Would it be too weird if I listed couponing under my activities on resume?

Don't judge me. I do it to save money, but I still go out to bars and whatnot, but I could understand people may consider it weird or cheap, especially since it isnt bankeresque

If I was reviewing resumes, for an intern say, on the desk and I read this I'd think it was a bit weird. Not a certain no, but I'd be mentally preparing myself to meet an odd ball if it came to interview.

Yes it is too weird - not that you do it (whatever works for you) but is it REALLY an activity noteworthy enough to mention on your resume? Other people are going to but putting rock climbing, sunday league soccer, volunteering, etc. Couponing sounds awkward as shit next to those.

And on that note, if couponing is that big of a part of your life, you need to get a life

Maybe there is some kind of job out there where this is a favorable skill worth listing, but I reckon it'd be a weird thing to include for most job applications.
