Hi Everyone,

We’re on the hunt for the UK’s best Extreme Coupon style stockpile. Post pictures of your biggest and best coupon-assisted purchases and let us know how much you paid for it and how much it’s worth. See below for an example.

Happy posting!

    There's a thread at the top of this section of the forum with links to printable coupons and another for discussing coupons and their use to help you out

    MSE Zorica - is this not the same unnecessary thread that MSE Andrea has created. The genuine people who use coupons correctly to purchase items they need or want, will not post stash photos on here. No one in their right mind will want to admit to exploiting a coupon, and potentially jeopardising coupon use in the future.

    Either you guys need to turn the aircon up as too much heat has gone to your heads at MSE Towers, or you have too much time on your hands. Surely if you spent time reading the threads you are supposedly in charge of you would see that there are already threads for coupons, that coupons are becoming lesser and lesser, and that stores are clamping down enough on coupon use, without you guys making it harder :(
    hoping for a very MSE Ts glitching 2012!

    Yay more encouragement of selfishness, greed, buying loads of things you don't want/need and hoarding.

  • I make it a policy to go through life not upsetting people but I'm breaking it:

    the idea behind this thread smacks of sensationalist, tabloid journalism.

    Anyone who has ever legitimately used a coupon knows how they are regarded by the supermarkets in this country and anyone who even glances at the coupon boards for more than two seconds know how it is virtually impossible to obtain one coupon let alone the fifty or so required by the "bargain hunter" in the picture at the top of the thread! Extreme couponing in this way simply does not exist in this country, yes there are glitches that might yield spectacular hauls for some people but they do not use handfuls of coupons at the checkouts!

    Unpopular thread in the making!

    OMG I saw Andreas other thread but this take the biscuit! You want pictures of peoples stashes! Do you want to know what you'll get on here? You'll get proper couponers saying its the worst idea ever and then you get trolls later on tonight and the whole thread will erupt! I agree I think you are all overheating at MSE towers!

    Actually thinking about it are you trying to compete with a few other well known FB groups that regularly post up pictures of stashes?
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    Again as i said on the other thread created of this type but in less words and more to the point threads like this are Stupid the encourage greed and coupon abuse.

    I will not be contributing here either, Awful decision made i may just start calling MSE, 10 ways 2.0
  • Andrea - encouraging people to show stockpiles of goods, bought from couponing is such a bad idea. Supermarkets and manufacturers do not want this sort of thing and will close every loophole as quickly as they possibly can.

    The coupons available are not meant for extreme couponers, they are meant for very average normal shoppers who are happy to get £2 or £3 off their £120 weekly shop.

    Please think again about this thread, it is probably the quickest way to get couponing loopholes closed down.
