Is Extreme Couponing Still Worth It?

I was rewatching an old reality show where someone casually mentioned extreme couponing—you know, the kind where people get $500 worth of stuff for $20? That era felt so wild… and now, kind of mythical. It made me wonder: Is extreme couponing still a thing in 2025? Or did digital coupons, inflation, and store policy changes quietly kill it? I’ve been living more frugally these past few years—tracking expenses, buying secondhand, meal planning—and I’m always open to leveling up. But I haven’t heard of anyone doing serious coupon hauls in ages. Is it still possible to walk out of a store with a full cart and a nearly empty receipt? If you used to do it (or still do), I’d genuinely love to hear your experience. Was it worth the time? Is it more of a hobby or a lifestyle? And how has it changed? Let’s bring this legendary money-saving art back into the chat. #ExtremeCouponing #FrugalLiving #IsItStillWorthIt #CouponCulture #SaveMoreSpendLess #BudgetHacks #MoneySmart #OldSchoolSavings #ThriftyLife #ModernCouponing
