Total Win at Target

Posted by Brooke on August 22, 2011 in Scores!, Shopping trips

Yesterday was pretty much the perfect summer day. We floated, we ate pizza, and oh yeah, when we stopped at Target to buy whiffle ball stuff, I got all this with some change I had in the bottom of my purse. I’d had the $1 off any coupons to pick up 10 Cascade items for […]

Couponing Confessions (plus 91% Savings)

Posted by Brooke on August 18, 2011 in Shopping trips

I have a confession to make. Yesterday was 8/16, and also the expiration date on the Safeway $5/15 Frozen Food coupon. This is the coupon that made my 100% savings shopping trip possible, and I actually had enough ice cream coupons to do it again. So after resisting for a solid 6 days, I said […]

Clean Dishes at a Discount!

Posted by Brooke on August 16, 2011 in Scores!, Shopping trips

Cruised by Safeway on my way home from work and took advantage of this deal on Gain. I could have saved another $1 if I wasn’t short one coupon, but still managed to get a good deal on some dish soap and laundry detergent. For $4.47 out of pocket and a total savings of 68% […]

Nature Valley Granola Thins: My Official Review

Posted by Brooke on August 11, 2011 in Product Reviews, Random Thoughts

Nature Valley (ahem, General Mills) has been desperately trying to get people addicted to these granola thins. I know because I had tons of coupons for them that have been accumulating almost every week. They were finally cheap enough at Safeway that I decided I would pick some up. They are regularly $3.99 and on […]

Cheap, Healthy and on the way Home!

Posted by Brooke on August 9, 2011 in Shopping trips

Originally this blog was called “Couponing is making me fat” because I definitely am more likely to buy things such as chips and cookies when they are free/cheap and then eat them all! But it is possible to get good deals on so-called healthy food too, which is what I did on my way home […]

Walgreens 8/7/2011

Posted by Brooke on August 8, 2011 in Shopping trips

One of the many things I’ve learned is that if you want the “money maker” items, you can’t slack. And this week Keri lotion (regularly $8.29) at Walgreens was one of those coveted items so I got my ass over there Sunday morning. Allow me to explain: The lotion was on sale for $5.99, and […]

Ten Dollars at Target

Posted by Brooke on August 7, 2011 in Random Thoughts, Shopping trips

There is some concern at that I am just “hoarding” at this point, but you say hoarding, I say stocking up. The truth is, I am buying things for the game of couponing, but I make it a point to ask myself with every purchase: is this something I will actually use. One thing I’ve […]

Lunch Deal — $9.99 For 2 at Quiznos

Posted by Brooke on August 2, 2011 in Good Eats

I feel like I should preface this with the fact that Jared and I are terrible at choosing a lunch destination. So bad, in fact, there was another blog about that. So when a Quiznos coupon arrived in my inbox, the same day I managed to spill coffee on my wireless keyboard, it was sort […]

Defeated at Walgreens

Posted by Brooke on July 31, 2011 in Lessons, Shopping trips

Sometimes the coupons win, and on my trip to Walgreens, I’d say that happened. Planning is key with this stuff, and I tend to just sort of wing it. I check the blogs, see what the good deals are, check for what coupons I have and then head out. I don’t estimate what I’m going […]
