Tip of the Day #25

7/28/12

Just thought of something some of you may not know!  You can print TWO of each printable coupon for EACH COMPUTER you have!  So if you have 2 computers you can print 4 of each and so on.....HOWEVER you can only print one of each at a time usually.....and some websites do restrict to 1, but coupons.com, redplum.com, couponnetwork.com, smartsource.com, and many other manufacturers allow 2!

Also, Bi-Lo will take competitor coupons from many stores but these coupons DO NOT DOUBLE...but you can stack them with Bi-Lo ecoupons and manufacturer coupons!!  Meaning sometimes you will be able to use three coupons on 1 item (this won't happen very often :( but it will happen!)

Tip of the Day #23

7/25/12
I know I haven't posted the best deals at Bi-Lo yet but I went there today with my momma and just had to snag a few deals...so I wanted to give a few tips and share my quick trip with you!

Paid OOP $6.20!!!!  Saved $22.62!!

Seriously...it may not look like I did that great to you, but I was really excited to get all of this for under $10!

My tip that I want to share is about my local Bi-Lo....I was at first under the impression that they only doubled $0.60 and lower coupons (like most Bi-Los) and had special promotions where they doubled $0.99 coupons....but I called them and guess what?...... they double $0.99 and lower all the time! Then yesterday I was reading over the policy again to brush up and I thought...hmmm...if they would take Target coupons as a competitor that would be great!  I was in there about a year ago before the policy change and they took one target coupon one day and wouldn't take them the next!  So, I called them again and guess what?.... they will take Dollar General, Target, Walgreens, Family Dollar, other grocery stores...just about any store I guess!  So my tip is......if your not sure ASK!!! Every community is different and the Bi-Lo here is the only one for about 20 miles either way, so I guess with other competition they can decide to do things however they want! (FYI...I have just recently become a full fledged Bi-Loiean because Harris Teeter left.....so I'm still learning about my store!)

There is a Target Q out now that you can print from their site for $0.55 off Sundrop, A&W, 7Up, or Sunkist 2L...I used it today!!!  Yay!

Kmart :( 7/25/12

So I went to Kmart today to get the Coke deal and the Fiber One bars only to find that they did not have anymore Coke Zero left!!  Actually there were only about 6 packs of Sprite and 2 regular Cokes!!!  So UPSET!!  There was only one palette of drinks in the middle aisle..which means that there were only about 45 or so packs for the whole store!!  I asked them why they only had one palette of drinks and they blamed it on the "Coke guy"....well..I am pretty sure that the store just didn't order enough because my husband has worked at Coke and I seriously doubt that they leave that to the "Coke guy's" discretion!  So anyway they said that the "Coke guy" would probably bring back more before the end of the week, so I am going to call before I go out that way again!!!....On the brighter side... LOOK what I got at $0.99 each!!!

Clearance priced at $0.99....retailed for $32.99!!
That's $64 in savings!  I know you can't really tell by the pictures but this is a full size game!  Wow!!  Best game deal yet!

Staples today!! 7/25/12

So I went with momma again today to Staples to get some office/school stuff.  My kids are not in school yet but my husband is and I have a niece and nephew too.  Here is what I got!  Check my match-ups to see pricing and deals for this week!

$7.50...but only $1.51 after EASY REBATE!!

Tip of the Day #22

7/22/12

Well I was at the grocery store and there were a ton of rebates at the front on a table....for beer...but you didn't have to buy any beer for the rebate.  The rebate comes from the company, but it was on meat and poultry products!  I think this is probably okay because I don't see how it promotes the beer!!??  Anyway...I bought $12 worth of steak and have sent in the rebate to get $10 back...so $2 for steak!!  Pretty good I think!  You may be able to go to their websites and find them!

Walmart....I don't do Wally World much but...

7/20/12

So here is what I got at Walmart....I really needed a new coupon file and the notebooks were $0.97!  Had coupons for the rest and there is also a rebate on the Spectracide.

$12.00 + tax = $13.60 OOP......saved $11.72

Bi-Lo 7/20/12..spent $44.95...Saved $53.96

Here is what I bought today at Bi-Lo!  FREE toothpaste and 4 FREE baby foods too!  You can see what all I bought here.  Did pretty good today I think.  Also have $0.25 Fuel Perks to use at the gas station...means I will save $5 on 20 gallons of gas!  See my Bi-Lo page for list of match-ups!

$44.95..saved $53.96!! Now have $0.25 in Fuel Perks!

Staples!! 7/20/12...$3.82 after Easy Rebates!!

Here is what I got from Staples today!  I actually only got 2 notebooks..my momma went with me and got one for me!!...the writing pads and dividers were $0.01 each! I submitted my Easy Rebates when I got home........Paper $6.99..Rebate $5.99...Pencils $2.49..Rebate $2.49!!  Now I just wait to get my money in the mail!

Paid $12.30 OOP...but after Easy Rebates..only $3.82

They also have these on clearance...for $0.50!!  My momma got 12 of them, but there were plenty left!  She is donating them to a missionary in WV who gives out school supplies (among other things) to children at the start of school each year.

Tip of the Day #21

7/21/12

Remember on the last post I talked about getting refreshed??  Well I had forgotten about calling and emailing companies to get coupons!!!!  Just look what I got in the mail!!!!!  All for just the price of a few minutes of time!  I just looked on some blogs and selected the diapers (2) sample..it was from Costco which we don't even have!  Got a FREE Tyson any frozen fully cooked product coupon and $0.50 off of 2 Bird's Eye coupon just from contacting the company and asking!!  Also got the $7 off any Nature Made vitamin by setting up an account with Nature Made and adding the points from the label of all my Nature Made vitamins....this coupon was 500 points!?(I think!) ....All of these coupons will make for some FREE items matched with the right sales!..I have others on the way as well!

Tip of the Day #20

7/20/12
I have been couponing for over a year now.  I have seen things change already with coupons!!  So, it is always a good idea to get refreshed on couponing from time to time...I do!  A great way to do that is to check out YouTube or bloggers that have videos.  I have recently watched SouthernSavers.com's new coupon workshops videos!  Jenny now has workshops online, so you don't have to leave the comfort of your home to learn policies, tips, and tricks about couponing!  It is always good to get reminded about things you have forgotten or learn new things!

Tip of the Day #19 - YourBucks!!

7/19/12

Here is another way to save!!!

• First go to CouponNetwork YourBucks
• Register only one time!
• Pick the offers you like from YourBucks
• Add to your Savings Wallet and print YourBucks
• Go to the store and buy the products (catalinas should print at register...be sure register has catalina machine and it is working!)
• Pair YourBucks with printable coupons from here and Save Even More!!

Tip of the Day #18

7/18/12

It's been a few days since I posted a tip so here it is!  Here's a tip I have started using....Plan your meals around the sales!  I got a great deal on hot-dogs and pork-chops last week so we are having hot-dogs for supper tonight and we had pork-chops yesterday!  Also, this is the time of year for vegetable gardens!  You can save tons of money by growing your own food and it is much better!  Having chicken, potatoes, okra, tomatoes, and mac 'n' cheese for lunch....(I make bigger lunches because of my hubby's work schedule).  If you don't have a garden there are plenty who do who sell or even give away their veggies!

Bi-Lo 7/18/12 - 7/24/12

Here are the best deals I see at Bi-Lo....I don't have a cat and don't really give my dog treats, but good deals on cat and dog!

Tip of the Day #15

7/11/12

Electronic coupons are the best!  For Bi-Lo, go to there site and click on the e-coupons button!  (You do need to have the Bi-Lo bonus card!)  Just browse through the coupons and add them all or just the ones you think you will use to your card.  You can stack manufacturers coupons with these because they are Bi-Lo store coupons!

There are also 2 other great e-coupon sites! Upromise and SavingStar.  You can find there links on my site!  These work just the way Bi-Lo e-coupons do!  Just add all of your grocery store cards to your account on these sites and then add the e-coupons that you want!  These will not come off at the register like manufacturer coupons and Bi-LO e-coupons, but in a few days you will have extra savings on your SavingStar account and you can add that to your bank account, or get an Amazon card, etc.

Tip of the Day #13

7/8/12

So tired!!!!  Tip...don't go to the store when you are hungry, tired, or in a hurry.  I promise you will buy things you don't need and spend more money than you want to, if you do!  So...don't do it!

Tip of the Day #12

7/7/12

Home Sweet Home!!  Today I would just like to tip those who are like my husband and how I used to be....We stopped at the closest gas station to wash all the salt off the car and after several minutes of waiting for the car wash to start we pulled on through.  We had paid and the person in front of us went through the wash with no problem...We couldn't figure it out and my husband was getting upset and just pulled out of the parking lot!  Needless to say, I convinced him pretty quickly to go back and get our money back!  I used to be the one who would just forget it and go on... embarrassed or just upset, but now I don't throw any money away if I can help it!
