Trivia
This is based on the true story of three women: Robin Ramirez, Marilyn Johnson, and Amiko "Amy" Fountain. The details were first revealed after a Tuesday morning raid in July 2012 by the Phoenix Arizona Police Department. Included in the seizures were $25,000,000 worth of fake coupons, 22 assault weapons, and 21 vehicles including a 40 foot boat.

In February 2013, all three women pleaded guilty. Fountain and Johnson each pleaded guilty to one charge of counterfeiting. Ramirez pleaded guilty to counterfeiting, fraud, and illegal control of an enterprise. Ramirez was sentenced to 24 months in prison and seven years of probation. They were also ordered to pay Proctor & Gamble more than $1.2 million.

Goofs
The postal inspector tells Connie it's 1 year for every $100,000 earned fraudulently and that she's looking at 40 years. In a later scene, another postal service worker says they stole 40 million in counterfeit coupons. $100,000 x 40 is 4 million not 40 million. (Edit: The inspector actually says 40 to life, which would be correct since 400 years would be to life)

Quotes
Woman on Plane: Hey sorry, uhm, would you mind if we switched seats, just for this last part? She really likes to watch out the window as we land and it helps calm her down.
Ken: Yeah no, even if I wanted to switch, I think it's more important that your daughter learn a valuable lesson. That's not how the world works y'know. You don't always get your way.
[Resumes eating snacks and looking out the window]

Funny and highly original story and plot, has a good mix of caracter actors, and as the kingpins do, does the queenpins too, namely dealing with drugs...

that you can get for free in the american supermarkets if you get stoned with a piece of paper and a scissor, only with a twisted scheme of crime so easy and still so inovative that none agencies except for the police force of the u.s. Postal services does consider it as a crime to be.

This is lighthearted comedy with a plotstory that may be copycatted on the home office copy machine, so you better watch out cause they will catch you if they can.just forget about the lifetime-feel youll get in the start of the movie, it gets good in just a while, therefore a recommend from the grumpy old man.
