Who knew that couponing was, in some ways, a sport? To be honest, not me. It sounds boring, going through magazines and newspapers, even items you've purchased, and cutting out barcodes and other forms of proof of purchase, and then (re)stocking up on those exact items that you most likely do not need. There's also a hoarder element here that needs attention, too.
As for the film, the fantastic cast (including the underutilized Joel McHale and deadpanned Vince Vaughn, who felt out of his element but made it work to take on the role of who he was portraying) make for an entertaining film, but it's the story that kept my full interest. From couponing to straight-up breaking the law? Now that's my kind of jam.

Bored and frustrated suburban homemaker Connie and her best pal JoJo, a vlogger with dreams, turn a hobby into a multi-million-dollar counterfeit coupon caper. After firing off a letter to the conglomerate behind a box of cereal gone stale, and receiving an apology along with dozens of freebies, the duo hatch an illegal coupon club scheme that scams millions from mega-corporations and delivers deals to legions of fellow coupon clippers. On the trail to total coupon dominance, a hapless Loss Prevention Officer from the local supermarket chain joins forces with a determined U.S. Postal Inspector in hot pursuit of these newly minted “Queenpins” of pink collar crime.
