01:58these identical twins share more than dna for more than a decade they've been combining their
02:04couponing skills to double their savings and build a massive home stockpile
02:08we don't look at it for pasta sauce we look at this as five dollars three dollars three dollars money in the bank
02:16though kept entirely in ty's basement the stockpile is the sister's share collection
02:22there are nearly two dozen deodorants 40 cans of soup and 52 bottles of body wash but the item the
02:28twins stock up on most diapers nearly 4 000 diapers in all enough to last a baby nearly a year and a half
02:37who has the most diapers in the stockpile i do and who doesn't have children i don't one day i will and
02:42i'll be prepared taryn stockpiles for her future family's necessities something the twins didn't always
02:49have growing up in a family of five children our parents had to learn how to stretch their dollar
02:54every sunday evening our mother will get us together and we will cut coupons so we were taught at a very
03:01very early age how to coupon this was our mother's coupon box and she still has coupons in here oh my
03:09goodness we need to go through these i don't even think they even still sell this product mom taught them
03:15to save but the twins have made it their mission to absolutely never pay retail so they spend more
03:20than 20 hours each week matching sales posted to online coupon databases with their sorted collection
03:26of newspaper inserts we keep our circulars in by date punch in the coupon that we're looking for
03:34up comes the date we can pull it right out cut it and we're done today the twins are cutting coupons
03:41for a purchase that will retail for nearly four hundred dollars but they have just sixty dollars
03:46to pay for it and the divas plan to stretch that small budget even further by shopping on the optimal
03:52day for discounts today is our birthday it's your birthday and it's your birthday too that's right
03:59while ordinary coupons are made available every week many stores offer exclusive birthday rewards
04:04through customer loyalty programs or printed home coupons and the twins take advantage of these offers
04:09every year we look forward to this date every single year because we do get a lot of free goodies
04:15don't you agree free is fun free is amazing with more than a dozen birthday bargains on their list
04:22the divas start their savings at a local clothing store we are here to get our free jewelry
04:27the necklace the bracelets and the earrings three pieces of jewelry for free so thank you thank you
04:34next spot to save a local burger restaurant for lunch where the meal is on the house
04:41let's try this outfit
04:45no bill today huh yes that's how double saving divas love to do it
04:50with ten dollars worth of jewelry and twenty dollars worth of lunch all free
04:54the sisters going for birthday dessert we're here to get our free ice cream
05:00here you guys go we'd love to see zero on our receipt the twins have redeemed nearly 40
05:06of birthday coupons and spent just six of their 60 budget tipping but they plan the biggest savings
05:12at the supermarket where they will need couponing teamwork to stick to their day's budget all right yeah you
05:18ready to do this i'm ready so i have a great coupon for these we have a coupon we're partners in this
05:27thing will a bargain split the double saving diva twins i hope we have some medication on here because
05:32you're really starting to give me a headache
05:41chicago's identical twin couponers ty and taryn perry have taken advantage of free birthday offers all
05:46across the city and now they're ready to shop with a list of more than 100 items to purchase
05:51for their shared stockpile our goal for today is to stay under sixty dollars for the entire day
05:59celebrating our birthday we have about 54 left for our budget today the twins start by stocking up on
06:06a deal that drops expensive antacid to just pennies the 15 will cost us if we did not have a manufacturer's
06:12coupon definitely over 80 bucks we are paying around seven dollars and 50 cents about 49 cents per
06:18bottle even if you don't have heartburn who would pass that up next the divas hit the travel section
06:25a specialty area where small sizes can offer some of the biggest savings oh wait a minute i love this
06:32section of the store if the manufacturer's coupon does not restrict sizes each coupon's discount reduces
06:38a larger portion of the product's cost a lot of the manufacturer coupons do not say exclude trial
06:44size items so that's what we're going to save the most bang for our buck baby wipes for 39 cents
06:49toothpaste this would be 29 cents can't beat that ty and taryn continue to shop in unison until they
06:56differ on a deal in the meat department the pork chops right now this store currently has a special 10
07:02for 10 so we're getting them for one dollar she wants to get 20 pork chops but the plan was to get
07:0910 pork chops we still should do the 20. i say no that was not the plan the plan is to do 10. but when
07:15you're getting this great of a deal you would pass it up we're getting it no we're not i hope we have
07:20some medication on here because you're really starting to give me a headache tyron reluctantly agrees
07:26so the divas head to the butcher for just the 10 pork chops already on their list we're here to pick
07:30up our pork chops got it right here five each five in each perfect though they've tracked every
07:38purchase down the aisles the twins will need both sets of eyes watching every detail during checkout
07:44hi how are you great great how are you good we're definitely over protective we want to make sure
07:52that the price is coming up correctly that we are saving every penny
07:56okay wait it came up 375 these are on sale for two for seven we need to do a price check on that please
08:06both twins are focused at the register but an unexpected extra coupon shakes their shared strategy
08:13just got an extra coupon so i need to run to go pick up another and our bagger
08:17had given us a coupon for the floss wait wait no just wait for me because i need to
08:23take a look at the screen too i can do the screen sam you missed the other price i won't miss this
08:30just take your time go ahead hurry hurry as taryn runs back to find more floss time must make doubly
08:36sure not to let even a single coupon slide by i think we took them all well with the floss we cleared the
08:44store out we took them all we wiped the store clean we had a coupon for one more and the store is out of it
08:50because of us after every item has been scanned the register displays the total bill at nearly four
08:56hundred dollars more than six times the amount ty and taryn have in their budget our retail cost right
09:03now is 385.04 our goal for today was 60 we just spent six dollars on tip so far so right now we have 54
09:12more dollars to spend the divas begin their discounts using a stored loyalty card for immediate savings so we
09:19saved about 60 60 70 so far just for using our store's curve we love that we have these coupons as
09:27well too okay
09:36after exhausting 80 coupons the twins are still well over budget the rest of their savings will come from
09:42redeeming two gift cards they received for using the store's in-house pharmacy
09:50we did it wow our retail value was 385.04 and now we brought it down to 13.96 it was like a grand finale of this
10:01great birthday it was couldn't get any better
10:09ty and taryn's hall includes 10 pork chops 24 bottles of vitamins and medicines and three jumbo
10:14packs with 73 individual diapers the combined retail value of their entire day's meals and purchases
10:21totals 422.20 with coupons the twins pay just 19.96 cents which includes six dollars in tips which is
10:29still a 95 percent savings there is no other way that we would spend our birthday no other way we
10:36stuck to our plan even when i wanted to sway a little bit she wanted 24 chops she wheeled me in and
10:41i'm glad she did two heads are better than one you did great you did great too sis happy birthday
10:50the most extreme extreme couponer is back with an even bigger stash this is the newest addition to my
10:57stockpile this is my toothpaste room i have a thousand tubes of toothpaste here
11:08okay so this is my toothpaste room i have a thousand tubes of toothpaste here it was all free to
11:13me more than 300 billion coupons circulate nationwide every year each one averaging more
11:19than a dollar in retail savings but to extreme couponers like nathan angles that's just the start
11:25of discounts so deep that product prices are reduced to nothing i'm nathan and they call me mr coupon
11:32i'm not your grandma who uses coupons and clips one i clip 20. the last time i was on extreme couponing
11:38that was the biggest haul i'd ever done 1100 boxes of cereal the retail value is over four thousand
11:43dollars and we paid just under 150. i'm like a marksman i'm trying to target what i'm buying and i
11:51buy a lot of it instead of a hunter who's hunting a deer i'm hunting deodorant so let's get five of
11:56these ones this kentucky couponer enjoys more than just the thrill of the bargain hunt nathan prides
12:05himself on his massive stockpile close to 10 000 products from every aisle of the grocery store
12:10people's reactions to my stockpile
12:12in the last five months alone nathan's reeled in more than eight thousand dollars worth of new
12:20products at more than 85 off the retail cost these are mixes they are lasted for two years these were
12:26free these were free these were free these were free it's almost like an insurance policy you don't
12:30get paid if you lose your job and your family still has to eat so this is what a stockpile is for
12:36nathan's garage is filled wall to wall with products including 40 bottles of vitamins 300 cans of
12:42soups and pastas and 700 bottles of body wash enough to keep him clean for more than 21 000
12:48showers but his latest purchase is so substantial that the dedicated stockpile garage couldn't contain
12:54it this is the newest edition this is my wall of toothpaste
13:01one thousand tubes of toothpaste that stretch four feet wide stack five feet tall and weigh 400 pounds
13:08and nathan's cost only sales tax i couldn't spend fifteen hundred dollars on toothpaste but i can
13:14drive the cost so low that i won't have to spend money on it four years of extreme couponing have
13:19brought nathan's family financial stability and in 2010 even allowed him to donate fifty thousand
13:25dollars worth of products to charity but today he's shopping with a brand new mission of generosity
13:31the stakes are really high today because i'm not only shopping for myself but i'm shopping to
13:34give stuff to our troops in afghanistan and iraq i grew up as a military brat and so i really want
13:38to get back to our military i want to try to get as much as we possibly can for them but not bust our
13:43budget doing it with just a 50 dollar budget for both his family on the home front and 1 000 care
13:50packages for the troops abroad nathan devotes all 15 hours of his weekly prep to creating a flawless plan
13:57and it begins with his meticulously organized bins of coupon inserts they save them right here in
14:02categories by date and type i mean having a great system is absolutely essential after matching his
14:09coupons to the weekly sales he tracks on the internet nathan then builds his master list list
14:14creation is all about being prepared i know where everything is so i usually organize my list by aisle
14:19if you're not prepared you won't do well with more than 300 coupons in hand nathan heads to the
14:25supermarket but to help his mission stay on budget he brings in the coupon veteran who taught him how to save
14:31his mother i'm mama coupon aka sonia you got your list coupons yep i started couponing 30 years ago
14:41this is very embarrassing the first item on nathan's list is flavored water which is on sale for a dollar
14:48with a 50 cent coupon that the store doubles all 40 bottles are completely free i'm gonna get 40 of these
14:55then nathan hits the canned goods aisle to cash in on a pasta deal we're gonna get 45 cans of ravioli
15:05this right now is normally 99 cents with a save three now save three later you're gonna save three
15:10dollars now if you buy 10 which is 30 cents each so that's gonna drop to 69 cents you're gonna save
15:14three dollars later in a coupon at the register which essentially drops this to 39 cents i have a coupon that
15:20drops it even further so this is gonna be dirt cheap nathan is phenomenal with math don't be shy about
15:27that two carts are already full but nathan still must find more items to fill the thousand care
15:36packages he wants to send to the troops so the big size is 294 the little size is 98 cents okay so most
15:43some people just grab this big size and like oh this is great the little size is only two ounces smaller
15:48and a third the price the value size is not always a value pay attention with a 50 cent manufacturer's
15:54coupon that the supermarket will double nathan is getting 20 tubes of toothpaste absolutely free
16:01i got one
16:04three carts now full containing more than 450 items nathan is ready to check out
16:12my heart's beating faster than normal for the first time this master couponers numbers don't add up
16:18i didn't have any more coupons to give her
16:28at this kentucky supermarket extreme couponer nathan engels is checking out an enormous haul with more
16:34than 450 items for both his family stockpile and a donation of 1 000 care packages to soldiers overseas
16:41how are you doing today pretty good you get all kinds of goodies i have lots and lots of goodies
16:48nathan's purchase is too large for the register to handle in a single sale wow that's a lot of tooth
16:53things yeah i know so he must split his order into two separate transactions but watch that every scan
16:59fits within his firm budget we're about 700 to 800 but i have 50 with me that's our grocery budget 50
17:05just trying to make sure i have everything i don't want to miss anything
17:14it would say my heart's beating faster than normal
17:18your total before coupons is 396.26
17:22go ahead and start getting my coupons ready we're gonna bring it down to almost nothing
17:27so i have 20 of these
17:31it's going down it is
17:39that's it
17:40five dollars and 99 cents today for her
17:49you're a winner i started out about 396 dollars and i went down to 5.99 so there you go nathan's
17:5650 budget easily covers his first transaction but there are more than 250 items left to scan
18:04so round two here we go
18:10you really want to be on your game with the register paying attention to the register to how
18:15many items you have that's super important
18:22your grand total for this order is 486.10 wow now how low do you want to get it today
18:30i want it to be under 50. i'm hoping so we will see that's a challenge i do let's go ahead and type
18:36nathan's store savings card quickly reduces the second transactions total by nearly 100
18:41but now it's up to his coupons to bring the bill within his 50 budget
18:46i should have 15 of those there's three of those
18:52i don't know if i'm going to get under 50. please
18:54your grand total is 62.25
19:05i was a little disappointed to myself you know i didn't get it below 50 and i have to stick it on
19:09my debit card despite hours of planning nathan miscalculates the savings and breaks his strict
19:15budget limit all right a little over my 50 but that's okay so i'm gonna i hate to bust through my
19:20budget but i didn't have any more coupons to give her let me make sure oh i forgot those now wonder
19:27it was so high but just seconds after closing the register the cashier discovers a stack of coupons
19:33that haven't been scanned i just saw this that was a 40 mistake if she wouldn't have seen them i
19:39probably would not have seen him either this final batch of coupons gives nathan a credit of 41.20
19:45cents and keeps the total for both transactions within his 50 budget very cool
19:56sorry jen for the hassle
20:00nathan's hall includes 30 boxes of dishwashing soaps and 75 cans of pasta and sauces for a stockpile
20:06as well as 20 tubes of toothpaste and 60 bags of popcorn to add to his donation to the troops
20:12the retail value of his total purchases is 882.36 with coupons he paid just 27.04 a 97 savings
20:24i would definitely say mission is accomplished today nathan's replenished stockpile will complete
20:291 000 care packages with a total retail value of more than 20 000 for american soldiers overseas
20:36my husband just to think about how big of a blessing all of this is going to be i'm just here clipping
20:43coupons and your families are what are protecting us this is going to make a huge difference
20:48you're going to make me cry i'm going to cry
