh. Amateur.
