Don't accept Extreme Couponing as the gospel

Next time you're watching Extreme Couponing, do so with a grain of salt. It seems there's a darker side of couponing... and I'm not talking solely about the hoarding and obsessive nature of it all.

You might learn a thing or two while watching, but always remember that this is a reality show designed to entertain rather than educate.

With such big money at stake, the minority of couponers out there who take it to the extreme can't be blamed for trying to go for the ultimate thrill: a FREE big ticket grocery shop.  But for the average couponer, this interest isn't about a buzz... it's about making changes to their bottom lines which enable them a more comfortable lifestyle.
