TLC's Extreme Couponing

TLC debuted a new show called Extreme Couponing last night. I didn't see the show but wow it was the buzz on my facebook today. And I get it. I am a couponer. I understand the high from saving 95%. I understand the pride that comes from knowing you are saving your family money, but these shoppers take it way too far. Anything that becomes a obsession becomes a god in your life and we all know how GOD feels about that one. Save yourself some money by couponing. I think we are called to be good stewards of our money, but don't do it at the expense of your family and remember when you take 60 coupons into a store for a single item, that other families are struggling too and need that free shampoo just as much, if not more, than you do.
