Extreme Coupon-er Wannabe...I think

I don't know if you've ever seen the new show called 'Extreme Couponing". I've watched an episode or two and I find myself wanting to follow in their footsteps...to an extent. I mean, one woman spends up to 6 hours a day working her "system" of coupon searching, clipping and organizing, etc. Sounds like a full-time job to me! So, on one hand I'm inspired to save BIG like them and on the other hand, I'm a little freaked out by the compulsiveness of the behavior. I'm trying to figure out which side is going to win. I'm totally for coupons, but it does take time, effort and organization. When I see these people getting 94-98% savings at the register, I squirm. It makes me feel uncomfortable because I know I could save so much more in groceries than we are right now. Some people these days say it's wise to stock up on stuff you'll need when the economy gets even worse. If this is the case, then these folks who have their own grocery store in their garage due to extreme couponing, and have enough to keep them going for 3 years, are on the right track and we could learn from them! Perhaps we could learn from them anyway. Even if we don't turn it into a full-time job, we could atleast see how much we can get for our money. Why not? I wonder sometimes about our way of thinking. Just because someone has the money to spend on groceries and spend about $100-200 in one shopping trip doesn't mean they have to. What if you could get even more and spend less? Would you be willing to work the system to do that? If it meant savings for other areas of life: education, your children's needs, trips.... I'm considering becoming more of a coupon user. The follow through will be the toughest part for me. I think I can. I think I can.
