I Hate Anyone That Still Clips And Uses Coupons

Fox - A “couponing” mom in Tennessee says she was attacked inside a grocery store because a customer said she was holding up the line, according to WREG.

Megan Wilson was attempting to use several coupons at a Kroger store in Memphis on Friday when a customer got frustrated because it was taking a long time at the checkout register.

“He started shouting ‘Come on, there’s other people out here. Nobody has time for this,'” Wilson told WREG.

Wilson said she went “back and forth” with the man before the altercation turned physical.

“He grabbed my bun pulled me back and smashed me into my cart. When I came to… I was on the ground and my leg was under the cart,” she said.

He shouldn’t have slammed her on the ground even if she had it coming, blah blah blah, who cares. That’s not what we’re here to talk about. We’re here to talk about how fucking stupid the idea of coupons are in general. It’s the most old fashioned, geriatric shit that we still for whatever reason have in the US of A. I assume nobody under the age of 55 with a job that offers direct deposit uses coupons, and I cannot wait for the day for them to be eliminated completely. The idea of watching someone buy 8 toothbrushes to save 50 cents drives me up the wall. The people who buy 30 ketchups who think they are getting away with robbery are the most stupid because then they are left with 30 god damn ketchups.

Did I wake up today thinking I’d be disgusted by the idea of coupons? Can’t say I did. But reading about a “couponing mom” made me sick to my stomach. Thinking about standing in the grocery line, waiting for this broad to scan her coupons, and then removing items because a coupon didn’t work, and then rifling through more coupons, it legitimately sounds like Hell on Earth.

And on that same subject, if you put something on the checkout line belt, it’s yours. You don’t get to remove it. The second the cashier scans it, there’s no takesie backsies. So look, I’m not applauding the guy tossing her meth-head looking ass on the ground like he’s doing a Johnny Football highlights without rights,

but I’m not upset about it either.

PS: Aren’t there are apps now where every coupon is just loaded onto your phone? So how about this compromise- if everyone has access to every coupon right in the palm of their hand, why don’t we just eliminate coupons all together and just have everything at that set sale price? Everyone wins.
