Wow. Just wow. I only make fun of you because of jealousy, you sour milk smelling, hoarder. I need to get my wife to start doing this. I will even tolerate her smelling like sour milk.

So. How long before regulations are put in place to stop this? If enough people start doing this, its only a matter of time before companies shut this down. Seems to happen with anything that starts going main stream.

There's actually been a lot of push back on this. Each company makes their own rules, and a lot of them have started changing up the rules to prevent big things like this. However, it's been more because of customers upset, rather than a loss of profit (which is non-existent since the manufacturer refunds the face value plus .08). Some rule changes that have changed just since I've started doing this is Rite Aid and Target have stopped letting you use a Buy One Get One Free coupon on existing BOGO sales, that let you get both of them free without buying anything, some stores have limited the amount of coupons that will double, or number of coupons used per transaction, not letting you break up purchases without making you physically leave the store first. Just little things.

The manager of the Rite Aid that I raid, hates me. It's more because he keeps the store half stocked, so when I roll through, it reveals how shitty an inventory he keeps. He's tried to limit what I do, but his district manager basically said if he comes down on people like me, he'll be looking for a new job. I try to do things that make things easier on the store, like going late at night, only tieing up one line, and letting customers ahead of you. I could be a douche and price match all my items (which I could do, but feel it's double dipping, and since I don't pay shit anyway, might as well make the company as much money as possible), or do my shopping during 5 o'clock rushes. And he's tempted me over some of the shit he's started to try to do to me.

A lot of the stores around me have put a limit of 3 coupons max per item, per address.

Wow that sucks. Rite Aid, by far has the best coupon policy. Although, Walmart has pretty good ones also (you can use up to 40 coupons without a manager approval, and they don't have a like item limit on coupons or store items).

And as far as your last question, just really good coupons and high value coupons, and using the overage to buy other stuff. Up Rewards void if you go under the sales tax. So I only use them on non tax items like diapers and wipes (that I sell to friends).

Hell yeah I do lol. To anyone that has kids, if I said I'll sell you a large box of diapers and 2 jumbo packs of Wipes for $20, they're all over it. It's a great deal to them, and I make money on it.

Every time I see the deals you pull I get motivated to try it.
Then I start looking, and find coupons for 55 cents off, my head starts spinning and I give up. Confusedad:

There are a bunch of those. But there are $2 and $10 coupons out there. That's what I use. But I still use a LOT of those small $.55 coupons too. At most supermarkets, they double.

This is not extreme coupon stuff, but still an easy way to score free shit.

I haven't done it in awhile, but I used to write letters to companies, expressing my love for the product, asking if they had new stuff coming out, and even just asking for nutritional information.

Every time they sent a box full of the product, including any new stuff they were about to put out. My biggest score was 25 pounds of beef jerky from whatever company had slim jim at the time.

This was back before all the shit had a website, and a facebook though. All hand written letters using a stamp and the usps.
