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!

Tomorrow is my last day of school for the next ten days, can I get a yahoo!!!! I am a little excited for some time off, can you tell?
I ran into Walgreens tonight to grab some pictures and of course I had to check out the orange tags aka clearance items. I found some good deals, I wasn' planning on shopping so I had left my coupons in the car, so I ran back out and got them. I found Oil of Olay body wash on clearance for $2.29, and they were also bogo 50% off, and then I had 2 $2 off coupons, so for both bottles of body wash I paid .81 cents, now this is my kinda deal. If you have the P&G insert for March that runs out this weekend, it might be worth you clipping that coupon out and running into Wags and getting some cheap body wash. I hardly ever get this good of a deal on body wash, so if you have coupons that you aren't using for Oil of Olay $2 off, pass them to me and i will definitely get some more. This is what I call a stock up price!
They also had Oral B kids toothbrushes on sale for .89 cents, which is a good price but out there somewhere are some coupons for them, I haven't been able to locate mine yet. SO this is a good deal if you have your coupons for those.
SO when you go into Walgreens this weekend look for the orange clearance tags, you might just find a great deal, and don't forget to take your coupons in with you!
happy shopping!

Today at http://www.coupons.com/ you can print a $2 off coupon for wisk detergent. At CVS this week it is on sale for $4.99 then if you take off the $2 printable, it makes the detergent $2.99. Which is not a bad deal, if you like Wisk.
Remember if you don't want to do CVS and you are at WalMart, you can price match this and get just as good a deal.
I also want to tell you about a few drug store sites that I use alot. http://www.iheartwags.com/ http://www.iheartcvs.com/
http://www.iheartriteaid.com/ If you go to theses sites at any time you can find the next weeks ad with the coupon matchups. If there is something I am running low on, like toilet tissue and I want to see who has it on sale next week, I go to all of these sites and find out where the best deal is, then I save the coupons for that sale and stock up on toilet paper. So, check them out sometime, you may find that you like them, I do!
Have a great night!

My favorite coupon site!

The weekend flew at my house, did it at yours? I cannot believe the whole weekend went by and I didn't step into a store to shop for myself. Well, I mean to coupon or snag a last minute deal. I would love to hear about your deals last week. Did you find a really good deal anywhere? I saw that Publix had some clearance Right Guard deodorant for $1.67. Right now if you go to http://www.southernsavers.com/ and click on the coupon datatbase in the right hand corner, you can look for a right guard coupon, and print the $2 off  2, they are only 67 cents each. which is not a horrible deal.
I use southernsavers alot, actually this is the site I use most often and get most of my info from. You can go there and search any store and they pretty much have it, with coupon matchups, and if there are printables. The lady that owns/runs the sight is a great Christian lady, who has three young girls. I like her sight more than any other coupon site. It is like a one stop site, sales, coupons and printables all in one.
Today if you go to http://www.coupons.com/ there is a coupon for $4/4 Kellogs cereals. I think you have to buy Corn Flakes, Rice Crispies,  or Raisin Bran, but if you like those cereals, then it makes for a great coupon. I used mine last week when the cereal was $1.77 at CVS, .77cents for a box of cereal is awesome!
Ok, well that is all I have for tonight, I pray you have a good week! Enjoy the beautiful weather God has blessed us with!

Thurs 3/22/12

Today has been an eventful day in my world. I am happy I was able to get in a quick walk with my sweet neighbor tonight.
I have listed the coupons that will be in the AJC this weekend. If you were not able to get something that was on sale I hope you got a raincheck. I like getting rainchecks because they give me time to find more coupons for the item. I hope to go to Publix before this weeks sale is over. They have a few things that I need.

Wed 3/21/12

Wednesday already... wow! Glad today is over, for sure! I didn't shop but I have some tips for you anyways. Did you know that you can use coupons at places like Dollar General and Family Dollar? They take any manufacturers coupons and they also take thier own coupons. So that means more savings for you, because you can stack them. Stacking means using one manufacturerers coupon and one store coupon. Alot of times you can go to the store website and they have coupons that you can print to use with the man. coupons. Also, you can look at the ads online, it may ask for your zip code or if you want to sign up for email alerts. If it is a store I go to on a regular basis I do sign up for emails because sometimes they send you coupons. But beware sometimes there are advertisements and spam that come along with those emails. AND just so you know the Dollar Tree and BigLots Do NOT accept Coupons, believe me I have asked 100 times! Happy Shopping.

Tues 3/20

So, today I didn't make it to any stores, but I still want to share a few things with you that will hopefully help you in your couponing world. Lots of people ask me where do you find your coupons, and here is the answer.
1. AJC (I buy at least 2 copies)
2. friends and family save them for me
3. internet printables (http://www.coupons.com/http://www.redplum.com/http://www.smartsource.com/ )
4. EBAY. yes EBAY!!! If I find a coupon in an insert that has a coupon that I think I will use and the deal is really good, then I will buy them on ebay. they are fairly cheap, make sure before you buy that you check the shipping, because some people charge an arm and a leg for shipping to make the money.
 Hopefully some of these tips help you when looking for coupons
ps. some people go to the newspaper recycling bins and look for them there, but I don't have that kind of time. :)

Monday 3/19/2012

Did anyone make it to WalMart today to get thier cheap fruit? I did, I had to pick up my older 2 from school since I stayed home with a sick little one. So on the way we stopped at 2 stores, WalMart and my new favorite store.. Publix. I was so anti-Publix for the longest time, but then once I started couponing, I found out how much cheaper they are are when you shop the BOGO sales. The great thing about Publix is when something is buy one get one free it rings up both items at half price. You don't have to buy 2 items to get the deal, they are both half off, so that means you can use 2 coupons, one for each item. This week, thru Wed they have Lucky Charms on sale BOGO for 3.99. So both boxes are $1.99 each. Last week http://www.redplum.com/ had a 50 cents off coupon for 1 box, and when that coupon doubles, that means I only pay 99 cents for a box of cereal. Do you know how expensive cereal is at Walmart? You can also price match this at Walmart if you prefer to do that. I found lots of good deals today, I will share more later. So hope you learned something today other than Publix is my favorite grocery store. lol!

Sunday 3/18/12

Don't forget to get your AJC this week. There are 2 inserts in there, 1 Redplum and 1 Smartsource. There are ads for CVS, Riteaid, publix and also drumroll please... ALDI! You know what that means, price matching at Walmart. If you are a new couponer, I love it when there is an ALDI insert because they have great prices on fruits and veggies (which we never see coupons for), and then you can take it to Walmart or Target and price match.
This week Aldi has strawberries for 99 cents per pack WOW I know right, cheap strawberries!! Green grapes are an awesome deal too... 90 cents a lb. YUM! We love green grapes at our house. Pineapple and canteloupes are also a good deal at 99 cents a piece. Don't forget to take your ad with you to WalMart, but if you forget it, sometimes if you just tell them they will honor the price. Hope you can score some cheap fruit this week....  but please leave some for me!

Welcome!

Hey glad you stopped by to check out my blog. I have people ask me on a daily basis how did you save that much or how do you get free stuff, so I thought I would share my deals and post pictures of my shopping trips from time to time. I hope you enjoy your stay, and leave a comment if you want.
