Others were more skeptical about the practicality of couponing.

“I want to get into couponing bc I’m broke but I don’t like that you only can buy what coupons there are,” @mushroomwhisperer commented. “I don’t want or need 7 boxes of Nicorette gum.”

“You have to pay a lot out of pocket for extra bucks,” @10.10.0083 wrote.

“How much of this do you actually use/need?” @sapphyreg commented.

Some focused on the potential size of Erika’s receipt since CVS tickets are notoriously lengthy.

“The length of that receipt must be legendary,” @themrsharrison17 wrote.
