I'm watching WifeSwap while I work on a few things!
One of the Mom's is a coupon clipper (are you on this sight?) and stockpiles.
They showed the stockpile and her savings receipts. The other mom is a spender! They always try and pair up total opposites. I can't wait to see if anything changes. I don't know many AFCers who would abandon their coupons and stockpiles. I'm sure this woman won't either!

Did you all get a kick out of my typo, which I have now fixed???
I definitely don't want to do WIPE swap and probably don't want to do WIFE swap either.

Cool

Did you notice something weird with the website though? The format is totally different.

[debbiepeter]

OH this is good!!!!!

[JaimeDae]

I couldn't do that show but if I had to I'd probably stay up after hours to do my couponing even though they make you do the other persons routine

[LindseyLouXOX]

I met an older gentleman in CVS the other day, he was amazed with my couponing and started talking about this episode. I definitely need to watch it!

[Loyster]

I'm so glad someone else is watching this. The couponing family are total homebodies and of course not all of us are like them/that! I understand why they did, but I feel bad they made her tape over all the brands in her stockpile, that would drive me nuts hahah!

Oh no they didn't! I hope it didn't ruin the packing, or else they'd better replace it on their dime!

I was thinking the same thing....we aren't all stuck in the 80s just because we coupon and we aren't all homebodies! In fact, I have more top of the line, "new" stuff since that is often what the Qs are on!

Do you know what the title of this one is? I have to see if I can find it so I can watch.

Unfortunately, it would be product placement if they didn't. No free advertising from her stockpile.
I particularly like the fake toothpaste boxes!

I would not allow it, couldn't they just blur her stockpile?

It's the McIntyre/Keyser families swap

ABC.com - Wife Swap - Episode Guide - McIntyre/Keyser

I think if they blurred it, they would lose the effect of the stockpile. We all know what a stockpile looks like and hers was pretty average, but for most people...those weird ones who don't stockpile, I think the shock effect would be lost in blurring. I'm sure the stuff behind is just turned so you can't see the labels.

[elena_398]

Is there a place where you can watch the episode?

[laylamorgangrace]

i dont have cable but that would of been interesting to watch ! my cousin is the opposite of me she only shops at krogers which can be rather high at times without sales and coupons. But i coupon shop at 3 or so different stores to get good deals she just dosent understand how much money i save and thinks it is so hard to do ! but its really not!

[Luv2Shop247]

I remember watching this episode with my dbf. I think this was when the robitussin deal at walgreens was going on, because the husband was talking about going to the store on his lunch to get some .

[schmidt00]

Is the episode online anywhere...? I have looked on ABC and cannot for the life of me find it. THEN I went to youtube.. nada... maybe its too new.

[kacillewis]

was this the one that aired in December/January. if so, that is the reason i am on AFC..

[noellebrow]

No idea if it is anywhere online to watch.

It might have originally aired in dec/jan but I saw it 9/3 (the day of my OP).

I don't think they mentioned AFC specifically in this episode...was there an episode where they mentioned AFC?

I saw one about 6 months ago where a coupon family (dad wore shirt saying real men coupon haha) swapped w/ a non coupon family. My husband made me watch it hahaha. The non-coupon wife was appauled at "the stockpile" of toiletry type items and was shocked at the amount of time they wasted collecting all of that stuff. The non-couponing family did a lot of together type activities and the couponing family made their kids pick up coke bottlecaps for fun.

[kacillewis]

she was a member of another site and it was free to visit for a week, and i clicked on the Target Generator link and am here to stay.

Oh, I think I remember watching the part where they are all out picking up caps in the alleys and stuff, but I didn't watch the whole thing, and the kids are miserable and everything. Was it also the one where the parents enter tons of contests and go to meetings with other people who enter contests? I'm trying to remember...
