Walmart Deals 12/01

2008-12-01T11:41:00.002-06:00

Walmart has some good deals this week.

Betty Crocker garlic mashed and Au Gratin potatoes are just .79 cents per box. Target has these at .79 cents a few weeks ago but now they are at $2.00 so this is a good deal. What makes it even better is you can print a 40 cents off coupon and get them for 39 cents!! There were also 40 cents off coupons in the 11/16 smart source insert. Stock up this is a good price.

Health Tip: For people who have to cut back on sodium you don't have to used those seasoning packets--it's still a good price for the ready potatoes that you can season yourself.

Green Giant Steamers are $1 and there was $1 off coupon in the 11/16 SmartSource. This is a great price. I've seen them at Jewel (Albertsons) for $2.50 and they are at Target for $1.60. Get them at Walmart for FREE!!! These are healthy too---low in carbs and sodium and you cook them in the micro right in the bag. Go buy some coupons on ebay and stock up. You could be eatting these forever if you bid right.

Muir Glen Tomatoes are under 30 cents with a printable coupon. I love stocking up on canned tomatoes.

What to do with all those canned tomatoes? Here is an idea on how to use them. When I'm making pasta and using jarred pasta sauce, I'll head up a sauce pan, add some olive oil and then diced garlic. I let that cook a bit (don't let garlic brown), then I add one can of diced tomaotes. Let that cook a bit, then add the jarred pasta sauce. It adds substance to the pasta and it's REALLY good.

Free Rayovac Batteries

2008-12-01T11:37:00.003-06:00

Print out this $1 off Rayovac coupon. Oh heck, just print a bunch. And go to Target where you can get these for FREE!!

It's a nice idea to give these batteries along with any gifts you're giving that require batteries. Why neck check all the flashlights and make sure they work, or replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Don't forget though, batteries get recycled, not thrown away. I believe Radio Shack takes old batteries (because sure to call and make sure your local one does.)

Free Search Engine 'Submission (normally paid service)

2008-11-29T21:03:00.001-06:00

How to Send Free Text Messages

2008-11-28T11:08:00.004-06:00

I just read a cool article that shows you how to send an email/text for free. I can type about 90 wpm on a keyboard, but with texting--forget it.

By sending it via the SMS gateway you bypass the cell phone companies text carrier and you and/or the recipient are not charged.

Program participants will also receive free telephone support to help them quit. The nicotine patch giveaway program will run through June 30, 2009.

Massachusetts veterans smoke at a higher rate than the general adult population: 24 percent as opposed to 18 percent, when adjusted for age (based on figures from 2005-07). This new quit-smoking offer for veterans is a joint effort of DVS and DPH.

Boxes of Turtles (candy) 99 cents each!!

2008-11-18T13:50:00.000-06:00

Boxes of DeMets Turtles are $2.49 at Walgreens. There was a coupon for $1.50 off in last Sunday's paper making these just 99 cents!! If you would like sugar free turtles, they are in a bag so you'll have to check that area, but they are the same price.

This holiday season, money is tight, but who wants it to look that way??? And no one wants to go to a Christmas or holiday party without something to contribute. So I'm going to drizzle chocolate and carmel over them and heat slightly to make them seem homemade. Hope it works.

Consumers Cutting Back

2008-11-18T13:49:00.000-06:00

Some 58% of Americans feel that the economy has reached a low point and nearly half (47%) think it will stay this way for a while, prompting spending cutbacks on nearly everything - from charitable contributions to dining out to beauty and grooming products, according to the November/December 2008 Insight Report from MarketTools, Inc.

71% of all respondents are reducing dining out costs today vs. 66% in the last survey in April 2008.
34% of households are cutting back on purchases of beauty or grooming products compared with 27%previously.
30% of households are reducing spending on kids’ toys and games, despite the holiday, compared with 25% of households in the last report.
19% of respondents are cutting back on purchasing non-prescription medications compared to 16% in the last survey.

“Although more than half of Americans are feeling impacted by the economy this holiday season, consumers will still be making purchases,” said Beth Rounds, SVP of research solutions at MarketTools. “This economic crisis will outlast the holiday season, so companies need to listen to their customers to understand how consumers are responding to budgetary pressures.”

Keep on the Sunny Side....

2008-11-18T13:48:00.001-06:00

Despite continuing gloomy economic conditions in the US, consumer confidence declined only slightly in November - slipping 2.3 points to 34.7, compared with 37.0 in October - on future expectations that local economies will improve, according to the most recent results of the RBC CASH (Consumer Attitudes and Spending by Household) Index.

Study Shows More Moms Stressed

2008-11-18T13:46:00.000-06:00

According to a study from the non-profit Marketing to Moms Coalition, the majority of moms (75%) say they have been using leftovers more this year in an effort to save money, especially Caucasian moms (78%) and Hispanic moms (74%). In contrast, one in three African-American moms (31%) either doesn’t use left overs or uses them less now than in the past.

Many moms also are trying to find ways to do more one-stop shopping to save time and money, the survey found. Nearly two thirds (63%) of moms try to one-stop shop, especially those with children age two and under (69%). Other top ways moms try to save time and cut costs include making meals at home (63%), shopping and/or paying bills online (55%), enlisting children to help in household chores (46%), and shopping in bulk (45%).

Good Deals at Target

2008-11-18T13:22:00.001-06:00

Just got back from Target and wanted to share some good deals.

In last Sunday's paper there was a good coupon for DelMonte. Buy (4) cans of veggies and get $1 off. Target has the DelMonte green beans on sale for 50 cents which is a great deal making them just 25 cents per can with the coupon. All others were priced at $1.10 a can. Not being a fan of green beans, I used one of those scanners at the end of the aisle to see if any others scanned at 50 cents. The sweet corn did!!!

16 cans came out to be just $4!!!! Woohoo.

Reynolds Wrap foil. The sale ad says the 75 ft rolls are on sale for $2.50. There was a $1 off coupon in last Sunday's paper making it $1.50 which is a good deal. (Don't forget, foil is recyclable).

Green Giant Steamers. These are on sale for $1.69 and there was a $1 off coupon in last Sunday's paper making these just 69 cents. There are some good varieties too. Or you can print on here...
http://www.freestuffandsamples.com/coupons/viewtopic.php?t=1166

Target brand crew socks for women (6 pairs) is $4.99. Not on sale, but scanning at $3.99. GREAT stocking stuffer.

If you need baby wipes check the clearance aisle in the baby section. HUGE container of 600+ Huggies wipes for just $10! (Clearance varies by store but I believe these expire in a few months and so all stores have to get rid of stock). But come on, you could go through the wipes before they even expire--am I wrong?

Betty Crocker Au Gratin and Garlic Potatoes. On sale for 79 cents. There is a 40 cents off coupon you can print at Betty Crocker. Or in last Sunday's paper there was a 35 cents off coupon. You can get these for just 39 cents each!!!!

Betty Crocker cookie mix packets. On sale for $1.50 and you can print 75 cents off coupons online. Cheap way to make those "homemade" cookies for holiday parties or work.

$5 off $20 Walgreens Coupon and how to use it to get free items!!!

2008-11-15T14:00:00.001-06:00

Walgreen's is offering a $5 off a $20 purchase. You can print out multiple copies here:

http://www.walgreens.com/default.jsp

What better way to use this coupon than on rebate items that are going to be free anyway. That way you're basically getting $5 in cash not just $5 off!!

Here is how I used this coupon today:

(1) L'oreal Pro Age Calicum tinted moisturizer $14.99
As fillers (because the price must be $20 before tax) I got (3) Sunday papers (for the coupons, I can care less about the news).

After the coupon my total was $16.17.
Minus L'oreal moisturizer rebate ($14.99)

Minus 10% add on you get when you
opt for the Walgreen's gift card ($1.49)
instead of a check rebate.

In the end I will make 31 cents off this (plus I got the moisturizer and 3 Sunday papers with tons of coupons!!!!)

If you want to use this $5/$20 coupon multiple times check out this nice list of rebates. You can use this to buy rebate items and earn a little cash.
