1) he has school 2) he works 2 jobs 3) HE CUPONS 4) he cares about family
Dude is so mature
Good future husband
wouldve gotten more likes if you could spell coupons better
Jesus Christ i could adopt this with no hesitation 👍👍👍 god bless this young man 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@duo2146 of course you would be the one complaining about spelling lmao
‘while most kids are out chasing girls at my age… i’m out chasing deals 😎’ we don’t deserve him
Meat is murder be vegan!!
@@meatismurderbevegan4224 yeah, no…
@@meatismurderbevegan4224 no thank you
Haha yes
He is completely open about his couponing. Is he open about other things?
The fact that he got close to $700 worth of groceries and actually had the supermarket pay him is legendary.
The fact that you actually take this seriously and think it's real is even more astounding.
@@kishascape While these exact situations might be staged it's very possible that this is real off screen and he actually does do what he does here.
@@user-bt8xr5si9y nope. Debunked many times. Coupons don’t work the way shown here and both guests and stores featured on the show have admitted it many times. Sorry your life is so sad you have to cling to this desperately but anyone with a fraction of a working brain can see it.
@@kishascape your so mad for no reason
@@kishascape you sound sad bro. is everything good ??
It may be because they are on camera, but mad respect to the cashiers for being so understanding and patient.
It’s bc they’re on camera lol If it wasn’t I guarantee they’d be giving dirty looks the entire time. This is why I’m so scared to try couponing. I don’t wanna make anyone mad at me 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@gabrielnava5207Cashier’s just wanna go home. Their shift is going to be the exact same length regardless of how many coupons you use. Anyone complaining about saving money has an issue that is not yours to deal with.
@@zeik101 um….ok?
@@gabrielnava5207 you should not care that someone is upset that they have to watch you save money. You should save money when you can if you need or want to.
@@zeik101 mhm! :)
Poor boy. He is focused on food security, everyone around him gains from his maturity but no one respects his human value.
Totally agree!!
The quarantine didn't effect him
He is not a human anymore! :D He is THE CUPON MAN :D
Exactly what I was thinking. Kids got drive
His human value would most likely be measured in savings. On a coupon.
"that mistake has costed Cole nearly TWO DOLLARS, and hes not happy..."
That part made me laugh so hard
🤣🤣🤣💀
The best part 🤣🤣🤣
those two girls are dumb i wouldnt want to be friends with them
🤣🤣🤣
For a young man who's doing absolutely whatever he can to financially help his family while having two jobs and going to school, he is setting example and deserves respect. It's sad his peers don't understand. Good thing he keeps his head strong and focus 🙌
He doesn’t have any coupons for zit cream?
@@mikefrommie i see we need a cure for ignorance. you being the prime example
@@b.gcapone6965 It’s just kinda pathetic. Out of all the coupons he doesn’t have one for Proactiv or Oxypads? He’s absolutely hideous for crying out loud
Your missing the main point you only live once and while yes he's staying away from trouble and helping his family he's missing out on the best years of his life and he will never get that time back then to add on to that nothing is gonna get easier after high school because he's becoming a adult and now it's just gonna be more work more studying and more supporting his loser father and mother when they should have been supporting him instead they consciously let him blow a majority of his last year in high school worrying about them when they are the parents they should have been able to support theirselves and contribute to him.
@@mikefrommie he actually isn’t and at least he doesn’t have a personality like yours that’ll turn any Prince Charming into a toad real quick. It appears that you are quite ignorant on the subject so I hope that you can understand that while someone could have all the money in the world and go to the best dermatologist that you may still have cystic acne. It’s not easy to get ride of it like one might think. It’s just veryyyy telling of you are as a person to be so judgmental over a person medical condition.
the fact that he is 17, works 2 jobs, study, lives with "strangers", and does all that for his family it's just amazing. all those kids who make fun of him will realize the big mistake they have made in the future. im 17 and wish i could help my family just like he does, but unfortunately we dont have coupons where i live 😕
Mistake for living the normal life of a 17 year old? This guy has no respect for his family or any other people, he doesn't have any self integrity neither. He is using his family as an excuse for his OCD
@@vhs-retro-rampage7216 get a life
@@vhs-retro-rampage7216 I disagree, I think he has tremendous respect for everyone he’s associated with. Sure he might have ocd that he is actively obsessing over but he is providing for everyone in the only way it appears he can. And he’s damn good at it. If he had no respect for them he would freeload like he is without providing and resell the items, not give them away. Dude works his ass off obsession or not in a healthy way for himself and those around him.
No he is living off generous ppl who should tell him to F Off
I mean its his ex
i was all for defending this boy, he’s just tryin to help, but then he did that seven layer dip and i think he pushed it a lil too far 👀👀
😂
Is beyond too far
Lol
The dinner looked really disgusting 😟
Haha that's funny!
"I think Cole's couponing is kind of weird and it's just a waste of time" it's a waste of time to save money? And get $700 worth of groceries for $10? That's a waste of time to you?! Insane.
They are just dumb teenagers and hes a genius
When you get to the end and realise he got the groceries for -$5
Lol yeah until you have a garage sale and sell that shit for a profit dude pays nothing for this shit. If he decides to start selling he’ll be rich
As a member of a 5 person family, 4 dogs, 5, soon 6, cats. We spend roughly 500 on groceries alone. ( TN) I’d coupon like crazy.
they can only say that because at that age their parents pay for it. Wait until they pay for their own bitches will cry on how expensive groceries arre.
hes helping not 1 but 2 families financially and working two jobs and going to school and sorting out his coupons and searching dumpsters for deals. Mad props to this guy right here.
Yep. His ex girlfriend parents secretly compared him with their daughter. Guarateed.
he is not doing it alone...
@wiezyczkowata so? He's doing most the work. He's a child supporting 2 families. He's more of a man you'll ever be.
@@greyspace7 most of work? no he is not and he is rude, and darling I'm not a man and neither is he...

nah bro u cant defend him when it comes to cooking 💀
@@zaidthefinalboss2727 this is the criticism I had...I almost barfed at the sight of the dip

Honestly cole was really chill with how those girls treated him. I would’ve lost it if I were him.
its a tv show
@@BoDewy so what
@@twicelover2732 so it’s fake
even so they were playfully teasing him like its no big deal
ok
His schoolmates didn't believe in him. But he got the groceries for free, and the supermarket owed him money. Those kids parents are probably scolding them for not learning from Cole. Families are trying to survive to put food on the table daily. Cole is truly a mature young man. He will succeed in life, compared to his peers.
His schoolmates was there after his last transaction.
You mfs are JUDGMENTALLLLLLLLLLLL
He doesn’t have any coupons for zit cream?
This is staged just like wrestling. He didn’t save 150%
@@he-man1799 Yes he did! The supermarket gave him $6 dollars! It was right there in the footage and I saw it with mine own two eyes!
It genuinely breaks my heart that this pressure is all on a teenager
Yeah that’s really sad. He’s scared of food security.
White privilage?? Lmao
It breaks my heart that you think it's real.
Why does it break your heart? He seems happy and excited he’s providing value and worth to everyone around him. Probably makes him extremely happy
Get em 😂 if the kid is actually like that he's a loser
This kid is literally a blessing to his family and a great human being. Bro is supplying 700 dollars worth of food for his family, working two jobs and lives with strangers at 17 and cares about the grand scheme of things. Legend
based pfp
the family is a bunch of moochers
You realize the grocery store is losing money so they will either have to increase their prices, or pay their employees less? Or both?
@@leyniercesar4653 no they won't lmao, people like him are fringe extreme cases that are part in parcel with coupons and are factored into the equation. They're not gonna change prices for thousands of customers because of 1 or 2 individuals. Duh.
@@leyniercesar4653 Hahaha that's not how it works, hahaha.
I felt bad for him. He was trying to shop for his family and the girls continued to bother him even after he asked them to stop.
Theres a reason shes his ex lol
I seriously wanted to scold that girls. Acting like kids😤 seriously
@@nurulmidah8710 Honestly tho
Social awkwardness will be a fault if he continues this path
Because he’s a control freak and needs to chill the hell out . He’s probably a nightmare to be around . Ya he’s making money but still .
I see nothing wrong with this. He’s helping his family and the family that lets him stay with them. He could be out partying but he’s not. He has a good head on his shoulders. Good for him.
The girls are so ungrateful and infuriating. He's feeding them and their family. He's also supporting his family with a small child, and they are acting like that. How awful.
It's because he is so obsessive about it! Dude paid like 3 dollars for a million groceries and still wasn't satisfied!
His ex girlfriend and her friend were being very immature. They obviously don't have a clue about money management. This young man has a bright future.
Agreed
But they are kids...
@@MickeyMouse-ie4zb Just because they're kids doesn't mean they shouldn't know how to use money and know good things for shopping
The girls are very immature
Yea he really dodged a bullet with that one hopefully he can one day fine a great woman who is also quite smart
This boy values taking care of his family so highly. Admirable
@Kys refer to your name
Abby is Bing a witch
@Kys why?
@Kys how is it dumb he’s taking advantage of the coupon system to provide food and other products for his family I think that’s pretty smart not dumb
@Kys have you watched the thing? he's working 2 part time jobs on top of school and couponing, and supports two families!
He’s had to take on the responsibility of helping feed two families, all whilst working two jobs and doing school. His peers are far too judgemental and cruel, he’s just being financially smart and doing what he can to help out. It’s actually really sad, but big respect for him.
He hasn't had to do this. He's a lunatic who forces his ex gf and her family to deal with Did you see the house. They're not struggling. He lives rent free
What a gem this young man is to all. May God bless him all the days of his life.
Mad respect for this guy. Those girls think it's a game but this dude is providing for his family.
And the girls
Yeah but who needs 36 boxes of tissues, who’s using all the diapers like come on now
@@huntersmith8062 resell shit and make 100% profit🤡
@@huntersmith8062 he had a baby brother who he got those diapers for
its just a show
He’s trying to support his family whilst saving money because he’s 17 years old, and his “friends” are screwing with him and it just rubs me the wrong way
I seriously thought this guy was much older. Props to him. Big and kind heart. And smart. What more could we ask for? What a lovely guy

Plus school and two part time jobs. Wow
Also, he works 2 part time jobs in between school and couponing.
what a tremendous responsibility to have at such a young age. I am not sure what to think. I hope his family gets to see better days.
Agreed, like when he first started and it was a fun hobby is one thing, but over time as he became more successful and there was pressure and responsibility placed on him I feel like it became problematic. Like parents/family should be supportive in realizing they’re enabling an unhealthy situation for him
wow!!! I have so much respect for him, to have school, two jobs, and found a way to help the family that helped him and still give to his own family, he is an incredible human being, we need world leaders like him, Cole for President!!!
If they started charging for those green bags his life would be over.
This got it fam
Ikr. In the netherlands you have to pay for bags at the grocery store because of the environment.
Ikr. In the netherlands you have to pay for bags at the grocery store because of the environment.
He probably has coupons for the bags too
He would hate to live in California
Everyone calls him crazy but when he's 22 and living nice and cozy while everyone's struggling he'll be laughing.
Yup
He is literally living with his ex girlfriend i don’t think he is living nice.
He's eating layer dip on expired tostitos while some crane operator in minnesota is eating half a salmon every saturday and still making enough to save up over 2k a months on top of owning a house and a car. couponing is the definition of struggling
@@sonicthehedgefundmanager1187 Huh? The kid is in high school, working his ass off with two jobs at 17yrs old and providing cheap food/supplies for two families and himself. What justifies the comparison between his circumstance and some guy who makes BANK as a salmon-eating crane operator? Is that person you -- are you ego pumping yourself by bashing a minor? I just don't understand your comment, at all.
He won't be cozy. He will be a social introvert and hard pressed life moving forward
One day he will meet a man that will appreciate his frugality
That.. doesn't make any sense whatsoever that the store needs to pay him. Cool dude, playing the system
With the way those girls were dumping everything in the cart, I am not surprised he had an extra soup in there. He takes this very seriously, if they are helping him then they should too or just step off. I have a lot of respect for kids with his kind of mindset. He knows very well how much is every penny worth.
A penny is worth nothing. If he would be smart, he would try to increase his earnings instead and invest his money. Saving with coupons this kind is basically theft from the store. It's a loophole and this loophole is closed for ages where I live. He forever will stay in this mindset and be poor. Also his personality disorder will get worse in time and women absolutely dispise cheapstakes like him. If you're not generous giving money, you're also not generous with feelings. Whole point of the show is to let you all believe you could and should save your money, instead growing it. This kind of mindset is a poor mans mindset. It's a part of why most people are total failures financially.
@@milan51259 ok, then how the hell do you make it grow?
@@shadowmoon1982 You first sit down and contemplate what needs to be done, what money is, how it could work. This will take some hours. Think about what you do and what is wrong, needs to be optimized or completely thrown out of the window. You don't have money? Ok. There must be a reason despite reasons you can't change. There must be something where you f*cked up. It's you that needs to change, not the economy, government, XYZ. Example: stock and crypto meltdown March 2020. Prior to this where booming years. Why didn't you save up and waited for next economic crisis to hit and then bought stocks and cryptocurrency? People in March 2020 bought tons of toilet paper, stocks were down big time. What was your fear? Collapse of dollar? Goverment won't let that happen. What will they do not to have social unrest? Of course print money. When money gets printed, what happens to stocks? Yes, they go up. Think logicly and years ahead. Newspaper writes of inflation. Yeah, but at least 1 year later then you should have known. Logic + a strict financial plan + every day 2 hours of information seeking will make you financially better off in the long run then at least 90% of your peers. Then find people around you to learn too as you will fight every time you speak and it will tear you down. Also its nicer to be well off, when your friends and family are too, instead of them begging you for the money. Change lives to the positive and don't listen to the naysayers and bears. They printed money like crazy. Interest hikes here and there, this money can't be taken out of circulation anymore. Next years until next crisis => biggest bullmarket in history.
@@milan51259 My guy is working two jobs to help provide for his family and as a result be able to provide for his ex-girlfriends family occasionally as they let him stay for free, damn right he should use those coupons, cause you no why, in the end he didn't spend a thing from his ex's family other then the fuel to get there which could partially be paid back with the $5 he got from the store, so this man is doing his best to provide for his family as well as a little on his ex's family as a thank you for letting him stay, he is a good guy, and if you take care of the penny's and the pound's will look after themselves. That's what my Nan always told me
@@milan51259 This guy is doing both. He is increasing his earnings, and saving.

@@pandemonium2431 So WHAT. she is old enough to stand up to her actions and know wrong from right , she is not a baby. Stop with the excuses🙄
This kid is the reason there are coupon limits😂I do applaud him for doing this but I definitely think there is a fine line btw an obsession and insanity and he’s tip toeing
I wish him the best. We all have so many personal battles. And I see somebody who's honestly trying to work through a lot of overlapping issues...as best he can!
Good for him, he will survive living on a budget when he is grown and on his own.
He wont survive like that. He is becoming too obsessed with coupons and when he won’t find enough coupons and will have to pay $3 he will go nuts
Bro he's slowly gonna burn that store he goes thru to the point where they might make rules one coupon per transaction
He is grown. King.
Scripted ass video 😂
He's doing all this and he don't even have his own place or he don't need to have a million dollars
He literally made profit going grocery shopping, this man is insane
with free groceries as well... he just had a shopping spree lol
This comment is so underrated.
@@aarona8709 truly
It's not profit, he spent 12 hours doing couponing. Also most of his food is junk. 🤷 Also wasted the time of two other people. People says time is money but not everyone understands the principal
@Magnus0083 damn no need to be such a Debbie downer
Off topic but this looks like it was filmed in 2009. It’s so nostalgic
He shouldn't be worrying about this but he is... Shows such a great guy he is... Providing for his family at this age . Damm
2 families. He also helped his ex family reducing grocery expenses.
Assuming this is real, one major downside to this is that your diet is now at the mercy of coupon deals which typically might not be that healthy.
Yes. That dipped looked 🤮
Well it seems he got pretty good food so ..its fine
What pressure he feels at a young age to feel responsible to feed his family. What a wonderful family to take him in so he could finish school. I wish there was an update on his story.
The scene at the checkout where the price goes down is legendary, he's having such a great time 👏
Having to work two jobs, coupon during school to feed his family and friends, live with strangers and his ex girlfriend, and managed to get the supermarket to pay him money is extraordinary. This guy needs to be in Guinness World Records! Although I personally don’t like how he threw a tantrum over $2, still he’s a magician!
I can't believe his school mates are against him for doing couponing. I think he's a smart shopper.
Most teenagers don’t understand the value of money. I didn’t until I was at least seventeen. Very bizarre they’d make fun of this guy for it though.
think its less about the money and more about the wasting time and buying shit you don't need
Same
It’s probably more about keeping a coupon stockpile at school and couponing during class.
He’s weird
I dont like the way his companions are messing him up. I know it’s just friendly but sometimes, with serious things like this, they should watch their decorum.
I agree how childish. They could have simply stayed home if they didn’t want to help properly. Instead they chose to go and be childish. When all he was trying to do was do shopping for his family
Agreed. One little joke was fine but it continued and that wasn't acceptable. They didn't care. Next time, he'll be on his own.
@@summersaroundthecorner5948 exactly and it was that soup that she threw in the trolly when he wasn’t looking that made his numbers and calculations go wrong.
@@kerimebozaoglu9283 Yep, saw that..at the end of all the transactions, he hugged and high fives both girls. I wouldn't have done that..
@@summersaroundthecorner5948 I think they probably started taking it seriously after he yelled at them where as at the beginning they weren’t but at the same time he needed all the help he could get so who else was he suppose to ask to help him and hug at the very end the only help he had were Jackie and Abby
i wish i had a son like that . definatly would help out the family and you dont have to worry about stuff. good job
Seems the ex parent did think like you. Maybe that's why she is so annoyed at him 🤭
what a lucky family to have a smart and thoughtful young to have such excitement to bring home food for his family. Everyone laughs at him but he's Saving hundreds for his family. Great job 👍

I think his mindset is really mature and the idea of being able to provide for others is amazing, but i will say moderation is definitely in order and making sure he doesnt burden others along his journey on being a frugal shopper is a must. Props to him for perservering even though people look down on him for it, hes saving mad money, but he also needs to realize that some things are a necessary to buy and some you really dont need.
Like how his exes parents are putting their foot down. Daughter this is our future son -in law. Get with the program dear.
Not gonna lie, if I was in line behind some dude who rang up $180 in groceries, spent 5 minutes scanning coupons to bring the price down to $2.03, and then threw a hissy fit over the $2.03 and wanted to recount everything, I'd probably beat him to death with one of those soup cans lol
Or just pay the 2 for him
Yeah people like you are what make the country a bad place to live in tbh
Go to a different lane then karen
I always self check out so I would've been good
you have angee issues and probably alot more mental problems,you should go see a therapist
I bet if his exgirlfriend had a coupon he would stay with her

Poor guy. Not living his life because of his family. This causes trauma for life but also endurance qualities.
While it's amazing that he's shopping for his family, and that he's saving money, I feel like he has a bit of a problem. I don't think his couponing is weird, and I think its understandable to wanna save money. But I think his obsession is unhealthy, with all the finding coupons, spending hours on them, and having a meltdown when he has to spend 2 dollars. He's gonna be able to save lots of money and he's set for his future. And his friends shouldn't mess with him. I feel like his obsession comes from a need to help and feed everyone around him.
I agree with you about him not willing to pay 2 dollars when he already saved loads of money. To cancel the transaction, spend time to calculate and find what went wrong and make the shop assistant to check out all the items again is insane!
@@MJ_FN457 He didn't do it again, he paid for it and checked the items. That's why she refunded one of the soups.
It's an addiction for sure. He lives and breathes it 24/7
It actually takes a lot of planning and time to do something like this. I get it gets to be obsessive for the people who do this, but a lot does go into this time wise, calculations, the coupons and store policies. Pssh if i could figure out the way they do it I'd do it too!!! I do the discounts and all.
it’s a video .. they wanna make him to do that. Otherwise the video is not interesting I think. All the videos there is a little bit of acting.
His eyes when the lady says he's gonna get 6$... priceless. Love Cole's mentality
Holy shit, not only did he get all that for pretty much free, the store paid HIM?! Smart guy tbh man 😭
I am so proud of this kid. Very smart and amazing
I was on this kid’s side until I saw him throw a borderline tantrum over 2.03$. All these people are a prime example of how hard it can be growing up in a small town. So many of the people you meet are just off lol.
I don’t really blame him though, he kept his cool for so long being pushed and poked the entire trip.
@@Camibug nah this dude was nuts. When they started putting the soup in their he instantly snapped and was like be careful
@@Noles4life77 no. This is just someone who really values his money. I grew up with with a huge fear of financial insecurity and to me every penny counts. To me spending money on fast food or name brand items is nuts. And When you’ve spent so much time and effort making plans to save money and something goes wrong, it’s extremely infuriating and disheartening.
I dont think you understand food insecurity and how that affects someone or just the general struggle of not having a lot of disposable income
Hes a teen. Every dollar counts at that age. Also doing trips like this, one mistake will cause the whole thing to go wrong and maybe he only had like 5 dollars to pay for the whole transaction. Can you imagine how pissed people would be if you got it wrong and they had to put it all back. Also he'd be embarrassed and had missed his goal that he but like 12 hours into planning.
He obviously really cares about his family and his ex girlfriends family. It might be a little excessive but hey, it’s just love.
This kid, is an inspiration. Like I honestly wanna have what this kid has. Mad skill and finesse.
5:35 that guy would totally be me if I saw him at the store lol
The girl's were seriously taking the p--s out of him, when they knew full well how important it was to him. Mean girls!! I hope he never takes his ex girlfriend again with him to help.
It's not stupit ...he's very smart
I know some of those episodes are weird as hell, but I love this episode. He did everything for his family and the strangers in his house, and he still didn't get much respect. (I know this show was filmed around 8-10 years ago but still.)
If I was this kids parents I would be absolutely incredibly proud of how incredible he is at doing this. Wow.
And his ex girlfriend parents secretly envied that he is not theirs. And compared her to him constantly.🤭
The cashier is such a nice person
Cole is great kid buying groceries using coupons and helping his parents buy food.
Yeah but one of his parents could helped him and the two girls shop to make sure everything went properly sometimes it helps to have an adult around too so cole isn’t stuck trying to be the adult himself.
I agree with Megan. Where are his parents? He says that they moved away for work and he's worrying about their food security, yet they seem to have moved away, had a new baby, dumped him with his ex's family, and only visit to pick up groceries from him (that they can't even be bothered to help him pick up from the store). The kid seems to have a good heart yet is being callously used by his parents. It's really sad.
@@georgina-a It's a show Georgina and most likely at least 70% of it is pure fiction. It's part of shows who will let you believe you could and should save using coupons, sponsored by businesses, basically free advertisement for stores. With the mindest of "saving" on coupons, nobody ever has become successful in life. Where I live in Europe, you can only use 1 coupon per person and buy goods in normal household quantity, not shop 65 soups or anything like that. Also whole story is logically incoherent. This shows are not only wasting your precious time, they also put you in mindest to stay a poor (financially seen) loser.
@@milan51259 I agree with a lot of what you've said but, whether it's the truth or a cover-story for TV, that kid is in an awful position (even if it's for entertainment purposes, it's so wrong to promote that behaviour).
Yes he is great too bad his parents are buying buzz with the money they saved...
He’s really a smart businessman
I'm so confused as to how stores can owe people money after coupons.
It can only happen in the US.
I guess it's specific stores only and because it's the US, never heard of it outside TV from the US and I know people in Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Chile & Spain
Coupons like the ones he used are issued by corporate; the store does not actually lose any money. For example, Kleenex corportate produced those one dollar off coupons, so when the store scans the item (unless it is a store-provided coupon) they are later reimbursed by Kleenex for selling their product. Obviously corporate doesn't expect most people to hoard their coupons like he does, the coupons were probably produced in a relatively low number and intended to be used as almost a free trial. I just don't understand how he got his hands on that many of them. This kid is a genius and is (legally) exploiting the system for his own gain.
@@MJ_FN457 nah can happen in the UK too.... in Asda certain coupons like detergent you don't even need the product for so if you're doing self service and you have a £5 coupon you could get negative and they have to give you the money the same way you get change on a bank note.... also sainsburys used to have a glitch if something is buy one get one free then it will discount the full amount even if its reduced (e.g I once bough chicken breast running out of date for £0.99 BOGOF from £2.99, I only needed chicken and bought two and the amount came to -£2 which they had to give me, another time after then I was doing a full shop and got a load of reduced BOGOF meat so got them all and £70-80 worth of food and over £100 worth of meat came up to £6, if there were a few more packets of meat they would have paid me money to do my big shop I only do a couple times a month, filled my freezer with meats and gave my family the rest so nothing was wasted)
genius
I grew up poor, if I had a friend like him now I would help him as much as possible cause I know it's hard. Those girls laughing and taking his and his family's financial stability as a joke really shows how privileged they are.
Shut up!! Just cause he spends his life cutting prices🤡

Those girls are so disrespectful, he’s trying to benefit his family and their making a joke if it. I’m sure they’ll eat his benefits though.
To be fair they did take him in
Goes shopping, makes money. WHAT IN THE FINANCE MAGIC?????
This is so hard to do today. There are so many rules and policies so it’s not as “fun” as it used to be 😅😂
But the vid is a month old
@@jakeyflakey3582 this episode aired a long time ago
Yeah. "No more than 2 items per coupon. Limit 1 per family, per day" "Cannot be used in combination with already on sale products" The list goes on and on.
Yeh. It’s to the point where they don’t even ask you if you have a coupon lol
I cannot wrap my head around this! The store actually owed him money?
yeah im dumb too
It's happened to me several times, including last week. I had 2 coupons for $3 per for deodorant normally $6. But it was on clearance for $2.50... so they paid me 50 cents per tube back!
it's very possible, happened to several times at Rite-Aid and Kroger. you just have to have coupons that are over the value of the item and a store that allows it.
You probably don't coupon and don't understand it ok, I had coupon at Walmart a couple years ago they own me money. High value coupon you sometime get overage depends on the store.
@@beeshoney4945 that first part ...u sound snooty for being a cheap skate
The empathy, fortitude and overall willingness of sacrifice are incredible traits. If he keeps this up, this young man will have no problem finding success in life.
He's a great boy, caring for his family!❤
I was on board with the other kids thinking he was weird for saving all those coupons, but walking out of a store with $600+ worth of groceries and being owed money at the end? Yeah, this kid is a finance genius
I too started as a “coupon kid”. Couponing is so different now. You don’t need to spend so much time “cutting coupons”. With digital coupons on stores’ apps and rebate apps, it’s so easy - get stuff for free all the time.❤️
Any suggestions for apps to try?
@@zenmindstate110 Ibotta is a great one to start with and will give you the most cash back. They also give a lot of freebies - use code ACTPEOO to sign up for free. Fetch rewards is probably the easiest to use - use code 9DVBB to sign up for free❤️
A coupon for couponing huh
what the fuck look at these bots
@@midnightstorm4290 lmao
Young and doing what is has to do for two families. Truely amazing.
Smart kid...could be wasting away playing videogames but he's found a way to save money
I've seen a lot of extreme cheapskate videos (not proud of that lol), but this guy is special. He actually doesn't hurt anyone with his cheapness, he's positive and he actually thinks about his future and his family. What a good person
He definitely hurts people with his cheapness. The whole family had to spent their free time, cutting op coupons and you can clearly see that he has control issues. When something goes wrong you, he is ‘about to have a nervous breakdown’. Who needs to help him then?
@@floran8913 Idk about you, but if I had two people constantly needling me and deliberately messing with my plans, I'd be having a nervous breakdown when said plans go wrong.
@@hotsoup1339Two people who gave this clown a place to stay and are essentially his slaves deserve more
@@floran8913Yeah, although I admire how he wants to help his family, he's the kind of person who I would find exhausting in real life
He hurts the business
If this kid was at my school everyone would love him. He just seems like such a chill interesting dude
Bro if thts interesting and chill at ur school i don’t wanna know but the weird kids at ur school 💀💀
Nervous breakdown over a dollar Yep. Real chill.
You know if someone wanted to help the homeless this would be the best way to do it
He's hoarding. He is just letting the good go bad
seen this thought complete dork.....watched and now see a bright future for this man
Some kids sell drugs, some sell crap from Costco. Can’t knock the hustle
That mistake had cost him two whole dollars and he’s not happy. Me: he wasn’t planning on spending anything was he!😂 imagine not bring money to the store!😂
🤣🤣🤣 Sir that coupon expired two minutes ago. You have to pay $2.70
he did bring money. he said the budget was 10 dollars, so he probably only had that much on his wallet (i mean, thats not much money but yeah). and he probably spent hours planning all that trip and stuff he wanted to buy, so if everthing it was not supposed to cost too much anyway
Also this is a lovely thing to do for his family; wonderful 👍
I find it hella cringe living with your ex parents but also make them help you with your obsession ☠️
High schools around the U.S. should bring back HOME Economics with sewing and meal planning and they should also introduce Coupon clipping to help teach these Kids that this will help with their grocery budget . After all this is a good life skill that will be with them for years to come
I mean frankly the most important objective about school should be to prepare kids for the real world so I fully agree that there needs to be more of a practical education that involves real world stuff
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 Yes!! They should teach them how to live on a budget, how to Plan life, rent a Flat, read contracts, Cook.... of course its a parents Job. But we know that Not everybody has that Kind of parents. And the ones who dont have someone who prepares them start with very little Ressources. They need teaching the most.
Bs. They should teach simple economics and financial education, so people can actually become a financial success and this definitely isn't achieved by "couponing". Have you ever heard of a millionaire couponing? Probably not. Because they don't do it. They buy the healthy food they crave. No fast food. No processed food. No toxic crap. Couponing is a strategy from supermarkets so customer buy additional crap they don't need so they can clear they're stocks. Usually these are the products nobody wants and this is because of good reasons. Shows like this are payed partially by stores to promote the loser mindest of poor people, so they don't actually think about what money exactly is and how it works. If they would think about it for half an hour a day (most of people don't, because they hustle in work 24/7), they would see how money really is made (stocks, passive investments, stakes in companies, lending, cryptocurrency, real estate etc). These companies want you to be as uneducated with money as possible, so they can sell you their crap. Don't let yourself fool into staying poor!
Me over here in rural South Carolina In home ec. We actually had to use a sewing machine today. Had to practice running the needle along a sheet of paper
The cashier is such a nice person
This kid is a saint. I wish I would have been like this as a kid. I was working full time at 16 and dropped out of school to work just to keep the lights on and food on the table and most of the time the food was dollar menu.
Its fake love sorry to break it to ya

Love this kid, not doing anything cheap or illegal just took advantage of the rules and helped his family Nice man
It was the chasing deals not girls for me 😂😂😂
Wow that is so much for a kid his age to be dealing with! What an awesome guy to be providing for his family like that! Hope he gets to have a bit of time to just be a kid some days!
So sad, has nobody around to teach him financial freedom, bro tripping off $2 and hopping inside dumpsters. He got the hustle of a homeless man. SMDH Pray for this young boys family
For 1. It's not an obsession. It's a passion. For 2. If something is profitable or charitable, it is worth investment. Homie is helping people live an affordable life. I'd be his friend.

He’s also running down that business to the ground since they just lost over 1000$ in goods
