A Full Cup has written a great article called: "Extreme Couponing - What They Don't Show or Tell You"
I can't say too much about the show because I haven't had the opportunity to watch it, but what it seems to me, is that it's great as a motivator to show people that great deals are out there and you can save a lot of money by utilizing coupons, however, it is a reality show and like we know from all reality shows there's only so much they're showing you and they tend to find the most extreme of the extreme people out there. You can't expect to go to the grocery store and buy $2,000 worth of groceries for $100, it's just not realistic, but you can expect to save between 10% and 50% off your normal grocery bill on a regular basis if you learn how to play the game... and the game can actually be kind of fun.
