The Slice Safety Cutter #Review


I was recently given the opportunity to review The Slice Safety Cutter - Great for Couponers.
I was actually surprised at how small it was. My first thought was what am I going to be able to do with this small thing?
I tried it out on my huge stack of coupons first. I was very surprised at how well it fit in my hand and how easy it was to use!
I always have used scissors to cut coupons and my hands will cramp up after about 15 minutes of cutting and I will have to take a break.
Using The Slice Safety Cutter, I was able to cut out coupons faster and my hand did not cramp up one bit!

I have also learned that I can use The Slice Safety Cutter for other things beside coupons. I get packages in the mail all the time and there are times where I will have a hard time cutting through all the tape.
I can take The Slice Safety Cutter and open my packages up with one quick swift motion!

Another issue I thought I would have is having this around my children. 
I did not want to risk them touching this and getting cut.
BUT I can take my finger and press down and it won't even prick through my skin!

Extreme Couponing Tonight on TLC: Yay or Nay?

Extreme Couponing Show on TLC will be on tonight at 9 pm and 9:30 pm EST (2 different episodes).

I am not a huge fan of this show. I think it is a good program to watch to get an ideal on how to use coupons. But this show is not realistic. Real couponers usually do not use thousand coupons at a time. In my opinion, these people featured on this show has deeper issues. Having so much stock pile is hoarding. Actually, couponers usually have major problems trying to use coupons at different stores. I am an avid couponer and I love it. But I know that it is not easy. This shows makes it seem like you can do this without any problems and cashier, managers and so forth are so kind towards coupons. I have had many encounters where the complete opposite has happened. I have heard some really bad horror stories about some of the stores that are being shopped at during this program. Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, Kroger and so forth.  Please if you start couponing because of this show remember these rules:



  1. Do not clear the shelf. There are many other people who would love to snag the deal as well. There have been so many times that I have wanted to do a deal and I get to the store and the shelf has been cleaned. I understand stockpiling, but cleaning the shelf? Not cool.

  2. Have your store polices with you. There have been so many times a manager has tried to get snippy about a coupon and insist that there store policy does not exist. I always get an awesome feeling when I can swipe out their coupon policy and show them! Their faces are always priceless.

  3. Do not try to cheat by using coupons. Do not buy items that the coupon does not pertain to. I have heard stories about people figuring out certain coupons will not beep for different items. This is considered coupon fraud and can really cost couponers. This type of behavior is what causes cashiers and managers to hate coupons! BE HONEST!

  4. Do the deals that YOU and YOUR family will use. Really what is the point in stockpiling items you will never use?
