HOT Deal at Albertson's - LAST DAY

2011-06-14T11:48:00.000-07:00

Sorry I'm so late in posting this but I wanted to let you know still in case you have an Albertson's near by. This is a great deal.

Right now when you buy $100 in Gift Cards a coupon will print out for $20 off at Albertson's! FREE GROCERIES!!!

This is a great way to get a discount on things you don't normally get a discount on!

A couple of great Gift Cards you can pick up are

JC Penneys - They have great coupons you will be able to use with it!
Lowes & Home Depot - Planning a big purchase? This is a great way to save a little!
Numerous Clothing Stores - Great time to save on back to school shopping!
Disney - Planning a trip to Disney this summer? You can also pick up a gift card for there!
Restaurants- Planning any trip this summer? Prepare by purchasing gift cards to places you will eat!
Movies - Get a gift card to the movies!

And you don't have to purchase all $100 to one place! You can mix it up. You just have to spend a TOTAL $100 in one transaction. Even better is since these are gift cards you are using. When you redeem them at the store they are for you will be able to use a coupon too!

Today I bought $250 Gift cards to Ebay, $25 Amazon and $25 McDonald's! ($300 total) I got back $60 to spend on Groceries at Albertson's!

The coupons that print out are only good for one week so you will have to use them quickly. But this is such a great way to get

Another Giving Opportunity - Couponing for Community

2011-04-14T19:37:00.000-07:00

I am so excited to tell you about this awesome campaign of giving!

Couponing for Community is a grassroots effort of bloggers nationwide who realized that we have the power and the resources to make a united impact for good.

They have joined with Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive to "Flex our couponing muscles" for one week! We are going EXTREME the week of May 8-14. With a goal of donating 10,000 items!!!

You can donate even more that Stamp Out Hunger will not accept to your local homeless shelter, food pantry, or a friend in need etc! Keep a count so we can show what an awesome impact we are able to make with coupons!

Will you join us in using your power to help others?

Check out Couponing for Community on Facebook for more information and see how you can donate non-perishable food items as easily as leaving them by your mailbox by visiting Stamp Out Hunger!

I can't wait to see how much of an impact we can all make!

You DON'T have to be EXTREME to save money!

2011-04-06T22:28:00.000-07:00

So yes there is a new show on TLC called EXTREME Couponing. If you watched it you may be thinking they do not want to go through all that to coupon or don't want stockpiles all over your house. Well I just want to make sure I set the record straight....

It's called EXTREME for a reason ;)

Just like Hoarding etc are extreme cases so are the ones on this show.

Some of the couponers on the show bought over 60 bottles of mustard... over 30 bottles of Malox etc. she paid for these items. Not much but something.

Now a regular couponer would not get that many. We know that items go on sale regularly. So when it's on sale we only need to buy enough to last until that next sale. It will be different for each family of course.

Here are a few questions you may have after watching the show..

How many of each coupon do you have? (Some on the show had over 60 of ONE coupon!)

- I usually have 4-5 of each coupon sometimes more if the coupon came out more than once.

- I get 4 Sunday Newspapers delivered each week

- If there is a Red Plum insert that week I also get one of those in my mail in addition to the 4 in my Sunday paper

- I have two computers, usually you can print 2 of each coupon from each printer. If a coupon is on multiple sites sometimes you are able to print 2 of those from each computer as well

So you can see I would usually not have enough coupons to buy 60 of something.

Now there are exceptions.

If I can get paid to buy an item with a coupon

It is something I will go through many of before I think the next sale might be

If it is an item that doesn't go on sale often

Now in these cases I may buy the coupons off of ebay.

Do you have items stored all over your house?

NO! Well I do have a little amount stored in the places its used.

For example my 10 boxes of dish detergent are under the sink

but I DO NOT have boxes of toilet paper under my bed etc! ;)

Do you buy items if you dont need or whont use them?

ABSOLUTELY! Not all the time but...

- If the item is free

- If the item is cheap and a GREAT donation item!

- If they pay me to buy the item

But these items don't stick around - Oh no they are donated!

While some would not go through the time and effort for me it is a way I am able to give that I wouldn't be able to otherwise. Especially if I will already be at the store getting items I will need it only makes sense to me to pick the items that fall in the above up too!

Well those are my thoughts on the new show! Comment if you have any questions or let me know your opinion!

Today I bought $145.22 worth of groceries for $42.30 that’s $102.92 saved – Just over 70%! I got 45 items so everything comes out to less than $1.00 each!!

Part of what I bought you had to buy in groups of ten participating items then get a $5 credit. I bought 30 but the credit only came off twice I realized when I got home. Looked through the receipt and it looks like one of the Barbara Cereals didn’t count for some reason. So I plan on going back to get the $5. My totals assume I did that :)

2 – Barbara’s Cereal

2 – Garden of Eatin’ Tortilla Chips

Sugar Cookie Mix

Kettle Chips

3 – Ranch Dressing

2 – Nestle Break & bake Cookie Dough

4 – Progresso

2 – Honest Tea

Kraft Cheese Singles

2 – Hormel Chili

4 – Uncle Ben’s Rice

2 – Bar-S Hotdogs

3 – Green Beans

Palmolive Dish soap

3 lbs Honeycrisp Apples (These were $6.03 by itself but my fav apples)

2 Bakery Garlic Breads

2 Bags Bagel Chips

Dozen Eggs

2 – Orange Juice

Pillsbury Brownie Mix

5 – Dressing Mixes (I bought the wrong kind so these will be going back)

1 gallon milk (not pictured)

I used $32.42 worth of coupons!

Frugal tip: To avoid one of the money pits of going out to do something even when it’s free – you guessed it FOOD!!

1. Pack a lunch!

2. Look for restraunts nearby the location on http://www.restaurant.com where right now you can buy a $25 certificate for just $3 that’s 70% off… (Make it go farther by ordering water and avoiding pricey soda or other drinks!)

3. Pack snacks and drinks too! Sometimes being so busy can make you and the kids more hungry than normal!

Thanks to Thrifty NW mom and Sounds Fun Mom for the list!

Albertson's Scenarios - Small MM!

2009-10-17T01:39:00.000-07:00

Albertson's has a few catalina promo's going on right now. You can triple dip because they overlap. In case you haven't noticed I am most interested in FREE! I don't mind spending a little bit OOP to get free but I really like FREE... so here is a start that turns out better than free - they pay you $1 - to get started. Only catch is they are IP's so you will have to have multiple computers. After you get started with this scenario though then you can roll. I will try to post more scenarios to roll into later.

5 - Pillsbury Simply cookies refrigerated cookie dough - $2.50 each - $12.50 total
5 - Betty Crocker Fruit shapes - $2.50 each - $12.50 Total
Total = $25.00 Before coupons

Coupons
5 - $1/1 Pillsbury simply cookie dough (internet printable here)
5 - $0.40/1 Betty Crocker fruit shapes (Internet printable here)
3 - Albertson's Doubles (Coming out Sunday)

Total OOP= $15.00

Get $3.00 from Pillsbury
Get $3.oo from Betty Crocker
and $10.00 for buying $25 of participating products

Making your net a $1.00 profit! :)

I will try to come up with some more scenarios to share but I know I will start with this and roll them into the next scenario whatever that may be.... I'm trying to gather what things will be needed and roll into those...

Like Pie Crusts so my MOM can make some blackberry pie with the blackberries she DIDN'T pick this year ;) (I love you mom!)

If you have $1.00/1 Kraft BBQ it could be even sweeter! If you have the $1.00 q and get 10 of them than you have $5 to spend on whatever since this will make the BBQ sauce free and you will still get the $5.00 epic savings!
