Think I posted it before, but saw another episode, still think the end result is kinda cool IF YOU HAVE THE SPACE TO STORE EVERYTHING!

Guys walks in with the FREE Deodarant coupons and gets 200 of them, then the .99 cents off liquid soap, store doubles it, so he pays .01 per soap and gets 100 of them!

My only question is where do people live that they double the value of the coupons??? Pretty sure Jewel, Dominicks and Whole Foods not giving me the double value?

The one woman spent 6 hours in preparation for going shopping and 2 hours shopping. I think the woman was a nurse. Calculate those hours into OT she could be working and suddenly it's not such a great deal to pick up 70 bottles of mustard.

KRAMER: Hey, Jerry! Listen, I need you to come downstairs, help me get my

stuff outta the car.

JERRY: What stuff?

KRAMER: I just came from the price club. I'm loaded up, baby.

JERRY: All right. What are you, outta your mind? Look at this. What did you

buy here? You will never be able to finish all this stuff.

KRAMER: Course I will. These are staples.

JERRY: A four-pound can of black olives? That's a staple?

KRAMER: Lindsay olives, Jerry.

JERRY: A forty-eight pack of Eggo waffles? A gallon of barbecue sauce? Ten

pounds of cocktail meatballs?

KRAMER: $17.50. You can't beat that.

JERRY: Look...look at this can of tuna!

KRAMER: Yeah. Star Kist, Jerry. Most tuna don't make their cut.

JERRY: This isn't for a person. This is for Biosphere 3.

That's not realistic to think you could shop like that every time. If anything the people on the show are ruining it for the regular couponers. Once the stores and manufacturers figure out a way to stop people from getting the deals, a lot of the deals will be over.
