Cheap Milk

Piggly Wiggly in Westwego still has the cheapest milk. Barbe's 2% $4.05 a gallon. When you buy 4 gallons a week you have to make sure you are getting the best deal. Savings of $2.40 each week.

My Winn Dixie Trip March 15, 2012

I am really starting to like Winn Dixie more and more. Their BOGO sales got me hooked. Its almost like double coupons since you get to use 2 coupons on a BOGO sale. I always love when you get to the store and find out something is cheaper than you thought it to be. Today I picked up:

2 -Kraft Homestyle deluxe Mac and Cheese BOGO $2.50/2 = $1.25 each
2- Hormel Original Pepperoni 3.5oz BOGO $2.00/2 = $1.00 each
2- Town house Crackers BOGO $3.39/2 = $1.70 each
2- Nabisco Chips Ahoy Cookies BOGO $3.29/2 = $1.65 each
4- Light Progresso soup BOGO $2.59/2 = $1.30 each - $1/4 MFQ = $1.05 each
2- Mt. Olive spear pickles BOGO $2.89/2 = $1.45 each - 2@ .50/1 MFQ = .95 cents each
2- Rice a roni BOGO $1.79/2 = .90 cents each
2- Pasta roni BOGO $1.89/2 = .95 cents each
4- Barilla Whole grain Pasta BOGO $1.67/2 = .84 cents each - $1/2 MFQ Here = .34 cents each
     ( Coupon is on their facebook page. You will have to like then share in order to print)
2- Birds Eye Vegetables BOGO $2.89/2 = $1.45 each
2- Taco Bell Dinner Kits 3/$5= $1.67 each
2- Blue Runner Navy Beans $1.00 each

1- 4 pack Winn Dixie Vanilla Pudding cups $1.19 (wasn't on my list but little one wanted it)
1- package of pickled pork $4.89
1.8 lbs ground meat $6.94
My total before I gave her my card was $82. 58
Also had a coupon for $5.00 off of a $30 purchase but those are no longer available. I have been asking.
After all my coupons total was $42.89
Another good part about Winn Dixie is the fuel perks you get when you shop there. After this shopping trip I am up to .30 cents off per gallon and that is for up to 20 gallons.

I also took a video if you can't make out everything thats there.

Disney Junior Channel

Here you can check if you will get Disney Junior Channel in your area. Cox communications is not going to have it but I am sure if we get enough people complaining about it then maybe something will get done. Enter all your info on the page and it will send a message to them.

McDonalds coupon book

My mom purchased my girls the $1.00 coupon book for valentines day. It comes with many different coupons inside. 3- free hamburgers, 3- free apple juice or white milk 3- free apple slices or 3- free small cones.
You can only use 1 per visit and children have to be under 12 years old. We visited a McDonalds yesterday and while there I seen they were advertising one for spring. Nice to have when you are on the go and the kids want alittle something to eat. Even if you just use the hamburger and buy a $1 fry with it whole meal minus the drink so pick some up. The ones I have don't expire until May 29 so they are good for a while.

Today at CVS March 12, 2012

Found out about the Craig touch screen MP3 players were advertised for $49.99 and you get a $10 CVS cash card back. They were ringing up for $9.99 and you could still get the cash card. I wasn't lucky enough to find any. Wrong place at the wrong time. Manager at one CVS said a lady purchased 6 when they first opened the store.
I did find some good deals on other things.
I purchased the wireless air 60 game system for only $40.00 for $4.99
Zone 3D game system only reg. $60 got it for $4.99
Wireless hunting video game system reg $40.00 got it for $4.99
my favorite one which will come in handy for years to come a lightblast entertainment projector reg. $100 got it for $19.99.
Very excited for Easter.
There are other things that are half price. Slap Wrist Watches reg $4.99.
Check different things in your store. Some have reported portable DVD players for only $20.00.
Sounds like a good time to stock up for Christmas. If I had the space I know I would.

wags week of March 11, 2012

The vanilla oreos were not ringing up $2.50. I did everything in 1 transaction and didn't expect Register Rewards back but was surprised.

2 orjel toothpaste for kids $3.99 on monthly BOGO unadvertised used 2@-$1/1 printed from Orjel's website. $1.99/2 = .99 cents. My girls had a blast personallizing their toothpaste. Comes with a bunch of stickers

Contacting companies

Today I am emailing Ocean spray . Emailing companies is a good idea when you want coupons for their products that you can not get. Something very simple to do. It would be nice for me to have a coupon for cranberry juice for next weekend but don't think I will. Just let the company know that you like their product and about joining their mailing list.

Crowdtap website

I found this cool new website where you can earn points and money by doing different things. I went from cardboard member to Oak member pretty fast just by doing some questions. The best part is you can earn money and once you have 9.99 you can donate 5% to a charity of your choice. Sign up here. Its free so why not.

Hi

Sleep now a days is so hard for me. My daughter has been sick for about a month now. She has a sinus drip and it makes her throw up often. Even when she isn't throwing up I have dreams that she threw up on me so I wake up trying to figure out where she threw up at. Anyway. I found this awesome site I wanted to share with you guys. Front page freebies she post everyday. Yep unlike me and she post contact information for companies. I have been following her for about a week now and contacting all the companies she post. It makes it so easy b/c she is keeping track of who and finding it for me. I was also able to get a free veggietale dvd for my kids for free and other great deals. So check her out.
 New and some old fall shows are coming on now.
I have been wanting to try pediasure sidekicks for a while now but never cared for the price of them. This upcoming week at CVS they are on sale for $6.49 and if you buy $25 worth you get a $10 ECB. So I will buy 4 packs = $25.96  -$3x4 MFQ found in SS 7/24/11 = 13.96 - $10 ECB = 3.96/4= .99 each 4pack can't beat that. My kids don't eat right and if they like these that would be a good for them and good for my pocket book.
 I recently joined recycle bank. You earn points for watching different videos, pledging or even quizes. With these points you can earn coupons. I just requested one to be mailed out to me today for $1 off of coke product. If you haven't joined yet do so your missing out on some great offers.

Busy day today. Piggly Wiggly is running a sale. Their meat deal is usually pick 5 for $19.99. Well today its pick 6 for the same price. Also their cornish hens are 2.50 each and their chickens are .79lb. I hope there are also some good sales on their produce. We will see. They open at 7am so this will give me a chance to get the girls up and ready like its a school day. School starts Monday. I am back to couponing. Its a bit harder this time around but I am making it work and teaching my littest one we don't eat coupons.
House party is taking applications to be the chef with Chef Boyardee. Its for Saturday, September 24, 2011 you will get coupons, recipes, a chefs hat, tote bag and more. Go here to sign up.
Free Rachael Ray Nutrish just 6 premium dog food sample here.
This is an awesome site for some yummy chex mix recipes. I made a mix for the kids once with chocolate and peanut butter coated with powdered sugar. I ate more then they did.
My kids are really picky with their food so I am always on the hunt for something that they may like. I found this recipe for French Dip Sandwiches. It seems easy and they should like it minus the onions. To hide the onions I will put it in a food processor. It still has the flavor and they don't know they are eating them. I will also double the recipe b/c it says it only makes 4 sandwiches and I want leftovers.

Monday April 4, 2011

Already April. Where is this year going? It looks like we may have some April showers today. Lets see whats going on. This weekend my hubby decided to take me out for our 11 year anniversary which is not until Friday but with his work schedule next weekend we wouldn't of been able to go anywhere. We went to Bravo's. Last time we went I wasn't impressed and this time I'm still not hooked on the place. I ordered the calamari it was ok but not the best I ever had. I actually sat there and peeled the fried stuff of and just ate the calamari by itself. Then I had a salad and the soup of the day was creamy asparagus it was like eating baby food. Emma didn't like it either but then again she doesn't eat baby food. She rather eat off of our plate. Then we went to the mall to find me a ring. I wasn't finding the one I really wanted. I wanted something white gold and plan and simple but the girl said they didn't really have anything like that. I did find one that matched my bracelet that he just bought me for Valentines day so I guess it worked out. My mom ordered me a mini loaf pan and gave it to me already. I am so excited and not sure what I want to make in it yet. So many different ideas are running through my head. Today I am going to try and make it to Kid to Kid our local consignment shop. They are giving 30% store credit on items that are given. I have a big bag and a basket full of clothes and shoes. I also want to look for a bow for Katies hair for her graduation. I may do flowers instead. Haven't decided yet. I like to check out other things they have in there. Sometimes you can find a good deal. Our netflix movie this weekend was Nanny McPhee Returns. The girls loved it and want to put it on their wish list. Its a cute movie. Our next movie will be Legend of the Guardians. We are wait listed for Tangled and Jackass 3. Tangled might be in their Easter basket. Its another one on their wish list. I seen a cute little skirt that I would love to get for Sara for her to wear for her birthday. She is such a girly girly and loves to be dressed up. The mom whos little girl I seen it on said she got it from Target last year. So now I am on the hunt for that.
