Are the Money-Saving Strategies on 'Extreme Couponing' Bogus?
A non-profit organization called the Coupon Information Center (CIC) , which says it has been around since 1986 and is “dedicated to fighting coupon misredemption and fraud,” is extremely disappointed in “Extreme Couponing.” Last May, the CIC announced its hope that TLC would “address potentially illegal acts that appear to have been portrayed on the show,” which “appears to portray coupons being used in violation of the terms and conditions printed on the coupons.”
Last week, the CIC confirmed that, indeed, one of the couponers featured on the show had used counterfeit coupons. In an episode that aired in October, a 16-year-old boy from California named Joel used nearly three dozen coupons at a supermarket to get 408 rolls of Quilted Northern toilet paper entirely for free. Turns out the coupons were fakes, and the kid’s mom wound up repaying the store for all that toilet paper.
