10 ways to slash your grocery bill...

I just have to tell you to click on over to Mummy Deals and watch her 10 part series on slashing your grocery bills. This is really good stuff! Such simple things to do that will make a HUGE difference in your budget. Sure, there are things she addresses that you already do (pat yourself on the back!), but there is so much more here that you could easily implement!

Run on over and check her site out! It'll be worth it! (And she has a great accent to boot!)

Fantastic Deal! CVS: Always Infinity Pads for $0.99

Sorry if this makes any guy followers I have uncomfortable...if I have any followers of the male gender! This is just too good of a deal to keep quiet!

At CVS Always Infinity pads (the large package) are on an unadvertised sale for $4.99! The regular line of Always pads are marked on sale for $4.99, but these are the Infinity pads that are regularly $10.79 that are ringing up for $4.99.

Now, to make this an even better deal...use your $4/1 coupon from the 6/7 P&G insert to get them for $0.99! This is an amazing screaming deal!

Make sure you scan these at the price checker/scanner before you buy them to make sure they are still ringing up at $4.99. Since this is unadvertised, it can change at any time and perhaps vary from store to store.

Even if you don't have a use for these, you could get them to donate to a food bank or shelter.

Thanks to Money Saving Mom for the heads-up on this great money saver!

Hey, everyone!!

Okay, so I have been blogging...um...very very sporadically...on another site for a while, but decided to create a blog specifically for my couponing/freebie addiction. Thanks to my sweet niece and her blog, I may get more involved with the giveaway portion of the internet blogging universe. I was really involved with it for a while (my niece's kids were recipients of some ultra-cool winnings that my kids were too old for...), but I let it go by the wayside. So, keep a watch on future entries here for giveaway alerts!

So, what has brought me to couponing? I used to coupon a bit when my kids were in diapers...mostly just saving a few bucks here and there on baby items and other things when I remembered. Lately, however, a great friend introduced me to Coupon Sense and I have become terribly addicted!! I started major couponing in mid-October 2008 and tried to keep track of my receipts by entering them into a spreadsheet. I didn't enter all of my receipts (can't remember everything!), but with the receipts I did enter, I have saved $1,133.48 in coupons alone!!!! I have saved $2530.19 if you combine the coupons and the ad savings. WOW!! This is sooo worth it to me. And, as a bonus, it's like a GAME! I love looking for the best possible price scenerio and it is so much easier to find this with all of the helpful couponers blogging about it!! I am looking forward to linking my savings posts to their sites (my family is getting tired of guessing how much a trip to CVS saved us!). I will post links to the sites that have helped me in this, my couponing infancy. :)

So, this will be an eclectic blog...some couponing stuff, rebate finds, giveaway alerts, possibly fun & informative reviews of new products I have been able to try. Hmmmm, maybe some fun family/friend/photo stuff along the way.

I am glad you have visited my new blog. I hope to see you again soon! You'll save $$...really, you will! And you won't BELIEVE how much!
