I agree! I was at my parents the other day and flicked through and stumbled across this. Was a back to back episode, thank god! I am.....ADDICTED!!!! It's like a crazy extreme sport. Seriously wish we could do that here in Australia!!!! Some of the ladies get all their groceries for FREE! Although not sure what that one lady would do with 93 bags of croutons lol

Love it. Cant wait for tonight's!! Its unbelievable at the amount of money they save although how you could possibly eat 100 boxes of cereal before the used by date I have no idea. Wish we had coupons here in Aus. I think I would have a tonne of fun. And the stuff they make money on.. So therefore have more to spend. This post has been edited by kriattica: 05/03/2012, 04:16 PM

OMG I'm so glad I found this thread - my mum actually put me on to this show a week or two ago and I am hooked !! I agree - it is totally like an extreme sport Imagine the fridge / freezer space these people must have also My favourite is the lady who bought cat food - but doesn't have a cat. And the lady who had the can storage system that rolled them back and forth in order to keep them in date order so nothing expires. I guess the money they save on groceries affords them the elaborate storage systems !

Has anyone else noticed that all the 'savings' are for sugary junk food/drinks or cleaning/bath products ? I find 100's of free vitamin water & packets of ramen noodles very very disturbing. I am however, very very jealous of all the free 'tide' laundry liquid. I heart tide. 93 bags of croutons will make a sh*te load of caesar salad !

I saw one episode a while back, and the guy gave pretty much all of it away to charity. I think they must give most of it away.
