- no "sponsored" posts
sponsored posts (also known as promoted posts, paid posts, sponsored reviews, etc) are posts which are advertisements for a particular company or product, but are usually disguised to look like other posts on the site. the blogger receives compensation in the form of money, products, or services for publishing the post. i won't waste your time with deceptive "content" that is actually an advertisement.
- no promotion of coupon fraud or "extreme couponing"
i will not promote deals involving the incorrect use of coupons. to be sure you are using your coupons legitimately, follow the wording on the coupon and only use coupons that came from a reliable source, such as the manufacturer.
in some cases, a coupon or deal may fall into a "gray area" where some believe the deal is unethical while others think it is acceptable. in these cases, i will most likely post the deal and leave it to you to decide for yourself whether to do the deal or not.
This site is in no way affiliated with TLC’s Extreme Couponing nor do I endorse or condone the type of couponing depicted on the show. TLC’s Extreme Couponing created unrealistic expectations about how coupons work and promoted the misuse of coupons. In real life, individuals attempting to use coupons in such large quantities or in violation of the coupon's terms would likely have their coupons refused at the register or, in extreme circumstances, be investigated by law enforcement.
