All the stores have some great deals this week. This is good news for those of you who live up in Northern, Az. Some great deals and Bashas and Safeway! I will try to get these deals posted early tomorrow morning.

Gerber Catalinas still printing!
I bought 20 jars of baby food and 6 things of Gerber snack because I had a coupon and my kids love these. Anyways I got three Catalina's at checkout. Two $.75, and one $3.00 of my next purchase at Fry's. It pays to buy in bulk especially when Gerber is giving out such great Catalina's! Plus I had more coupons print out for me next time I go.

Follow-up Walgreen Diapers
I went today and did this Walgreens diaper deal. It worked great! I was running errands so I ended up stopping at three different Walgreens since you can only get one pack of diapers per trip. Good-luck! Comment if you have a question about this deal.
|
Walgreen Diapers
At Walgreens Huggies diapers are on sale. They are 7.99 - 1.00RR (Register Rewards)= $6.99. Plus we have coupons for diapers as well. There is a limit of one.
If you dont know what Register Rewards are, it is money that prints when you checkout that you can use next time you shop. So on this deal you will pay 7.99 and get a dollar to spend next time.
Idea:
1st Trans
Buy one Colgate toothpaste 3.49 -1.00 coupon = 2.49 +3.49RR.
2nd Transaction
One pack Huggies diapers 7.99-3.49(From previous transaction RR) - 2.00 Huggies coupon= $2.50+ walk home with 1.00 RR.

Surveys
Another way I earn a little extra cash each month is by filling out surveys online. It has taken me a while to figure out which survey sites I can earn the most money doing. Opinion Outpost is one of my favorites! I have earned the most using them. When my kiddos are down for a nap or I have some free time I spend it doing surveys. Even if you only have time to earn $2 a day thats $60.00 a month. That means extra money for date nights, clothes, etc..

Coupon Entertainment Books
If you haven't seen these books they are great! We bought one last year for a fund raiser and we loved it. I easily used more in coupons than I spent for the book. If you signed up for Inbox Dollars they had a great deal where you get $8.00 from inbox dollars for buying one plus a free $25.00 restaurant.com gift card. The book costs 32.00. So after the $8.00 + $25.00 you make your money back. Plus you get an awesome coupon book full of coupons for food, shopping, travel, etc. Its a great deal!
If you are still interested in doing inbox dollars click here.

Baby Formula
Click Here to get a $3/1 coupon for similac formula. Great coupon!
One other idea for getting formula cheaper is buying it off craigslist. Since there was a recent recall on the larger cans of similac formula I would buy the smaller cans just to make sure you aren't getting formula that should be recalled. Sometimes I get my formula for half price off craigslist. Make sure the can is un-opened and check the expiration date.

Click here to get this weeks grocery deals.
Good Grabs Fry's-There are a few good freebies at Fry's including dish soap, toothpaste, and toothbrushes. Plus ground beef is on sale as well. I also saw honey bunches of oat cereal on sale for a 1.99. And some Capn'crunch was on sale for a 1.75 and we should have a coupon for this one.
Good Grabs Albies- There is a good sale on cereal and fruit snack again at Albies. Its GM cereal and we have coupons for both the cereal and fruit snacks. And catalinas will probably print if you buy 3 or more boxes of GM cereal. Roast and chicken is also on sale here this week.
Good Grabs Safeway- Steak and pork chops are on sale. Also BC fruit snacks are a really good deal here. $.50.
Good Grabs Bashas- Pumpkins for a 1.50 only on Tuesday! Ground beef, milk, deli meat, apple juice, soup, and totinos pizza are a few good things to grab here.

Target/ Huggies Wipes
I ran to target to get some wipes. They ended up being on sale for $5.49 which is decent plus having the 2.50 off coupon online. So that makes them 2.90. Pretty good deal.
Also if you have a reach coupon you can get reach floss for free. Its .97 plus there is $1/1 coupon you can get online. I also got the instant oatmeal for like .29. There is a 2.00 printable coupon available.
On my way out I saw the giftbags were on a big sale. So I ended up picking up a couple giftbags, nice ones, originally three dollars for $.68.

Good Grabs @ Albies
Great Catalina that printed for me was 3.00 back from General Mills for buying 5 or more boxes of cereal. I bought six boxes. I spent a little less than a dollar per item this trip. I got 5lbs of meat, diapers, cereal, gum, cookie mix, and rasberries. Normally I wouldnt even buy gum or cookie mix but they were really cheap or free. So get yourself motivated to get some of these great deals this week at Albies. You should have coupons for almost all of these items.
Great Grabs:
GM cereal
BC fruit snacks
BC muffin mix
BC cookie Mix- FREE
ground beef
soft soap - FREE
****Flour (Limit 2)- .88

New Addiction
Sooo.. I am in love with yard sales. I cant even tell you all the amazing deals I got on things in the past two days. And its all because of my great friend that got me into this. We are talking 32 pieces of clothing for around $8.00. That's .25 cents each. I got great brand new clothes with the tags still on. I also found brand new winter hats and scarfs for my boys which were brand new as well. This really could be a great way for you to save money on clothes and tons of other things like toys. And like I said I got clothes that still had the tags on so they are brand new. You cannot get those deals in the store. I got my oldest boy a semi-truck that holds the smaller cars for .50 cents. It looks brand new! Try it! Share your steals by commenting!

Yard Sales
My really good friend has gotten me into yard sales. She never pays more than .25 cents for clothes and she gets some great brands that are in really good shape. Ill be posting later some good swipes we get if we find some today. Yard sales can be another great way to get reduced prices!

Fresh & Easy Coupon
I believe Fry's is still accepting competitor coupons this week. Sign up for the Fresh & Easy email list so you can get their coupons sent to you. This week I got a $6 off $30 purchase or more so I will for sure use this when I go to Fry's. Click here! Also safeway has coupons printed in their add. Clip these and take them to Fry's too. A few I am going to use from Safeway are the mission tortillas and the cottonelle toilet paper.
Albertsons has some good deals this week to so I am shopping there as well. My hubby loves blueberry muffins and they have the Betty Crocker muffins on sale as as well as cereal and fruit snacks. Ill post more details about shopping this week once I go tomorrow.

We have been trying to vamp up our immune systems at our house. My son got really sick this year for a month and then my husband got sick for three weeks. We are sick of being sick!

Post a comment if you would like a copy of these healthy recipes. Also, if you have one to add let me know too!
Anyways here is one health tip for today: Substitute the oil you use for Pure Olive Oil. Its much healthier and it tastes better too!

Coupon email suggestion/Keeping track
If you are really wanting to get into heavy coupons and shopping deals, I would suggest creating an email account just for coupons. I use my coupon email address for anything I do that has to do with saving money. It really helps lessen tons of emails going to your personal account and helps to keep it better organized. Also, please feel free to leave a comment if you find a good deal that I haven't posted. I will do my best to re post those deals so everyone can benefit. :)
One other suggestion; get yourself a binder or something that you can keep track of your savings. Excel spreadsheets work great too. This really helps to keep the motivation to continue bargain shopping. You will be surprised at how much a dollar here and a dollar there adds up! Its fun to see the monthy, quarterly, and yearly savings! You will never want to go back to paying full price again. Prepare to get addicted to savings!

Pinchingyourpennies.com
Have you ever used pinchingyourpennies.com? Well I love this website. They match sales with coupons and give the final price after savings and coupons. I am hoping to get a tutorial put up this week on how to get to the savings ads. I have had many people ask about it so hopefully that will help. But for now, check them out!

Its been a while!
Its been a while. Its hard to believe a year has gone by. My life is finally starting to slow down a bit and I am hoping to post more on this blog again. I still coupon shop and love finding great deals. Hope some of the posts help you too! It never hurts to save a buck!
