Mega Swagbucks Friday!!

Search & Win

It's Friday, which means MEGA SWAGBUCKS!! You can search and win Swagbucks each and every day, but on Friday you will have even more chances to win high value Swagbucks. If you have already signed up for Swagbucks, don't forget to do searches. If you have added the Swagbucks toolbar on your computer (which I highly encourage), search each site that you would normally go to in the Swagbucks search box. Instead of typing in the address or clicking on your favorites, simply type the site that you want to go to in your Swagbucks toolbar...you will still get to the site you want to go to, but you'll have added chances of earning Swagbucks at the same time. Those Swagbucks really add up, and remember, it only takes 450 Swagbucks to earn a $5.00 Amazon gift card. Have you checked out the Swag Store to see what prizes you can earn? My favorite category is the gift cards...you can win gift cards to Amazon, Target, Starbucks, Barnes and Noble, Sephora, JC Penney, The Bass Pro Shop, Lowes and so many more!!

If you haven't signed up, it is COMPLETELY FREE, and so easy to start earning prizes. If you are interested in signing up, go here or click on the banner below. Remember, it is completely free, and you will receive 30 Swagbucks just for signing up!

Thanks A Thrifty Mom!

Two FREE Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs!!


You can sign up to receive two completely FREE compact fluorescent lightbulbs mailed to you (no shipping). I signed up for this earlier today and there was not even a spot to fill out for payment, so it really is free. This is taken straight from the Energy Efficient Now website:

"Sign up with Energy Efficient Now to participate in The Free Lightbulb Initiative and receive two free Compact Fluorescent (CFL) Lightbulbs! These low-consumption lightbulbs are environmentally friendly, using only 25% of the electricity consumed by incandescent (traditional) lightbulbs. Save the environment and save big money on your electrical bill at the same time (Approximately 30$ per bulb - We're saving you 60$ in addition to the cost of the lightbulbs!)"

If you are interested in signing up for this offer, go here!

Thanks Getcha Coup On!

Coupon for $0.50 off Imperial Sugar


GREAT coupon available for $0.50 off any 4 lb. or 5 lb. bag of Imperial Sugar. Coupons for baking goods (flour/sugar) are sometimes hard to come by, so I would DEFINITELY print this out. I'm not sure how much this normally costs, but I'm thinking that if you wait until sugar goes on sale at Albertsons, and use this coupon (which will be doubled), you should be able to get a pretty GREAT deal!! You should be able to print this coupon off twice per computer. Go here if you are interested in printing it.

Thanks Common Sense With Money!

Coupon Confession

We have had quite a bit going on this week. My oldest son, Josh, turns 9 on Saturday, but we will be camping this weekend, so we decided to have a small birthday dinner for him tonight. I ran to Wal-Mart this morning to pick up some last minute items to decorate his birthday cake and some supplies for the camping trip. I got my three year old, Jacob, all buckled up and headed out to the store. I pulled into Wal-Mart and realized that I left my coupon binder at home!! UGH!! I debated going home, but with so much on my to do list, I decided to shop with...GASP...NO COUPONS!! I think that is the first time I've shopped without coupons since I got serious about couponing in December. It was definitely hard for me to pay full price. Luckily I had done most of my shopping earlier in the week, so I only had to pick up odds and ends and some produce. Those items sure do add up quickly though. So that is my confession...even an avid coupon shopper has days when she pays full price!! :)

Coupons that Will Expire Tomorrow

I just wanted to remind you that tomorrow is the end of April, and that means that quite a few of the coupons from the newspaper will be expiring. Before you throw all of them out, I thought I should highlight a couple of them that will get you FREE items if you run to the store tomorrow.



-Save $1.00 on any size Tide Detergent
I usually save these coupons up hoping to find a GREAT deal, but if there aren't any good deals during the month, I use these to get FREE travel size Tide Detergent right before they expire. These are priced around $0.99 at Wal-Mart and Target. These are great for traveling (of course), but would also make cute fillers to put in baskets/care packages to send to college students. These packages hold enough detergent for one load, so not much...but I'd rather get one load free than throw a stack of coupons away that will get me FREE items that can be used or donated.

Save $1.50 on any one Vicks Product
The coupon specifically says ANY Vicks product. You can find Vicks Cough Drops for around $1.00 at most drug stores and grocery stores. Again, these would be great to stock up on or donate to others.

At the end of the month when you start going through your old coupons, don't automatically throw them all away...think outside the box and you might be able to score some FREE items!!

Coupon for $1.00 off Del Monte Fruit Chillers


My boys absolutely LOVE these, but I think I like them even more than they do. I am a HUGE popsicle fan. These are GREAT for summer time treats!! Go here to print off a coupon for $1.00 off one. Oh, and there doesn't seem to be a limit of 2 per computer, so you should be able to print off quite a few. These are normally priced around $2.00 at Wal-Mart, so a good deal even without a sale!
It is the end of the month, and that means that the coupons on online sites will be changing. If you are interested in any of the coupons that are available now, you should go ahead and print them. They might not be there starting May 1st, or the coupons might reset on May 1st and you'll have the chance to print them again. Don't go crazy and print off all the coupons (you'll waste paper and ink), but I would suggest looking through the sites and printing off any coupons that you KNOW you'll use, and also any high value coupons that could get you very cheap to FREE products. Here are the top three that I would suggest looking at:

Coupons.com

Redplum.com

Smartsource.com

Another Walgreens Trip (April 28)

We are going camping this weekend, and my husband asked me if I'd go out and buy stuff to make s'mores. Of course, I went straight to my coupon binder, but couldn't find any coupons for those items. I was dreading going to Wal-Mart and spending probably around $6 - $8 for marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolate. (When your grocery budget is tight, those extras can really take a bite out of it). Yesterday I went to Walgreens for jelly and was able to get several bags of items for less than the cost of one bottle of jelly at Wal-Mart, so I decided to see if I could do the same today...buy fixin's for S'mores for less. I started out the morning with $7 in register rewards. I bought everything pictured below, and spent...



$1.20!!

I had to do 4 different transactions to make this work. The cashier was so friendly and commented several times about what a smart way to shop. It's all about coupons and rolling your register rewards.

Here's how I did this deal (and if you have some of the same coupons, you can do the deals too!!):

Transaction #1
-1 package of Stayfree Maxi Pads $2.99 (this generates a $3 Register Reward)
minus coupon for $2.00 off any Stayfree product (found in 3/28 RedPlum insert)
-1 bottle of Neutrogena Foundation Clearance for $3.49
minus coupon for $3.00 off any Neutrogena Cosmetic product (found in April All You magazine)
-1 Cadbury Egg Clearance for $0.25
-4 Bars of Dial Soap Clearance for $0.50
PLUS I used a $2.00 Register Reward from yesterday's trip.
Final Cost: $0.25 (PLUS I received an additional $3 Register Reward)

Transaction #2
-Plackers Dental Flossers (90 ct.) $2.00 (this generates a $2.00 Register Reward)
minus coupon for $0.50 off any Plackers Product (found in 4/18 RedPlum insert)
-Walgreens Paper Plates (72 ct.) $0.99
(needed these for the camping trip)
-Walgreens Plastic Spoons (24 ct.) $0.99
(needed these for the camping trip)
PLUS I used $3.00 Register Reward from Transaction #1
Final Cost: $0.52 (PLUS I received an additional $2 Register Reward)

Transaction #3
-Stayfree Maxi Pads $2.99 (this generates a $3 Register Reward)
minus coupon for $2.00 off any Stayfree product (found in 3/28 RedPlum insert)
-1 can Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup $0.99
minus in ad coupon to make this $0.69
4 bars of Dial Soap Clearance for $0.50
PLUS I used $2.00 Register Reward from Transactin #2
Final Cost: $0.18 (PLUS I received an additional $3 Register Reward)

Transaction #4
-1 package of Kraft Jet Puffed Marshmallows $1.99
-1 box of Nabisco Honey Maid Graham Crackers $3.99
-1 package of Hershey's Chocolate Bars (6 ct.) $3.01
minus in store deal where if you buy graham crackers and Hershey's chocolate bars, you get marshmallows for FREE
-1 2 liter Mtn. Dew $1.25
PLUS I used $5 Register Reward from doing the Hallmark Card deal earlier in the week, AND the $3 Register Reward from Transaction #3
Final Cost: $0.25

I spent a total of $1.20, and saved $43.64!! What can you do with your register rewards?

New Classico Coupon


The coupon for Buy one Classico Pasta Sauce, Get one FREE is now gone...the high value coupons tend to go very quickly...so if you see one that you think you might use, you need to print it off as fast as you can.

The good news is that coupons.com seems to have replaced this coupon with another pretty high value one...$1.50 off any 2 Classico Pasta Sauces. Not as good as the buy one get one free coupon, but definitely one that you don't see very often. Once again, I don't think this one will last long, so if you are interested go ahead and go here to print it off now.

Thanks Hip 2 Save!

Walgreens...is it really worth it?

I cannot count the number of times that people have told me that shopping at stores like Walgreens and CVS just isn't worth it. The main thing people say to me is that prices are SO much higher than at other stores. I have to admit, that for regular, nonsale items that this is true, but once you learn how to match the ads with coupons, and learn how to roll your register rewards and extra care bucks, you will be AMAZED at how much money you can save.

This morning I realized that we were completely out of jelly. I looked all over for some good coupons, and came up with nothing that would make for a GREAT deal. I decided to head over to Walgreens to pick up some jelly. The challenge I set for myself was to see just how much I could get at Walgreens for what one bottle of jelly would cost at Wal-Mart.

I bought everything pictured below, and spent...

$1.19!! (Jelly typically runs between $1.50 and $2.00 at Wal-Mart).

I bought:
-2 packages of Stayfree maxi pads
-2 bags of Plackers dental flossers (90 ct.)
-4 Reach toothbrushes
-1 roll of Scotch packaging tape
-2 bottles of Smuckers jelly
-1 can of Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup
-1 100 Grand candy bar
-3 rolls of Sweet Tarts (only 2 made it into the picture :)

The keys to shopping at Walgreens are:

1. ALWAYS check the ads
2. Match up sale prices with coupons
3. REGISTER REWARD DEALS!! REGISTER REWARD DEALS! REGISTER REWARD DEALS! (Can you tell that this is a big one...register rewards are basically like store cash, you can use these register rewards to purchase other things in the store).
4. Break your shopping trip up into different transactions...do a deal that will generate a register reward, then use this register reward to lower the cost of other things you need to buy.
5. Start small...stores like Walgreens and CVS won't make much sense to you until you go in and try some deals for yourself. If you are just starting out, go in with the thought that you are going to do just 2 transactions...the first transaction will be something that will generate a register reward, and the second transaction will be using this register reward to buy items that you might need (or better yet, items that will generate even more register rewards!!)

Classico Coupon Reset!!

Several days ago, I posted about the Classico coupon found on coupons.com, for buy one Classico Red Pasta Sauce, get one White Pasta Sauce FREE. I printed these off when I first posted about this deal, but I just looked on coupons.com to see if they had posted any new coupons...and that coupon is back...which means that it has RESET!! I would go ahead and print this coupon off now, since it probably won't last long.

Classico pasta sauce is priced at $1.93 at Wal-Mart...so after the coupon $0.96 each!!

Coupon for $0.70 off any Pillsbury Crescent Rolls



Another high value coupon...$0.70 off any one Pillsbury Crescent Rolls. This is a VERY high value Pillsbury coupon; coupons for this product are usually $0.40 off of 2, so I am thinking that this coupon won't last long. If you are interested in printing this coupon off, head over here. The smaller packages go on sale quite a bit at HEB and Albertsons for a dollar, and I'm guessing that they are usually priced close to that at Wal-Mart, so only $0.30 after coupon!! Last night I didn't feel like cooking, so I pulled some of these out and filled them with ham and cheese and baked them...didn't really count as cooking, but felt good to get something hot in the children's bellies. :)

Thanks Couponing to Disney!

Coupon for $1.50 off Keebler Wheatables



Another GREAT coupon to print. This coupon is good for $1.50 off any Keebler Wheatables...my husband LOVES these. He can seriously go through a box in a matter of minutes!! These crackers have been price cut at Wal-Mart to $1.98, so $0.48 after coupon. I'm not sure if these are still price cut, but I'd hang onto this coupon because it should get you a box for around $0.50 VERY easily. Remember, with all bricks coupons the print limit is 2 per computer. Go here if you are interested in printing this coupon.

Thanks Hip 2 Save!!

Challenge Results (Week 3)

I was cleaning out my wallet (it was stuffed FULL of receipts), and I realized that the reason it was so full is because I never took out my receipts from last week...and that made me realize that I never posted the results of week three of my April challenge. For those of you who don't know what the challene was...I challenged myself to save more than ever with my family's grocery budget...goal was at least 50% each week. Here are last week's results (this was supposed to be posted on Wednesday...so almost a full week behind...sorry :)

Spent: $49.73

Saved: $145.37

That's a savings of about 75%!!

If you are just starting out, I would not set such a high goal...remember start small and watch it grow...shaving $5.00 off your weekly grocery budget doesn't seem like much, but over the course of a year, you'll have saved yourself $260!!

Just wanted to let you know that there are a LOT of coupons on coupons.com right now for pet food, litter, treats, etc. I have been printing off coupons from this site for a quite a while now, and I have never seen this many pet coupons at one time.

Hallmark Cards at Walgreens

Walgreens is running a promotion this week where if you buy 4 Hallmark cards you can get a $2.00 register reward, or if you buy 8 Hallmark cards, you can get a $5.00 register reward.

I ran there this morning and found some cute cards for kids priced at $0.49. Great little cards to throw in their lunch boxes to let them know how special they are to us and how much we believe in them.

I bought 8 of these cards ($3.92), and then received a $5.00 register reward...I had register rewards to help lower the cost of the cards...so I actually walked out of the store paying less than $0.10 for them...AND getting a $5.00 register reward. Even if you are starting out with NO register rewards, this is still a GREAT deal. Remember, if you do this deal, you can then take that $5.00 register reward that you'll earn and use it at Albertsons!!

Wal-Mart Price Match

When I was at Wal-Mart this morning, I was able to price match Lowe's ad to get a gallon of milk for $1.88...for those of you who are still not familiar with what things cost...$1.88 is a GREAT price. If you need milk, and you don't want to run to Lowe's to get it...don't forget that Wal-Mart will price match!!
