All You magazine update

We had to be up at dark thirty and at Walmart to buy shoes for my son's band competition today. While there I went looking for All You. I found it and I am hooked. I am looking into getting a subscription to it. The coupons are worth it and there are some very interesting articles.

Just as a side note, my son's 7th grade band earned a Superior today! Go AVMS!!

Good Luck to North Henderson as they compete tomorrow.

Harris Teeter Results

We went to Harris Teeter on Wednesday. Most of the deal items were in stock, so I was able to get some really good deals.

The highlight had to be the Ken's Salad Dressing deal. They had them on sale buy 2 get 3 free, and combined with my $1 off 2 coupon, I got 5 bottles for $2.78 or $0.56 ea.

My bill started out at $82.70, I saved $53.21 in coupons and my Out Of Pocket was $29.49

Triples are ON!!!

It is true, and triples are now officially going on! Woo Hoo!

I hope to go by Friday (my goal is for today) and see how many deals I can lay my hands on.

For anyone who is interested in an updated list of the really good deals with coupons click HERE for a link to Hot Coupon World for an updated list. They even have it listed for the coupons that will be coming out this weekend. **Note to self, go look for that list**

Good luck to all!

Kmart Running Super Double Coupons........BUT......

OK, this one deserves another post today. Starting on Sunday 3/22/09 Kmart will be running what they call Super doubles. The bit BUT comes from the fact that only certain Kmarts will be doing this. You can log on to Kmart.com and look at the sales circular (they will post the next weeks circular) and look to see if it says Super Doubles at the bottom of the front page of the ad in a big red box.

For us in the WNC area, Greenville SC is the closest store that is offering Super Doubles. If you have an Ad that says Super Doubles and take it to a store that is not doing Super Doubles, it is my understanding that they will honor the ad.

During Kmart Super Doubles they will double manufacturers coupons up to $2.00. Here is a link to Hot Coupon World where you can look at a Coupon Database for Super Doubles.
***Note the database shows for a $3.00 off cpn--I don't know of any stores doing doubles up to $3.00***

Coupon Sources

Here are some of my favorite sites that have coupons that you can print out.

http://www.couponmom.com/

http://www.coupons.com/

These sites have printable coupons, and YES sometimes there are ones that will triple. Not all of them will, some are marked with "Do Not Double/Triple" but some are not.

Here is a list that I have found so far that do not say Do Not Double/Triple
these come from couponmom.com

Wacky Mac Pasta (and this stuff is good)
Land O Lakes Butter
No Yolks Noodles
Tribe Hummus
Mystic Pizza
Dominos Sugar Products

Possible changes at Walgreens

I currently have an email in to Walgreens Customer Support to try and get some answers.

I have been seeing more and more posts in the forums stating that Walgreens has changed their policy to only allow the use of 1 (one) coupon per item. This may mean an end to most of the Walgreens free or nearly free items.

Walgreens policy in the past was that they would accept their 'in advertisment/or Easy Saver(Monthly Coupon Book) - AND- a manufacturers coupon on any item.

My favorite example of this deal is their Garnier Fructis Shampoo and Conditioner.
Reg. Price 2.99
Easy Saver 2.00
_____________
Sale Price .99
Coupon 1.00
_____________
-0.01

I sure hope that it isn't true--as this will cut my shopping at Walgreens in half!

Harris Teeter-Triples-Round 2

Ok, so lets try this again. The word on HCW is that Harris Teeter will be tripling March 25-31st (Starting at 7am on the 25th through 11:59pm on the 31st--stores that arn't open 24 hrs the sale will end at closing).

I am starting to find updated deal lists, and as I find them I will post them.

Remember Harris Teeter will double coupons up to $0.99, and at selected times they will triple coupons up to $0.99.

They also have very strict rules as to the number of coupons that you can double/triple and how many multiples (same items) you can double/triple.

Here is a link to the Harris Teeter coupon policy.

Why Stockpile

Stockpiling is building up your supply of items that you and your family use regularly.

Your ultimate goal is to stock pile by using coupons and sales to get the very best deal, and ultimately get the items for free, or at least as little out of pocket expense as possible. By doing this you ensure that you have enough items on hand to last until that item goes on sale again, and/or a coupon comes out for it.

As a rule, the sales cycles tend to run every 4 to 6 weeks. So if your favorite tooth paste is on sale this week, and with your coupons you get it free then you need to make sure that you have enough to last you and your family until the sale comes around again so you can stock up for the next cycle. In some cases this may be just one of that item, or you may need to keep several on hand, only time will tell.

Stockpiling does not happen over night!

It will take on average 6 to 12 weeks to build your stockpile. The best tip I have found, “Set aside a certain amount each month, use it until it is gone for just stock items.” For me, I use my ECBs and RRs to be able to extend my ‘stocking’ $$. By using ECBs and RRs, and planning very carefully, I can continue ‘stocking’ all month long.

Each bottle of shampoo (that none of which have I paid more than $0.50--most of which has been free), each tube of tooth paste (most of which has been free) and container of dish detergent (none of which have I paid more than $0.50 ea. for) represents anywhere from $1.99 to $4.00 that I have not had to spend, which in turn has been put back into my food budget--allowing me to stock up there as well. We have also been able to start saving for a stand up freezer which will allow us even more opportunities to stock up.

Our goal, is to have enough food and staple items stocked in our home to last us 4 to 6 weeks with out having to buy anything except perishable items (Milk, Bread, fresh Fruits and Vegetables).

Building a Staples List--And How to Use It

You will find that your staples list and your stock pile will work hand in hand. As you are making your Staples list (the items that you and your family use regularly), be sure to note if there are name brand items that you prefer to buy (due to allergies, or just because you like them better) as opposed to the off brands. With your staples list in hand, you will find yourself scouring the Sunday sales fliers looking for those items and seeing who has the best deal.

Your staples list will also be the starting point of your price comparison book. A price comparison book is a notebook or tablet that has your list of Staple items on it, along with the regular prices of those items from the stores where you shop most of the time. With this price book, you will easily be able to see where your best deals are for the everyday prices, and where your best sale price is.

Here is a very rough example:

On 7/1 xyz product is on sale for 3.50 at CVS, and 4.00 at Harris Teeter you have a .60 cpn for xyz product, and it is triples weekend at Harris Teeter

Walmart 32 oz. size
Reg Price 3.79
Sale Price n/a
Coupon -0.60
OPP 3.79 (.12 per ounce)

CVS 32 oz. size
Reg Price 3.89
Sale Price 3.50
Coupon -0.60
OPP 2.90 (.09 per ounce)

Ingles 16 oz. size
Reg Price 4.09
Sale Price n/a
Coupon -0.60
OPP 3.49 (.21 per ounce)

Walgreens 32 oz. size
Reg Price 3.99
Sale Price n/a
Coupon -0.60
OPP 3.39 (.11 per ounce)

Harris Teeter 16 oz. size
Reg Price 4.29
Sale Price 4.00
Coupon - 1.80
OPP 2.20 (.13 per ounce)

So by looking at your price book, you know that with Triples this week at Harris Teeter your best price is there.

Make sure that you are listing the prices of the like items, so you will have multiple listings for products that have different sizes.

Having this book also allows you to be able to see which sale has the best price per unit.

Price divided by the number of units (lbs, oz), so while the Harris Teeter is the best out of pocket price, the best price per ounce is CVS.

Stockpiling -- What to Stockpile

Stockpile items that you know you and your family will use every day. Some of the most common items are:

Household Items
Toilet Paper
Paper Towels
Soap--hand soap (pump)
--dish soap
--Bar soap
Laundry Detergent
Diapers (you may want to buy larger sizes as well as the size you currently need)Baby Wipes
Toothpaste
Toothbrushes
Cleaning Agents
Razors
Zip Lock Bags
Shaving Cream
Deodorant
Hair Styling Products
Shampoo
Garbage Bags
Feminine Products

Food Items
Pastas
Rice
Canned Items--Soups
--Spaghetti Sauce
--Veggies
--Meats (tuna and/or chicken)
Boxed Meals
Formula/Baby Food
Rice/Soy Milk
Drink Mixes or Fruit Juices

Obviously you are not going to be stockpiling Diapers, formula and baby food if you don’t have a baby or children, so this is just a starter list of items that you may want to consider. I am sure I have missed items that really should be on this list.

Your ultimate goal is to stock pile by using coupons and sales to get the very best deal, and ultimately get the items for free, or at least as little out of pocket expence as possible.

A change from the norm

I have a very dear friend who I am helping to get hooked on couponing. She has been calling me and telling me about all the deals that she has been finding and getting more and more excited each time. The next few days I am going to be posting different things that have helped me. Sorry I am not posting the deals this week, but I feel like this will help her out.

I love you Miss C. Hope this helps!

P.S. She just sent me a text message telling me she had just saved $9.20 at Walgreens! YOU GO GIRL!!!

**Easy saver cpns come from a book that the store has at the front. Each month they put out a new book. The front half of the book has instant cpns (that you must present to the cashier to redeem), and the back half has rebates that you mail in and get credit to your gift card or a rebate check back.

Make sure to have other items to eat up the overage--these are called fillers (a candy bar, a drink,--usually something cheap)

There are a some good deals at Walgreens this week as well, I just have to be able to figure out where the store cpns are before posting them. Walgreens has a monthly book of cpns and the ones that are in the weekly sales paper. I will work on getting them up this evening.

Be sure to read the fine print

I saw this on Good Morning America last week. Make sure that you follow what the coupon says and not the photo on the coupon. I have found myself falling for this marketing trick, by looking for the deals by the photos on the coupon. Manufacturers hope that you will do this and not actually read the coupon. If a coupon does not say "Except Trial Size" then you can use it on Trial sizes. I tried this one out last week and got 3 FREE items.

Head and Shoulders Shampoo and Aqua Fresh toothpaste.

Now yes I know, they were trial sizes, but I send these with my Son when he goes on trips with the scouts--especially summer camps. Less (size) that he has to carry, and keep up with at camp. Then there is always vacation trips these can be used on.

Bad Harris Teeter News

Well, it looks like the triples weekend is a NO GO. According to the forums at HCW triples are not being offered the 13-15th. I will keep checking and keep you updated.

There is a hope that this is just for a certain area, but only time will tell.

Coupon Policies

I have been asked a couple of times what the different coupon policies are for different stores, so here is a list of the most common stores, and links to their policies. Some of the links are to the Hot Coupon World page for that store.

Triple Rumor......still looking into it

I have found a list of deals for Harris Teeter, and I will be posting it today or tomorrow. I have read post after post from different places stating that they have confirmed Triples at their location.

Look for the list coming soon!

Triples Rumor

The word is that Harris Teeter will be Tripling March 12-15. I am still looking to confrim this is true. If it is, I will be posting the best deals as soon as I find them.

Harris Teeter will triple coupons up to .99

Another rumor floating around is that Harris Teeter will be offering a Triple coupon time EACH MONTH. Again this is a rumor, but wouldn't it be nice if it were true.

Looking into the future.....

.....well so to speak

Believe it or not, you can! Each week I search out the forum of Hot Coupon World for the next weeks listing of the coupons that will be coming out on Sunday.

I know, I know, it is cheating. It takes all of the fun out of the surprise of the Sunday circular coupons, but it does give me the chance to plan ahead. I get to glimse into the future and see if I need to buy extra papers on Sunday.

Different papers do offer different coupons. From the best I can tell, the bigger markets get the better coupons. It might be more off on an item, or it might be coupons for items that the smaller market papers don't get.

The most memorable had to be Electrosol Powerballs. They were not in the Asheville or Hendersonville papers, but they were in the Charlotte. It was for $1.50 off of 1. I happened to combine this cpn with a sale at Walgreens and got a 20 ct box for $0.49.

Coupons, Coupons, Coupons

Today is the day to get your coupons! This is the week that features your Procter & Gamble coupons. They usually include Tide, Cascade, Pantene and Pampers just to name a few.

I just got back from getting my 3 papers, and I grabbed an extra Charlotte paper for my Mother-in-law (we are giving her a coupon book for a retirement present) to get her started.

I will try to get some deal post put together for the next few days.

Happy Couponing
