Guilty

Ok so it has been awhile since my last post....so sorry!! I have been laying low in the coupon world. The last couponing I did was at Harris Teeter for triple coupons a couple weeks ago. It wasn't major savings but it was good enough.

So I just watched last weeks extreme couponing on TLC and it still blows my mind. I think I am just not as dedicated as these extremers. I LOVE to save money BUT to dedicate multiple multiple hours preparing and then shopping and then don't get me started on checkout time, it's just not in the cards for me. I also have a small child that goes shopping with me and if I spent that much time in the store it would get ugly. So I am looking forward to tonights extreme couponing episode the DVR is set and I am ready.

This past weeks newspaper was stacked full of coupons I love the first Sunday paper of the month it always has good coupons!! So I have been preparing for my next shopping trip I am hoping for big savings and cupboards full of food.

Have a great week of saving and thank you for continuing to check out this tiny lil blog of mine!!

Match It!!

We have all seen the Wal-Mart commercials where they will match the price Without the ad and it just looks so easy.....Sure!! So I went with NO ads but had looked up online different ads to test this out. Walgreens had there new Huggies slip on diapers for $8.99 and Harris Teeter had there campbell soup for $1 a can. With my vast knowledge and some coupons in hand I headed up to the register I held back those specific items till the end to let them know that they needed to be Price Matched. So I let her (the cashier) .know of the prices and where and she asked if I had the flyers...of course I didn't because HELLO the commercials said you don't need them. So she had to go on a hunt to find the flyers to make sure that my prices were accurate.....hum I don't recall that happening on TV. Anyways after the long search she indeed found that I was correct.DUH. The plus side of this is I got the diapers for $3.99 a pack because I had them match a price and I had $5 in coupons to use for each pack. So they will match BUT it is not as easy as they make it look on the commercials.

So IT'S BACK......Extreme Coupons on TLC. It premiers tonight I can't wait to see what antics these crazy ladies pull out. Big Night...I don't know which is more pathetic the fact that this is what my life has come to or the fact that in a small way I am one of these crazy ladies??

On and end note yesterday was a great Sunday Coupon day. Which totally made up for last week not having any coupons. I am slighly behind on clipping and organizing my coupon pile but I have scanned them and am ready to go save.

Have a Great Week and Happy Saving

Is this week over YET

Ok so first things first there are NO I repeat NO COUPONS in tomorrows papers. So don't bother getting the paper...I mean if you only get them for the coupons, if you are one of those people that enjoy what is going on in the world then forge ahead!!

So I had a sick little boy...funny i said HAD I mean Have a sick little boy and it has been snot city here all week. So not much couponing got done this week, which I don't think I missed much....at least I would like to think that so I don't feel coupon anxiety!!

On the Up Side last weeks Sunday paper was chalked full of coupon inserts. So that was excited, I have yet to actually organize mine but what I saw at a glance looked promising.

So a little tip if you go on Southern Savers (link at top) you can see a coupon preview for the upcoming week. I like to take a look so I don't waste time or money on yucky or non existing coupons. I know what you are thinking YUCKY COUPONS....well it's true some are ala poo poo, just my opinion.

Hope you have had a good week and have a great week coming up

Happy Saving

Success!!

Asher and I hit up Harris Teeter today for there super Buy 2 Get 3 Deals!! So we got some craisins, coke and juice buy 2 get 3 FREE!! We also got some Cheerios for $.97 a box WHOO HOO. I think the best purchase was 1lb of hamburger meat for.......drum roll please....$.48 oh yes you are reading it right. I had a harris teeter coupon for 2.00off a package of either hamburger, chicken, or tuna compliments of hamburger helper. Harris Teeter had some of the packages marked down and bada bing there you have it.....$.48. It was a good shopping trip we ended up saving around $68.

So have any of you had any GREAT DEALS this week??

Coupon Palooza

What a fantastic week for coupons.....4 inserts in the Sunday paper. It was like Christmas in July.

Well let's see what is good for the week....Walgreens has a good deal on Crest mouthwash it is priced at 3.99 with a $1 register reward with purchase and if you use the $2 coupon from the P&G insert it is like paying $.99......That is math that I like!!

Deal idea for CVS: First transaction, purchase Gillette Fusion ProGlide mens razor for 9.99 use the 4.00 coupon from the P&G insert and receive a $5 extra buck with the purchase.

Second transaction, Take the $5 extrabucks you earned with the first transaction and use it towards the purchase of a pack of Pampers which are priced at 8.99 use the $2 coupon from the P&G insert making the pack of pampers.....$1.99......PLUS you get a $1 extrabucks with the purchase.

I hope the CVS example helped you come up with your own Super Coupon deal!!

Have a Great Week of Saving

Good Deals

Hello couponers my coupon drop was successful yesterday...I haven't heard from anyone so I don't know if anyone found them or not, but I did my part.

Anyway I went to Harris Teeter on Tues. my final outcome wasn't my best by any means I only saved $33 and spent $90...BOOO. I hadn't been to the grocery store for a lil bit so I had to buy things that I had no coupons for and were not on sale...OH WELL.

On a happier note I got 2 cases of water at Rite Aid for $1.67 and walked away with a $1.50 in Up Rewards. How did I do this you ask....well I had bought some diapers last week and for each pack I bought I earned $4 in Up Rewards. I had $8 in Up Rewards and the water was on sale so yadda yadda...water for $1.67.

I also went to CVS to get SoBe water for $.88 and the mouthwash that was on sale that you could earn $2 in ExtraBucks....but NO mouthwash to be found. I did get my 7 bottles of SoBe water so it wasn't a total wash.

Have you had any super finds this week??
