Best Deals I see 4/28

While I dont want everyone to run out and take my cheez-its I thought I would share this deal anyway. About a month ago, Walmart had hanging coupons for $2 off two boxes of cheez-its. I grabbed several of them, naturally. I have been eagerly waiting for them to go on sale somewhere. Well, just as they are about to expire (4/30) Albies does not let me down. In today's ad they have Sunshine Cheez- Its on sale for 2 / $3. Put my $2/2 coupon on top of that and it comes out to be $1 for 2 boxes. That is a killer deal. I plan on getting plenty this evening. Hopefully you grabbed these coupons when they were at Wallyworld. If not, let this be a lesson. When you see hanging coupons, grab them, grab plenty of them.

Fiesta Foods has their "Big Coupon" and it is milk for .99! That is a fabulous deal. Yokes and Walmart will also honor this deal so take advantage.

Safeway has some great stuff going on but you have to wait till sat or sun for these to take effect.
Kraft Ranch Dressing $.99
cheez-it $.99 (my coupon expires before then otherwise it would = free cheez-its)
Starbucks Coffee- $5.99, use $1/1 (3/21 SS)

Red Apple While I dont usually shop here, they did have a couple great in store coupons.
Classico Pasta Sauce- BOGO use coupon from coupons.com $1.50/2
All laundry detergent-BOGO use (2)$1/1 (2/7 RP expires 4/30 so use it soon)

Ok friends, that is what appeals to me this week. Happy shopping

Bzz Agent

Ok, so I am a bzzagent. I have not called myself this before, b/c I have never been asked to participate in a campaign. Well, today I got my first campaign and it is for Covergirl Blast. They are sending me this product so I can use it and get the buzz started about this new product. If you have any opinion on Covergirl Blast products I would love to hear about it. Leave me a comment!

$2.59 are you otta your mind?

The other night, I went to Safeway and bought 6 lunchables for the kiddos. Some people ask, do you really use all the stuff you buy, my answer.....of course. I would not normally buy lunchables and in a sense I didn't the other night either. Confused yet? I went to the checkstand with 6 lunchables. I handed over 6 coupons. I left with 6 lunchables. I did not pay one penny. I did not have a member of the 50 chasin me down. Absolutely free! The cashier finished scanning the coupons and said, " your total will be.....nothing."

Is this legit? Absoluetly! There are ways to get cheap-free items. The average person does not take the time to figure out these scenarios. I was asked last week how much time to I spend couponing. I said a couple hours a week. After thinking about that more I think I spend more. It is fun, one might even say a hobby for me now. I am still in what I call the "honeymooning" phase of couponing. I go to multiple stores to get many deals each week. Admittedly, I am kept awake some nights thinking that I may not get everything I want from a sale because others might beat me to it. Silly, I know. I spend probably closer to 5-7 hours a week pouring over ads and scheming up ways to save money. It is not a chore but a challenge. I think that once I get crazy stocked up on everything I will be out of the honeymooning phase, but until then, Coupon On!

BOOM!

My favorite stores to frequent are Walgreens (mainly for non food items), Albertsons (grocery), Yokes (doubler action and fresh meat and produce). I included a pic of a recent trip to Walgreens while my friend Jen was in town. I was teachin her the ropes of couponing and spent $2.59 for everything in the photo.

Quaker Sale

Ok peeps, Quaker sale starts today. Not supertastic prices, but $1/box is still great. Especially for granola bars that we seem to fly through. This sale is at Albertsons. You can obtain the manufacturer coupon necessary to make this work from the Wednesday Tri City Herald or pick up one of the Yokes monthly ad books. Free at customer service. You will need one coupon for every 5 items you buy. Check out fistfulofcoupons.com to get the low down.

Another great sale is at Safeway. They are running a sale for pop tarts, cereal and my personal fav. nut clusters. Those are so tasty in yogurt! Here are a couple scenarios:

Buy 5 Kellogs pop tarts= $1/each
use $1.25/3 (3/28 RP)

Total oop is $3.75 not bad if you like pop tarts

another scenario
Buy 5 Nature Valley Nut Clusters= $1.50/ each
use $1/1 (2/21 SS)
or $.40/1 (3/7 SS)

Totally oop is $2.50-5.50 depending on coupons you couple this with.

Ok, well now you know my plans for the day.....pillage the local stores. Have a good one!
