Today I did PART of my grocery shopping...the last 2 weeks we have had to divide it up and take a little out of each pay check to get us through. Anyhoo at Target this week they have Nabisco 100 calorie snack packs on sale for $1.93....use your printable TARGET coupons for $1.00 and they are just .93 cents each!! Remember...you can print the coupons right there in the store!! I bought 5 boxes...my kids take them in their lunches for school. Also at Target they have Quaker rice cake minis (the large family size bag) for $2.44...use the $1.00 TARGET coupon that says "$1.00 off Quaker snacks" (it has granola bars on the pic but they will work for the rice cakes too...since they are Quaker snacks) and use your $1.00 MQ and they are .44 cents for a huge bag! I bought the ranch flavor..I really like them! I also bought 4 boxes of Fiber One bars...for $2.39 each. When you buy 4 Fiber One products you get a $5.00 Target gift card....which I used on my second order. At the Target that I shop at they had packages of Right Guard deodorant on clearance for $4.18 (there was 4 in each pack!) and I used a $1.00 MQ to make them just $3.18 for 4!!!
Publix has Capri Suns on sale for $2.00 a box...use your $1.00 off SUNRISE Capri Sun to get them for just $1.00 a box!! It must be the "Sunrise" kind to use the MQ.
I also made a trip to Kmart this morning for the double coupon deal. I bought Adidas Men's deodorant..on clearance for $1.89..used a $1.00 MQ so they were free!
I got Quilted Northern tp (6 mega rolls), they were on sale for $4.99, I used a $1.00 MQ...when doubled it came out to $2.99!
One note..I bought 2 Suave shampoo/conditioners that were on sale for $1.25 each and I used the $1.00 MQ...the computer only took $1.25 off (instead of $2.00) but I brought it to the cashier's attention and she manually took off $2.00 making them just .25 cents each (for the LARGE bottles!). Those coupons that say "$X off of X amount of products" confuse the system and since Kmart will only take off what you paid..(no overage) it just takes off the remaining amount of ONE item when it "doubles". The computer doesn't realize that the coupon is off of multiple items...so watch those registers!!
Anyhoo...those are some of the deals that I got today.

CVS find
Today I ran into to CVS, while I was there I checked out the 90% off bins at the back of the store. The CVS that I shop at had Glade plug ins on clearance for just .37 cents each! I got 23 Refill oils, each one came with a free plug in. I also got a extra plug in (without the oil) and my total was $1.07 after MQs!!! I used 11 "$1.00 off and twin pack or two single packs of refills" MQ and I used one "Buy a refill get a free warmer" MQ . Since the value of the Q was more than the product the cashier typed it in manually.....taking off .74 cents for every two-making them FREE. Since they were clearanced down so cheap the tax was minimal......bring my total to $1.07 for all 23 oils with warmers and the extra plug in! I cleaned out my CVS (Sorry...if it is on CLEARANCE....I consider it "fair game"! I do not do that with "Sales")...but check your local stores to see if they have the same deal!!

I am finally feeling much better and I have regained my voice! It is a good thing....next week is going to be a busy one for me! I am teaching a class on Wednesday, I am catering (kinda-it is only a salad bar) an event at a local church-I have a lot of prep work for both of those things! I have booklets to print and put together for the class. For the catering, I need to make a list and price all the items that I will need to feed 120 people! The church is paying for all the food-thankfully it is not coming out of my pay. I am excited because BOTH of those things are going to help me with raising the money that I need for the surgery.
Tonight I am meeting up with some of my oldest friends from middle/high school in a "reunion" of sorts. I am looking forward to seeing everyone and catching up! HS seems like a lifetime ago...I guess it really WAS a lifetime ago! My life is so different now..but it will be nice to step back into that "world" for a while.
Right now, Maddie and I are cuttin' coupons....getting ready for our Kmart trip tomorrow! BTW....I looked through some of my coupons and I realized that there are $1.00 off ANY Kellogg's cereal MQs. Use these at Kmart on that 4/$10 deal and the cereal is just .50 cents a box AND you'll get a $5.00 gift card...so it is a money maker! I will let you know what we bring home tomorrow and I would love to hear the deals that you find too!

Publix
Update: Publix also has "vitamin water'"on sale for $1.00-use your $1.00 off MQ (for the 10 cal vervion) and they are free!
I have been sick the last 2 days.....Maddie shared her fever and sore throat with me...ain't she sweet? :) Anyhoo, I HAVE to go buy groceries today or else we will not be eating tonight! I was looking through the new Publix ad and I spotted a few really good deals that I wanted to quickly share.
Pam cooking spray BOGO @ $3.39 -Use 2 Publix Qs for .55 cents off 1 and 2 MQs for .35 cents off 1= .59 cents for 2!
Crystal Light drink mix BOGO @ $3.99- Use the MQ that states "buy 2 get one free" and since they are BOGO you can get 4 boxes for the price of one! Since you will be charged $3.99 2xs but the cashier will take off ONE of those $3.99 when you give her your coupon. BTW-I always write the price of the product on the coupon when I have a bogo coupon....it makes the cashier's job a lot easier!
Now....if this rain will just let up a little I can get my shopping done and get back to bed.
On second thought....I may just head back to bed now-it is STORMING right now!

My trip to Publix
I went to Publix today to take advantage of some of the great deals they have this week. Here is what I bought:
6 bags of steam fresh veggies
6 bottles of Kraft salad dressing
and
6 bags of Halls cough drops
My total was just $1.09! The dressing ends up being negative .05 for 2! I am not sure if all Publix stores allow overage but the one I went to did not have any problem with it. They did have a hard time getting the computer to take the last 2 Halls coupons for some reason, the cashier called the manager and she just entered them manually. The cashier suggested that it may be because I had 18 items and 20 coupons (since I had 18 MQs and 2 Store Qs), which was perfectly fine, but the computer may have rejected it for that reason. Anyhoo...that was HUGE savings! I saved $35.54 and only spent $1.09! Yippee!

Winn Dixie find
You never hear me talk about Winn Dixie, mostly because it makes me mad that they raise the prices for their bogos, and their prices are high to begin with! Anyhoo, I got the sales flyer yesterday and I took a look-regardless. They have Mentos gum bogo-the ad says "10 pack", but there is no such thing as a "10 pack" so I asked the manager...it is actually a 15 pack of Mentos gum (located at the register) for $1.59 cents (that SAME pack is $1.28 at most stores.....btw) and it is bogo. I used ONE $1.00 MQ AND ONE .55 cents off MQ for each deal that I got! So, I paid .02 cents a pack. You can't use 2 $1.00 MQs since WD does not allow overage. I bought 16 packs and my total....INCLUDING tax was $1.22! I have more MQs, so I think I will go back and get more before the sale ends next week. Anyhoo, if you have those MQs...(and you should-if you have been cutting them all like I tell you to do :)-then go get yourself some super cheap gum! I bought Tropical flavor-yum, peppermint, wintergreen and strawberry. Gum is helpful for me to fight cravings....so who knows? You may drop a few lbs too!

CVS
UPDATE! The CVS bogo deal on Hersey's has a limit (sorry...I did not realize that!)....so if you buy 6 bags, you'll pat full price for 2. Thanks Sherrie!
I ran to CVS this afternoon, here is what I bought:
4 Dawn dish soaps-on sale for $.99 cents each, get back $1.00 ECBs wyb 2=2/.98
3 bags of jelly beans-.77 cents each
2 bags of Twizzlers-bogo @ $2.69
2 bags of Hersey's candy-bogo @ $2.99 (btw-if you buy 4 you can use the $1.50 MQ from last weekend's newspaper insert-by 6 and you can use 2 MQs. The Q is for $1.50 off 3 bags. Since you are getting one free for each one you pay for, you only have to PAY for 3 bags to use 2 MQs....got it? So 6 bags would cost you $5.97 and if you have the Store Q for $3.00 off, you'll save even more!)
10 trial size bags of Schick razors (2 razors in each bag) .99 cents Used $1.00 MQs=free
1 trial size St Ives face scrub- $1.49 Used $1.00 MQ= .49 cents (I needed it).
2 gallons of milk $3.00 each -earn $1.00 ECB for each one= $2.00 each gallon.
2 rolls of CVS paper towels- 2/$1.00
When I scanned my card at the entrance of the store I got a $4.00 off $20 purchase Q and a $3.00 off any Easter candy purchase of $10.00 or more Q. I used both those Qs along with the MQs and ECBs. My total was .84 cents and I earned back $4.00 ECBS. I usually try to EARN as many ECBS as I spend, but since I bought all the Easter candy that the "Easter Bunny" is gonna bring this year-I figured I'd go ahead and actually spend some ECBs.
I saved $46.16 today.

Revlon cosmetics: bogo....use 2 coupons for each deal you get!
Dove products: 25% off...buy 8 products get $8 RRs, buy 6 products get $6 RRs, buy 4 products get $2 RRs. That is a great deal since Dove is on sale for 25% off and you can use your coupons to make the price even cheaper!

Publix
Ok, so here are the deals that I spotted so far, if you find more, feel free to post a comment and let us all know!
IAMS cat food-$6.49 Use -$5.00 off any IAMS cat food MQ= $1.49
Lysol spray cleaner-bogo, use 2 -.50 cents off MQs (or $1.00 off, if you still have them).
General Mills cereal-bogo
Bertolli olive oil-bogo
New England coffee-bogo
Bertolli pasta sauce-bogo
Barilla pasta-bogo
Uncle Ben's rice-bogo
Planters trail mix-bogo
Kellogg's fruit snacks-bogo
Post cereal-bogo
Kraft/seven seas dressing-bogo
Orville Redenbacher pop corn-bogo
Cheeze-it-bogo
Bryers Ice cream-bogo
These are just a few of the deals this week-if you want to see the entire ad, click "publix essentials" on the AdSense side bar. I do not have my coupons with me right now, so I am not exactly sure of which ones match up. I am almost certain that there are coupons for each one of these products that I listed-so check your coupon boxes before you go shopping!
Today I cut this week's coupons-now I need to get them filed. It is a chore, but once you see how much money you can save (or MAKE...in some cases), the work is definitely worth it! My dear, sweet, loving, husband-has tried to convince me that I need to "cut back"-he fears it is too much "work" on me. He' s already told me that once I start up my business I am not going to be able to keep up. It really does not take up that much of my time-in my opinion. Once you get organized and you keep up with your weekly coupon cutting it is a smooth process. Now....if you should fall behind, even for just one week...THEN it can be overwhelming. I do feel over whelmed from time to time...but what Mom doesn't?? Running the kids here and there, keeping up with the household chores, church duties, coupons, photography, working out..... it is a lot to do. But I look at it this way-which one of those things can I cut out? NONE of them.
MY DH (dear husband) has also tried to get me to "sell my seed"! He thinks I need to sell some of my stock...I just do not feel good about that. I feel like I 'd get much more in return by sowing it-rather than selling it. Anyhoo, once again-I have just rambled on about the thoughts in my head...some things will just never change. :)

Publix
I am so sorry that I have not had the chance to post this week's Publix deals...I am gonna try super hard to do it tomorrow. Until then, you can always take a look at the ad by clicking on "publix essentials" on the right side under "google adsense"....and earn me some money while you are at it :) . I will try to get to the coupon match ups for Publix some time tomorrow....things have just been crazy busy here-each day seems to be as busy as the last and each week-just as busy as the week before.....when will it slow down? I do not know how I ever had time to "work" before!
Today....
This morning I had a Doctor's appt in Tampa-some of you know what it was for, others may not. It is more of a "personal" situation and until I make a final decision on the matter I am gonna keep it that way. Anyhoo-for all of you who pray....please pray that God would lead me in the situation and that HIS will be done. If I decide (and my insurance company decides), I may be having surgery...not major-just one night at the hospital...while I am there, I 'd REALLY like to take care of another issue-that will NOT be covered by my insurance...so I'd be needing about $7,000 to get that done. So y'all please pray for God's will and His provision in the matter.
On my way home from Tampa, I stopped at Walmart....did I ever mention that I HATE Walmart??? Well, I DO! The kids needed some school supplies so I just stopped in to pick up a few things. While I was there I checked out the "trial size" section and I found "Johnson & Johnson" body lotion (not the kind for kids, but the kind for women). The trial size was .97 cents and I had $1.00 MQs good on ANY J&J body lotion. I got 15 of those and just paid the tax on them. The cashier manually entered the coupon so there would be no overage. Well, it is about time for me to pick up the youngins...hope you are all having an awesome Thursday!! Oh! I was so thrilled to hear from Tina today, she took my class a few weeks ago and she just called to let me know how much money she is saving!! I LOVE IT! Thanks for letting me know Tina...sometimes I wonder if I am helping anyone or if I am wasting my time.

Today has been a CRAZY day...I've been so busy! Anyhoo, I have about 300.00 more to add to my monthly savings-but it will have to wait until tomorrow. I did want to share a couple of good deals with you...Publix has their "bird's eye" steamers-frozen veggies on sale for 50% off. Original prices vary from $1.89-$2.39. Use your $1.00 off 3 MQs along with $1.00 off 3 Store Q and you can save a TON! If you choose three that are $1.89 (corn, peas....)-you end up paying just .83 cents for THREE bags!I love these steamer bags...they are so easy to pop into the microwave...my kids sometimes eat them as snacks! Also, Publix has Glade scented oil candles and refills on sale for $2.50 each. Use your BOGO MQ to make them 2/$2.50 and then use the $2.00 MQ inside the box (if you can reach it) to make them 2/.50 cents. I just learned that you can do this. I always thought that if you had a bogo coupon-you could not use another MQ-but I met another Christian blogger/couponer and she assured me that it was perfectly legal...since you are getting 2 products (you would not be able to use 3 MQs-since you can never use more than 1 MQ per product). I tried it out at Walgreen's last week and they register accepted both coupons, so I am trusting that this other lady is correct.....who do you ask about "stuff" like this? She said she confirmed it with a coupon guru. Anyhoo-I'd never want to do anything that would compromise my integrity...I want to please God in everything I do...including couponing! But, I feel safe knowing that this other lady shares my principles and she is "certain" it is legit. PLUS...I am sure the Walgreen's register would have "beeped" if it as not correct...as it does half the time when it IS correct lol!
At Walgreen's...besides the awesome deals that I have already told you about, they have Trident splash gum (peppermint) on clearance for .60 cents. Use your .75 cents off 1 MQs to get them for free (+ overage, if your Walgreen's allows it-if not, they can just enter the .60 cents in manually to make them free) Irish Spring body wash is $4.42-when you buy one the register will print out a coupon for a free Irish Spring body wash.
That is about all I have "in me" right now-I promise to share more tomorrow!

FYI
When you do your Walgreen's shopping, make sure that the cashier scans your MQs BEFORE the store Qs.....otherwise the computer may not allow you to use ALL your MQs. I have found that this varies from store to store-but to be safe give them your MQs first.
God's blessings have been poured out upon us here in the McCann household....we'll you may be shocked to find out that "God" sent Spencer LOTS of new clothes! Well.....maybe not "God"exactly-He may have used someone to give them to us. There was a note in the box that said " This is a little something back because you have given unto others as you would have them give unto you." The sender said she wanted to sign the note "God"...but she was afraid too :)! How funny! I'd probably be afraid to do that too! Anyhoo, Spencer has LOVED his new clothes! The first morning after he got them, I woke up to find him wearing the robe that he got....and his shoes and socks were on! Well, as soon as he saw that I was awake he said excitedly "Mommy, I am wearing this robe 'cause I did not want you to see what I look like" then he flashed open his robe to show me how his clothes looked on him! He had a sweatshirt on, and before I could even look at it, he was stripping that off to show me the shirt he had underneath it! Poor kids must have been sweating to death waitin' for me to wake up! He is so proud of his new clothes ! Thank you God and the people that you use to bless our family!

Walgreen's
I already put up this week's Walgreen's deals but I wanted to share what I bought and how much I saved there!I shopped at 3 different Walgreen's today-since I had to drive my niece to Weeki Wachi, to where she left her car. Instead of wiping our any one store, I just stopped a those along the way. All together I got 33 bottles of "Fructis" shampoo/conditioner/ styling products, 11 tubes of Colgate, 3 packs of Revlon emery boards, 4 boxes of "sambucol" medication, 2 candy bars, 2 bottles of Coffee mate creamer, 4 Glade Sense and sprays, & 3 Glade lasting impressions. My TOTAL (for all 3 stores) was $16.26! Some of my receipts had a subtotal into the negative...one was -.65, the other was -.08! Too bad we gotta pay the tax! I SAVED...$291.26 (JUST today!), between the 3 stores! Anyhoo, there are lots more deals this week, but I just had to time to get the free stuff for now! I have over $60 in RRs to spend, I just gotta find the time to really look around or more deals! BTW-if you have one in diapers still, the Huggies deal at Walgreen's rocks! Use those printable coupons and get a ton of diapers for super cheap! The printable Huggies coupons re set...so even if you already printed your limit of 2, you can still print 2 more of each one (while they last!)
