Wow! I've been on such a break, but am trying to dive back into serious couponing. I've been trying to eat a lot of stuff from our stockpile and it's been nice. However, the stockpile has seriously dwindled - really low on (or out of) lots of items. So it's time! I spend yesterday grocery shopping LOL I don't have time right now for the full breakdown, but the best deal of the day had to be

Ran into Walgreens Tuesday afternoon and took advantage of the glitch on the Dove RR. Did two identical transactions of 3 single Dove soap bars, on sale for 99¢ with in-ad coupon. Each transaction was $3.15 after tax and produced a $6 RR. Tried it again on Wednesday morning, but no RR printed. I'm very glad I was able to get in on it. Working on the Hormel Compleats stockpile... Went to Park

I did make a second trip to CVS this week. My mother asked if anyone had Cokes on sale because she was almost out of Vanilla Cokes. No one did, but I had a rain check to get Coke 12-packs 5/$13 at CVS so I hit the store most likely to have that many Vanilla Cokes. Somewhere along the way I realized that I needed foundation, and since I'm brand-loyal and CVS had L'oreal on sale, I decided to

There really wasn't a whole lot I wanted from CVS this week; however, we were running low on paper towels and since we like the Scott paper towels, I decided to use some ECB and replenish the stockpile. So here's what I got: (6) 6-roll packages Scott paper towels, $5.00 each -$5 off $25 CVS email coupon -(4) $1.00 coupons, 8/14 SS (I think is was SS, but it could have been RP. I used all of

I haven't done much shopping this week, which is good since that means less money spent! I was able to run in Kroger on Tuesday morning and got a beef roast and a pork roast out of the Manager's Specials. I was pretty happy about that because I've been wanting roast but wouldn't buy it because the sales hadn't been really good lately. Thursday night I stopped in Waglreens and was able to get

Tomorrow is DOUBLE COUPONS at SuperValu!!! EVERY Wednesday we double coupons up to 50¢. There is NOT a limit on how many coupons we will double in each transaction. We'd love to see you tomorrow!!!I'm not seeing much in the ad that excites me to go with this. However, since this is a Charmin Sensitive household, I'll probably break out a couple of 25¢ Charmin coupons to pair with the $6.49 sale.

Go here or here to print 50¢ off one Scotch-Brite Botanicals Disinfecting Wipes. As with most Scotch Brand coupons, these are PDF so you can print more than one! The second link also has a Buy 3, Get 1 of Them Free Mail-in Rebate. If your Walmart has them priced at $1.62, this could make for a pretty good deal. Of course, if Kroger would have them for a good price the coupons would double...

First, I just want to say I'm not trying to bash "extreme" couponers. I think most extreme couponers are doing what I used to do (and am working towards doing again). I used to like to be called an extreme couponer; however, since the show came out it has taken on such a negative connotation with so many people that I'm not sure it's how I want to be perceived. You walk in the store with your

So the hubby & I were in Office Depot last weekend and I stumbled across a great clearance deal. Lysol Clean-Flip Sweeper Starter Kits (Swiffer type thing LOL) were $2.00 and the dry cloth refill 16 ct boxes were $1.00. Since I've been wanting to replace my slightly beaten-up Swiffer, I was very pleased. They had 3 of the Clean-Flip starter sets so I made a couple of calls and discovered that

I realize I've been out of the loop for awhile, but I got a nice surprise when I checked out at Kroger Thursday. Stopped in to get a few things we needed (like meat, veggies... LOL) and a few good deals since I had my 7/31 P&G (love that it comes out on Wednesday in the Mayfield Messenger).One of the things I picked up was the free Crest toothpaste since it's on sale for $1.00 and there were 50¢

I have to dig out my receipts and take pictures. My OOP for this sale has been more than I was planning to spend, but with 6 pack RC products (RC, Diet Rite, Sundrop, A&W, Sunkist, Big Red) (16.9 oz bottles) for 99¢, we have stocked up on several kinds! My hubby, son & I had to be in Mayfield and Paducah yesterday, so we all purchased soft drinks since there's a limit of 4 6-packs. 1 stop in

So this week (Wed 7/27 - Tues 8/2) at Food Giant, they have a few P & G trial size items for $1.00 each and there just happen to be corresponding coupons to make them free or really cheap!I've stopped in a few times so far... :)Cascade Action Tabs, 4 ct, $1.00 use $1.00 off any Cascade item, P&G 7/3 or 8/1 (P&G comes out in the Mayfield Messenger on the Wednesday before so already have

While most things I got at Walgreens this week weren't free, I did get some pretty good deals. I stopped by Thursday and did 3 transactions, for a total of $13.98. I started with $6 RR and ended with none. However, I did run back in tonight and grab 3 boxes of Splenda with Fiber, used (3) $3.00 coupons so I got them free and got back $4 RR. So... I do have RR to start with next time. :)

I was very happy when I stopped by the Mayfield Walmart one morning and discovered they did, in fact, have Nivea Body Wash for $3.00. I used my coupons and my mom gave me hers, for 18¢ (tax only) per bottle, I thought it was a pretty good deal!

Very briefly, for dog food. It's so hard to get really good deals on dry dog food. We used to use Ol' Yeller from Kroger, but the price went up and our dogs really don't seem to like it as well, so we're buying more Ol' Roy from Walmart. When I was in the dog food aisle, I noticed there were bonus size bags of Purina Dog Chow & I had a coupon, so the price was really close to the Ol' Roy. I

That's a good thing, because that means I haven't spent a lot this week! Had to stop at CVS on Wednesday and grab a couple gallons of milk. Spent $4.98 on milk and a couple dollars on stuff I found on clearance for my hubby.I also ran to CVS & Big John's last Saturday. Big John's to get some ground beef because I saw on Mandy's Frugal Journey that they had it on sale. Also grabbed some

But since YOU (and very few others) know the reason I know you forgive me. And, as soon I find last Saturday's Kroger receipt, I'm going to blog it. Hopefully, I will also have a couple of really good trips from the current Mega Sale to put on here soon!

I sooo didn't realize it had been almost 2 months since I posted! I've pretty much been doing the bare necessities of shopping and couponing - it's so sad!

Since I needed to do a little shopping today I decided to go to Murray so I could do a deal or two at Rite Aid. I'm still getting the hang of stacking all the store coupons with the manufacturer's coupons, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.I did 2 transactions today:Transaction #1Purchased(6) pkg Noxema Disposable Razors, $1.99 ea(1) Maybelline Great Lash, $3.11(1) 18 ct Playtex

Since the closest Rite Aid is in Murray and it takes about 35 minutes to get there, I hadn't been shopping Rite Aid. However, I had been wanting to get started and decided since I had the time yesterday (Saturday 9/4) I was going to make a trip to Murray to hit Rite Aid & the thrift stores.I didn't use my usual grocery & drug store money for this trip. I had been given a little extra money from

I had a great CVS (Southside) trip Saturday night! I'll give you all the details later, but here's one to be on the lookout for. Listerine Total Care is on sale (I think $3.99) and producing $2 eb this week and there are several $1.00 coupons out there. That's not the best part though; I found the Cinnamint flavor clearance tagged for $1.24 and it is producing the $2 eb. That makes it 24

So Tuesday afternoon when I ran in Kroger to do my last P&G transaction (the one I didn't blog because I don't have the receipt with me LOL), I discovered Nature Valley Granola Bars & Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks on clearance. Hello? Can you say brand new Mega Event? Tuesday is our overlap day - new sales starting Wednesday have usually started and sales ending Tuesday are still good. So after I

I actually made another trip and did another P & G transaction with 8 items, and a couple of General Mills transactions but didn't take pictures & don't have the receipts with me.

Looks like we should have internet at home sometime in the next few weeks providing everything goes well. Please let the telephone company not have any issues when they get there to install it!Once that happens I hope to be able to stay on top of the deals much better and blog much more often again - Here's hoping!!!

I keep reading about all the problems people are having with their Kmart stores and the super doubles and have to say that the 2 trips I've made to Paducah Kmart have been so great! Sunday night I stopped in and checked at customer service & the lady working explained it to me so nicely and then I had very smooth transactions checking out.Last night when I checked out the cashier was just amazed

Had such a good trip to Walgreens! I went in to get toothbrushes, Nestle Crunch & John Frieda Hair products - quite the combination. Since the hubby & son were with me I also ended up getting a couple of clearance items. Here's what I left with:6 Nestle Crunch Candy Bars @ 2/$1.59 - (6) BOGO coupons, rang in at 89¢ each - Walgreens in-ad coupon, deducted $1.836 pkgs Reach toothbrushes 3/$9.00;

So, after hearing that Kmart Super Doubles were coming next month, but knowing that our Kmart hasn't participated the last several times it was going on, I emailed Kmart yesterday. Here's the response I received..."Thank you for contacting Kmart regarding the Kmart Double Coupon Event. We appreciate your interest in this promotion. This event is for select participating Kmart locations from 4/4-

I love that CVS gives rainchecks, but what I really love is that when you have a raincheck for an item that was giving Extra Bucks, the computer rounds up to the next whole dollar. In December, CVS had ThermaCare wraps for $2.49 (which is the regular price) get $2.49 EB. Naturally, they were out every time I looked that week, so I got a rain check. As I'm redeeming part of the rain check last

Because isn't that the happening place on Saturday night? Here's the thing, we were almost out of Cokes & we are (ok, some of us are) addicted to Cokes, so this is not a good situation. However, I refused to by them until our CVS started this week's sale. So, off to CVS for our 7 cartons of Coke products...Purchased:6 cartons of Coca-Cola1 carton Nestea Iced TeaUsed:(1) $1.00/2 "peelie" coupon (

Real as in I managed to get my list & coupons somewhat organized! And it felt soooo good! Wasn't my best Kroger trip ever, but it was $105.38 before coupons and $53.07 after so I was feeling pretty good, especially since part of it was for my mother so after she paid me I only ended up with $43.07 OOP. Thought I still had my receipt in my purse so I could post it while I'm online here at the

I am very brand-loyal when it comes to peanut butter and Walgreen's has it for $2.00 this week. So, I stopped on the way here to see if they had any left, especially the crunchy kind since my son goes through it like crazy. One jar of crunchy left on the shelf so I grabbed it and a jar of regular and was going to check out when the light bulb went off in my head. 2 jars peanut butter = $4.00,

Isn't that where everybody wants to be? I went to take advantage of the P&G sale with the coupons I had expiring that night. I've been meaning to blog it ever since but I keep forgetting to bring my Kroger receipt so I'm trying to do it from memory so I'm sure to forget something (inlcuding prices)...

Work on the new (ok, new to us but older than both of us) house is moving along, thanks largely to my very handy dad and some very generous friends! I'm so ready to be settled in and have internet access where I live instead of having to come to the library. My couponing is suffering; I'm finding it so much harder to stay organized when I can't hop online to check on things and don't have a lot

So sad :(But there is light at the end of the tunnel! We're in the process of trying to buy a house (pray, pray, pray!) but we had to be out of the one we were renting so now we're in temporary quarters. The good news is we should (barring anymore unhappy surprises) be closing on our new place in the next week or so. Until we close and move, I'm hoping to at least be able to make it to the

Okay, maybe not, but our internet at home is down! So, here I am at the library trying to catch up on several days worth of deals. We don't know when our internet is going to be fixed :( so I'm hoping to make it back to the library in another day or two. Had some awesome trips to Mayfield Wags in addition to the one I posted already, as well as an incredible Kroger trip last night (went

It's just been an incredibly busy week; I managed to go to CVS Wednesday because I had $10 EB expiring that day. I'll post it in a few minutes. I went to Kroger yesterday (spent almost $50; only saved 65% - I know that's not a bad number at all, really...) and I've already managed to lose my receipt. I'll try to find it and post. Tomorrow I have to hit Walgreens and stock up on $2.50

that I had no problems with the Mayfield Walgreens adjusting my $4.00 Air Wick coupon down to $3.99. The bad news is they were out of the compact i-Motions & only had 3 of the scented oil i-Motions. The very bad news is - I was inconsiderate enough to buy the last 3 scented oil i-Motions. Of course, there is still good news because Walgreens does issue rain checks! :)

After seeing several reports that there were $2.00 Nestle candy (24 oz or larger) coupons, $2.00 Wonka (24 oz or larger) candy coupons & the 50¢ Starkist Pouch coupon was back - all on coupons.com - I decided to check it out.

Saw this on Who Said Nothing in Life Is Free and checked on the prices at the Mayfield Walgreens this afternoon. The Compact Airwick i-Motions as well as the Scented Oil i-Motions are in the 50% off sale this week making them $3.99. There were $4.00 coupons for these in the 9/13 & 10/11 Smart Source inserts.

I had the chance to spend the day running around with a really good friend yesterday; she needed a few things from Kroger while we were out & I planned to get some deals that I needed (wanted) while I was there. We both ended up not being able to find coupons we thought we had, the clearance aisle was mostly bare, it just wasn't the trip we were hoping for but I still managed to spend $4.78...

We haven't needed a lot this week; I've been to Wal-Mart three times for non-grocery items, went to Kroger Tuesday because I was right there and had a few minutes to run in & check the clearance. Yesterday I had the chance to spend the day with a friend and we hit Old Navy to use my 25% off coupon I found Thursday when the coupons reset and I ran in Kroger with her because she needed a few thing

I've had several people ask what coupon clipping services I use to obtain multiples of insert coupons and how these services work. So far I have used the following services with absolutely no problems. All of them have had very quick shipping so that I can order on Monday or Tuesday & have the coupons before the end of the week.Please remember because coupons can't be sold, with all these sites

These are for the diffusers & the 10 oz candles only. As of Saturday night, these coupons were still available at the Park Avenue Kroger; however, I have changed my advice on where to use them. While Kmart had the best prices I had found ($4.99 through 10/12), while in the Southside Lowe's Saturday I noticed they had the diffusers & the 10 oz candles in 2 fragrances for $4.27 each. This is

Stumbled across the half-price Lysol products while I was there so I go some really good deals.

Since I was in town this evening I ran in Kroger at Hannan Plaza to get some more Bumblebee Tuna Packets (using the recent 55¢ coupons - makes the 2.5 oz packets free) and some more Lysol cleaning products. Yesterday I printed Lysol coupons from homesolutionsnews.us, the Reckitt Benckiser (Lysol) website. As with most printable coupons, I was able to print 2 copies of each coupon from my

Total $1.73, and I got back a $3.00 catalina for my next beef or chicken purchase - Awesome!Went in later to actually get a few things:1 pkg Kroger Sloppy

So here's the deal; I have tried many face washes that I've gotten free or close to free. But, there's one that Olay makes that works better than anything else and the only place to buy it in this area is Wal-Mart - who knew! Also, there were some very, very sad looking men's underwear that kept showing up in my laundry basket - so, off to Wally World... Looking for my receipt; not having much

Which should equal less money spent but I don't think that's how it's gonna work this week. Hmmm...Our church has been having revival services and since I do play the piano I figured that meant I should go...lol. Leave the house around 7:30 am, take my son to school, go to work, pick him up between 3:50 & 4:00 (usually), come home, supper, shower, get ready & be at church by 6:45ish, home

I posted here a couple of days ago about another upcoming Mega Event at Kroger, so today I looked at the ad coming out for the Southeast tomorrow. I'm sure Southern Savers will have more tomorrow after she finds additional items at the store that aren't listed in the ad, but I was just too anxious...LOLProducts & pricing will vary some from their region to ours, but it's usually pretty close.

Go here and share how your child did on his or her first back to school to enter to win a $50 Hallmark Gold Crown Gift Card. I could spend $50 at Hallmark soooo quickly! Thanks, Common Sense With Money!

Go here to enter the Swiffer WetJet Giveaway at Mommy Snacks. Maybe I'll hold off buying one; free is certainly better than the $10.00 or so I figured I would have to spend!

I joined Swagbucks, a search & win site a few months ago and have been fairly happy with the results; however, the new toolbar that they put out for download this month has made such a difference! When you download the toolbar, you also get a free swagcode every day during September. And the toolbar is so easy to use! Since I downloaded it, instead of typing a web address in my navigation bar,

I read so many posts about the deals to be had in stores we don't have in our area and I try so hard not to be envious. I'm thinking I should start a savings jar for a trip to Nashville to hit Publix & Target. Have I completely lost my mind? Could I pay attention & work the deals well enough to really make it worthwhile? Hmmm, gonna have to think about this one...
