Hi fellow Cheeseheads! I am from Oregon WI (10 min. south of Madison)

[Acherry8308]

New to AFC, From Milwaukee, WI!

[Surromomof2]

Eau Claire here. Well, technically Cadott, but I work, shop, pretty much do everything in Eau Claire, so it counts in my book! Lived in EC for 25 years, only moved up to Cadott so we could get some land...with the prices of gas these days, I'm not quite sure it's always worth it! I'm pretty new to AFC and only been couponing for a few months but I'm loving it!!

I think you are going to have a difficult time finding someone in Milwaukee who you would deem an extreme couponer (like the TLC show has shown). Those people don't really exist here (where they get $500 worth of items for $15). Milwaukee doesn't have stores that double all coupons (Pick n Save will double up to 5 $1 coupons if you spend at least $25). The TLC shows have had agreements with local stores to go against their coupon policies for the show (doubling more than 3 or 4 like coupons, allowing for overage...if the item is 25 cents and you have a coupon for 50 cents that could double to a dollar, the store would allow the 75 cents overage that would go toward other items that you are purchasing...isn't allowed at Pick n Save) so you really won't be able to find someone who can show you those types of savings. Also, many of the couponers on the TLC show misused coupons (using coupons for Total cereal on much cheaper cereals made by the same manufacturer) which most ethical couponers would never do. However, there are people from Milwaukee on these boards that do have "stockpiles" where they have accumulated a number of products (shampoos, deodorants, medicines, etc.) that they have grown into a nice stockpile. Good luck on your quest!

Milwaukee too! I do most of my shopping at pick n save and am very new to couponing, but I know they do take printed coupons. I have used them there a few times.

Hi there Acherry
That is good to hear about the printed coupons. Thanks. Have you done the double coupon Wednesday/Saturday? I wish we had unlimited instead of the 5/$25 then I would purchase extra coupons also.

[sherbear14]

Racine Wi here everyone

I did once, they had double double daze on Saturdays in April where they doubled 10, but not anymore it is hard to really save a lot with the $25, I'm still trying to figure it all out

[TMSchmitz2007]

New to this.....from La Crosse here

[Losingitagain]

Pick n Save just finished doubling up to ten $1 Qs on Saturdays. They are back to doubling up to only five $1 Qs. They do take IPs (Internet Printables) except for free items. If the free Q is from the manufacturer, they'll accept it, but not if the free Q is an IP.

[Tamlyn]

Can coupons be loaded to our PnS store cards? I heard some people do this.

[savinginWI]

I'm in Milwaukee and just getting started with couponing. I wish there were Pick n Save forum! It's so hard to save a lot of money there.

[Sasha101]

I'm in the Eau Claire area - I noticed 3 or 4 replies in the same city. I shop @ Walgreens and Mega Foods right now....looking to expand to Target and MAYBE Walmart. We don't have double coupons here that I've found.

I'm new in Wisconsin from Alabama, now living in Neenah

[ladygodiva02]

I am between the Dells and Madison. Food deals have been pretty hard lately. My grocery store (an IGA) did one day of doubles earlier in the year....no whispers of a repeat.

I'm in Green Bay and even have a website that highlights all the Northeastern Wisconsin deals at Woodmans Aldi, Festival, Copps, Fleet Farm, Piggly Wiggly, as well as CONSUMER related tips and advice and more, but AFC has such strict rules about what I can or can not mention that I don't know if I can even give the name out. :-)

[traintk]

I would love to know what that website is. Can you pm me??

Watertown, right here!!

How fun would it be to have a Wisconsin AFC get together?
