Perhaps in decades to come "couplefew" could become a word. Stranger things have happened, "whithersoever" is three words jammed into one. "Couple few" is informal, but logical, "couple" implies two, "few" implies three, so a person might say "couple few" to imply that the quantity could be two or three. You could say "a couple or a few", but language seems to evolve to saying the same thing in a less complex manner.
