Not Home

I have been in Utah for the past week and will be here for the next month so I'm kind of out the loop when it comes to great sales in Texas!! If anybody hears of anything good, or sees any good coupons let me know!! I would love to hear any comments from my readers concerning ways to improve this blog or any great ideas on how to get the word out on all these fabulous sales that we see!!

Blogging!!

I am so sorry it has been so long since I posted anything!! My computar's internet has not been working and now it is finally fixed!!
Albertson's
Albertson's is having a really good sale going on for the next two weeks (August 5) There are a ton of items from the price of $0.50 to $2.00!! (which with their coupon policy will be very cheap, if not free!) A couple of my favorite buys are French's mustard for $0.50. Check your coupons for a $0.35 off coupon, with this coupon tripled it's free plus a $0.55 credit!! Powerade is also $0.50. So much cheaper than going to the gas station and buying it for over a dollar!! There are so many things to write about, I'll just let you check out the ad yourself!! Also at Albertson's it is Hawaiian Luau days, so the fruit (mango's, pineapple, and watermelon) are really cheap!!

Kroger(7/16-7/22)
There is a big 10 for 10 sale going on right now at Kroger, to many things to list, but a lot of really good savings!! Check your coupons, match them to these items and don't forget to triple or double your copons for ALOT of savings!! Also the big Buy 3 Save $3.00 sale from last week with all of the toiletries is still going on this week, read my post from July 10th to get the coupon details and don't delay because when I went last week I got the last 10 Herbal Essence shampoos and conditioners in the whole store!! (that were on sale, maybe it was because they were free!!)

Office Depot Sale

Office Depot is having their big sale on school supplies. 12 pack eraser caps, semicircular protractors, 2 pocket paper folders, and rulers are only 1 penny!! There is a limit of 5 on everything except the folders, which is a limit of 20. This weeks free item is a 6 pack of colored writing pad. (They are actually $7.49, free after a $7.49 mail in rebate)

Coupons

Did you get your Sunday coupons? This are the coupons that I wait for!! All of my favorite "luxery" items are in here and I can't wait for the big Albertsons's sale so that I can get alot of free goodies!! Tomorrow I will post the good sales of the week, and don't forget that today is the last day of the big Kroger sale, so if you haven't stocked up on free shampoo and $0.39 deoderant and toothpaste, (with last weeks coupons, of course) go check it out!!

Kroger

I just got back from Kroger. I bought most of the items I talked about in the previous post (buy 3 save $3.00 sale) spent around $40.00 and saved over $120.00!! I think I got enough toiletries to last us a whole year!! There was one thing I noticed today that I posted wrong. The disposable razors weren't $2.00 in the ad they were $2.00 off in the ad. So they cost about $2.39 after ad sale and coupon. Sorry

Kroger's Buy 3 Save $3 Sale!!

I'm telling you, if you have not bought coupons this week, GO!! I bought 5 sets this week and am so glad that I did!! I just recieved my Kroger ad and in matching the P&G coupons that were in it this week's paper (with the Buy 3 Save $3.00 Sale, (just check out the add if it doesn't make sense)) let me tell you the great savings.
1.Bounty paper towels (8 pack), $6.99-$1.00 coupon=$5.99 each (not the cheapest I have seen them, but still, not bad!!)
2.Herbal Essences Shapoo & Conditioner $1.50-$3.00 off 2 coupon=FREE

Watermelon, Coupons, and CVS

At Sprouts this week the watermelon is only $1.99 each!! Can't beat that!! Also the coupons this week we're pretty good, All P&G products, which are things like dish soap, laundry detergant, toothpaste, etc... CVS is having a pretty good sale on a lot of things this week.
1.Dawn dish soap is 2 for $2.00 with an extra buck reward on 2 so your really only paying 0.50 each, Then this week with the P&G coupons there is a coupon for $1.00 off the same soap, so with 2 soaps you can use 2 coupons and the store actually pays you 0.50 per soap!! (limit is 5)
2.Playtex Tampons are $4.99 with $3.00 extra bucks back (so $1.99) and once again check your coupons for a $1.00 off, and now they only cost you 0.99!!(limit 1)
3. Dole fruit in a cup is B1G1 free, (regularly $2.99) I had coupons that added another 0.50 off two packages, making them $1.25 each. (my kids love these, so I stocked up!!)
There are alot more sales at CVS (the add is in the Sunday paper) and almost all of them have a coupon to coorespond with it. The trick to this is go buy your tampons first, get the $3.00 bb(bucks back.) Then go buy your 5 soaps which will be free using your coupons amd bb, leaving you with 0.50 bb plus another $2.00 bb. (you don't acutally have to leave the store just do mulitple transactions). Then go back and buy your fruit and you'll get two packages for absolutely free. So you just paid $4.99 for a box of tampons, 5 bottles of Dawn dish soap, and 2 four packs of Dole fruit. Not bad!!

Free Food!!

Don't forget that if you go to Chick-Fil-A on July 11th you can get free food!! Did I forget the fact that you have to be dressed as a cow? Some suggestions were to cut out black dots and tape them to your face, hands, and body, I think that sounds good to me!!
