Hey, Everyone!
I hope that you are ready for the great coupons that will be filling the newspaper inserts and online printing websites this spring. I received 125+ emails in my junk email box since Sunday of this week. I finally had so many unread emails that I just selected them all and deleted them. Now, I have only 7 unread emails. I know that I deleted some great coupon deals but I was just swamped and felt overwhelmed and could not catch up with scanning the emails.
Most avid couponers suffer from "overstuffed email box syndrome". They sign up for every coupon blog, printable coupon website, manufacturer's website, and any other coupon site they encounter. All of this in hopes of gathering the best possible collection of coupons. I try to help you avoid the overstuffed email box syndrome by sifting through the coupons and deals that I get in mine. By sending you the best coupons and deals that I find in my email, I hope this keeps your email box manageable.
Here's a great deal on products from Johnson and Johnson: Healthy Essentials You will have to sign up to print the coupons.
I love it when I
find coupon sites with multiple coupon sources in the same place. In
other words, I don't have to hunt and peck all over the internet for online coupon sources. I found two sites that have the coupon
sites I use most often and a few that I did not know existed. This is a
great find. I have even added them to my coupon favs on the sidebar of my blog. Here are the two links that will help you find the coupon sites you want without being a coupon detective:
My Savings.com ValPak.com
I found MySavings.com on Facebook. Then I scrolled through several posts there to find lots of freebies and great coupons to clip. I don't have a kitty cat but I will print this coupon and get a free can of cat food for a friend who has one. If you have a kitty cat, here's the link for a free can of Purina cat food from Petco: FREE Purina CAT FOOD & here's another for a FREE Gucci fragrance.
For some freebies, you may need a FaceBook acc't. If you do not have a FaceBook acc't, it just might be time for you to jump on the bandwagon. Oh, I do not have a Facebook page. My grandmother has a Facebook page. Grandma Ada would be 122 years old, if she were still on this side of Heaven.
I use Grandma's Facebook page to get coupons and freebies from my very dearest Facebook friends: Uncle Ben, Aunt Jemima, Betty Crocker, Sara Lee, Jimmy Dean, Ben and Jerry, and many, many others. I know all of their business and they know none of mine.
I have done some spring clean up on my website, too. At one time, all of the posts I had ever written were accessible by scrolling down the home page. As I became more prolific in my posts, that scrolling seemed to go on and on and on... So, now only the three most recent posts are visible and if you would like to access older posts, just click the link at the bottom of the page that says "older posts".
Finally, I widened the sidebar so that the information wasn't all squeezed together and will start using a larger font for some of my "more mature" coupon bees. Just a little cosmetic stuff to make your time spent there a little more pleasant.
We can expect two coupon inserts (Red Plum & Smart Source) this weekend, March 17, 2013. Remember, your actual coupons and their values are regional and may vary from what I have listed in the list of coupons. Check out the coupon insert preview on the Bizzy Coupon Bee Blog.
Happy Couponing!
Spring has sprung and the first official day of spring is quickly approaching. I have completed the annual spring cleaning of my coupon binder. Since I have not clipped or stuffed a single coupon in almost three months, needless to say, all of the coupons in my binder had expired. Thankfully, the church we are attending here in Florida has a coupon box for the military. The expired coupons are accepted, sorted, and shipped to our troops overseas. They and their families are able to use all manufacturers' coupons that are within 6 months after expiration.
This is also the time when the change of seasons brings a change in menus in anticipation of Easter, Passover, and a new crop of spring veggies. Most families have used up much of their fall and winter stockpile and will be shopping in earnest to fill their pantry shelves with spring and summer staples. Need eggs? Here are a couple of links that you need to check out quickly before they reach their print limit for the public. You can print twice from each link:
So, my Bizzy Coupon Bees, clean out those binders, envelopes, and coupon wallets. Buy extra Sunday papers when you see coupons for products you will need to replenish your stockpile.

Just to give you all notice, The Conway's have officially renamed their "stockpile room and freezer". They are both now part of our "storehouse". The term "stockpile" conjures up visions bordering on hoarding. But "the storehouse" will hopefully keep us mindful of the purpose of the "storehouse". A "storehouse" is a room or building where large amounts of stores or provisions are deposited. We are to share our "stores/provisions" with anyone in need. If someone knocks on our door and wants to "borrow" some sugar or mayo or eggs, we give it and then ask that they "repay" us by "paying it forward". If we know that a family has fallen on hard times, we make up a box or bag of stores or provisions and leave it on their doorstep with a note asking them to "pay it forward".
Here are a few websites that will help you restock your "storehouse" this spring and summer.
Stay Warm and Enjoy the Sunny Days
