What to do

Hi everyone,

Just thought I'd drop a little note about deals for this week. Honestly, I haven't posted anything for this week because I am unsure of how I want to continue with this blog. I am definitely going to be blogging about my deals that I get (and I DEFINITELY will be using coupons the same as I have before). The part I am questioning is about posting weekly deals for CVS, Target and Walgreens every week. If no one is even reading them, then why should I spend at a minimum, 4-5 hours every week putting them together? Sorry, I'm not trying to vent here or anything, but I just am unsure of how I want to proceed. I do think my posts would be beneficial if I could get a large enough following because I have definitely noticed differences in price and deals for the various stores here in Minnesota. I also think that I do find some deals that other blogs don't...so anyway, those are my thoughts. :)

A few more Target deals

I hear that there are some pretty good deals on chicken this week (well, not just this week but through 5/23). Click here to print off Target’s $1 off store coupon, and pair it with one of the coupons from here or here.

Banana Boat Sunscreen in the Travel Section:$0.99-Use the $1.00/1 MQ from 5/3 RP Total cost: FREE after MQ!

Small Bags of Chex Mix by the registers: $0.99-Use the $1.00/1 Chex Mix Target Store Coupon here
Total cost: FREE after coupon!

I’ve got another Fiber one deal: (where you get a $5 gift card for buying 4)
Possible Transaction
Fiber One Yogurt 4 packs : $1.92 each
Buy 4 packs
Use 4, $1.00/1 IP coupons from here
Total= $3.68, plus get a $5.00 Gift Card, which is $1.32 PROFIT

(Thanks, attentiontargetshoppers)

Update: an even SWEETER deal on diet coke for only .40 each at CVS

Soooo, I got an e-mail from CVS with a coupon for $3 off any purchase of $15 or more here OR this $4 off $20 coupon here (this expires 5/10). Pair that coupon up with the diet coke deal I posted here, and get 5, 12 packs, each for around .30-.40 after ECBs!

**Make sure that you hand over your coupons in this order:

1. First give them the $4/20 coupon as your total will go below $20 with your MQs
2.Then give the manufacturers coupons
3. Then give your ECBs (if you have any) : this could be a MONEY MAKER if you have ECBs

Sneek peak: Coupons for 5/10

Wanna see what SS and Valassis (RP) have to offer next week? Click here to see the coupons here for SS and click here for valassis (RP).

**Please remember, these deals vary by state, so make sure to check out my post here to see what deals your Sunday coupons will have :)

A few coupons that look good:

I thought I would put my two cents in about previewing coupons for the week ahead. This can be really good for people like me, who try to post really good deals for people at places like CVS, Walgreens and Target. However, it can ALSO be good for you because if there is a really good coupon, then you should stock up on that newspaper. The key to saving money with coupons is stocking up when prices are at their lowest :)

Target's new return policy: Read this

Basically, Target’s new return policy is getting a little bit better. Previously, you would only have been able to make two returns without a receipt per year for store credit (as long as each item was under $34). The new policy without a receipt changes the value from $34 per item to $70. To read the entire post, click here.

Another interesting article on Target vs. Wal-Mart: Which do you prefer? The article showed that Wal-Mart’s prices were about 4% lower that Target on a sample size of 30 items. However, people who preferred Target were looking for more than just cost, it was about as fair wages, employee benefits and charitable giving. To read the entire article, click here.

My Walgreens deals: Week of 5/3/09

Hi everyone,

I did excenptionally well today with only ONE, yes one trip to Walgreens today because of all of the RRs I was able to roll from last week. If you missed that post, check it out here. Can I also say that I love that the Sunday Pioneer Press is only $1 at Walgreens? What a great filler item! :) Here is how I did it:

-Bayer Meter: $14.99 ($5RR)
used MQ from 3/22 SS for $14.99 (cashier had to enter in amount)
final cost free (and a $5 profit)

-Aveeno active natural daily moisturizing lotion (3): $2.63 each=$7.89

used 3, $2 coupons from here

final cost: $1.89, plus a FREE travel kit. A value of $9.99! (p.s.-mine was right near the other aveeno products on the top shelf)

-Colgate sensitive toothpaste: $4.49, ($4.49 RR)

used $1, IP Q from here

final cost: free plus $1 profit after RRs

-3, 12 packs of 7-up, sunkist, A&W, Hawaiian Punch of Canadian Dry: 3/$11 ($5RR)

used two, $1 IP coupons from here (if you can, try and use three if you have access to multiple computers)

final cost: $4 after RRs

-Bayer quick release crystals, $2.49

used $1.50 IP Q

Final cost: free plus a $1.50 money maker after RRs

-Right Guard: $2.99, ($2 RR)

used $1 MQ from 4/19 SS

-Final cost: free plus $1 money maker after RRs

(pssst: if you were one of the few lucky people to get the coupon from the internet for the free right guard, I've heard that it works, so this would be a $2.99 money maker!)

-Pert Plus: 2/$5 ($2 RR)

used 2, $1.50 MQs from 5/3 RP (or is it SS? I can't remember)

final cost: free after RRs

(see info about a mail in rebate for pert below)

-Dawn dish soap: .99 with in-ad walgreens coupon

used two, .50 coupons from the home made simple coupon booklet

final cost: 2/$1.00

-Used 5 RR's from last week: 4, $5 RR (from Nivea and got2B hair products) and one, $2.50 RR from the bayer crystals

-Then I had to get 5 filler items because of the RRs...so I got two newspapers for the coupons and then down the toothpaste aisle I found a filler item for "fresh breath" for only .15 each!

Total OOP: $2.57

Total Savings: $120.46

RR's I got from this transaction: $2RR-Pert, $2RR Right Guard, $5RR from soda, $4.49 RR from colgate and a $5RR from the Bayer meter.

**You may notice that I am short one RR. I didn't get one from the Bayer crystals because I forgot that I used a $2.50 RR from last week to buy them. So, they were still free, but I lost out on a RR. I guess I didn't plan that one too well :) Please learn from my mistakes people :)

Total RRs: $18.50 (should be $21 dang it) ;)

PSS: Don't forget about the Pert Plus MIR which would make the deal even sweeter! Woot woot. Check it out here.

If you are new to Walgreens, check out my store guide here.

CVS $9 money maker!

Remember last week when Adidas deodorants were on clearance for $1.25? Well, it appears as if they would work for this week's 3ECB deal according to Shopliftingwithpermission.
She used the $1/1 coupon from 4/5 RP. Here is how it worked:
$1.25 clearance,
-use $1 MQ
-pay .25 and get back a $3 ECB (limit of 3) which could be a money maker of up to $9
*FYI: the adidas deo on clearance is the one that says intensive.

Some stores have them marked, but if yours doesn't, go and check the price at the price checker!

Help Create a Community Garden in Apple Valley

I always try to buy local produce when I can, and if you live near Apple Valley, MN then please read this or check out the text below (I got it from Valley Natural Foods, a co-op in Burnsville).

What is a Community Garden? A community garden is a piece of land shared by community members to grow vegetables, herbs, fruits and flowers for their individual households. If your yard is too small or too shady, or if you have no place to garden at your apartment or condominium, or if or if you simply like the idea of gardening alongside neighbors, a community garden is the answer.

What benefits would we gain from having a community garden?

• Grow and raise your own food or flowers.
• Improve nutrition while reducing food costs.
• Exercise and enjoy being out-of-doors.
• Get in touch with nature.
• Reduce stress.
• Involve kids in the wonders of gardening.
• Enjoy meeting new neighbors.
• Add beauty and vitality to our community.
• Have fun!

Community Gardens are just as much about growing community as growing food!
Learning from your gardening neighbors is part of the joy of it . . .
share recipes, gardening tips, or figure out together how to grow something you’ve never tried before.

Do You Want to Get Involved? Give input? Have Questions?
Contact Pat Schoenecker at AVgarden@charter.net or (612) 963-3372

Do you crave sweet treats?

Me too. I just read an interesting piece from Eat This, Not That. Here is what the newsletter said: (by the way, the reccomend Kashi's new soft baked bars which would pair really well with the Kashi coupon here)

The problem with most sweet treats is they're loaded with sugar, calories, or both. Consume too much of the sweet stuff and you could spike your blood sugar, which increases your chances of developing type-2 diabetes. Not so good. The good news is that not all candies and sweets will treat your body the same brutal way—you have Eat This, Not That! permission to snack (in moderation) on these 10 totally guilt-free supermarket sweets. Another way to keep your blood sugar low is to eat these treats slowly. Japanese researchers gave the same meals to two groups of people, and then asked them to report how quickly they consumed the food. Those who inhaled their dishes had much higher blood sugar than those who took their time over the exact same plates. Are you more of a Hoover than a hoverer? Eat with friends—people who eat in groups eat more slowly, probably because they spend time talking. And try to count the number of chews you have—the more chews you take, the more full you'll feel, scientists found. Another option is to choose a snack from our list of the 15 best snacks for 100 calories or less. The best snacks are filled with protein and fiber—the more you get, the fewer calories you'll consume later in the day. And limiting your snacking to 100 calories ensures that you'll have some much-needed portion control. For more useful snacking tips, check out our 7 Smart Snacking Guidelines.

CVS:random information for you to use

At a CVS near my house, I have the nicest CVS worker...she is so sweet and tried to help me out in every way she can. One thing that I just learned about CVS: if they are out of an item, they actually prefer to do substitutions for similar or alike products rather than rain check (not that they can't do them, though). They can even adjust the price....just an FYI if you get frustrated if your store is out of something :)

If you're like me, you might forget that you even got a rain check!
