8 Pack Lance Crackers just 40 cents at BiLo

I know everyone is so focused on Harris Teeter's triples this week but I thought I would pass along a great deal at BiLo. Lance crackers regularly $2.99 are BOGO free so each one rings up at $1.50. If you printed the .55 off coupon from their FB page a few weeks ago, you can get them for just 40 cents after the coupon doubles! I got 4 packs this morning and the total including tax was $1.64. Can't beat it!

3 Body Washes and 3 Deodorants for $1 at Walgreens

Walgreens is having a great sale this week on Gillette products. Body wash for men is on sale 3/$10. Buy 3 body washes and 3 deodorants.

Use 3 $2 off Gillette body wash coupons
Use 3 Buy a body wash, get a deodorant free coupons
Final price $4 and earn a $3 RR

Also scotch tape is buy 1 roll get 2 rolls free (with the coupon from their sales ad). The cost is $1.99 for 3 rolls. Use 3 $1 off ip coupons to get all 3 rolls free + $1 overage (may vary, Walgreen's doesn't technically do overages!)

I bought the tape, body wash and deodorant all in 1 transaction and got the overage. I used a RR from last week, paid 43 cents and got another $3 RR.

A few notes about this deal: I'm not sure it matters what order you give the coupons in but I gave the $2 off body wash before the free deodorant coupon and the $1 off coupons before the Walgreens coupon. Also GOOD LUCK finding the body wash. I lucked out and was able to get the last 3 bottles they had at the Walgreens near my work but when I stopped at a second one, they were sold out. I imagine they are gone or almost gone at most stores. I really wish they would order more than just a handful of sales items each week as bare shelves are an ongoing problem at Walgreens. Remember you can get a raincheck but if you aren't able to find them in stock before the sale ends, you won't get the $3 RR so you will pay the full $4 for 6 items which is still not a bad deal but as often as free deodorant and body wash is available, it may be better to catch the next sale IMO!

Also the cashier gave me a bit of a hard time about using both the BOGO free coupons and the $2 off coupons. This is where having a copy of the coupon policy is SO handy. I pulled it out and showed it to her where it plainly states that 2 coupons may be used on BOGO free items as long as the total does not go below zero. There is another place in the policy that states 1 mq may be used PER ITEM being purchased. I explained that one coupon was paying for the deodorant and 1 coupon was going toward the body wash. She agreed and let me use them and the register had no problem with both q's. I was prepared to ask for the manager tho. They may not like it, but they can't dispute their own policy :)

Free Mueller's Pasta at BiLo + Possible Overage

***Updated to say that no matter which one you do first (coupon or bonus card) you still get overage so plan accordingly :) FYI tho if you use the coupon first it doesn't beep. They always ask for your bonus card first and I just told her I wanted to give it last. She said ok :) ***

There is a great coupon for $1.00 off any one Mueller's product. These are on sale BOGO free at BiLo through Tuesday which makes them 70 cents each. NOTE, you don't have to buy 2 to get the discount, they ring up 70 cents each so you can just buy one if you want. At worst, it's free, at best you have overage.

The coupon will beep if you let them scan your Bonus Card first because the value is higher than the product. I bought 4 boxes yesterday and the coupon beeped so the cashier got the manager. The manager said he needed to reduce the coupon value to 70 cents to get the register to take it but when he did that, all 4 coupons doubled and the overage paid my tax and something else I bought!

 I'm going to attempt to link directly to the coupon but I'm never sure if it will work or not. Try going here and if it doesn't work, just go to their website and click on "coupons and promotions'. It will tell you that no public coupons are available but will tell you to sign up to receive future offers. If you sign up, they will email you a coupon for enrolling, which is the $1.00 off any. **Note, this is not a bricks coupon and you can print it as many times as you want. A box popped up when I hit print and asked me how many copies I wanted. The coupon does say "Only One Per Person" so do what you think is best :)

You can either use the coupon first to keep it from beeping or use your Bonus Card first and let them adjust it down and see if you get overage or not. It's up to you but no matter how you do it, it's still FREE!

Daily Deals 5/6/11

**Just wanted to update this real quick and say that I HIGHLY recommend creating a email address that you only use when registering for free products, coupons ect. It will help control the spam you get. When I first started couponing I made the mistake of using my personal email address and within 2 weeks I was getting over 100 emails a day. Now I have what I call me "coupon address" and only check it every few days and I don't have to worry with alllllll that spam! Sites such as Yahoo and Gmail are free!

There is an offer out for a free Proglide Fusio Razor. I think this has lasted much longer than most freebies because it's in Spanish. Here is how to get yours: Text  PRUEBA to 59999. They will send you an auto-text back and it will be in Spanish but it's asking for your age so just respond with your age (ex 30). Next they will ask you for your address so text your first and last name, and your mailing address. After you do that, you will receive a final text confirming that your free razor will be received in 6-8 weeks. It also gives an 800 number that you can call with any questions. I was super skeptical of this but I just did it myself and had no problems :)

Details on how to get a 1 year subscription to Disney's Family Fun magazine for $1.00 are available here

Free sample of Huggie's Goodnights is available here

Get a Kohls shopping pass here to save an extra 15% off everything in the store, including clearance. Plus you get $10 Kohls cash for every 50 you spend.

Here is a great CVS coupon. $5 off your $20 purchase here I would give the cashier that coupon FIRST and then give her your other coupons and ECB. This coupon could easily get a $20 purchase down to $5 or lower if used correctly!

Daily Deals 5/5/11

Go here to print a coupon for $1 off 1 Axe

Visit Coupons.com and search zip code 23464 to print a $1.50 off any Jergens Natural Glow. No size restrictions so you can get the travel size at Target for just $0.49!

If you don't mind things being a little complicated, go here to print several great coupons including $1.00/2 Ragu, $1 off any Dove product and $1.00 off Bryers ice cream. I'm hoping HT or Bloom does another super doubles event before they expire. The link takes you to a grocery store website for Hannaford Grocery store but they are manu. coupons and can be used anywhere. There is a list of available coupons and you choose which ones you want (as many as you want). That adds the coupons to your shopping cart. When you are done click "view cart" at the top and it will ask you for a zip code. Enter 03110 and chose whatever store comes up. Then go back to your cart and click on each item one at a time. When you do this, there will be an option to print the coupons. Complicated I know but they are good coupons :)

**Try this link for just the Dove coupon. It should let you print that one but you will still have to follow the above steps for the remaining coupons. This will mean more FREE men's deodorant at Walgreens starting 5/15 so grab the coupon now if you want it! I told my husband last night that neither one of us will stink for a looong time with all the free body wash and free deodorant we've gotten lol.

Go here to print a $1.00 off Snapple 6 pack

Go here and fill out a short form to receive $10 in laundry coupons. The coupons will be mailed to you.

Go here to get a BOGO free coupon for Off Clip on Repellent. There is also a $2.00 off 1 coupon at coupons.com. I don't know how trying to stack them would work?? You are allowed 1 coupon per item so the BOGO coupon would pay for the free one and the $2.00 off coupon would go toward the one you are purchasing but I strongly think this deal will all depend of the cashier you get!

That is all I have for now :)

Awesome Shopping Day!

I am simply THRILLED with all the freebies I got today. Here are my deals at Harris Teeter...
Total paid oop including tax = $1.87. The only thing that wasn't free was the Clorox laundry stain remover, it was 50 cents per bottle but we go through almost a bottle a week at my house so I didn't mind ;)
Freebies include: bag of Tostitos chips, jar of Tostitos salsa, a 2 liter Pepsi Max, 2 rolls of scotch tape, a bottle of McCormick seasoning, 2 packs of crab meat, 2 bottles of Seventh Generation dish detergent, 2) 4 packs of Juicy Juice cans and 2 boxes of Jimmy Dean Breakfast bowls! If anyone needs the location of the coupons, either email me or comment below. Most of them are still available however super doubles ends tomorrow night so not much time left. I plan on repeating this exact same transaction (minus the stain remover) tomorrow so hopefully my total tomorrow will be around $0.85!! Can't wait!

And I wasn't done there, I also stopped at Walgreens 3 times today hehe....


It's hard to tell from the pic but there are actually 4 packs of toilet paper, so 48 rolls, 3 packs of razors and a pack of the GUM Eez Flossers. Total oop including tax = $7.05 and I still have $6 in RR so really I paid $1.05 :)))) Oh and I have rain checks for 8 free bottles of body wash which is sold out in every Walgreens in the state I think lol.

Freebie Alert!!

Sooooo many freebies, where do I even start??

How about with a GREAT coupon for you. Go here to print your coupon for FREE Breathe Right Strips at Rite Aid. The coupon takes a minute or two to load and it does print a full page of color ink (sorry) but just take it to Rite Aid and get your free pack :)

Go here to print a soft scrub coupon for $1.50 off. *You must first sign up and verify your email. Then go under "member exclusive benefits" to download the coupon. Grab yours for just $0.49 at CVS this week with coupon.

Free Ivory soap bars (3 pack) at CVS or Walmart with the $1.00 off coupon from the P&G insert yesterday. If you live near a Kroger, they have their Ivory body wash 10/$10 so also free!

Also at CVS they have their Colgate toothpaste on sale for $2.77 and you get a $2.77 ECB (limit 2). Use the $0.75 off coupon that came in the mail yesterday and you will actually make $1.50 if you buy 2 tubes after ECB. Math: Buy 2 tubes @ $2.77 = $5.54, use 2 $0.75 coupons so pay $4.04 and get back $5.54 in ECB.

FREE Sunny D oj at BiLo through tomorrow only. Register to be an ambassedor here and they will email a coupon to you for $0.55 off. Sunny D is on sale at BiLo this week 10/$10 so after the $0.55 coupon doubles you make $0.10!

Walmart is rumored to have Noxema Razors for $1.97 = free with $2.00 coupon or you can also get them at Walgreens for $1.99 and earn a $3 RR

Walgreens Woes

I got up bright and early this morning to get my Sunday papers and go to Walgreens. BTW if you have not gotten your paper, go now!! There are FIVE coupon books this week: one Red Plum, 2 Smart Savers, a P&G (which I thought we didn't even get in this area) and one Moments To Save. Don't miss out on all those coupons :)

So what's the very next thing I do once I have my papers? Why go to Walgreen's of course. I was planning on doing 2 transactions today but ended up just doing one. I bought a pack of GUM Ez flossers, a pack of Noxema razors, 4 Right Guard body washes and 2 Tylenol Precise products. The flossers were $2 and you got a $2 RR, no problem here. The razors were $3.99 - $2 coupon =1.99 and you got a $3 RR. No problem here. The tylenol precise was $7.99 and there are 2 coupons for use. One is a $5 off printable MQ that I posted a link for a few days ago. That brought the price to $2.99. Second there is a $3 store coupon from the May coupon book for $3 off (remember you can stack these since one is a store q and one is a mq). Problem #1, she rang in the sq first which made the mq beep because the coupon value exceeded the price. She handed it back to me and said I couldn't use it. I politely told her that it only exceeded the price by one penny and she could just adjust the price of the mq from $5.00 to $4.99. At first she said she wasn't allowed to do that so I again politely informed her that I coupon all the time and I know for a fact you are allowed to do this. So she finally does it and all is well.

Now onto my big woe. The body wash did not ring up BOGO free, it rang up one @ $3.49 and one at $0.50. When I handed her my coupon she only took off $0.50. So again I politely called her on this. She then explained that when you use a mq you have to reduce the lowest price paid first so it would only take off $0.50. I pulled out their ad and showed her where the ad said BOGO free and told her it does not say 2 for $4.00, it says BOGO free. She looked confused and obviously did not understand the problem and said, "Well it's all the same in the end" I then had to spell it out for her that it DID matter because I had a coupon which would make them both free. She looked a little shocked at this and told me she was going to have to call her manager, and waited a minute like she expected me to say "oh don't worry about it, I will just pay it" She doesn't know me very well hehe cause I told her I thought calling the manager was a good idea.

So the manager comes and the cashier tells him that I'm trying to get 4 bottles of body wash for free so then I had to explain to HIM that according to their ad it was BOGO free so the first should have rang up $4.49 and the second should ring up free. I am using a BOGO free coupon to pay for the one I bought at $4.49 so the coupon value should be $4.49. Thankfully he tells her I am exactly right and to manually ring in one body was at $4.48 and the second at one penny and the coupon value at $4.49. So end the end I got them both free. He then tells her he is going to reprogram the system so they don't have that problem all week long (thank goodness!).

The reason I am posting this is to let you know that things don't always go according to plan BUT don't back down, stand your ground and ALWAYS have a copy of the coupon policy and store ad with you at checkout and don't be one bit afraid to ask for the manager. The company makes the policies, not us, so it isn't our fault if the result is free merchandise. A lot of cashiers think we are "robbing" the store by using coupons to get free items so remind them if you need to that the store gets reimbursed for the coupon + $.08 so they are actually making money by us using coupons :) Bottom line, my amount due was $3.99 + tax for everything and I used my $4 RR from last week to only pay the tax and I got back another $5 RR. So 4 body washes, a pack of razors, flossers and 2 Tylenols were tax only yay!!! My plan was to apply the $5 RR to the toilet paper in another transaction but I figured they had enough of me for one day so I left. TP is first on my list tomorrow tho :)
