That TV show is not reality. Several stores have admitted changing their coupon policies just for the taping of the show. The vast majority will not let you use 100 of the same coupon in the same day. If you Google "coupon fraud" you will find that some have been found using fake coupons on the show. At least one person was forced to pay back quite a lot of money over it.
Coupons.com
Redplum.com
Smartsource.com
All three are trusted sites. All three will require the coupon printer download to keep you from cheating and printing out a thousand of the same coupon. There are other trusted sites as well but beware any that require you to do a survey for a coupon. These are often just scams to get your contact info.
I suggest you make a Twitter account and a Facebook account. Many times companies will post special coupons on their Facebook pages and people who search for them will post on Twitter about them with links. I got a free Foldgers sample today that way. Search on Twitter with the hashtag #coupons and you will find people who do this. Much easier than searching through hundreds of sites yourself very day. Since many of the companies require you to "like" them you will need the Facebook page to do it. Some will ask to place apps on your Facebook page and post on it so if you already have a Facebook page you use regularly make a new one just for the coupons and freebies. Be aware that these special coupons and freebies are often gone in a heartbeat.

i also recommend another thought opening FB account and like the different companies account. They regularly post their deal too. Also they offer special deal for their FB friends.
