71% at Safeway

I wake up ridiculously early this time of year. It's not that I don't like sleep. I really, really do, it's just that 7 am rolls around and my brain starts going and well, Saturday or not, I'm up! Since everyone else in the world prefers to sleep in on the weekends, I figured I might as well take advantage and go do some couponing. Plus, Safeway actually had some good deals on stuff I want/use this week. I did two transactions and spent a total of $25.87, with a total savings of $36.03 or 71%. Here's what I got: Transaction 1 4 Packages Ore-Ida easy fries (On sale $1.50,…

Morning Mission to Walgreens

Our TP supplies were getting low, so imagine my joy when I heard about this deal going on a Walgreens! Buy two 12-packs of Cottonelle Ultra and get $3 back. I stopped by this morning to do it because it's Friday, and I wake up ridiculously early, and really, why not. We also needed body wash, so I figured I could use the $3 to go towards that. I did two transactions and here's the breakdown: Transaction #1: 2 12-Packs of Cottonelle. (Regular price $5 each- $1 Walgreens coupon - (1) $.75 off MFG coupon -- I had two, but using both would have required a filler item= Paid $7.25,…

Couponing in Chicago!

Traveling, working, all these things make it hard to score deals. I was bummed I wasn't able to take advantage of Safeway's $10 off $75 coupon this month (also b.s., it used to be $10 off $50) and thought I was gonna miss out on a good Dove deal at Albertsons as well due to my trip to Chicago. But then, Nick Lipton needed to return some DVDs and we needed beer so we headed on over to the local Jewel-Osco. I grabbed the circular and lo and behold, it was the same sales as Albertsons! I never leave home without my coupons, so I was set. Then, as an…

Intern at Work

Got myself a new Intern. He's already been thrown onto a bus with a bunch of dirt bags, visited every snowboard related brand in Portland, and met just about anyone who's anyone in Northwest snowboarding. While some have said all he's learning is "how to be cool in Portland," I'll have you know, I also put him to work. Remember my last intern? Yeah, he works at Leo Burnett now.

Couponing Takes Time Dammit

I've been slacking/failing at couponing lately. You see, I've been actually busy. Not the kind of busy where you're not doing shit but you just tell people you're busy because you don't feel like doing anything, but legitimately working from dark to dark, barely sleeping, busy. It's good, I like it. However, the one thing that has suffered is my couponing. I've still been getting the inserts (I actually subscribed to the Saver edition of the Oregonian) and I got the new intern to help me clip and organize last weekend, but I've barely been shopping at all. As a result, my coupon folder is bursting at the seams, and…
