I want to see how many people read my blog...

I am so glad we have the first month of school under our belt. I can finally get back to my couponing. I have been shopping alot this weekend. I wanted to get in and use my August coupons before they expired. I did pretty well, I think so at least. So, I want to see who reads my blog, so I am having a contest to see. I am posting a picture of what I got at Publix Friday night. The person that guesses how much I spent at Publix, gets a box of Ritz crackers. This is what is in my picture in case you can't see it all.
12 boxes of State Fair corn dogs
1 gallon of milk
2 packs of ID gum
2 jars of pnuts
2 jars of Kraft mayo
2 bottles of Kraft salad dressing
3 boxes of CapriSun juice boxes
3 cans of Bushs Baked Beans
9 boxes of  Ritz crackers
2 big bottles of Heinz ketchup
9 bottles of Herbal Essance Shampoo
2 small cans of cresant rolls

I hope to see your guesses real soon!

It is the end of the school year and I am one busy lady! Sorry for the delay in post here. There have not been alot of good deals lately, but here are the ones I have found for this week.
Publix has Kraft bbq sauce bogo this week for $1.59 and there was a coupon in the smart source on 5/8 for $1 off 2. That makes it .59 for 2 bottles of bbq sauce, good deal in my book. I am making meatballs for my nephews graduation party tomorrow night, so this is a perfect price for me! I will not be going to Publix for this though, I will save my gas and price match at WalMart this week.
I also saw that Wags has Purex Ultra Packs for $2.49. A few weeks ago we got some coupons in the mail with the pizza coupons and there was a coupon for $1 off purex ultra packs. This makes for some cheap washing detergent, and I actually really like these packs they are mess free and no guessing how much detergent to use, it is prepackaged for single use. You can also price match these at WalMart, like I will be. The wags in Monroe did not have any more on the shelf so you will have to either get a rain check or price match them if you want them now.
Next week at CVS they have Ocean Spray Juice, 64 oz, B1G1 and on http://www.coupons.com/ they have a bogo coupon for the Ocean spray juice. That makes 2 free, and if you print 2 coupons, you get 4 free.
This week at Family Dollar they have Pepsi 2 liters for .88. On 4/29  there was a coupon for .55 off Pepsi next in the Pepsico Moments coupon booklet. So .33 for a 2 liter isn't so bad, another stock up item for my nephews graduation party. You guessed it, I will not be going to FD either, I will be price matching this too.
Hopefully my post will come more frequently in another week when we are out of school. Have a great night and thanks for reading!

Wanted to pop in for a minute and tell you about some good weekend deals. At Toys R Us today you can snag some Crayola crayons 16 count for 4/$1.. I have already heard they do not have any at our Athens store, so I price matched it at WalMart last night, and got 8 boxes of crayons for $2. awesome deal,  I will be saving some of these for the Operation Christmas Child boxes in November. When I can snag good deals like this I try to put them aside so when it comes time to make my shoe boxes I am not scrambling to find items to put in them, when I do that I seem to spend more money in a hurry. Planning for things like this is the best way for me.
Also, my friend Laura reported that Rite Aid this week has pillow pets(the big ones) on clearance for 75% off. I think she got 2 for less than the price of 1 pillow pet. If you are in need of a last minute birthday gift, this is a good one. My girls Love  theirs!
Another unadvertised deal that Laura found (I have turned her into a good deal finder lol) was at Walgreens this week they have bottles of Degree deodorant for $1. SO, if you are out and about even without a coupon this is a good deal. There are not any coupons for it at this time, but still a good one.
Hope you have a great weekend. I am off for some shopping and then to get the last bit of stuff made for my sister's baby shower tomorrow! Enjoy the beautiful weather!

This weeks deals I found

I hope you have enjoyed this week and the rain we got on Wednesday. There is only one insert this week and that is a Smart Source.
There are a few deals I want to tell you about this week, I hope you can get to the stores before the sales are over. Or, just go to WalMart and price match them all.
In last weeks paper there was a coupon for $2 off Nivea, and this week at Dollar General it is on sale for $2.50. You can score some bodywash for 50 cents, awesome deal!
Another deal I saw this week is at Walgreens. If you go to Family Dollar and look by the Lysol products in the back, there is a coupon for $1 off Lysol toilet cleaner, then you can use it at Walgreens to get the cleaner for 50 cents. It is on sale for $1.50 - the $1 coupon, = cheap toilet cleaner. This is another deal you can price match at WalMart if you are going there.
At walgreens they have Disney gummy vitamins on clearance for $3.49, and there is a coupon for
$1 off Marvel or Disney gummy vitamins, 60 ct.+, RP 3/04 (exp 04/25)
 this makes for some cheap vitamins and they are gummies, so that makes it even better! I hope you can make it to the store this week to score some of these deals.

This weekend there will be 3 inserts in the AJC. 1 Red Plum and 2 Smart Source. If  you don't get the paper on Saturday evening, then go to the gas station on Sunday morning on your way to church and get the double paper.
If you are not already a Publix shopper now is the time to start. On Thursdays if you spend $10 before coupons you can get a select item for 1cent. Some Publix require you to have the coupon from the ad, but some you can just tell them you want the Penny item. This week it is paper towels, you get a roll of paper towels for 1 cent. Even if you don't use them, you can get them and donate them to your church or local food pantry. F. I.S.H. In Monroe will always take any items like that. I also know for a fact that your child's classroom teacher would love to have paper towels. So even if you don't use them, get them, we can find someone that can use them.
I hope everyone had a great Easter, and enjoyed time with their families, I know I did!

Wal Mart trip today = sucess!


These are my deals from WalMart today. I had to go in to get all the stuff for the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, so I thought I would do some price matching while I was there instead of going to the other stores after I got all the cold stuff from WM. So here is what I did....
1.Eggs at Walgreens are $2/2.00. and there is a coupon for .55 off 2 on the FB page for eggs. Mine wouldn't print but Laura's did so I got her 2 dozen and me 2 dozen, but hers were cheaper bc she had the coupon and I didn't.
2. Nestle pull apart Easter cookies were $2.50 and there was a coupon in the Smart Source 3/25 for$1off1. So it made it $1.50 for a quick dessert to take to church on Sat for the egg hunt.
3. my girls wanted some dip to go with thier dinner and lunch tomorrow so I splurged and used no coupon but it was only $1.
4. This week at RiteAid they have Kelloggs cereal for $1.50 after the UP rewards, so I price matched at WM and used $1 off 2 boxes. So I got 2 boxes for $2. PLUS, on the cereal box there was a peelie for a free bag of M&M's when you buy 2 boxes, so for $6, I got 3 regular sized bags of M&M's and 6 boxes of Cocoa Krispies. We will go thru this in NO time, my kids LOVE cereal. This is a great deal so go get it while you can, it will only last till Saturday. I may see if I can find more coupons and get more of this deal, and donate the extras. (http://www.southernsavers/ has a printable for the cereal as well)
5.Trident gum I had a coupon from long ago that runs out tomorrow, and so I got this for the kids Easter baskets.
6.  Domino sugar is on sale at Walgreens this week 2/$5, so $2.50 each, so I price matched that and used a .40 cents off 1 x2. The coupon was from the Red Plum on 3/18. So I paid $2.10 for a bag of sugar, which is not great but not horrible either.
7. Bic silky touch 6 pack of disposable razors were $2.97 and I had a $2 off coupon from the Smart Source 3/18, so I bought 2 packs, for .97 cents each.
8. Purex laundry (18) tablets were $2.97 and I had a $1 off coupon from Red Plum 3/11. So, $1.97 for 18 loads of laundry is not too bad!
9. the little Easter eggs in the picture were $1 each and I used the $1 off 2 coupon from Red Plum 3/18, and I bought 6, they are also for the kids Easter baskets, don't tell.
Not included in the picture is a Coke, I was dying of thirst by the time I left, 1 Reeses pb egg, that was price matched from Wags for .39 cents. a happy lady from our church that I gave a Tetley coupon to, and the most wonderful 10 year old that helped me get all these great deals. We spent 2 hrs at Walmart, but not only for this , but for the egg hunt too.

Have you learned what my favorite drug store is yet? I love Walgreens, because they have great deals and there are really great people there. Have you gotten to know any of the people at your favorite store? I have... at Wags Tammy is the one I look for when I go in. She likes to show me the deals, and she is in charge of marking down the clearance. She works at the beauty counter and also likes to use coupons. Whenever I am in there I ask her what she is buying that day, usually she has a pile going and I see if I have any coupons to go with any of her items. WHY am I telling you this? It really helps to get to know the people at the stores you frequent, because they can point out the coupons in their ads and the coupon booklets that I could have overlooked. Also, if I am looking at something and waiting for it to go on sale, when it does go on sale, she lets me know. When she has new markdowns she lets me know. First thing I ask when I see her is, what kind of new markdowns do you have?... So, get to know the workers at the stores you shop at alot, it pays off.

 Ok so, for the newspaper this weekend, these are the inserts you will find in this Sundays paper...

This Sunday, 4/01, you will have (3) inserts in your Sunday newspaper.
Be on the lookout for:
(1) Proctor & Gamble
(1) RedPlum

(1) SmartSource
 

If you still have coupons that you have not used for this month, don't forget today is the last day to use March coupons. Alot of the printable coupons will be reset tonight, so if there are coupons on http://www.coupons.com/ that you want to print, you better do that today because they may not be there tomorrow. On the first, they put up new ones and take away old ones.
Have a great weekend, well whats left of it!
