Gavin Connell, 12, of Islip, starting watching "Extreme Couponing" on TLC early last year. When his church needed donations of diapers, formula and wipes, he took what he learned from the show and headed to CVS. Every week for four months, Gavin and his mother collected coupons to buy the supplies and donated them to Fountainhead Congregation church ministry in East Northport.
