Okay now that I found my receipt (it was right in my wallet where it should have been . . duh!) here are a few more deals:
**Suave shampoos/conditioners etc - $1.58
Use $1 off 2 from recent insert
$1.08 each after coupon
(I used these on the kids detangler and shampoo!)
**Suave Body Washes - $1.50
Use $1 off 2 from recent insert
$1 each after coupon
(These smell as fabulous as Bath and Body works - I love them!)
There were some other deals but their shelves where really low or empty after I grab the last one or two.
Good luck!

Toy Sale at Target!
It is that time of year when Target clears out the toys and makes way for the "new" Christmas (yes, I said Christmas) toys. What does that mean for us?! Toys at 75% off!
Target on E State and 173 (I prefer 173) have their toys marked anywhere from 30% -75% off!
I am not talking lamo cheap toys - I am talking My Little Pony, Leapster, Lego's, Summer toys, Little Einstein, Diego, etc. . . .
If you are interested in getting a good deal, run don't walk to the nearest Target. Please obey all traffic laws.
I purchased $206 worth of toys for $56! I am not one to invest in toys so this will make Christmas shopping a lot less stressful for me. I was VERY excited to find a Leapster for $12.48!
Also, there are great clearance deals on shoes and clothes all throughout each department. Personally, I feel the selection at 173 is much better.

"Lean" posts
As you've noticed, the posts have been a little scarcer lately . . . sorry about that! Last week was VBS at our church and that ate up a lot of my time. This week I have 3 Stampin' Up! classes/workshops and am also getting ready to leave for a 10 day trip to Maine and Canada. Kristie had an incident which found her at the emergency room with her 2 year old (he's fine, but needed a cast). So the posts this week may be few and far between.
I did want to make you aware of a few things though:
Here is a good printable coupon for Kraft Dressing: $1.50/1 (or here in Safari)
Here's a chance to play a fun game and win some cool prizes from Wendy's (or at the very worst, get a coupon off a twisted frosty! (thanks Money Saving Mom)
Just a head's up that it looks like KMart is going to do the double coupon deal again Aug 16-22 (thanks Common Sense with Money)
Anyway, not much, but just a few deals to be aware of. Hope you're having a good week!

Crazy hair? How about cheap crazy hair?
As many of you know, our church is in the middle of VBS this week. Tonight is crazy hair night . . . I'm still trying to figure out what to do, but I think I have a good idea. I'm practicing a bit now and am hoping that my husband doesn't send me out on an errand for VBS today - people will wonder what's up with the hair!
Heidi just called me and said that they have pretty crazy wigs at Party City here in Rockford (prices vary from $10 to $30). But then she told me that she purchased some colored hairspray that was marked $2.99 . . . but it rang up $0.50! I'm not sure if that was on all colors, but if you're looking to color your hair a crazy color, it looks like Party City may be the place to go. (edit: the ones on sale for $0.50 are on the end cap near the costumes & wigs. There was yellow, red, glitter and gold left when I was there. Sorry blue team! No blue left!)
Just be sure to have them price check your bottle of hairspray! I, unfortunately, will not be doing the color thing since I just recently got a REAL (fake) haircolor and it's pretty blonde. Wouldn't want my hair to turn green as a result! :)

What to do with school supply sales!
Have you seen all the crazy school supply sales that are just starting up? Some places are almost giving stuff away for free! Be watching for more sales in the coming weeks.
But wait - maybe you have all the school supplies you need . . . or maybe you don't have school age children that need supplies. That doesn't mean you can't take advantage of the sales going on for other reasons: 1) gifts and 2) donations.
Instead of reinventing the wheel, here are 2 links with great ideas of what to do with all those crazy sales going on!

75% off sale Crimson Ridge!
This is just a heads up, if you happen to be going by Crimson Ridge on Perryville you might want to stop in. They are having a 75% off Summer clearance sale. It is a special entrance door. If you are looking at their main entrance go two doors down and you will see a large room full of things that are 75%.
According to the cashier the sale should be going through August and won't be going any lower than 75% off. I just happened to have a few extra minutes waiting for my daughter's class to finish so I ran in.
It's never too early to start Christmas shopping . . .I found a pair of Laura Ashley pj's regularly $62.00 for $15.50 and a pair of Vera Bradley pj's for $73.00 for $18.25! I see a theme coming up for Christmas and that's two names off my list!
They had lots of clutch purses for $5, home decor items, fashion watches, decorating ribbon, Easter decorations etc. Stop by and check it out!

FREE Highlighters at Walgreens this week!
There is a $1 off 2 BIC stationary products coupon up here. This will not last long. I think it was up Monday for a few hours before the print limit was over. If you take it to Walgreen's this week, you can get 2 of the 5 packs of highlighters free. They are .49 this week. Make sure to throw in a .09 pencil or a .09 individual BIC highlighter and hopefully that will keep the register from beeping!
If you don't have time for a trip to Walgreen's this week, then print it and save it as the school supply sales are just beginning!

An Easy Walgreens Deal.
Well, I have to say I really miss the EasySaver Catalog and how it was so easy to make your purchases and receive your rebates. EasySaver how we miss you!
I personally have been avoiding Walgreen's because of the new Register Reward System. I am not a fan for many reasons. However, this week they do have a great deal on the Pilot G2 Pens that my husband recently requested. If you purchase 1 - 2pk for $1 you get $1 RR. I wanted to devise a plan to make a purchase with little out of pocket and use the $1 RR immediately. Here are my two transactions:
Transaction #1:
1 - 2pk Pilot G2 pens
Total: $1.08 and Received $1 RR
Transaction #2:
3 - Scotch tapes - .39 each
1 - Mentos gum - $1.69
1 - 2pk Pilot G2 pens - $1
Total: $3.86
Used $1 off 3 Scotch Tape coupon from newspaper insert
Used $1 off Mentos gum coupon from newspaper insert
Used in add coupon for Mentos gum minus .70
Used $1 RR from Transaction #1
Total .35
Total paid after both Transactions: $1.43
Not having any RR that I need to use later: Priceless!
Make sure in Transaction #2 that you use the coupons in the order I listed them above, if you do the same Transaction. Always give your manufacturer coupons first, then Walgreen's in ad coupons then RR - there was no "beeping" of the computer when I did this transaction.

$100 milestone
Well, I've reached a milestone in my swagbucks experience! I just claimed my 20th $5 Amazon e-gift card - which means (yes, do the math) that I've gotten $100 so far! I even have another $5 coming to me! Woohoo!
I wanted to bring up swagbucks.com again today for a few reasons:
1) I reached a milestone (have I told you that yet?). Also, I've been at the swagbucks thing for about 5 months now, so I know it's legit and profitable
2)We have some new readers that have not heard of swagbucks (click here and here to find out more).
3) If you've signed up with swagbucks, I'd like you to post a comment about your experience - whether it is good or bad. Also, post any questions you might have.
4) I want to suggest telling people about swagbucks on your blog, if you have a blog. Swagbucks has cool banners that are easy to set up and which will get you some swagbucks when your friends sign up.
5) Fridays are Mega Swag Bucks days. If you search using swagbucks on Fridays, you have a higher chance of getting more than 1 swagbuck! I've gotten 2 so far . . . and last Friday I got 3 at once, plus another one.
6) Finally, I wanted to bring this up because Christmas is only 5 months and 8 days away . . . and getting Amazon e-gift cards from Swagbucks can help you with your shopping! They have a TON of stuff, and some pretty good prices, especially on books (I wish Amazon would pay me for advertising for them)!
So, Happy Mega Swag Bucks day! Please be sure to post any comments or questions you might have on this whole "swagbucks" thing.

So, Happy Mega Swag Bucks day! Please be sure to post any comments or questions you might have on this whole "swagbucks" thing.
Birthday Clubs
Since this month was my birthday, I was able to "cash in" on a lot of my birthday club memberships. What is my definition of a birthday club, you may ask?
My definition of it is a restaurant that sends you some coupons for some free stuff on your birthday! I've signed up for multiple email-clubs because of the coupons, and it's been worth it. Not only do they send stuff for my b'day, they also send coupons throughout the year. Here are some of the ones I'd recommend, with a list of a few of the coupons I've gotten from them in the past (the ones I can remember):
- for my b'day, free molten-cake dessert w/ purchase of an entree
- $5 off purchase of 2 entrees
- free queso (Jeremy's ultimate FAVORITE) w/ purchase of entree
Texas Road House: sign up here, (I think you get a free appetizer)
- for my b'day, a free appetizer, no purchase necessary!
- for my one year anniversary of signing up for the VIP club, free appetizer, no purchase necessary
bd's mongolian barbeque: sign up here and get something free
- for my b'day, a free stir-fry, no purchase necessary
- $5 off purchase when I signed up
Lone Star Steakhouse: sign up here (scroll to bottom right)
- for my b'day, a free entree up to $15, no purchase necessary
- $5 off a $15 to go purchase
T.G.I. Friday's: sign up here and receive a free appetizer or dessert!
- for my b'day, free dessert w/ purchase of an entree- free queso (Jeremy's ultimate FAVORITE) w/ purchase of entree
Texas Road House: sign up here, (I think you get a free appetizer)
- for my b'day, a free appetizer, no purchase necessary!
- for my one year anniversary of signing up for the VIP club, free appetizer, no purchase necessary
bd's mongolian barbeque: sign up here and get something free
- for my b'day, a free stir-fry, no purchase necessary
- $5 off purchase when I signed up
Lone Star Steakhouse: sign up here (scroll to bottom right)
- for my b'day, a free entree up to $15, no purchase necessary
- $5 off a $15 to go purchase
T.G.I. Friday's: sign up here and receive a free appetizer or dessert!
- free appetizer for signing up
- buy one entree get a second for only $1
Papa Murphy's: sign up here or in the store
Disclaimer: I signed up in the store, and receive emails with deals specifically from that store on Alpine. I'm assuming that if you sign up online, you'll get the same thing, but I'm not sure.
- nothing for my b'day
- usually get coupon deals once or twice a month for $ off a certain pizza.
Ruby Tuesday's: sign up here
- Buy one get one free entree
Well, those are a few of the ones out there. If you plan on signing up for these, here are a few tips to keep in mind:
- Don't sign up for all of them on the same day unless you plan on eating out a lot in the following week or two and need coupons. Most of these places send you a "sign up" gift coupon that is good for a few weeks. Spread it out!
- Watch for a welcome email from them, and if you don't get one, check your junk mail. Some filters are ultra sensitive and will block these types of emails because they have lots of graphics. If it shows up in your junk mail, be sure to "allow" the email address so you make sure you receive future coupons.
- Don't feel like you have to use all the coupons. The point is to save money, not to spend more just so you can use your coupon! I didn't use all my b'day coupons - I even forgot to use the free entree one from Lone Star (and that was a no purchase necessary one - grr!). But that's OK. I still got my bd's free stir fry, my dessert from Chili's, and my free appetizer from Texas Roadhouse (cheap date - we just paid for the drinks).
- Please, please, please, when you use a coupon, tip your waiter/waitress on the FULL amount of your bill, not the adjusted part. They worked just as hard for your $10 bill than they would have for a $20 one. In the whole scope of things, it's just $1 or $2 more out of your pocket.
ENJOY!
A Big Thank You!
I want to thank Kristie for all her helpful posts - she's been doing the bulk of the posting lately. I've been in a bit of a shopping lull (I think that Walgreen's Easy Saver termination has a bit to do with that :0), and the way the rest of the summer is shaping up, I don't know when I'll be back in the game - definitely by September though!
So please join me in thanking Kristie for all her helpful posts. Be sure to leave a comment if you appreciate her help and tips, and feel free to share "your story" of how this blog has helped!

Lesson learned and a tip for you!
So I just returned from the grocery store where I returned 9.3 lbs of ground beef - 6 lbs of which were made into my special seasoned hamburger patties. This was not something I wanted to do (there was a beef recall), but it has taught me a lesson.
***When you freeze your meat, put the "sell by" date on the bag!!!
I'm not sure if all the meat I brought back was exactly from April 27 to June 1, but the store was very "open" with their return policy and I didn't want to take any chance with my beef being some of the tainted kind - so they took it all back and refunded me my money (by today's price of beef). My lesson learned is that if had written the "sell by" date, I would have known exactly what packages to return.
Thankfully, it wasn't an expensive lesson (in fact, they paid me $2.07/lb, and I don't think I've ever paid that), but it was energy and time wasted - those 24 hamburger patties take me a while to make! Well, I'm off to make more patties with the meat I bought yesterday at $1.47/lb!

KMart trip #3
Trip #3 was great! I had to go back for the toilet paper and paper towel deal, so I grabbed a bunch more stuff. I again used a $5/$25 coupon off "Health and Beauty" that had printed out after my last transaction. I got about $45 worth of stuff for $2.33 (should have been $4.33, but I too late discovered they had made a mistake and hand entered a $2.00 coupon they thought hadn't doubled - I went back and told them, but they said not to worry about it! Yippee!)
So, here are the deals to be found (some are same as previous trip)
Gillette body wash - $4.45 (not all are at this price, so double-check)
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
$2.00 off coupon from tearpad attached to the shelf
Final price: $0.45
Olay Body Wash - $6.49
$2.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
$2.00 off coupon from tearpad on shelf near body wash
Final price: $0.49
SoftSoap Ensemble refill - $2.99
$2.00 printable coupon (print it here), "doubled" (so $0.99 extra)
FREE
One A Day Woman's vitamins - $5.89
$2.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
Final price: $1.89
Playtex cleansing cloths - $2.99
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
Final price: $0.99
Tylenol Arthritis - $4.79
$2.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
Final price: $0.79
Sparkle Paper Towels 3 pk - $2.99
AND Angel Soft 4 pk Toilet Paper - $1.79
$2 off 2 printable coupon IE or Safari, doubled
Final price: $0.78 (I did this deal twice)
Wet Ones travel pack - $2.29
$0.75 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
Final price: $0.79
Huggies Natural Care Wipes - $2.99
$1.00 off coupon from home mailer from Huggies
Final price: $0.99
I've been in a coupon slump, but I'd like to thank KMart for helping me get out of it! I'm back in the game - FINALLY! :) I think I'm done with the KMart deals for now! Hope you get to enjoy some good deals too!
In case you're wondering, I will be using much of what I bought; but I will be selling the body washes, medicine, vitamins and such at a yard sale. I'm estimating I'll make about $15-20 off the stuff I sell, which would bring my total down to about $10-13: hey! That's about the price of my mop! So basically, I bought a mop and got all the other stuff free! :)
KMart trip #2
Trip #2 found me getting about $38 worth of stuff for $5. I used a $5 coupon off $25 "Health and Beauty" purchase that Kristie gave me (another one printed at the end of this transaction), which is why I was willing to pay a little for some of the objects because I knew I had $5 to play with.
In this transaction, I purchased cereal which was supposed to be 4/$6, but was ringing up 4/$10. To be honest it was kind of a hassle because the manager had to come and override it. Maybe they've fixed the problem by now, but just be forewarned! With a $1 off 3 coupon, I basically paid $1 per box of cereal. Not too shabby, especially since my total was $5!
Here are some of my other transactions:
Rubbermaid bottle AGAIN! :) - $2.99
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert, doubled
Final price: $0.99
Axe Body Wash, Skin Contact - $4.29
$1.50 off coupon from recent insert, doubled

$2.00 off coupon from recent insert, "doubled" (so $1.29 extra)
FREE

KMart trips - Anouk's
It says trips because I've made 3. The first trip was OK, the second was good, and the third was marvelous. At the risk of boring some of you, I will post the deals I found in Rockford. I will post trip #2 and #3 separate. From the get-go, I want to let you know that I hardly used any internet coupons, so I won't have many links to post. Most all of these coupons were from recent newspaper inserts.
My first trip was OK - for over $60 worth of stuff I spent $20 dollars, but that because it included a cool mop I've been wanting (full price $11 - gasp) and some things that I wanted to get even though they weren't free. For example:
New Purex 3-in-1 laundry sheets - $5.99
$2 off coupon from recent insert
Final price: $1.99
Planters' mixed nuts and deluxe mixed nuts - 2/$6.00 (normally between $5-7 each: who would ever pay that!)
$1.50/2 off coupon from recent insert
Final price: $3.00 for 2 cans
Rubbermaid Mixer Mate bottle - $2.99 (needed one of these for my frozen concentrate juices I make - ended buying another one, I liked it so much . . . plus had another coupon! :)
$1.00 off Rubbermaid drink container coupon from recent insert
Final price: $0.99
Neosporin - $4.29
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert
Final price: $2.29
So anyway, these things above were things I really wanted to get anyway, so was willing to not get for free :)
Here are some other deals:
Gillette body wash - $4.45 (not all are at this price, so double-check)
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert
$2.00 off coupon from tearpad attached to the shelf (KMart coupon, does not get doubled)
Final price: $0.45
Starbucks Frappuccino - $2
$1.00 off coupon from recent insert
FREE
So I won't bore you with the rest . . . but I will post, as per Kristie's request, my two trips from today which were better than this one! I even have pictures! :)
Good news: I overheard that KMart gets their truckload of stuff tomorrow - so I would wait until tomorrow afternoon or Friday when the shelves should be restocked with some of the stuff that got "wiped out" by double-couponers like us! :) Or maybe call to find out when everything will be up on their shelves.

Double Coupons at K-Mart! (trip 2)
Well, I'm hooked on double couponing at K-Mart. I had avoided it several times as I couldn't squeeze any more time out of my week for another store but since I don't frequent Walgreen's anymore I thought I would try K-Mart. Here is today's purchase totaling $4.83! The total before coupons was $38.78.

Used $1 off printable coupons (no longer available - sorry!)
.49 after doubled of coupon

Diapers, Diapers, Diapers!!
One constant area where families are trying to always save money is on diapers! They are a large weekly expense and definitely a need not a want! We have posted this link in the past but I want to post it again as a reminder.
This chart from Baby Cheapskate shows you what you should be paying per diaper. It is your price to beat. It helps you know if you are really getting a good deal! In the past year diapers have gone up in price and gone down in the number of diapers per package so . . . getting a good deal has been much harder. However, when you can get diapers at your target price per diaper - STOCK UP!
Also, notice in the lower left of Baby Cheapskate's document she shows you were to get some printable coupons and coupons from the newspaper. When you buy a name brand diaper always have a coupon and use it combined with a sale to get your price to beat per diaper!
Register with the Huggies Network and with Pampers to get coupons by mail as well!
At the start of every week Baby Cheapskate will also post the diaper sales and coupon match ups and where you can find a stockupportunity of the week! Click on Top Diaper and Formula Deals of the week in her quick link section on the right hand side.
Generic brands of diapers have really improved! Walgreens has a reliable brand and their jumbo packs often go on sale for $5.99, BOGO free, or BOGO half off. Most time you can get two jumbos for around $10! Hilander also has a reliable brand and they will go on sale for $5.99 often and usually there is a printable coupon for $3 off! Check out the diaper reviews on Baby Cheapskate for more helpful advice on generic!
And as always stay tuned here for your stockupportunities in the Rockford area!!

A "Krazy" deal at Target this week!
Okay, and you thought we were crazy?! Here is a great scenario that the Krazy Coupon Lady put together to get a ton of Kashi products for less than $4!!! AND no newspaper needed - just print your coupons and head to the nearest Target.
I am just putting up the direct link because why waste time typing it up ourselves when the Krazy Coupon Lady did it a great job for us! She has all the links you need to print and lays it out just lovely for you to understand.
The only piece of information that we have for you is that we have never seen the Kashi Waffles at either Target?! So, you can print your coupons for those if you want but I have never seen these at either 173 or E. State.
Click here for a great deal on Kashi products!!

My K-Mart trip
So, if you are wondering what I bought at K-Mart . . . I know you were dying to find out. Here are a few highlights:
**White out - 2/$1
Use .50 off printable coupon for IE or Safari
FREE without doubling the coupon! This shouldn't count as one of your 10 coupons but will help get your total up to $25!
**One A Day Vitamins for Women - $5.89
Use $2 off coupon from newspaper insert
$1.89 after coupon
**LA Looks Hair Gel - $1.49
Use $1 off coupon from newspaper insert
FREE after coupon
**Benadryl Anti itch cream - $4 (for my daughters bug bites)
Use $1 off coupon from newspaper insert
$2 after coupon
**Lysol Bathroom Aerosol Cleaner - $2.67
Use $1 off coupon from newspaper insert OR
$1 printable coupon
.67 after coupon
**OreoCakesters - $3
Use $1 off coupon from newspaper insert
$1 after coupon
**Pampers Jumbo - $9.99
Use $2 off coupon from newspaper insert
$5.99 after coupon plus it put my total up to $50 so I could use the $5 off $50 coupon for signing up for their emails so .99 after coupons!!!
Those are a few of my highlights. There are lots of K-Mart tearpad coupons for toilet paper and other items. Remember you can use one K-Mart coupon and one manufacturer coupon on 1 item. The K-mart coupon won't double and won't count towards your 10 but the manufacturer coupon will.
For example:
I purchased Charmin - 24 rolls - $8.99
Used a $1 off K-Mart coupon AND
$1 off Charmin coupon I received in the mail. This doubled and I bought 24 rolls for $5.99 which is .24 a roll.
**White out - 2/$1
Use .50 off printable coupon for IE or Safari
FREE without doubling the coupon! This shouldn't count as one of your 10 coupons but will help get your total up to $25!
**One A Day Vitamins for Women - $5.89

It's the Blue light special at K-mart!
Well, this week is double coupon week again at K-Mart. The rules have changed so take note. If you have a long list then you will have to break up trips throughout the week to get everything you need for free or close to it!
- Double coupons up to $2 - no overage
- Limit 10 coupons doubled per customer per day
- Must spend at least $25 in grocery & drugstore merchandise
Those are the 3 main restrictions - pick up a flyer when you are in the store for more info.
Because the list is so extensive we will post four links for you to look through. I suggest printing the lists selecting your 10 items that total more than 25 and head to the store. Have a few items as backups in case they are out of something. The E. State store was out of Huggies wipes and Pantene that I noticed so if you want those call and ask when their shipments come in.
A few things I noticed that were different at our Kmart than the lists attached:
- The General Mills deal - 4/$6 if you buy 4 - only applied to the regular Cheerios not the other varieties. At least that is what the sign said in the store. Still if you can print 4 of the .55 of coupons the boxes will be .40 each when you buy 4!
- Lysol Bathroom Cleaner Aerosol - $2.67 - we only received $1 off coupons which doesn't make it free but .67 for the bottle - still a great deal.
- They don't carry SmartWater but you can get it this week at Target for .50 a bottle with coupon - not free but cheaper! :)
- They don't carry Wishbone dressing.
You will have to take your time, your coupons and your patience and browse through the store. I suggest leaving small children at home so all three of those will become easier! :)
Here are the links to the Kmart deals listed online:
Common Sense with Money Best Deals of the week
Common Sense with Money what free at Kmart this week
Common Sense with Money Pampers and Huggies deal at Kmart this week
Money Saving Mom K-Mart Deals this week
Don't get discouraged these lists are LONG! Just pick out what is right for you and your family or what you can get for free. Remember the rules!

Walgreens Deals week of 7/5/09
Well I find it odd that the Walgreen's flyer online only has four pages looks like a new format maybe larger but this is it for decent deals at Walgreen's this week:
**Buy $10 in Keebler Products get $5 in RR
Use $1 off 2 Fudge shoppe printables
Pay $3 after coupon and RR for 4 packs - $.75 each
**Starbucks Ice Cream - $4.99 BOGO
Use (2) $2 off coupons from recent newspaper insert OR
Use (2) $1 printable coupons here
Price varies depending on which coupon variation you use could be as low as .99 each or up to $1.49 each
This also depends on if you Walgreen's lets you use 2 coupons on a BOGO offer. The Walgreen's on Riverside and Mulford usually does NOT let you do this.
