Default Extreme Couponing

This program comes on tonight on TLC at 9 PM. If I can stay awake I want to watch it.

I like to use coupons as much as the next person but what I don't understand is how these women get all the coupons they have. One lady says she spends up to 4-6 hours a day clipping and organizing her coupons to get ready for a shopping trip.

I never printed my own coupons from the Internet because of the high cost of printer ink. And with only one Sunday paper you can only get so many coupons. Are these people buying multiple papers? Do they consider the cost of obtaining all these coupons?

I still use coupons but mostly for cleaning and personal care products. Since I've been eating more non-processed foods and cooking more things from scratch I just don't seem to have the amount of coupons needed to save a substantial amount. Seems like the things coupons are for are things I don't (or can't) eat anymore. Processed foods, things with lots of HFCS and sugar just don't agree with me anymore.

Anyone else watch these programs?
