Coupons.com Names Top Frugalebrities
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Rich and famous are adjectives that often go hand in hand to describe
celebrities, but that doesn't mean stars don't know the importance of
spending their money wisely. Plenty of celebrities are
frugalebrities and are proud of their savvy shopping habits and
financial prowess.
"Celebrities may be thought of as living lavish lifestyles but the truth
is, like most of us, many stars love a good bargain," said Jeanette
Pavini, Coupons.com
Household Savings Expert. "Whether it's shopping around for a deal,
clipping coupons or being smart with their spending, these
'frugalebrities' know the value of a buck."
So without further adieu, Coupons.com
names its top frugalebrities of 2011.
-
Sarah Michelle Gellar - TV's former Buffy the Vampire Slayer
and current star of Ringer uses coupons for everything from her groceries
to her dry cleaning, stating "I
clip coupons all the time. Why should you pay more for something
that someone else is paying less for?"
-
Manny Delgado - We don't know if actor Rico Rodriguez is a
super saver in real life, but his Modern Family TV counterpart
Manny Delgado recently took the blame when his dog fell in the pool
and said,
"I got caught up in my couponing."
-
Halle Berry - The beautiful Bond girl doesn't take her riches
for granted, saying
she's "pretty frugal" and always saving for a rainy day.
-
Hilary Swank - Hilary may be a big star but that doesn't mean
she's too good for big box stores. The A-lister knows
that a penny saved is a penny earned and believes in buying
essentials, like toilet
paper and toothpaste, in bulk. She also said she sees coupons as
"a dollar in my pocket."
-
Roy Hibbert - When he's not busy putting up free throws, the
Indiana Pacers center likes looking for other freebies. The 7-foot-2
NBA star says
he tries to live modestly, clipping coupons and looking for deals when
dining out. "Going to restaurants, I make sure if I have a coupon, I
use it."
-
Kourtney Kardashian - A recent episode of Kourtney & Kim
Take New York showed
that the oldest of the three reality show sisters had taken up a new
hobby: couponing!
-
Renee Zellweger - Renee Zellweger hasn't let the Hollywood
lifestyle overshadow her upbringing. While she may command
multi-million dollar paychecks now, the star says,
"I was raised in a household where we were very frugal."
-
Tim Hasselbeck - ESPN analyst and former NFL quarterback Tim
Hasselbeck knows that real men save money. Tim's wife, and co-host of The
View, Elisabeth Hasselbeck proudly admits that she "married
a coupon guy," and is thankful for that.
-
Caroline Channing - Former rich girl, and one of CBS's 2
Broke Girls, Caroline Channing went from coupon snob to coupon
convert in a recent episode.
But she's still not sure, is the money-saving word pronounced "COO-pon"
or "CUE-pon?"
-
Nicole Scherzinger - The ex-X Factor judge and lead Pussycat
Doll isn't afraid to cop to the occasional splurge but says
she makes up for them by always hunting for the best bargains at the
grocery store.
