April's Fury

Hello Couponers
I it with a very heavy heart that I sit here writing this blog.  As most of you may know I live in the great state of Alabama that Wednesday was ripped apart due to massive tornadoes.  I have never seen anything like it at all even in the movies.  Luckily the part of Alabama that I live in was spared from the worst of it but I have friends in areas that were hit hard.  The death toll just in the state of Alabama is over 200 now and there are people that have lost everything they own.

I spent part of the day yesterday at the a local missions office sorting items that would be sent out to the victims.  I started out in the massive clothing section of warehouse sorting clothes and shoes.  I am going to be brutally honest here because I think someone needs to say it...I was appalled at some of the things that I saw that were donated.  Do people actually think that someone that doesn't have a house needs a pair of 5 inch stilettos?  Not to mention it is well in the 80's here and we uncovered bag after bag of heavy sweaters and coats.  These people have immediate needs!!! The need shoes that they can wear right now as they sift through the rubble that was their life.  Okay soap box rant over...I know that every little bit helps and maybe those stilettos (by the way that wasn't the only pair we saw) were all that that particular person had to give but to me there were bags that I opened that just looked like someone cleaned out their closet of the things they no longer liked and brought them to us. 

After an hour of clothes sorting I ventured over to the toiletries section.  I was up to my elbows in toothpaste!!!!  I was loving it.  I opened one box and when I looked inside I said to myself..I bet this box was brought in by a couponer!  It looked a lot like my stockpile here at home.  I was sad to see that this area of the warehouse was WAY smaller that the clothes section.  There is a huge need for those items right now.  So my couponing mission this week is to get as much of that type stuff as I can and get it to those people. If you are reading my blog and you would like to know ways that you can help comment below and I will get you the information.  If you know me and you want to make a donation of something I would be happy to meet you somewhere or you can drop it by my house!!

So Couponers....LET'S GET THIS!!!!

Friday, April 22, 2011

Can you be on a diet and get everything that you need with coupons?

Can you coupon and be on a diet?  That is the question of the night here at my house.   On Monday I am going start on the 17 Day Diet.  This is a diet that requires you to eat a lot of chicken, veggies, fruit, and probiotics.  So my goal is to diet and coupon.  Lots of times diets require that you eat a lot of weird (well weird to me) things that are hard to find with coupons.  With this diet I think that I will be able to follow the plan and stay with my coupon plan as well. 
So stay tuned and we will take this journey together!!!  How awesome will it be if we can lose weight and save money in the process???

Hope everyone has had a good week.  I have taken a little break from couponing since there were no new ads for Publix this week!!!

Happy Shopping and Saving!!!

My CVS Shop This Week

My CVS shop this week was pretty awesome!!!  I did make a mistake in my calculations that caused me to look like an idiot in the store but that is okay....it happens!!!

This is how I did:
4--LOreal Face Washes
7--Finish Dishwasher Tabs
2--Bubbles (these were not the ones that we on sale that week)
1--Maybelline Foundation
1--Maybelline Gel Eye Liner

Total OOP: $36.62
Total Savings: $64.88
ECBs Received: $14.99

Before my coupons my total was a little over $100.  If you take into consideration the ECBs that I got I got all of that stuff for $21.63!!!!
The mistake that I made cost me a $6.00 ECB.  I should have gotten 5 of the face washes instead of just 4 and I would have gotten the ECB.  Not a huge mistake but I walked out there a little deflated because I was trying to earn the same amount of ECBs that I used in this transaction which was $21.99.  Again nothing major just kicked myself a little!!!

Happy Shopping and Saving!!!!

Coupon Preview for Sunday

This Sunday is going to be a great coupon weekend!!!  HOPEFULLY you will all get 4 yes you read that 4 coupon inserts in this weeks paper!  The rumors going around are that we will get 2 Smart Source and 2 Red Plums on Sunday!!!

From what I can see on the Internet it looks like one Smart Source will have a lot of medicine coupons in it and the other Smart Source will have Huggies and some food items.  The Red Plum will have several food items.  I am going to keep looking for specifics and I will keep you all posted.

Happy Savings!!

WHOOOO HOOOOO!!!! CouponDeDe does it again!

So Monday afternoon I was looking at this weeks Publix ad and saw a hole in my coupons so I decided to go over to CouponDeDe and see what I could get to help me out.  This is how I did:
10- $1.00 of 2 Mars Candy items
2-- $1.00 of 1 Dove Chocolate Bag
4--$.55 off 1 Chinet
6--$1.00 off 1 Hormel Refrigerated Entree
2--$1.00 off 1 Tropicana Pure Premium
4--$1.00 off 2 Charmin
4--$1.00 off 1 A1 Steak Sauce or Marinade

That is 32 coupons and it only cost me $4.14.  I feel like that is a pretty good deal.  Several of these items that I got weren't in my inserts or I only had one or two of them so I am pleased!!

How I got a $2.15 lunch from Schlotzsky's

The other day I posted on Facebook that I was at Schlotzsky's and I had paid $2.15 for my lunch.  All that I had to pay for was my drink and you can tell by my $2.15 total that I got a large (or a gallon drink as my husband called it).  So how did I do it?  With a survey that was on the bottom of a receipt my husband had.  He was in there one day having lunch and he got a web address on the bottom that said fill out this survey and get a free sandwich.  I don't think my husband has paid for a sandwich there for months.

So if you get any kind of survey on a receipt take a look at it and you might get something free!!!

Happy Saving and Hopefully getting some free stuff!!!

Busy Busy Week!!

Good Afternoon Couponers!!!  Is anyone else as happy as I am that the weekend is here???

I didn't get to do a lot of shopping this week but I did make it to CVS and to Walgreen's.  Last Saturday morning I did my weekly Publix shop.  I am going to work on getting my weekly totals ready for you guys.  We are having some terrible weather here so I might not get it all done tonight but I am going to try!

So where all are you planning on shopping this weekend?  I am about to start digging up the deals that I think are hot for the next week so stay tuned!!!

TLC's Extreme Couponing tonight

Tonight's show was WAY better than last weeks two episodes!!! I think by far my fave couponer to date is Nathan.  Yes it is a little crazy that he has a toothpaste room BUT did you see the goods that he was putting in those bags!!!  I totally teared up when I saw the impact that he was having....makes me want to use my money saving skills in the same way.

As for the twins...they scared me!!!  They seemed very harsh and not people that I would really want to help much if I worked in a store.  I am all for saving money but there is no need to be snippy with the cashier.  They also appear to be shelf cleaners which really bugs me.  Not only is it rude to take everything that is there for others but to then complain about there not being any floss...I bet you heard me yelling at the TV?

I was so touched by Nathan and his giving.  I am working on an idea for all us that coupon to make an impact like he has so stay tuned to see!!!

Stock Pile Update

After a little over a month of couponing and working on my stockpile I am very very please to say that I actually have a few items that I am fully stocked up on and won't have to purchase them for awhile!!!!  I am so excited at what all I have stocked up on for such cheap prices!!! These are the items that I feel like I am fully stocked up on right now:
Laundry Detergent
Toilet Paper
Tissues
Shampoo
Toothbrushes
Lotion
Face wash
Dishwasher Detergent
Pasta
Hamburger Helper
Frozen Veggies
Butter
Cheese
Cereal
Body Wash

I am sure that there are some things that I have left off of this but this is going solely on my memory!!!  I am still planning on watching the sales for toothpaste and toothbrushes to donate for a mission trip!
How are your stockpiles looking?  I hope that those of you that are following the blog will leave a comment and let me know how you are doing!!!

Happy Shopping, Stockpiling, and Saving!!!

Brown Bag Challenge Update

So last week I decided that I was going to put myself on a Brown Bag challenge and instead of going out to eat every day that I was at work I was going to take my lunch two days each week.  This week I decided that those days were going to be Tuesday and Thursday.  Tuesday was a crazy busy day so having my lunch there at work saved me a ton of time!  Tomorrow I am not going to be able to take my lunch so I am going to move my day to Friday.  I work in a place where EVERYONE goes out a lunch so resisting the temptation to not just join the crowd is going to be hard but I have two friends helping me stay on track!!!

My Apologies

Hello Couponers!!!  Happy Hump Day!
I am so sorry that I haven't gotten any blogs up this week but it has been a crazy busy and very stressful week so far!  However I am home tonight and I have several things that I will be posting!

Who is going to watch the TLC Extreme Couponer show tonight??  Even thought I don't think what they are showing is really reality I am going to watch. Tonight they are supposed to be showing how couponing can enable you to donate things so I am very interested to see how they portray this.  I have my doubts about people actually doing what they do on the show but my favorite cashier and bagger and I talked about it last weekend when I was in Publix and they say that they do have people that get truck loads of things and pay very little for them!  So maybe one day I will get there!!!

I hope that you have all had a great week!  Even as stressful as this week has been for me I feel really bad for not posting things here!  

Happy Shopping and Saving!!!

Didn't get my extra papers today

I was soooooo excited when I woke up this morning and thought about the 3 papers that were supposed to be waiting for me in my drive way.  When I left to go to church I ran out to get them and it was only 1.  No biggie I thought!  I will run to Dollar Tree and get a few extras.  NOPE they were sold out!  So this gives me the perfect opportunity to try a service that someone on Facebook told me about where I can order whole inserts.  I am checking out the process now and I will definitely do a post and let you know how it all works!!!

Happy Shopping and Savings!!

Couponing for a Cause

Happy Saturday!!!!  I don't know about where you guys are but here in Alabama it is HOT!!!

I was just looking on Facebook and some friends of mine that work at my kids school are going on a mission trip this summer to Africa.  They are looking for toothbrushes and toothpaste to take along with them.  My stockpile of both of these is pretty much stocked for awhile.  So for the next few months every time I can get free or cheap toothbrushes or toothpaste I will be getting it for the Swaziland Missions Team!

I have seen how the Lord will provide things when they are needed and this is one way that I can help this team of wonderful people that help my children every day!

Sunday Coupon Preview

In this Sunday's paper there will be one Smart Source and one Red Plum insert!!  So glad that I added 2 extra subscriptions this week with the special my local paper was running!!!

Brown Bag Challenge

I am giving myself a challenge that I really really hope I can keep up with!!!!  I want to see if Brown Bagging lunch 2 days a week can help me save even more money.  I would love to say "I am going to take my lunch EVERYDAY!"  but I know for me that is not realistic at all.  There are days when I just have to get out of the office!!!  So starting next week my goal is to take my lunch at least 2 out of the five days that I am at work.  If I can do it I know the savings will be small but the sense of accomplishment will be HUGE!!  If I can do it I will add a day!!!  So stay tuned to see if I can keep it up....Meredith and Stephanie you guys are going to have to keep me in check!!!!

Weekly Savings

TGIF Couponers!!! 
I hope that you have all had a successful week of shopping and savings!!  I feel like I have had a good week.  I am hoping that next week I don't have to do as much shopping as I did this week since my stockpile is getting pretty much fully stocked.  This week I saved almost as much as I spent which to me is a pretty bug accomplishment.  My total out of pocket for the week was $203.48.  That includes 2 trips to Publix, 2 trips to CVS, and one stop at Walgreens.  The retail of what all my trips this week was $394.76 so I saved $198.56.
I was thinking that I had saved more than that but I was looking at my monthly total from last month.  I am hoping that as I get better at couponing and my stockpile is more rounded out that I will save WAY more than I spend each week.

Do you like this type of post?  If so leave me a comment so that I will know to continue these post!!!

Happy Weekend and Shopping and Savings!!!

The Coupon Binder Overhaul Has Begun!!!

Howdy Couponers!!!
I have been talking for a few weeks now about overhauling my binder and I officially started today.  I discovered that really like to have my coupons clipped but I also like keeping the inserts whole.  I have a lot of people that give me coupons that they don't use so those I have to clip and file in my baseball card inserts.  The inserts that I get I don't clip.  Now that I am getting multiple papers every week I am going to start keeping my inserts in an expandable file thing that I have from the first time that I couponed. 

So here is what I have done so far.  With the number of HBA coupons that I have I added several baseball card holders to that section and designated a product for each one.  So this is what I have in my HBA section now, I have my sheet protector for my printed coupons and a sheet protector for my clipped but not filed coupons.  The I have a page just for Oral Care, a page for body washes, lotions, and razors, followed by a page for makeup, a page just for all the men's products, and last but not least a page for just shampoo.

This is all that I got finished today but I plan on going into each section of my binder and as I am cleaning out expired coupons I am going to evaluate the way that I have everything in there and see if I need more baseball card pages.  I still have a lot of coupons that I need to file in all of my sections so doing that will help me see what I need!!!

Happy Organizing and Saving!!!

Mini Shop at Walgreens today

Good Evening Couponers!!!
I have a sick child so I needed to run in Walgreen's today to get her some medicine so I did a little shopping while I was there.  I was once again reminded of how I don't like the Walgreen's that is over here on my side of town.  They were doing a complete reset of the store today when I was in there and I couldn't find anything that I was looking for.  However it turned out to be an AWESOME I repeat AWESOME shop!!!

This is how I did:
2-- Pantene Shampoos
2--Purex Laundry Detergents 32 loads each
2--14 packs of Always
1--Lunchable
1--PediaSure

Total OOP- $7.98
Total Saved: $29.98
Percent Saving: 79%

TLC's Extreme Couponing

WOW!!!!  What a show!  I was so excited for the show to start...I was like a little kid!!!  However I have to say as excited as I was I was more than a little dissappointed in it. I personally think that it should be called CRAZY Extreme Couponing.  Which is what has prompted me to do this blog tonight. 

I want to you all to know that I am not a CRAZY Extreme Couponer.  I coupon for the things that my family needs and uses.  I would NEVER, let me repeat that NEVER clear the shelves of anything for a deal.  I did it one time and I felt terrible about it afterwards and all that I took was the last Diet Coke I really didn't clear the shelf!  If you watched the show you saw a woman clear the shelves of mustard with her husband standing there saying he didn't like mustard.  To me that is just out there!!!  I am not going to buy something that I know my family doesn't like UNLESS it is something that I do like...then it becomes a treat for me!!! So if this is your first time reading my blog and you are expecting me to tell you how to go from $1000 to $10 you are in the wrong place.  I am here to share my knowledge of how I make couponing work for me and my family.  Do I stockpile?  Yes.  Do I have 74 bottles of mustard in my stockpile?  No!!!  I stockpile just enough to get me to the next sale which is usually 3-4 months.  Will I ever fill a shower with toilet paper or store bar be que sauce under one of my kids beds?  NO!!!  I will stockpile using the normal food storage areas in my house and will have it looking like I live in a grocery store.  And finally do I think that what those women did on the show is doable here where I live?  To some extent I do...but not as close to free as they got it.  I can pretty much walk into CVS and get a lot of stuff for cheap.  Same with Walgreens.  However the grocery store is a different animal for me.  Would I like to do what they did last night?  Heck yeah but only if I was getting things that I know that my kids and husband will eat and use!!!

Let me leave you with this question if you watched the second episode....is Maalox a new party food that I am not aware of?  If so please let me know ASAP because I am having people over this weekend and want to make sure that I get some!!!

Happy Shopping and Savings!!!!

Product Review-- Purex Fabric Softner Crystal

I would like to start this post out by saying that I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!

One area that I have been a total brand snob is laundry detergent.  I have been a Gain girl since the day my grandmother told me that Tide would ruin my clothes (I really don't think that it is true but I was looking for a reason to change) .  So when I started couponing I saw that I could get Purex for .99 at CVS so I was like OK I will give it a try.  I feel in love with it!!!  So when Purex put out these fabric softner crystals  and I could get those for $.99 I was like BRING IT ON!!! 

These things make your clothes smell AMAZING!!!  From what I can tell from the stores that I have been to there are 3 scents that they come in.  I have used the purple which is lavendar and the blue which is Fresh Spring Waters.  I haven't been able to find the other scent yet but I am sure that it is just as amazing as these other two.  They have such a strong scent that as the dryer is running the whole laundry room will smell wonderful!  Towels that were washed over a week ago still smell great when they come out of the closet early in the morning! 

I can't say enough about how great these things are!!!  So watch the CVS ads they have by far the best deals on Purex and grab some of this wonderful stuff for cheap and see if you like it!  I think that you will!!!

Happy Shopping and Savings!!!

New Extreme Couponing show on TLC tonight

Are you guys as excited as I am about the new Extreme Couponing show that is premiering tonight on TLC????  I can't wait!!!!  I hope that these are people that we can learn from and not people so extreme that we don't get anything out of it other than a WOW that is a lot of stuff!!!

After the show is over I hope to be able to do a blog as a recap for anyone that may have missed it!

Mid Week Shopping Trip

Happy Hump Day Couponers!!!
Have you found a ton of great deals this week?  I decided to try something new this week and do a mini mid week shop at Publix so that I could get the penny item this week.  This is the first week in awhile that it has been something that I needed to get!!! 
This is how I did:
1--Always
1--Scotties Tissue
1--Crest Toothpaste
2--Oral B Toothbrushes
1--Purex
1-- 1 liter diet coke
1-- 20 oz Diet Dr Pepper
1--Publix Deluxe Mac and Cheese

Total OOP: $9.51
Total Saved: $18.70
This is an 84% savings!!!!  I was very pleased with this trip!!! 

I usually do one massive shop at Publix each week but this smaller shop was much easier and a lot easier to prep for and manage so I am thinking about doing more small shops when I have time just to see how that works for me.  However with as busy as I am I am not sure if that will work for me but we will see!!!

Happy Savings!!! 

Publix Penny Item

If you haven't been yet today the Publix Penny Item is Mac and Cheese.  The penny coupon is on page 2A of today's Birmingham News!!!

UPromise Coupons

Howdy Couponers!
Another great way to save at the store is with UPromise Coupons.  In order to use these coupons you have to be a memeber of UPromise.  Don't have kids?  No worries you can still sign up to be a member and save the money and when you have a child you can change the name in the system with no problem. I actually signed up six months before I got pregnant with my son. 

In case you aren't familiar with UPromise it is a savings program to help you earn money toward college.  You can do this by registering your customer cards at places like CVS, Publix, Winn Dixie, and your debit card and when you purchase items that have the UPromise logo on them a percentage of that cost will go into you UPromise account.  In addition to those savings they off a credit card that will reward you savings on every purchase.  They also give you savings when you shop certain stores from thier website. 

The grocery coupons that they offer work in the same way.  When you go the to UPromise site there is section for the coupons.  All that you have to do is select the items that you know that you will be purchasing that month and select them to be loaded on all of the customer loyalty cards that you have.  When that card is scanned at the store and you purchased the item that money will go into your UPromise account!!!  It is really easy!!! 

So if you see on a coupon match up a UPromise coupon now you know how to get it and use it!!!! Here is a link to the UPromise site so that you can sign up if you aren't already a member!!!

HAPPY SAVING!!!!

Happy Shopping!!!

CVS Deals that I scored today

So this afternoon I ventrued to CVS with my kids....not something that I have done yet while couponing.  It was interesting to say the least but I still managed to get out of the store only buying 3 drinks and 2 jelly bean eggs that weren't on the list!!!  Here is what I got:
3-- Resse's Eggs
3-- Cadbury Mini Eggs
2-- Glide Dental Floss
2--L'Oreal Voluminus Mascaras
1--Almay Pressed Powder
1-- Diet Dr Pepper
1-- Coke
1-- Chocolate Milk
2-- Jelly Bean Eggs

My total out of pocket was $23.72.  I saved $28.22!!!
I also walked out with 3 ECB totaling $12.00 for my next trip to the store.   This is actually one of the first times that I have gone to CVS and they actually had everything on my list which was exciting!!!   There are a few more deals that I am looking at going back for later on in the week so I will keep you posted!!!
Sorry the drinks aren't in the picture and one of the Mini Eggs is gone...remember that I said my kids were with me!!!!


Happy Shopping and Saving!!!!!!!

Publix shop from yesterday

Hello Couponers!
First of all I am sooooooo sorry I didn't get this posted yesterday but my baby girl hurt her toe and I had to rock her and love on her all night because she was so upset!!!

I did fairly decent at Publix yesterday.  I saved $120.56 but I spent a little more than.  I fell victim to the things that I saw that looked liked a good deal that weren't on my list that I didn't have a coupon for.  However they were things that I know we will use and they did have peelies on them so I did save some on them!!!  I also had to get some produce and a few things that weren't on sale.

The deal that I was the most excited about the Truvia I wasn't able to get because my store was all out.  I should have gotten a rain check but I had been in the store for 2 hours and was getting phone calls from home so I decided not too!  I am planning on running by today to see if they had any come in.  I was able to round out my stock pile of Idahoan Mash Potatoes.  I got a free reusable Publix bag for buying two Cover Girl Eye Shadows that were regular price $2.99 that I got for $.49!!!

Overall it wasn't a terrible week.  It was the first time in over a month that I have spent more than I saved and  I have to say I felt very disappointed in that!!!!

Hope you have all had a good weekend!!!! I am scoping out the drugstore sales and will post the deals that I see there soon!!!

Happy Shopping and Saving!!!

Headed to Publix!!!

After a crazy busy morning I am finally headed to the store!!!  Looks like it is going to be a good shop!
The main deal that I see right now is Truvia...I have a $1.00 Publix coupon that is was in the 3-20 RP insert and a $1.00 printable (SmartSource.com) so I am going to pay $.99 for it!
Also Pepperidge Farm Goldfish in several varieties are $1 and I have a handful of $.35 coupons!!

Stay tuned to see how it goes!!!

First of the month means NEW PRINTABLE COUPONS!!!

I do love when the first of the month rolls around!!!  It is almost like a birthday each month when you get to sign on and see what new and wonderful printables are out there...well at least for me it is!!!  Couponing has become my hobby so it doesn't take much to get me pumped up about it!!!

Yesterday all of the major coupon sites restocked and put lots of new coupons out there so don't forget to go take a look!  I saw new Huggies coupons, loads of Easter candy coupons, Goldfish Graham cracker coupons (which are on sale this week at Publix and with this coupon makes them $.30!!!).

So get out some paper and have your scissors ready!!!

Milk is on sale at Walgreen's

Good Morning Couponers!!!
A friend of mine sent me a text message last night telling me that Barber's Milk is on sale for $3.29 for a gallon which is $.60 off!!!
