Regrettably, her strategy doesn't really work if you buy mostly fresh produce.

Of course, if you spent the time you use on coupon for work, you could just make more money and not have to go through fliers, clip coupons, keep a coupon file, etc.

Isn't this sort of thing illegal in a lot of places? Or at least most stores won't let you combine five coupons for one thing that is already on sale.

If you combine a manufacturer's coupon with a store sale it doesn't matter to the store since they are getting the rebates in bulk from the manufacturer. No skin off their back.

You can have ONE manufacturer's coupon and ONE store coupon for one item, regardless of whether or not its on sale(although stores don't generally issue coupons for stuff that's going to be on sale soon). You can have these two for every single item, but not more than that if you're buying one.

As someone who's cashiered, I don't mind these ladies as long as they goddamn pay attention to what the coupon actually says it applies to. I can't tell you how many times they didn't want something once they found out their coupon was expired, or didn't read that the coupon stipulates you must buy two and have to go back and get another one or some crap.

How much of that is actually useful daily food? Or is she on a Power Ade, Coors, Ritz diet?

If it's good enough for Zombie Shari Lewis, it's good enough for anyone.

yeah...Every time I see one of these stories, the shopper seems to walk out with hundreds of dollars' worth of crap.

She's right about rebates. I've missed several mail in rebates and now I feel bad about it.

I think she's turned aging Jewish ladies into a science.

Some of that stuff is easy to do while other times its like a second job

This lady's family must be furious that the local news has validated her horrible obsession.

This of course, assuming cats can be furious. Pay-oh!

I like how they didn't show the cashier. I'm sure she had a look of barely suppressed rage. This woman probably does this every week to this poor store

WHO WANTS DESSERT - 2010-07-29

As someone who worked at a grocery store for 4 years, people like this are less "has shopping down to a science" and more "will browbeat the cashier into accepting bullshit coupons for fear of getting the manager mad for holding up the line"

Now that makes more sense.

I'm always amazed that these people can "Save 0", I can usually save roughly 25% of my gorcery bill, but I can never make it practically free.

Of course, I also buy things that I NEED instead of junk food that might be on special.
