Another link!

Here's another link to Cottonelle. I got to print six from one computer and four from another. I don't know why it printed more and why 6/4 but it means I have plenty of coupons for next month's sale at WAGs. Let me know how many prints you get!

Great Walgreens Deals Start Next Week

I'm so conflicted!! GREAT deals start this Sunday at Walgreens. I know that to get them I"ve got to shop early. Sunday is also Adam's birthday.
ALSO, there are several personal care items that will be free or cheap. The victims of the Smithville tornado (or others you might know of) would greatly appreciate anything you can do for them. This would be a great time to put those couponing skills to use in order to be Jesus' hands and feet. There are SO many drop off locations in and around Tupelo (Tupelo Middle and Premier Countertops are two I know of) so help in any way you can!

Thanks Christie for the list of deals!!!

Kroger

New sale starts tomorrow. I'm very disappointed that it is not going to be a new Mega Event. I guess we'll have to wait two weeks and see if it is coming. Here are my favorites for tomorrow:

There were several coupons for $0.35 off Goldfish Grahams online a few weeks ago. These will come in handy now because they will be on sale for $1.00 or $0.30 after double coupon. :)  Check dealseekingmom's coupon database to see if they are still out there. Even at a dollar you are are saving 50% of the Walmart cost.

Green bell peppers are going to be $0.68 each. They've been $3-4 lately so I'm excited to see this price. I plan on grabbing ten or so, chopping them up and throwing them in the freezer. I might even try my hand and planting the seeds to grow my own plants.

Kraft slices (16 I think) will be on sale for $1.79 and I printed several $0.75 off coupons from coupons.com recently which will make them $1.04 a pack.

I plan on getting 8 Goldfish grahams, 4 Multi-grain Goldfish, ten bell peppers and six packs of cheese for less than $20. Check out the Kroger list on Southernsavers and let me know what you're excited about. Maybe I overlooked something cool. :)

$10 Pillow Pets Today (Tuesday) Only!

I was in Kroger at crosstown today and saw Pillow Pets marked down to $10. I do not know if they will still be marked down tomorrow when new deals start so if you are in town today you'll want to grab these up and hold on to them for Christmas or birthdays. The ones I saw were bunnies, puppies, unicorns, penguins, pandas, Valentines puppy, lady bug and bumble bee. I have to go tomorrow so I'll let you know what I see. BTW, there are still tons of Reece's eggs in the 50% section. Might look for some Qs.

That means that this is the last week for the Scott Naturals 6 pack paper towels deal. Grab them this week!! There was a coupon in the paper for $1 off to pair with the $1 store coupon in the April book to take $2 off all together. So they are running $5 -give them your $1 MFC and then the $1 Store Coupon =$3 for six rolls or $0.50 each.  I think there is also a coupon on coupons.com in case you did not get the one from the Sunday paper. :)

KEEP IN MIND:  DO NOT CLEAR THE SHELVES!!!  Save some for other couponers. You don't want to be like some of those people on Extreme Couponing who take everything because they can. 

Cheap Coke Zero at Walgreens

Ok, here's something that looks too good to be true so it must be! I plan to check it out tomorrow and let you know if it worked. Several sites have this deal posted:

Get 8 pack Mini Coca-Cola Products 7.5 oz. ea. FREE WYB 3 – 12 packs of Coca-Cola Products 3/$13
-$2/1 Coca-Cola 8-pk, 75 oz. mini cans (2054) x5/21 Walgreens Catalina Coupon
-$2/1 Coca-Cola Zero 12 pk (2057) x5/21 Walgreens Catalina Coupon
= $5 FOR (3) COKE ZERO & (1) MINI CANS IF YOU CAN USE COUPON ON FREE ITEM

 I asked one of the local managers if I could give a cashier a store coupon number if I did not bring the coupon with me. He said yes. I tried it today on Pampers, knowing I had the coupon in my purse if I needed it, and the cashier looked at me like I was trying to cheat the system but typed it in anyway. 


So, tomorrow I will go to WAGS and pick up three cases of coke zero and one eight pack of the mini cans, maybe in Sprite. I'll give my cashier these store coupon numbers and see what happens. If not, I've  gotten an ok deal. If it works then I'll be super excited!! I'll be doing the cheap coke zero dance in the parking lot.  Then I'll come home and let you know how it went. 

This could also be a GREAT thing for the following week. The week of April 17 WAGS will have Coke products on sale 5 cases for $13. This is already a good deal. If the Coke Zero store coupon works I'll get 5 cases for $3 plus the tax on the original cost...so around $4 after taxes. Again, Coke Zero dance in the parking lot will be done. I hope it doesn't cause it to rain Coke Zero....

I hope the shelves don't get cleared out....

Honest Couponing

This article comes from a site I enjoy. With all the hype about the Extreme Couponing show I thought it would be appropriate.  Thanks http://kingdomfirstmom.com/
The following is a guest post from Dana of Mrs. Moneysaver. Dana’s mission in life is to love God and love people.  Helping others do more with less is one way Dana hopes to serve and show love to those in her community and nationwide.

Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own? No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.” –Luke 16:10-13

Jesus was directing his message to two contrasting social groups. First, he was directly speaking to his disciples, a group of ragtag villagers and fishermen who had very little. And secondly, he was addressing the Pharisees, a group of the educated, wealthy and elite. Jesus had a similar message for both, a message that will benefit us these two thousand years later should we choose to listen.
His message- the love of money is slavery.
As Jesus illustrates the portrait of the dishonest man and his money, notice that he compares the dishonesty to slavery. Like a cruel taskmaster, the man’s love of money becomes master and forces him into a hatred of God.
What can we learn from this parable?
Money, possessions, wealth—these things are not wrong in and of themselves. This bears repeating. Having (lots and lots of) money isn’t wrong! It’s the love of money that is wrong.
We know we love money when it takes control over our lives. When we disobey God’s will in order to get it (or save it), we’re giving money the control in our lives. And we’re allowing money to become our master. And here’s the thing:
If money is your master, there is no room for Christ as Master.

What about those of us who are journeying toward a more frugal lifestyle? Those of us who are striving to be good stewards of the monetary wealth God has given? What could Christ be saying to us in Luke 16?
Are we so consumed with saving a buck (or even a quarter) that we would sacrifice our honesty to do so? If so, then we are being slaves to money. We are turning away from what God desires for us to do as we seek after money. If you are trying to live frugally, being a slave to money may look much different than many in the world. They may be chasing after money by working long hours and buying expensive cars. But you may be rationalizing your own way of monetary slavery.

How could you possibly become a slave to money while trying to be frugal?

If money becomes an idol in our lives in any way, it’s sin. The idol worship of it may differ- from saving money to spending money- but it’s sin nonetheless. God commands us to have no other Gods besides Him. (Exodus 20:3) If my focus is on my frugal lifestyle rather than the Lord, I have set up an idol in my life. I need to remember to consistently ask for God’s grace in not becoming consumed by money saving.
If we have set up the idol of frugal living in our lives, we may be led to do dishonest (sinful) things in the pursuit of our idol. Have you ever read the fine print on coupons? Or on a drugstore customer rewards card application? The legal stuff. The rules. The “contract” details, if you will, that dictate the agreement we enter into with the company by way of our signature or decision to take part in a program. This fine print calls us to an honest use of the coupon or rewards card.
For example, a drugstore rewards program might limit you to one card per person or household. It would be dishonest to acquire multiple cards for your use. Or perhaps an internet coupon for a free product says limit one print per customer in the fine print. To print many copies and use them to get loads of free stuff would be dishonest as well.

Our government’s laws require us to obey the wishes of the companies in their legal fine print, not find a way around them. And God asks that we obey the laws in our country. (See Romans 13:1-5.)

Don’t know or understand the fine print? Ask the company! I’m sure they would appreciate your honesty as well.
Of course, our God is a loving and forgiving God. And He cares most about our hearts. If you unknowingly disobey a store’s rules, He knows your motivation and heart, so find peace in that truth.

Perhaps we should all take some time today to ask God to show us what we are a slave to. Am I a slave to money? Or to our Lord? I must seek His heart in learning the best ways I can live a frugal life and honor God with my finances.

Coupon Fraud

If you have been couponing for a while or if I taught you then you should know what constitutes coupon fraud.
1. Using a coupon for something other than what is specified. Many coupons state "good on any" so you can use it on any...even a trial/travel size. When it tells you something specific that is all you can use it on. If your coupon states "Good on Classico Pasta Sauce 40 ounce" then you are not supposed to use it on the 15 ounce. This goes for cleaners, toilet paper and make up. Whatever it is, if it gives you a size restriction do not use it on a smaller size.
2. Do not copy a coupon. EVER. You two prints for internet printed coupons for a reason. Do not copy these!
3. Using the computer to alter a coupon. We've come so far with technology in the last 15 years and can do such great things with computers. Creating or altering a coupon is fraud. It takes money away from the store and the manufacture. Same goes for using one. It's hard to know when it comes to using internet printed coupons if we don't find them at the manufacture's webstie, coupons.com or another site we are used to. If you are uncertain about its validity use a coupon database like Deal Seeking Mom, Hot Coupon World or BeCentsAble.

Adam and I watched TLC's Extreme Couponing Wednesday night and one lady really bothered me. For starters she was clearing the shelves which I always teach not to do. I understand if there's only four left and you need those four...but larger quantities when they are limited is not thinking about others. If Kroger has ten shelves full of Powerade and you want to grab 30-ok. You could even buy 15 now and come back in a few days or at the end of the two week sale and grab the other 15. Kroger is generally good about staying stocked. (Except when people come through and clear the shelves)

Turns out that this lady was also using coupons on items other than what was specified. Here's the link:

Be a responsible and honest couponer. If coupon fraud increases many companies are likely to stop putting coupons out there. Stores are less likely to take them. You don't want to ruin it for everyone. :)

Great Coupon Class

I had such a great time at Kacie's house last night teaching how to coupon effectively. Kacie is such a sweet & beautiful lady and she's already got such a great grasp on couponing. Way to go girl! I've prayed for each of those ladies this morning that God will bless them, put people in their path to encourage them and that He helps them take this information to bless their home and others. Thank you all for coming last night and THANK YOU Kacie for opening your home to each of us. Ladies, don't forget to ask questions as needed and to sign up to host your own party (no charge for you) so you can hear the information again and share it with others.
