    Collin I think your videos are awesome and I am like a stalker on your site on Mondays waiting for the next one to be loaded!!! LOL jk

    Side Note: If I have to read the lecture of one more server and why lemons is robbing them blind I think I will scratch my eyes out. Do you see Walgreens or Target managers on here throwing fits because she was paid to buy an item at their store or got it for free….NO so get over it already. All of you complainers keep coming back to her site and I don’t understand why. If she upsets you so much then stop watching the videos.

      i totally agree. i was a server once, and really didn’t care if people wanted a ton of lemons as long as they weren’t mean! if people said please and thank you i would bring them a bucket of lemons and smile doing it!! the lemons don’t come out of the servers paycheck, just like the coupons don’t come out of the cashier’s paycheck. only the bitter and angry or the misstreated care at all!!

      i love your videos collin, and i love your attitude!! not everyone can smile when people get all uptight and i’m glad you think it’s funny and laugh. it’s refreshing!!

      anyway i love your whole site and thanks to you i get a ton of great deals. please keep it up!!

  5. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Wow all negative responses on this video are so pathetic. Get over it. Old and overdone?? NO ..if you do not like it get another boring blog to follow. All of you leaving negative remarks and then saying “o no offense” get over yourself. Collin you are amazing in every way!! You have helped so many of us and guess what?? I MAKE LEMONADE AT HOME EVERYDAY WITH A LEMON WEDGE!!!! YEA!!! Collin, i love how you rise above all these pathetic readers and throw the lemon in their face. What a great video.

  7. Ashlei

    I seriously think the lemon comments were the best thing that happened to you because I can’t stop laughing with the random lemon bits! SO FUNNY!

  8. Vicky

    So cool! you are 🙂 Love this week’s video (lemons and all 🙂 Mondays are now one of my favorite days because of you! Great sense of hum0r, thanks!

  9. Janell

    Collin..YOU ROCK! The lemons had me rolling on the floor making my husband question what was so funny about a video. Great way to make a subtle yet dramatic point..go YOU!

    love the “hidden” lemons!

    I’ve heard that some store have their own “code” in the pricing indicating when the price has hit rock bottom. For example, when the price ends in a 7 you know it will not go any lower. Any truth to this? And do you know the codes?

    You’re the best!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Years ago it was if the price ended with a 4, as in $1.04 or $9.94. If it ended with a 4 it was rock bottom. Anyone know if that is still true?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      When I worked at Sears you always knew it was a closeout if it ended in a 7. The other numbers were just clearance but 7 was always closeout.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      i do know that on Targets clearance if it ends in 24 that is the lowest it will go, hope this helps got this info from asking a store employee

    • Ashley

      In a lil store called Shopko if the red clearance sticker ended in a 4 is was a store clearance. Usually something defective or near expiration. And, typically won’t get any lower.

      Hope that helps.

    i dont understand the lemon thing, what am I missing???

    Anon,

    Collin did a Date Night Follow Me Monday video a few weeks ago and ordered water with lemons from Olive Garden. The server brought a big cup of lemons ( for the whole table) and she used the lemons and sugar packets to make lemonade and didn’t have the cost of paying for a drink. While many of us thought it was thrifty, some people chose to make extremely negative comments about it saying she shouldn’t be so cheap or she was taking advantage of the server, etc.

    So many of us have jumped to her defense and basically said if you can’t say something nice, don’t do it at all. Now the lemons are kind of like an inside joke!

    Go, Collin!!! =)

    • Ashley

      THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have been trying to locate the video because (from reading other messages) this is what I assumed had happened. I have been digging through all these comments for the pass fifteen minutes w/ fingers crossed someone would comment.
      Thank you!!

    Love Your Sense of Humor!!! When life gives you lemons, make all the money savin’ moms laugh out loud….Some people take life way too seriously. I’m glad you have chosen to just laugh it off. This is my favorite site. Thanks!

  14. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    You are too funny! I love your site and check it every day. It’s so complete and up-to-date on all the latest deals. Keep smiling. And thanks for all the work you do for us!

  15. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    You are so fricken funny! I was butin a gut when your camera person got a phone call, then the random shot of the lemon on your cup & finally the lemon in your shirt put me over the edge!!!! I am still laughing.

    I think you should incorporate lemons into as much of your stuff as possible, sort of like a trade mark. I hope to continue to see them pop up random places in your videos & blog. At this point it is just plain funny! 🙂

  16. Candice

    Why are you so crazy? That was hilarious! I love how it’s not just save money here… use these coupons… blah blah blah. These clips are actually pretty entertaining. I actually laugh out loud. My husband thinks I’m a douche. LOL!

  17. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    For all of you who were wondering what happened to the MIA lady and the unattended purse in the cart in yesterdays Follow Me Monday Video that Collin stumbled across, Well I was told by a very reliable source that the purse was actually a purse that Target sells and the person who had the cart decided they no longer wanted to buy it so they just left it and the cart there. Too Funny!

  18. Jackie

    OMG!! I was so LMAO!!! Love the lemons!!

  19. char

    love love LOVE the lemon action – especially the last one in your sweater! 🙂 You’re so fun!

  20. Liann

    Colin-

    Kudos to you for coming up with some great ideas…I still need practice…love your site….you are too hilarious.
    Thank you

  21. Megan

    Okay, a topic other than lemons for one minute, although they are hilarious.

    Did anyone notice the little peak of a supercute new purse in this video? Collin, please tell us where you got it!

  22. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Not sure if anyone posted about the “sticker” nail polish she was asking about. I know Avon used to sell them (not sure if they still do), but my mom is an Avon rep, so she gave me some. I wasn’t too keen on the ones made for fingers, but I loved, loved, loved the ones made for toes! If I decided last minute I wanted to wear a sandal or open-toed shoe, and realize my nails weren’t painted, they would be in about 3-5 minutes! And no waiting for them to dry! Plus, they lasted much longer and didn’t chip. At one point, I realized I had them on for about 2 weeks, and still looked fresh! Now I’m going to have to find out if Avon still sells those….

  23. Jen from Germany

    I can tell you are military because you are making lemonade out of your lemons! I think the one stuck in your sweater at the end was the funniest one of all! Thanks for all you do! I didn’t realize how much I missed shopping until I saw your video. All I have is the PX and the Commissary. Although I did get an $8.49 razor for 27 cents the other day. Talk about speechless that was the cashier!

  24. Angela

    I always love your videos. They are so funny. They make me smile.. all the time and laugh out loud sometimes. Mondays are my favorite day so I can watch your follow me videos. Wish you had them every day. Keep up the good work.

  25. michelle

    This is the best site ever. I have been saving so much money and am so grateful for all that you do. Please keep doing it.
    p.s. got a BIG kick out of the lemons. Very cute.

  26. Lindsay

    The lemons are cracking me up! We love you girl!

  27. amber

    LOL! If I saw another lemon I was going to pee my pants!

  28. Michelle D

    Collin great video as usual
    Oh my, i laughed so hard with those lemons…. 🙂

  29. Stephanie

    The lemons were hilarious! I am so glad you posted this. I was amazed how many summer sports things were on clearance. My husband actually found our son 2 pairs of baseball pants and 2 pairs of baseball socks, all for under $7!!!!

  30. Rachelle

    Thank you Collin !!!! I just started following your blog a few weeks ago and I’m HOOKED !! Thank you so much for sharing all of your tips, ideas, lemonaid recipes, etc. I love you fun personality. Keep on sharing the love with the savings & I’ll keep following.

  31. Lynne

    I personally think you should keep the lemons as a part of your videos for a good long while. I’m at home alone cracking up over those lemons. I scared the dog! Long live them lemons!

    I was at Target yesterday for some sheets and all their flannel sheet sets are on 75% off- the highest priced ones for KING size were like $21. Twins were priced at $10-12.

  32. bonnie79

    OH MY GOSH..my eyes are watering…I kept it together intill i saw the shot with you in the car with the lemon in your shrit…I came unglued!…I choked on a baby carrot…Thanks alot…you almost killed me! J/K…. but really you guys are having too much fun…soooo funny!

  33. isabel

    LOVE THE LEMONS!!!!! Please never stop making video’s there by far a big part of my week.

  34. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    oh the lemons are back!

  35. Elizabeth

    You should totally make a ring with a big lemon on it. It would be awesome since you tend to talk with your hands a lot. Great clearance tips! Keep em coming!!!

  36. Jacquie

    Love the funny videos! And what’s with the lemons!!! That is so funny!

  37. Tashera

    LMAO! Yeah Lemon!

  38. Coupon Princess

    Today I went to Walmart and was so excited to find something in the clearance section that I had a coupon for. I bought two bottles of Clairol Color Cream for $2 ea. and had a coupon for $5 off 2. I used my $1 overage to buy TP and only spend 65c for everything. Nice 🙂

    B.T.W. I Love your videos. I wish I could be so organized to put something together. Since I am brand new to couponing (less than a week) I’ll probably wait a couple months before I try and Host or Co star in any video. LOL

    Here’s a funny:
    In One of your videos you spilled your coffee on the floor I think at Publix and I chuckled a bit (because thats usually something I would do), well tonight I walked by a huge end cap of paper towels about 5 ft wide and 7 ft high and they all came crashing down. I just stood there in a daze…too embarrassed I started picking them up and mentioned to the women across the isle “I have no idea how they fell, I didn’t even touch them”
