Free Coupons

So I've been emailing companies telling them how wonderful (or awful) their products are. To thank me they are sending me coupons, awesome coupons!!
I started with SC Johnson. They will send you coupons for free products just for complimenting them!! Just click on the "contact us" button and then it will list all their products. I just complimented each product. And if you hit the back button you won't have to enter your info again!! Just change the comments and product name!!

I also got my 2 $10 movie cash certificates in the mail from welch's. I had to buy 6 juices (which I got free with coupons) and they sent me a certificate!!

I also got some coupons from farmland. Gribbles will often have the sausage for $1.

Such a good mail day!!

Mother's Day at the Zoo

We spent Mothers Day at the Zoo. I love treating the boys to new experiences. Mother's got in free that day so the bargain hunter in me was very happy! We LOVE the Cleveland zoo so much better than the Columbus zoo. It just seems like there were soooo many more animals and that we were always keeping our eyes open for them. Here's some pics from the day!

Kraft Coupons

If you hurry and go to www.kraftfoods.com you can print some pretty awesome coupons. You can print twice from this site and also go to www.coupons.com and print two more. Most of these can pair up with Target coupons (www.afullcup.com -> target generator ) or with the Meijer mealbox coupons (www.meijer.com -> search "mealbox" -> specials )

I didn't have time to price these out but I'm thinking there should be some good deals with both coupons. *Remember you can use a manufactor coupon with a target or meijer coupon*

Mother's Day at the Zoo

We are thinking of heading up to the Cleveland zoo for Mother's Day. Moms get in free (same at columbus) on Mother's Day. It's been a loooooong time since I've been to the Cleveland zoo. Does anyone have an recommendations/comments? We went to the Columbus zoo last year and I wasn't too impressed. Alot of walking space between the animals and half of the animals weren't even there. What zoo doesn't have giraffes??

We also have a COSI membership so I was thinking we could swing by the science center too and of course eat out!!

Kmart Typo Re: Doubles

K-mart doubles typo!
Please read this..........according to SD, the ads that state double up to .75 is actually triple up to .75 and double .76 - $2. They have tons of emails to back this up. Please contact your kmart for the email or call your store.
Link - here is a good place to start reading on SD about this.

New House!

So we finally sold our house! Yippee! That was such a pain. Going back and forth with offers and then the buyer being held up on $300 dollars, come on it's only $300, that's like $.50 a month extra on your monthly payment.

Anyways, it's sold and now we are just waiting on the bank. They said it could be June before we close on it.

Our house we are buying is currently empty so I imagine we could start moving stuff in. I will probably start to move stuff when I'm on vacation in May. I'm really dreading the packing and moving. I've been trying to pack but it's hard because I'm afraid I'm gonna need something in the meantime!

Our new house is 4 bedrooms, 3 bath with a finished basement. I've already claimed the one room in the basement as my coupon stockpile room!! I'm gonna line it with shelving and it's gonna look like a mini supermarket!! You'll notice in the pictures all the woodwork, it's called wormy chesnut wood and I guess it's rare and worth $$$$.

All we need to do is repaint Drew's room because it is currently pink and yellow, not very boyish!

Here's some pics I took!

You might notice some of the items are less than what the coupon is when it is doubled. You WON'T get overage. It will only double up to the price. Example $1.99 your doubled $1 coupon should be $2 but it will only double up to $1.99. GET IT?!

I think I'm gonna order more coupons and go back for more!! I have problems!!

Happy Easter!!

Well our Easter weekend is off to a great start!!

We started the weekend off by going to the Easter Egg Hunt downtown. It was sooo cold but the boys had a ton of fun!

Then we colored eggs and didn't even make a mess! I love the bright colors of all the eggs. The boys were getting so creative with the eggs....we have some eggs that are brown due to the mixing of colors!

The boys went to sleep and then the Easter bunny came and filled their baskets and hid all their eggs they made. The "easter bunny" has a problem with buying too much! I just kept finding stuff to put in their baskets! I got such a great deal on DVD's so they each got 2, their chocolate bunny, M&M's, a disney cup, disney washcloth, chalk, some cars, kites, little people. Blake got a wii game, Drew got a rocket stuffed animal and crayons. They both got a soccer game for outside. I really didn't spend much cause I bought it all on sale!!

Here's some pics of our Easter so far..... We still have the rest of the day to celebrate!!

Little Helpful Hints for all you coupon newbies!!

Buy the Mount Vernon paper on Saturday. The coupons are usually the same as the Columbus paper but it only costs $.50

I usually buy the Ashland paper on Saturday too. It usually has decent coupons. Don't bother buying the Mansfield paper--it sucks!



On Sunday I will buy either the Columbus or Cleveland paper if the coupons are good.

To find out what's gonna be in the paper that weekend I check out http://www.taylortownpreview.com/



Oh, there isn't any coupons on Holiday weekends so no coupons this weekend (Easter) :(



I used to keep all my coupons in little 4x6 photo albums ($1 at Dollar General) so I could just flip through them but then a friend showed me the way with baseball card holders (Thanks Jenn!).
