Introducing: A Realistic Look at Couponing! (My Reponse to TLC’s Extreme Couponing)

Ever since TLC’s Extreme Couponing Special aired, I’ve been working behind the scenes to respond with my own series.  However instead of TLC, I’m going to be sharing a little RLC with you all: A Realistic Look at Couponing.

We’ll be covering such topics as:

A Realistic Look at:

  • how many hours each week you should spend on couponing.
  • the percentage you can hope to  save on a typical shopping trip.
  • how many coupons you need. (And is it really necessary to dig through dumpsters to find them?!)
  • a typical stockpile.
  • when it’s time to put down the coupons and give yourself a break!

…and lots more!  I am excited about this series because I want you all to know that you are Super Stars even if you don’t save 99.9% on your grocery shopping trip!  (Who does?!)

So come on back next Monday for my next installment!

    Thanks, guys. I’m excited about the series too. Hopefully it will give us all a chance to breathe a big sigh of relief.

    Thank you so very much for doing this! After that episode aired, my phone lit up like a Christmas tree with friends and family asking if I was that crazy. lol I think a lot of people would love this; I will be sure to pass your blog along to a few of my friends that I think will really benefit from this series! Thank you again!

    Can’t wait to see. So excited because I think the TLC show is completely LOONY TUNES.

      Hmmm…I feel inspired to start a new series. A LOONY TUNES look at Couponing. Oh wait…TLC already did that. 🙂

    Awesome! Just because we coupon doesn’t mean we are crazy! Well…mostly not crazy.
