I found THE tear pad with the $1.50 off Kraft at randalls, alot were gone but I got a few!!
AND I found the Snapple BOGO tearpad, which were ALL gone except 2 that were stuck to the back of the previous tear pad. I very carefuly pulled them off to use them since they give overage and are part of the mega deal.
Kraft Dressing - $2.00 used $1.50 off tearpad = $0.50

Minus $5.00 mix and match deal
yes this transaction SHOULD have had overage or close to zero, BUT I forgot to give the $0.35 on the softsoap, so I had to bring the coupon in and get a refund, which they gave me the tripled value of the coupon, plus the neg tax it had!.. my total after that refund came to $0.37 OOP!!!! still awesome deal
When I went back to get my coupon refunded, I got some bread we needed, and 2 more softsoaps!! OOP $1.19 for the bread.

I have to admit I coulda done a better deal If I woulda traded out the grands for one of the other kind of roll probably french bread. The coupon for the grands for $0.30 off 2, I thought 1, but I didnt bring ant "back up" coupons. oh well, I *may* go back later to exchange it, and bring the other coupon, or I may just keep them. still $1.35 "profit" isnt bad.

more walmart and wags today

Walmart had snuggle fabric softener roll back to $4.00 for 50load bottle. There are $2 IPs, bought 2, for $2/ea. I LOVE fabric softner. More IAMs dog food $5, used $5 Q FREE. finally got eyeliner, $2.86, used $1Q, $1.86 for two eyeliner pencils and a sharpener.Had to make a stop at Wags to return a RedBox DVD before it charged me for the night. I went in to check for soaps. they had no reg sizes but 7 trial sizes, I got 5 along with 3 deos, total was around $12, including the candy, and using 1 $1.25Q and 1 $1.50Q for the Deos. used 2 $6RR from reach, paid $0.46 OOP, got $10RR back.

Walmart, Wags deals

Wags has Soleil Razors (and refills) on clearance for $3.59, we have $2.00 off coupons from the 3/15 SS (smart source) coupon inserts, AND Wags has the easy saver coupon for $2.00 of each pack, making this a $0.41 MM EACH.
picked up another set of 3 for the Reach deal, chocolate bunnies for the razor overage & needed for Easter baskets. also bought 2 small bunnies for Easter, as a filler to use my $10RR from Dove to pay. used $10RR plus $1.50 OOP got $6RR back (easter bunnies were 2/$5 I only needed a $4 filler, but sprung for the cute bunnies)
Walmart deals, well the only "deals" I got were the dog food which was FREE, $5, used $5, coupon. Huggies wipes about $2.39 with $3 coupon gave $0.61 overage. All you Mags (have great coupons inside) $2.24 ea, used $0.50 Q inside magazine, makeing them $1.75ea, plus a decent read. Everything else was free via WIC.

Wags.. Dove Soap

The 24HR wags near me had some single bars Dove soap, the one 25% off and on the RR deal. Well I thought they had 7 regular single bars, and so I grabbed 1 travel bar. I get up to the register, and when the cashier scans them we notice 2 dont have a bar code. I realize they must have come from a 2pk. she let me have them scanning 2 of the other bars in place. Which is a better deal since they are 4.25oz bars and the regular are about 3.5oz. Paid with $6RR from reach and about $4 OOP got $10 RR back, for practically FREE bar soap.
see 2 bars larger Dove on the right, the middle is the reg size, and one on the left is the travel size. they were all the same price $1.19
Veronica said whe wanted to be in this picture.. lol

Breakfast pockets, (pizza pocket spin-off)

I used a quick biscuit recipe
rolled them out and cut circles, smaller than the pizza pockets, and filled them the same. For the filling I scrambled about 8 eggs, used 5 strips of bacon, and 5 slices of cheese.
Baked them for about 15-17 minThen removed, let cool about 5 min, then ate a few. The girls LOVED them , and had them for lunch since it was around that time. got a late start for breakfast, the girls had eaten cereal already. I also plan to freeze the rest for later.

Kroger, CVS WAGs today..

hit up Kroger this am after my very needed massage! I didn't have the kids with me so it went super fast and I was able to get what I needed super quick. at least $69.99 worth of groceries and such for $12.24 OOP! 82.5% savings! (Valerie said "cheese me mom" so I had to take her pic.. she did do her own hair, lol)
then later in the afternoon I hit up CVS and Wags. I wasnt able to get eyeliner like I wanted (at CVS), the sale wasnt good enough, lol. but I did pick up some other things. the fire hats were on clearance for $0.39 ea, the car smellies were on clearance for $0.24-$0.34.. the irish spring and colgate were free after ECB (irish spring $0.50 MM after .50 Q)Hit up Walgreen's, traded in my $10RR from Dove for two light up easter cups (filler and for girl's easter basket) 2 Listerine and one reach floss, and I received a $6 RR at the end of transaction. Johnson lotion was free after Q.

BEEF.. and pizza pockets

so Nena and I decied to go to the SAMS club and get a case of their lean ground beef. Their case runs about 80lbs. we didnt want 40 lbs ea, so I got my mom to go in and we split it 3 ways, about 26-27lbs each, and $47 each. good deal esp when I pay $3.19/lb at walmart, I love LEAN beef. maybe sometimes got it a little cheaper, but to knock it down I think this was a very smart way for us to go about it. This is my beef divided into 1 lb food saver bags, 26lbs worth, the last 11 I used in this next pizza pocket recipe.
I also saw on a fellow couponer's blog, a recipe for pizza pockets. I tried my hand at the recipe and they came out sooo yummy. not the prettiest, but VERY yummy to my tummy.
I had left over filling, and prob going to freeze that for future pizza pockets. I have already eaten 2 and the kids ate 1 (which are missing from pic)

recipe from JANE4girls blog

Sunday Deals.. CVS WAGS.. also Petsmart and Walmart

so I hit up CVS and WAGS early this morning. well not THAT early, but I ran into Nena and we made gal pals shopping sunday!
CVS (was 1st) Irish Spring $4.99ea -$0.50 Q ($4.49) , $4.99 back in ECB made this a $0.50mm each. the toothpaste was free after ECBs no coupons to make it a mm. The soft and dry roll on was $2.99 w/ $2 ECB printed, w/2x $2 IPs made this a $1mm each.
WAGS (hit up 3 stores) Dove single bar soaps were 25% off which made them $1.19ea, buy 8 participating Dove products get $10 RR back (there are other Dove RR deals, buy 6 get $6 RR etc) 8x$1.19= $9.52, get $10 RR back making that a $0.48mm.. Dove deo $2.06 after 25% off, x8= $16.48 (had 2 $1.50/2 and 4 $1.25/1 = $8 in Qs) - $8 = $8.48 get $10 RR making this a $1.52 mm for 8 dove deos!!!!!! 3 Reach/listerine 3 for $9 deals.. buy one of each, 2pk toothbrush, listerin 500ml and reach flosh (special marked floss) for $3 ea =$9. there is a $3/ the 3 items, making the OOP $6 and you get back $6 in RR making them free. I did have to use fillers, which is the dog pork treats, dog kiss toy, dog butcher bone, and 2 bunny suckers (for easter baskets!)
ah and can't forget FREEs from NENA!!! cat treats, from the Kroger deal, she used her Qs as filler, to get other items free, how smart is that!!
Walmart and Petsmart
got 5 2lb bags of kitten food at Walmart around $5, had $5 coupons for each making them FREE
I bought them out, so I had to go down to Petsmart to see their stock.
Petsmart, they had 3 2lb bags @ $4.49 and I picked up 2 4lb bags of puppy food for $5.99 total $25.45 before Qs, used 5 $5 coupons for a total of $0.49 !! soo close to free, but less bags I have to hunt for later, and trust me I will have to hunt, lol. the overage from the $4.49 kitten food bags ate up most the .99 over from the puppy bags, how cool!

Walgreens, Walmart... missed posting my Kroger deals

I am posting my Wags deals. BUT I missed posting my Kroger mega deals from last night. It was late, 1am. Nena and I had a late trip, but did good, esp me seeing as I was missing lots of inserts, and one of the items we used as fillers they were almost out of.. we made do and made it work. I got about $117.09 or more worth of groceries, and only paid 29.33 OOP!!! 75% savings! (at least)
Walgreens deals. last minute
I saw on someone elses blog about the AcneFree. the tubes were $3.19, and the foam wash were $4.19, when you buy 3 in a transaction you get a $8 RR printed back. I got 9 total, 3x$3.19 and 6x$4.19 (which I broke up into 3 transactions and 2 stores) which =s $34.71 -$9 (on each used $1/1 Q)= $25.71 - $24 in RR that printed back.. = $1.71 for 9 items!! I didnt pay any OOP, and used RR to make the gift card total REALLY low... 3 More sense and spray $0.01 overage each, glade oil fan thingy $0.01 overage. memory booster $19.99 FAR (free) 2 princess bowls $1.99 ea and peeps $0.69 used as filler to use $10 RRs..

recycle center and Walgreens day

so I got to get some great inserts from the recycle center today. I left there with a handful of coupons to use right then for free items at walgreens.
Everything you see in the picture are from the inserts I pulled out at the recycling center!! I spent about 45 min there which went by so fast, I didn't think I had stayed there that long, but I had.
Walgreens - more fructis (which I have even more of those coupons that came in Sunday's paper which I bought 4 of, and 1 from my mom) I am counting these from the coupons I got from the recycling center today. Walgreens has limited how many fructis you can buy at once. BUMMER more unnecessary trips for this stuff, but I cant pass up FREE. I will just have to pass Wags on the way home form picking up Ryan.
Glade spray and scented oil, after ES Q are $3.99, and with $4 insert Q, makes them $0.01 mm got 5 total 2, spray and 3 oil.
gamer razor, $0.99 after RR and insert Q, got 2.. free gum coupons had 2.. johnsons body lotion $1 off any 1, )$0.99 ea making them free after Q (adjusted down) filler pencil

hit up CVS Kroger Walgreens and Walmart

CVS - I had ECB to roll along with some rainchecks. I picked up the 3 Crest from there 1 was $0.99 after ECB, but $0.01 mm after I used the $1 Q. then the other 2 were free after ECBs, rolled EBC to buy them, which printed out more EBCs to use next time. I also have rainchecks for the complete eyewash, which were free after ECBs..
Walgreens - colgate and Razor. colgate was $0.99 after the easy saver Q with all you mag Q it was a $0.51 mm each. the razor was $8.99 -$4 insert Q and you get $RR back making the razor $0.99. ..$15.97 was the total before Qs -$3 (2 $1.50 all youQ) -$4 razor, -$5 ES Q, and used $3.50 RR from last week colgate deal (using a filler item) paying only $1-$2 OOP, getting $4 RR back.
Kroger - Tennessee gravy rainchecks for $1 ea, Q for $1 off, so FREE. 3 Glade plug-ins used free Q. and sale eggs $0.88/dzn w/ $10 purchase, which my total was $12-$13 before the coupons, and after it was $2.64, I had to only pay for the 3 dzn eggs! good deal
walmart - 3 plus in refills, used free item Q (peelie)

WHAT... you havent been couponing?!?! starting to again though!!

I dunno if I can keep this blog up like I was doing.. but I would like to start posting deals again..
:)
you read correctly.. I took a major break right after thanksgiving, and havent couponed much at all since. I started back up this wee and this was a great week to start. I havent been getting papers or coupon inserts and this week Wags had some great deals without coupons.
Today Nena and I (from "Watch Nena Save" blog) went to walgreens and got some of the Garnier deal, which is on sale $2.99, with a $2.00 coupon from the Easy Saver catalog from the front of their store, and the $1.00 off from inserts this was a $0.01 profit for EACH bottle we got.
I have to give a BIG thanks to Nena for trading half her coupons with me so I could be in on the deal as well! we both got TONS!
we also got some of the Colgate RR deals as well. I didnt have the $0.75 Q, but they are on sale $3.29 and you get a $3.50 RR printed back which is still a $0.21 profit. oh i had 1 coupon for the sense and spray on sale $7.99 w/$4.00 easy saver Q, and $4.00 insert Q a $0.01 mm, I only had 1 bummer, but 1 is better than none!!
we did have to go to 3 stores just to get all of the Garnier because of some having limits on how many you could buy.
total Garnier count
20 shampoo/conditioners
14 stylers
