COUPON SATURDAY

This was my first time to shop at Kroger in many years.  There’s not one in the town where I live, but 2 neighboring towns each have a Kroger so I had planned this trip to coincide with other activities in one town. (Save some gas - don't make an extra trp.) First off, I will admit that I had not done my ‘homework’ as well as I should & I was not really as ‘coupon ready’ as I should have been.  I’ve got to get my system fine tuned.  Yet, I still saved 59% on my bill.  I’m happy with that.  ALL for things my family will use.  We’re not hoarding a garage full of coupon gained ‘stuff’. 

By the time I made it to our local Fred’s Inc. store to double up to 70 cents coupons Saturday, their stock of stuff on my list  were pretty much cleaned out.  I only found 3 items that I wanted to use my coupons on, but I saved 38% and I’m OK with that. 
Uh-Oh . . .in another post I noted that there was a 25 cent Hunt’s coupon available & Fred’s had them on sale for $1.  I had 2 coupons and I thought I was going to get 2 bottles for 50 cents each.  When I was putting them in my cart I noticed those dreaded words on the coupon – DO NOT DOUBLE. Boo-hiss!  So I put them back.  I think Wal-Mart has them regularly priced for less than $1.  So, I’ll save those 2 coupons and check prices and ads this week.
My oldest daughter was with me on this shopping trip and she did really well, too.  She saved 60% at Kroger and 50% at Fred’s.  Good for her!  Besides our shopping trip, we also had lunch with my other daughter and it was a good “Girl’s Day Out” all together. 

Buzzing around looking for more ways to save money,

MommaBee

Coupon Saturday highlights:


Janet’s shopping – Totino’s Pizza Rolls $1.99 ea. – 2 X 50 off = $0.99 ea; Yoplait yogurt $0.58 – Free Cup coupon=FREE; Tetley Tea 2.29 – 2 x 50 off = $1.29; Mt. Olive Pickles $2.19 – 2 X 50 off = $1.19;  Axe Men’s Body Spray (my son’s favorite) $4.19 – BOGO coupon = 2 for $4.19; Old Spice Body Wash $3.49 – BOGO coupon = 2 for $3.49; StarKist tuna pouch $1.25 – $1 off  = $0.25; Mission Tortillas $1.00 – 2 X 50 off = FREE; HoneyBoy salmon $1.99 – 2 X 50 off = $0.99; French’s Spicy Mustard $1.49 – 2 X 50 off = $0.49; Lawry’s Marinades 2 @ $1.69 – 2 X 50 off = $0.69 each; and my daughter spotted this good buy for us: Glad 4pk. Small Storage Bowls on close-out price $1.89 each x 2 = $3.78 - $1.50 off 2 = $2.28 total or $1.14 ea. Pkg.

My Daughter's Trip to Kroger
(Kitty cat, McLovin, is checking out the bargains.)

Total before coupons $64.71 and total after coupons $25.53 for a savings of $39.18.  That's about 60% in savings! Kroger doubles up to $.50 and triples up $.35.
Daughter's trip to Fred's:  Total before coupons $15.01 and total after coupons $7.60 for a savings of $7.41. That's almost 50% in savings.

Before Your Memorial Weekend Starts....some coupons finds to checkout

I hope that you will have an enjoyable Memorial Holiday weekend.  My grandmother used to call it Decoration Day instead of Memorial Day, I guess because the day was always spent going from cemetery to cemetery to 'decorate' various family grave sites.  Others celebrate it as a memorial to veterans.  Whatever you are celebrating or how you do it, keep it safe and enjoy some time spent with your friends &friends.   But....before you head out for the weekend, you might want to check out some of these offers below.    Happy Friday, MommaBee

Oxydol...its the SMELL that 'hooked' me!

I was so excited to find that Dollar General sells Oxydol...the laundry detergent that my mom used when I was a kid way back in the 50's & 60's.  The smell, or should I say the fragrance, takes me back in time AND it is really good detergent. 

You can get a $1 coupon for Oxydol HERE at their website by clicking on the GET COUPON tab.

Now I already printed my limit of $1 off coupons at their site and sure hope I find some more somewhere else soon.  Even without the coupon the price of $5 at Dollar General is a good value., BUT I love coupons for the stuff that I would buy even without a coupon. : )

Ads on my Blog

I want to let you all know that the advertisements which show up on my blog (or probably any one's  blog for that matter) are not chosen and placed there by me.  These are placed by AdSense, which is a service offered by Google.  While they should reflect interests similar to what I post (couponing, specific brand names, etc.) there might be something that shows up which I would not necessarily endorse.  All that is to say that I am not personally promoting any ad you might see on my blog and may not necessarily agree with what is being promoted.  

That's my DISCLAIMER for the day.  : )

For You Cat owners - $2 Tidy Cat Litter Coupon

Dollar General Store buys on 5/21/11

Sure wish Dollar General doubled coupons, but they have good prices on most things.
This is what I got yesterday for $8.02:
Hungry Jack Pancake Pouch $1 - 25 cents = 75 cents cost; Hormel Kids Complete $1.75 - 75 cents=$1 cost; Hormel Chili with Beans $1.50 - 50 cents = $1; Stride Gum 3 @ $1 ea. = $3 - $1 off/3= $2 total cost; Kraft Dressing - sign said sale price $2 each, but range up $1.67 ea = $3.34 - $1 off 2 = $2.67 total cost; French's Mustard $1 - 30 cents = $0.60 cost.

Again, all things we use and 9 things for $8.02 is still a good deal.  Well 9 free things would be even better, but I'm not that good...yet!

Anyone else have some bargain shopping trips to share?  Momma Bee Daisy is always looking for more ways to save!  : )

Fred's Inc. Store Buys on 5/21/2011

OK, now I told you that I am NOT an extreme couponer and don't claim to be an expert at this, but I'm learning and working on it.  Yesterday, I went to our local Fred's store because they double coupons up to 70 cents on Saturdays.  Here is what I got for $5.65 (including tax):

Suave Body Wash $2 - (2 X 50 cents off)= $1 cost, Lawry's Seasoning salt $1.99-(2 X 50)= $0.99 cost, Hormel Kid's Complete meal $1.75 - 75 cents off = $1 cost, Chex Mix 2 using 2 coupons: $2 ea. - (2 X 50) = $1 cost ea., Duncan Hines Snack Size Brownies $1 - (2 X 50) = FREE, Sunny D Juice $1- (2 X 25) = 50 cents cost.


All things we will use and I think 7 items for $5.65 is a good deal.

Happy Couponing from Mamma Bee Daisy

Grilling Time Coupons at Red Plum

In honor of the new grill that my son gave me for Mother's Day and assembled today
I went searching for some grilling coupons.  I found some at
http://www.redplum.com/

Bar-S Hot Dogs, Best Made Pickles, Heft Plates & Cups, OFF/Cutter Bug Repellent, etc.  These look like some good coupons.  However, when I clicked to print the coupons I chose nothing happened.  Then I went back and clicked "select all to print."  Then I got a message that I had 'reached user limit' on the ones I really wanted and it only printed the ones I didn't really want.  So, I would suggest that you try choosing just one coupon first, to test to see if it prints.  If it works, go back and try the others.  I hope you won't be disappointed like me that I didn't get the coupons I really wanted.

I also posted links to these on my Facebook page  http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100002377818542&sk=wall

Mamma Bee Daisy is sad. : (

StarKist Tuna Coupon

Yesterday, I went to https://www.starkist.com/user/register and registered to "Join" the StarKist community.  Then I got a confirmation email*** that said:

After confirmation, I clicked to get my coupon.  It is for 50 cents off an 1 StarKist Pouch Product.  I plan to see if my local 'Fred's, Inc.' store carries this product because I can DOUBLE my coupon there on Saturdays!


****Note:  In case you haven't already done so, you should set up a 'junk mail' - couponing email, separate than you personal email, for registering for all websites, coupons, sweepstakes, etc.  This way you won't fill up your personal email with SPAM and all your couping/bargain emails.  : )

My Summer Vacation

Well, my summer break from work has begun. Hooray! "Free" until August 15th.   This is the first summer since about 2003 that I have not been a student; 'non-traditional' that is.  I finally completed my Bachelor's Degree in August 2010 ~ 36 years after first beginning a college career. It was a personal goal that I worked very hard to achieve and am so glad is completed at last!

I am really looking forward to this time to rest and relax this summer of 2011.  Yet, here I go starting a blog and jumping into all that involves.  I really don't know what I am doing; just following the template and example of others.   I have always been a bargain hunter and used to be a very devoted 'couponer'.  I  still love to find a bargain, a great sale, a freebie, and such.  Plus, the need to save money and be budget conscious has not gone away and is daily becoming more of a necessity.  The couponing bug as bitten me again. I have been searching, blog reading, Facebook 'Liking', cutting, and printing away recently. 

Note:  I have only seen a short portion of one episode of 'Extreme Couponing,' so I really am not following any example or plan they might be promoting.  However, I do enjoy finding a great deal, with or without coupons.  I enjoy finding information about coupons, samples, giveaways, and sweepstakes on other blogs and on Facebook.  I also like sharing some of the 'deals' I find, too. 

My plan for this blog is to tell you about some of the 'deals' that I find.  I hope you will be able to use the information I post to find some bargains, coupons, samples, freebies, and links to useful sites.

I really do plan to do something other than blogging  this summer ~ a little bit of bargain/thrift shop/garage sale shopping, read some just for fun books (no textbooks!), plant more flowers in my yard & patio area, watch some craft & cooking shows on my newest favorite channel- Create TV on PBS, do some craft & sewing projects, travel very little since gas is so expensive, and relax, relax, relax!

Momma Bee Daisy is off to get bizzy at my Summer Vacation!
