About a couple of dozen Omega Factor 3 krill and tuna oil, tons of Nyquil/Dayquil, 3 month supply of generic Listerine, 3 month supply of Dental Tape (much better than floss), a bunch of toothbrushes, 3 month supply of paper towels & TP, 3 month supply of tuna fish and pink salmon cans (40 in total), 2 bottles of Crisco vegetable oil, and a LOT of other stuff including 6 DiGiorno Supreme pizzas.
This coming week will be what I call "background buzz" couponing. This is just doing my traditional couponing on things I've done before but guess what...I'll still be getting at least $500 worth of stuff for under 20 bucks.
Later this morning will be using a coupon to get my van oil changed for just $14.95 which leads me to the subject of cars. You are probably paying toooo much for Anti-Freeze. Let me guess. You are shelling out around 12 bucks for a gallon of the stuff. Well, yesterday, I got a gallon of it for just $4. How? Simple. I just stopped by the flea market. They always sell it cheap there. And no, it was NOT used. I got a SEALED container. No coupons necessary.
PING!
Am I correct that the only totally FREE one would be the bottle of kids' vitamins?
Thanks.
I forgot to mention that last week I also scored 2 FREE cases of bottled drinking water including a case of Dasani.
Do you collect the coupons yourself or buy them from the folks who sell them on EBAY ?
I very rarely buy Tide because of the reasons stated in your article. However, I have purchased All and Arm&Hammer for less than half price with coupon.
Do you do the surveys on CVS ? I did one on Friday and received a $5.00 Extra Bucks coupon. I am probably going to use it to buy Diet Pepsie 12 packs this week.
ditto for me too.
just my 2 cents:
try www.iheartwags.com
and iheartcvs.com
they list the sale items in the weekly flyer 2-3 weeks in advance so that you get the appropriate coupon to match up with the upcoming sales resulting in free items.
They also have links to printable coupons and will sell you the coupon if you do not have them.
Best deal seems to be for Maalox. It is selling for $6.79 per bottle. A $5 Maalox coupon came out in yesterday's SmartSource insert in your local Sunday newspaper. In addition when you buy $30 worth of Maalox you get $10 in Register Rewards back. Soooooo....when you buy 5 bottles of Maalox for a total of $33.95 you will receive the $10 RRs. After applying the 5 coupons your total OOP (Out Of Pocket) cost plummets down to $8.95. Since the RRs comes to $10 this deal amounts to FREE plus $1.05 extra to you.
I won't be doing this deal since I have no need for Maalox although I have had more than my share of Maalox Moments.
Ebay and other sites sell coupons such as TheCouponClippers.Com. Also I have discovered a treasure trove of discarded newspapers with inserts but don't explain me to reveal that source or folks will be all over it like flies the next time I harvest those coupons.
At Walgreens, Lysol Healthy Touch System: 11.99-7.00 RR= 4.99. Manufacturer’s coupon save $3 bucks. Price= 1.99.
Sounds like a pretty good start. $7 RR buys the Go! Kids for $5 with $2 left to buy something else. $5RR from Kids Vitamins. Ping pong.
We used to use couponclippers but lately have found better deals at mycouponhunter.com or collectablecoupons.com
IIRC mycouponhunter does not have a minimum order requirement.
Rite Aid has Blink Eye drops 7.99 with 7.99 rebate. Have to wait for the rebate but it’s free.
BTW, did you know you can get FREE fake badges with coupons? They look real and nobody ever looks at them closely if you flash them. Hee! Hee!
Please add me to this ping list as well. Thanks.
Please add me to this ping list. Thanks!
Welcome aboard, PINGEE #130.
We need a ping list so people could post their daily finds (not that I’m lazy or anything).
