When your husband is playing his play station 3 on line and he tells people his hobby is ps3 and his wife’s hobby is couponing.
Andrea says
HAHAHA!!
You know you’re a couponer if…
your 2 year old tells you to get your coupon book every time you leave the house!
You brag to anyone who will listen about your great deals!!!
You have your neighbors setting aside their coupons books, since they don’t use them!!
Karri says
Ok–thought of a few more… 🙂
You know you’re a couponer when you realize that you used to actually READ the Sunday paper.
You try endlessly to get your friends and family to understand your “addiction” and are so relieved to find other couponers just like you.
You have a list of items that you just won’t buy unless they work out to be free.
Karri says
You’re embarrassed to admit to anyone the number of Sunday newspapers that are delivered to your house each week–and you slink outside early in the morning to get them so the neighbors don’t think you’ve lost your mind.
You’ve been known to post on your facebook wall, “Yippee, it’s grocery shopping day!”
You’ve found yourself standing in front of your food supply admiring it like it’s a great work of art.
Instead of asking how you’re doing, your coworkers now ask, “What great deals have you gotten lately?”
You “shop” for just the right cashier who won’t give you a hard time about your coupons and will actually admire the savings you receive.
No matter how hard you try to convince your kids that grocery shopping is fun, they just won’t buy it.
Your favorite days of the week are Wednesday and Sundays.

You know your a couponer if almost all the money in your wallet indicates Expiration Dates!
Sheri says
When you don’t have room for clothes in your closets because they are full of cereal, toilet paper and diapers.
Sela says
When your parents come to see the kids and you ask them where the coupons are from *their* paper before they can come in the house
(Yep, I have them trained!) 😉
Melissa says
When the cashier & the guy behind both comment on how much money you just saved and what a great deal you got!
Or when you have trouble falling asleep at night because you’re planning out your shopping trip in your head, which stores you’ll hit first to get the best deals before they run out, and which coupons you’ll use!
Bernadette says
You know you’re a couponer when the cashier gives you the “evil eye” and a long sigh when you hand over all of your coupons.
Jen says
You know you are a couponer when your pantry is over stocked and you just cannot stop buying the good deals.
JoAnn says
You empty your jean pockets at the end of the day and pull out a handful of coupons that you collected from your latest shopping trip.
Rebecca says
When you push your grocery cart to the side of the ile to riffle your coupon organizer looking for on particular coupon, “I know I saw a coupon for ketchup, it will be free if I find it!
When you have the cashier remove the item because your coupon was expired!! “Im not paying full price”
Jessica says
When your three year old plays store with friends and expects to get paid in coupons instead of cash!
When you husband always says, “Do you have a coupon for….” instead of “Will you buy me some….”
When your three year old holds up her plastic play food and says, “I got this for free at Soopers.” or “This was only 40 cents!”
Vicki says
Your adrenalin starts pumping when you start to look through the weekly shopping ads and coupons.
Alyssa says
You know your a couponer when you go to show friends/family cute pictures of you kids and you end up explain the multiple pictures of you victorious shopping trips ( you have to take them or no one will believe you;)
Melissa says
You know you’re a couponer if your two year old wants his own coupon organizer and always says “COUPONS, MOM!” when the paper comes.
You know you’re a couponer if you go to customer service to retrieve your 55 cents that didn’t come off at the register.
amy says
When you’re 11-year old asks if you have a coupon for gum/candy BEFORE he asks if he can get some!
Vicki B. says
LOL! I love it! That’s how my 13 and 11 year old are!
Andrea says
*When you have 15 jars of marinated artichoke hearts in your pantry that you got for FREE!!!!!
Holli says
-If on the rare instance you have to pay full price for something (or at some place like Costco) and your 7 year old yells, “Don’t forget your coupons!”
-If you are willing to drive 45 min with a screaming baby to get a great deal on games for Christmas, most of which you intend to give to charity.
-You won’t let anyone else help you clip coupons from the paper because they might cut through one and ruin a great deal (This could also go for “You know you have control issues when…)
-You stop people in the aisle at the grocery store to tell them about the great deal you just found, and you hand them a coupon to get the same deal too!
-You LOVE going to the grocery store for good deals and post office to see which freebies showed up, when those were the two places you HATED just 6 months ago.
Kristin says
You wish you could get all the coupon inserts from your neighbors in addition to in your own paper, and hubby gets some from workmates too.
Kylee says
You refer to printing coupons as printing money….and secretly wonder if the treasury dept will someday come knocking on your door 😀
Stephanie says
You know you’re a couponer when you get just as excited to see the upcoming weekly grocery ad (to see what you can get for free or really cheap) as you used to when you looked at the Sears toy catalog at Christmas time.
Lindsay says
You know you’re a couponer when dinner conversation with your husband centers on how much you saved at the store that day.
Cassie says
You know you are a couponer when you get super excited when you see your coupons from the newspaper and can’t wait to look through them!
Jennifer says
You know you’re a couponer if it takes you two hours to get ready to go to the store–with making sure you have all the coupons for all the deals.
Bonnie says
You know you’re a couponer if you feel guilty when you forget to hand the cashier a coupon and the transaction is already complete. At those times, I feel as though I’ve let my family down by not saving as much as I could have.
