Issue with Extreme Couponing | Buying What You Need

Let me begin with people who are challenged by Diabetes struggle every day and with every food they consumer, every exercise activity they miss. I know. My mother and my wife are diabetic.

Both check their blood regularly and at times if they do not have their monitor with them, they may have to stop in to a drug store to buy a monitor.

If, by publishing this, the extreme couponers intentions are to bring about awareness of the availability of a Free Glucose Monitor, I would not have issue.

The only problem is, the posting below shows exactly the mentality. The post was posted in the Walgreens preview that featured the hottest deals. It did not feature a help out a diabetic friend by alerting them to this deal, it just put it out there with no comment other than "Free".

We all know what is going to happen. The extreme coupon crowd will be out buying Glucose Monitors across multiple transactions, rolling their dollars until they have all the monitors in the store. This behavior can also lead to a stock-out on a product that people rely on in an emergency.

So, in the spirit of trying to help out folks who suffer from Diabetes, this is a great deal for you to purchase and place an extra monitor in the car in case of emergency.

If you do not struggle with Diabetes, please do not go out and, acting like an extreme hoarder, clear the shelf. Someone's life might depend upon that "Free" stockpile of Glucose Monitors you have in your cupboard.

If you have Diabetes, check out Walgreens this week!
