Coupon Notes...

Hey, Y'all!

(All links are highlighted in yellow)
Just a quick note or two to update you on coupon happenings. First, Harris Teeter is having a Colgate-Palmolive event starting today and ending on March 22nd.  Buy 3 items featured on the flyer and get $3.  Here's the link:  Colgate-Palmolive event   I don't know if this is running at any other stores???

Below are a couple of links that will cause every couponer to shudder
But, all is not gloom and doom.  Here are a couple more links that will bring a smile to every coupon clipper:
​Here's a website that is bustin' out with coupon links.
  • Coupon Links
    ​ - This website can be very difficult to navigate.  There is so much information crammed onto the first page
    that you will find it hard to find what you want.  But, fix yourself a cup of hot tea and commence to studying the web page
    and you just might find some great information.
Great buys this week and next: 
  • Corned Beef:  look for prices under $2 per pound and buy as much as your freezer will hold.  Google "corned beef recipes" for ideas on how to cook up your bounty.  Here's a link to get you started... "Corned Beef Recipes"  What time is dinner?
  • Cabbage:  look for prices under 25¢ per pound (17¢ per pound at ShopRite)  Cabbage will keep in the refrigerator for at least 4 to 6 weeks.  The large the head of cabbage, the longer it will keep.  DO NOT REMOVE ANY LEAVES AT STORE.  Store in the refrigerator and do not remove any leaves until ready to cook.  Do not put in a plastic bag.
Finally, I just renegotiated my one year contract with the Washington Post.  I get four copies of the papers each weekend.  The quote for the new subscription for the four Sunday only papers was in excess of $600!!!  Now, you know I was not paying that.  I told the little lady that I could not afford that and would have to cancel my subscription.  You know what came next..."One minute, please...I will transfer you to my termination supervisor."  I gave the same verbage to the supervisor and said I would have to cancel because I only wanted the papers for the coupons and could get a better deal with the Baltimore Sun.  The quote she gave me was for $463.  Nope! Still, not havin' it!  I told her so very politely to cancel my subscription, please.  Bottom line, I got the renewed contract for four papers for $218 a year (99¢ per Sunday paper). I will have to do that same song and dance next March.

Coupon Previews & Deals galore!

Four Coupon Inserts Expected this Weekend!!!

Hey, Everyone!

I am so excited about this coming weekend's coupon bonanza.  Four coupon inserts are expected this weekend!  So, after you shovel out the rest of the snow, sit down and gather your coupons for your next shopping trip. 

CVS Deal for FREE Colgate Toothpaste

  • Buy: Two (2) Colgate Max 6 oz or 2 in 1 toothpaste 4.6 oz for $3.49
  • Use: Two (2) $1 off one Colgate toothpaste, 3 oz or larger from Smart Source 1.17.16 
  • Pay Out of Pocket (OOP): $4.98 and receive $5 (ECB) ExtraCareBucks
  • Get both items for FREE!!!​
Finally, check your local supermarkets for great deals on meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, and dairy products.  Snowbound trucks were not able to deliver milk to the stores and the stores will have more milk than they can sell for the next few days.  This goes for eggs and fresh meat, too.  I doubt this will be advertised but as soon as you can, visit your local supermarkets and head for the produce, meat, and dairy sections.

If you have any questions or want to hang out with me when I go shopping, send me an email.  I am in the process of building our stockpile for our newly expanded family of 14 (3 adults and 11 children).  So, I am combining big box store shopping and couponing.  My goal is to build a self sustaining stockpile for 14 that will make it possible for us to shop only once every 4 to 6 weeks or more except for fresh produce (fruits and veggies).  If we stay out of the supermarket, we will automatically save money without clipping a single coupon. 

Still snowbound?  Spend a few minutes looking through the coupon databases for coupons to match the deals in this week's supermarket and pharmacy ads.

Happy Couponing!

House Cleaning for the New Year!

Each year I ask those on my coupon email list to please let me know if they would like me to remove their name from my email list.  It is a new year and I am again asking that same question. 

Please let me know if you no longer wish to receive anymore coupon information.  I promise that my feelings will not be hurt...much :o)  You can always request to be added later if you find you miss hearing from me.  I do not want to be part of unwanted email clutter in your inbox. 

Also, I did send out the power point presentation from the last coupon class and about 15 emails bounced back because the file was too large.  I will send out a link to the presentation tomorrow...unless you ask me not to do so. :o)

In the meantime, Happy Couponing!

​I sent out the Coupon Class powerpoint presentation last week.  However, about 15 email addresses rejected the email because of its enormous size.  So, on to plan B.  I will upload it to my google drive and then share the link with you all.  I will do that tomorrow or Thursday.  No need to send me an email if you did or did not get the presentation.  I will just send the link to everyone.

Good night to all!​

Coupon Tips...

http://reviewsbypink.com/companies-that-will-send-you-coupons/

Super Doubles at Harris Teeter thru Tuesday, January 12th.  All coupons with a face value up to $2 will double up to $4 off!!​

All printable coupon sites reloaded their coupons for 2016 on January 1st.  So, go on over to your favorite printable sites and get those coupons ASAP!  Most printable coupons will not expire for 30 days.  Hang on to them and wait for the perfect deals to net you the best savings.  Here are a few of my favorite printable coupon sites: 
Note: I have never couponed at Target.  I am not at all familiar with their coupon policy nor whether or not they welcome the couponing community with open arms.  Would love to hear some feedback.

Hampton and I will be teaching a couponing class in Ocean City this weekend (Saturday afternoon) for our motorcycle association.  Always a fun time there.  If you are registered for the Gold Wing Road Riders Association Convention in Ocean City, MD this weekend, please stop by our room and attend the class or just say, "Hey!!".

Happy Couponing!

1.3.16 to 1.9.16 - CVS Deals

I've been browsing the latest CVS sales and coupon matchups on MyLitter.com
Lots and lots of great deals even without starting with CVS ExtraCare Bucks in your pocket!  You must use your ExtraCare Card (or phone number) & manufacturers' coupons where noted in the list to get the deals shown. 

Did you miss the 5-Ream case of copy paper at Staples last week?  
$1 Staples® 8.5" x 11" multipurpose paper, 5-ream case, after easy rebate and with coupon.  In Store Only
Well, lucky for you...the sale was extended (expires 1.09.16).  So, even if you got it last week, you can do it again this week.  Go to Staples.com/coupons to print the coupon...limit 4 cases.  DO NOT FORGET TO SEND IN THE REBATE!

Remember, the limit is 4 cases (5 reams per case).  Out of pocket per ream is $29.99 + tax...Ouch!  So, don't forget to send in your rebate or complete it online.  I got one case and will definitely get another one this week, as well.  Deals like this help make my coupon printing costs negligible.

Two NEW coupon sites that feature lots of CVS deals:
 CouponAholic.net Click the link for a great CVS deal I found on this site.
 Wild for CVS - Tons and tons of awesome CVS deals for this week.

Happy Couponing at CVS!!!
