Coupon Hunting!

Finding coupons is not as hard as you think. Once you get into a groove that works for you before you know it you will be swimming in a sea of savings! Yes, I did just make that up. To help you on your coupon collecting journey there are multiple great blogs out there and some great online coupon sites listed below!

Shellie does a great break down of terms and sources:

http://www.savingwithshellie.com/2011/04/05/how-to-tuesday-extreme-couponing-part-1/

Another great overview of coupon sources at Penny Pinching Mom:

http://www.pennypinchinmom.com/couponing-101/where-can-i-find-coupons/

Sunday Newspaper Schedule and Preview Site:

http://www.sundaycouponpreview.com/

*This site is great for sneak peeks of the coupons due out on Sunday. Keep in mind that the inserts will vary from place to place but I have found this site to be pretty good overall.

Internet Coupons:

There are TONS of great online coupon sites available. Make sure you check your store's policy to see that they accept printed coupons. Also, if you use Swagbucks, MyBonusPoints or other 'points' websites print your coupons through them to get extra 'points.' The above links have a lot of sites posted but here are my personal favorites:

http://www.coupons.com/

http://www.couponsinc.com/corporate/OurCompany/OurClients.aspx

http://smartsource.com/smartsource/index.jsp?Link=5S2ZUA6PWPEPO

Coupon Clippers are available all over the place. I have found Ebay isn't too bad if you have just a couple of coupons you are looking for multiples of. Make sure to use your usual Ebay savy when purchasing anything on Ebay. I also have a favorite site that I use when looking for whole inserts and watch the site's sales: http://www.couponsthingsbydede.com/

**Don't forget to check in on your store sites for additional coupons that you might be able to double with your manufacturer's coupons!**

Happy Coupon Gathering!

Kmart Double Coupon Days

Wowzer! Kmarts Double Coupon Days crept up on me! It is pretty tough making this work to your advantage with Kmart's huge price gouging and coupon restrictions but there appears to be a couple great deals.

Right now Kmart will double coupons with a value up to $.99, will allow for 4 of one particular item and you can use as many coupons as you want. With this, it appears there are just a couple great deals:

1. Chinet plates on sale 2/$3 use $.55/1 coup from SS 4-17 final price = $.49 each

2. Nestle Candy Bars for $.67 use $.50/2 from SS 5-1 Fineal Price = $.17 each

3. Schick Hydro 3 Razors on unpublished sale for $4.99 use $4/1 from SS 6-12 Final Price $.99 (make sure they are marked down b/f you grab--there is no use arguing at Kmart)

Check out the following link for participating locations and 'restrictions' I'm not sure if it is worth the trip at this point!

Let's Get Those Coupons Organized!

Wow! There are soooo many ways to organize coupons! I have tried several methods over the years and thought I would send out some suggestions while I put my finishing touches on my own.

Check out the binder method:
http://goodenoughmommy.blogspot.com/2011/06/coupon-binder.html

http://laurawilliamsmusings.blogspot.com/2007/07/lauras-couponing-and-refunding-hints.html

The Card File Method:
http://www.stretcher.com/stories/02/02aug05a.cfm


Multiple methods:
http://tipnut.com/coupon-organizer-system/


Personally, I have found the Binder Method to be too much work with the stuffing etc, the file method has worked for me, but I have found it to be difficult to keep my good coups from expiring because I can't 'see' them all. Currently I am putting together my 'envelope method' which has been working pretty nicely over the last two months.

How do you organize your coupons??

Super Staples Deals June 12-18

Every so often Staples has some kickin' deals and this week is one of those times. Sunday and Monday (June 12-13) they are running a camera special where you buy a camera or camcorder (of your choice) that is REGULARLY $149 (that means you can purchase one for less on sale as long as the original price was $149) and receive a $30 gift card!

They also are running some Dollar Day specials (including paper for $2) and a great ITunes special where you buy 2 for $25 each and receive $10 off! That makes them only $20 each for $25 bucks worth of songs.

Laundry Detergent Test!

With different coupons and deals out there for laundry detergent, I wonder if I am really getting a good deal with the cheaper detergents or if I should spend the money on the high end detergent to get my laundry cleaner.

Since I just don't have the time to test my own theory I checked my favorite blogs and found a fantastic blog post by Kimberly over at http://www.mommysavers.com

Check it out here: http://www.mommysavers.com/2011/05/laundry-detergent-challenge-which-brand-performs-the-best/ for food for thought!

I wasn't surprised at the results as they pretty much turned out a I suspected! So off I go to Walmart with my Laundry Detergent coups and a bounce in my step!

Happy Washing Everyone!

Lemonade Days June 10, 11, and 12

Alex's Lemonade is a foundation that helps fund research for children with cancer. There are tons of great projects and fun activities for kids.
