Before I started to coupon I mostly bought generic brands but now I find that I can buy name brands for a lot less that the generic . It also does not take too long to shop you have to realize that the people on the show do not shop that way all the time its more for the show . I am on a forum that is run by the man that did the donations for the troops and he said that he does not have the time to shop like that every day. It takes me about 4 hrs on Sunday to do my shopping but I am going to 4 to 5 stores . I shop 3 days out of the week . It is fun and have saved a lot of money and I love to save money. I also have been donating to my moms church and to local womens shelters. I love to be able to give back more that anything. |
That's awesome that you have the patients to do it
I could never ever grocery shop 3 days out of the week though, I can't even stand going once a week
so if that's what it takes, I'm out LOL. I do use coupons when I come across them though and look for sales while I'm shopping and then stock up a little bit on things we use alot when I see a really good deal
I can't imagine though, the one lady on there said she spends 30 hrs. a week doing it
