Yup during super doubles I bring my husband. When my sister goes to HT with me to get "lunch" I hand her coupons to use to, lol.

Years ago, when my sisters and I were young, my grandma would do this. She'd get extra coupons from neighbors/friends, give us our set and money, and we'd all check out separately. And this was in the early 80s!

We do the same as well. I got my husband on stand by for my 12/30 pampers purchase at Babies r us. :)

HAHA I can remember doing this as a child from the age of about 4, when I learned to count money lol. Mom would give my brother and me money and we would go through the line as paying customers. The employees never said anything and let us do it. This was in the early 80's as well.

I do this with DH all the time. Especially at HT on super weeks. I go early and get all of the deals. I put a shopping basket into my cart to help seperate the orders. Then he arrives at the store with our son at 7 when the sale "starts" according to the registers. He gets his basket, I give him his stack of coupons, and we check out! Our HT is about a 15 min drive so I only go once during super weeks, but him checking out as well makes it like two trips! We do the same at Farm Fresh, our favorite local chain. He pushes the baby around the store and entertains him and I fill up each of our carts and we check out separately. Helps us make the most out of the good deals! And I can say that my mother taught me this as a young child! Lol

My SIL help me at CVS all the time she max out the finish deal for me on her card while I did the ALL deal on my card.

I haven't done this yet but if end up with more than I'm allowed to use in one trip I'll recruit DH to do a transaction as well. although he's not as anal as I am about watching the screen while things are ringing up/ Q's are scanned so I'm kinda scared to do this.

I do this with my hubby. Especially at the craft stores, the ones that only let you use one coupon per transaction. Not so much at the grocery stores. I don't need that much stuff in the stockpile.
