Extreme Couponing craze in Tweens!

The past 2 weeks I have had the amazing opportunity to travel a LOT and teach 26 coupon classes in a few different states. One thing that I have noticed in the past few months is the number of “tweens” who are HUGE fans of the show Extreme Couponing.

In each class I have taught there are always a few tweens who came to say “hi” and who basically begged their parents to take them to the class.

I LOVE THIS!!!

My kids friends are completely addicted to the show and ask my kids questions all the time. Of course my kids roll their eyes and do their best to answer questions, but my kids are hardly impressed 🙂

When I was a teen, I was super frugal but didn’t have the first clue about how to use a coupon or where to get them. These kids are the ones helping their parents and in some cases doing the couponing for their families. What a smart and thrifty group of teens! The cool thing for me is to imagine how much better they will do financially in college and after. I wish SO MUCH that I had known how coupon in college and even high school. These kids already know how and are doing it!

P.S. Sorry for my dumb smile… they were in the middle if making fun of me for being shorter then them and I could not stop laughing!
