Bloom, Coupons, Uncategorized
The other day I noticed in my mailbox the Bloom filer that mentions on the front that they are going to do Triple coupons! This might do this week. Still trying to decide when and how. It will be a busy week. The ad says cash in on Triple Coupons this weekend up to 99 cents. Limit 20 coupons per visit, per day. I did a search and found Hot Coupon World has info about it. Thanks HCW! Bloom Triple Coupons

Kmart Double Coupons up to & including $2 Value

Coupons, Kmart, Uncategorized
This is great! When I got my Sunday paper I read that Kmart is doubling coupons up to $2. That is fantastic. I did some searching and several websites are talking about it. I have only a couple Kmart stores in my area, so I'm not sure if I will get out and do this. However, good for those that can. Thrifty Mama's post on Kmart double coupons Thanks Thrifty Mama In my paper this is what the fine print says: Kmart Super Double Manufacturer Coupons up to & including $2 value Sunday, November 30 - Saturday, December 6, 2008 "Amount of credit from doubling a coupon cannot exceed the current retail price of a single item.

Home Depot Trip from 11/28/2008

Home Depot, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Sorry, for not posting this earlier but I've been busy with the baby and cleaning up after Thanksgiving. Like I mentioned in earlier posts I had a good time on Black Friday. After my crazy early morning run at Walmart and then my two CVS trips, I headed home. My dear husband and baby were up and waiting for me. After my hubby learned of my good deals he got the itch too and we set out to run some errands. Before we knew it we were at Home Depot. One of the items that I wish we could have gotten was a 7.5 ft LED light Tree normally $199 down to $45. Those must have sold out at 6AM! Good deals: 1 -Turbo Knife set 9.97 3 -36 piece…

CVS, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
I had a great day on Friday! I got up early and went to Walmart and got some great deals. I really want to post them but, unfortunately they are Christmas presents. Some are for family and some are for my husband. Here is the plan I tried to attack! After my Walmart deals I ended up at two different CVS stores. Actually, three different stores. The first one wasn't open yet. Oh well! Since, I got an email for 5/30 to use this weekend I had to go to CVS, especially when they had so many free items. I used 1 card during these trips. My plan for my 1st transaction: 2 Bic Soleil single razor w/2 cartridges & shower holder = $5.99 Get $5.99 ECB Limit 2 11/2…

Shoppers Trip 11/23/2008

Shoppers, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Ok, I have to admit I've never in my life presented so many coupons in one trip. I was THAT lady! In fact, I had a question for the cashier about the $10 off for the Turkey and she accidentally voided the transaction so a manager had to enter in my receipt by estimating it. Here is a picture of the trip! (Minus the Turkey, veggies and frozen food for obvious reasons.) [caption id="attachment_133" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Shoppers Trip 11/23/2008"][/caption] Here it goes what I bought and added up coupons I used. This is an estimate. 3 Reynolds Foil 75ft 3.79 (3 -1.00) 2 Parchment Paper 2.89 (2 -1.00) 2 Chex mix 2.19 (2 -.70) 2 Honey Chex 3.00 (2 -1.00) 2 Wheat Chex 3.50 (2 -1.00) 1 Fiber One Toaster…
