Okay, fellow couponers.....our coupon group went to the Dollar Tree at Cedar Hills on Blanding, it's one of the larger Dollar Tree Stores. We were pretty successful there, found many items that qualified for coupons by sizes etc. Here's what I bought, now the other girls I was with also found Colgate Toothpastes in a large enough size to use their coupons, and several others as well. I bought 2 Bic White Outs, had a coupon for $1/2, making those .50 each. Softsoap refills, we had coupons for .50/1, making those .50 each and Post Shredded Wheat cereal was of course $1 each, we had coupons for $1/1 making those free! I had 6 boxes of shredded wheat, 6 Softsoap refills and 2 Bic white outs and spent $4.56. The manager of that store did tell us they are really sticking to the size restrictions or any other restrictions. They will only let you use 2 computer generated mfg coupons, but they allowed us to use more than 2 of the other coupons. So it will probably vary by store, but this particular store had lots of things that we have gotten coupons for in the past.
On to CVS next....I did 3 deals total. 1st Deal, I bought 2 of the Gillette 10ct razors, were $10.79 each, with a bogo coupon from RP 8/5 and then a $3 off coupon from P & G 8/26 and then used my $4/$20 ECB coupon. I had to buy one filler item for $1. I paid $4.79 and got back a $5 ECB...so actually made $$ on that deal. Deal 2 was 2 Venus Disposables were $7.99 each, had a bogo coupon RP 8/5 and a $3/1 mfg coupon from P & G 8/26 and used my ECB from the previous deal for a total of $1.12 and got a small filler item. Deal 3 thank goodness for Dianna finding this one, Gevalia Coffee bags were on sale for $5.99 each, I had printed (2) Gevalia bogo coupons (off the site I believe),bought 4 of those, then I bought 2 of the Dawn Hand Care dish soaps were on sale for .99, had coupons for .75/1 P&G 8/26 making those .24 each! Used my $5 coupon from the previous deal. All in all, I spent $13.37 at CVS for $82.18 in products! 84% savings, I haven't done that well in a while. And I don't have any extra ECB's to worry about, as I turned them back to the next deal.
For the entire shopping day, I spent $17.93 and got 6 boxes of Post Shredded Wheat, 2 Bic White outs, 6 Softsoap Refills, 20 Gillette mens razors, 8 Gillette Simply Venus Razors, 4 bags of Gevalia Coffee, 2 Dawn dish soaps....I love a day like this!
Okay, get out there and check out your neighborhood Dollar Tree to see what deals you can scare up and CVS seems to be doing better lately with their deals. I have not shopped Walgreens yet this week, and I may not, I will let you know if I do.
God Bless and get out there a Be a Savvy Shopper! Rhonda Goff

Hi all, I did a little recon today at Dollar Tree on Normandy. They told me their taking coupons will begin this Sunday. I walked the store to see what types of things we might would get coupons for.....I wrote down around 50 name brand things. You might want to check out a store close to you and see what you can see, it's my understanding they don't all carry the same things and things can change because of the way they buy. Anyway, I saw boxes of Shredded Wheat that I had a $1 off coupon that would have been FREE. I'm sure there were more items as well.
Okay, while I was out, I stopped at Publix to pick up a few sale items I noticed in the paper. The Colgate toothpaste...Opti White...was 2/$6, we had a Publix coupon for $1 off 1 and we had a MFG coup for .75 off one SS 8/12, making those only $1.25 each. Bought 9 softsoap liquid hand soaps were 10/$10, only had 9 coups for .35/1 making those .65 each. Lysol wipes were bogo at $4.89 for 2, had coupons for $1/1 making those $1.44 each, Ken's Marinades were bogo at $2.99 for 2, we had coups for $1/1 from SS 8/12 making those .49 each. Bought several aluminum throw away pans, they were bogo. I haul a lot of food around so I use a lot of those. I bought Milkbones had a coupon for $1.50/2 and bought 2 Nestles chocolate chips, had a Target coupon for $1 off 2 and a Publix coupon for .75 off 2, making those $2.27 each. I had enough to use one of my WD $5/$30 coupons. I spent $34.99 for $99.41 in groceries. Not a bad day.....have a great rest of the week and get some deals.

Heads up fellow Savvy Money Savers.....Dollar Tree is going to begin taking our coupons! If you've never been to a Dollar Tree....everything is indeed ONE DOLLAR! They have tons of off brand things, but they also have tons of brand name items that we will have coupons for! Think what we can save on cleaning products, skin care items, some foods....we are very excited about this new couponning opportunity. Our Couponista Group, led by Miss Vicki, will be doing some Reconnaissance in our area to see how this will play out for us. I would recommend your doing the same in your area of town. I will keep you all posted on what we find out and you please do the same. I am including the website for you to see the rules for yourselves....wouldn't hurt to have them with you when you go.

Monday 8/20/12
Had a great shopping day today....did Wags, Winn Dixie and CVS.
At Walgreens I did a total of 5 separate deals. I did a deal, then if there was anyone in line behind me, I explained what I was doing to the cashier (I didn't want her to think I was trying to shoplift), I let the other folks in front of me, then I would do my next deal, on and on for 5 total deals. I got almost every deal I went for and the cashier was very patient. She even commended me for the way I did my coupon shopping. I feel that it is very important not to keep other folks waiting, it seems to make the cashiers nervous which can lead to mistakes being made, not always in our favor. Soo.....Deal 1Bought the Glade Expressions starter kit, was $2.99, had a coupon for $3/1 which I printed off coupons.com. Also received a $1 RR for buying it. So really, it cost me nothing, I made $1 for buying it. Bought 2 Oral B Floss Picks were 2/$6. had (2) coupons for .75/1 from P & G 7/29 and got a $4 RR, so basically those cost me .50. Bought 2 of the Chex snack mix for $3, couldn't find a coupon and got a $1 RR, so those were $1 each. At the end I went into the next deal with $6 in RR. Deal 2...Bought 1 Gillette Mach 3 Razor for $8.99, had a coupon for $3/1 from RP 8/19, got back a $4 RR, so it cost me $1.99. I bought 2 Crest 3 D toothpastes were 2/$6, had (2) .75/1 coupons from P&G 7/29, bought 2 Nice Baking Sodas for $1.18 (store coupon) needed 2 Dentine gums to make my coupon/item count come out right and used my $6 RR and went into deal #3 with $8 in RR. Deal 3 bought another Glade Expressions for $2.99, coupon for $3 off, got back a $1 RR, bought 2 more of the Oral B floss picks for $6, (2) .75/1 coupons and $4 RR, 2 Nice Black Peppers (store coupon) for and 1 Kraft Velveeta Cheese for $2.99. I used my $8 RR from deal 2 and went into deal 4 with $5 RR. Deal 4 I did another Gillette Mach 3 Razor and used my coupon and RR from deal 3 and went into deal 5 with $4 in RR. Deal 5, bought Poise Pads on sale for $10.99 (they are normally around $14), used my $4 RR on those. I ended up with no extra RR to worry about and got $88.38 in goods for $26.39, not too shabby. 69% savings! I am stockpiling again for my Christmas gift bags.
Winn Dixie, I won't go into the details as this is the last day of the sale, except for the special 3 day sale they are running. They had Chuck Roasts again bogo, bought 2 more and boneless skinless chicken breast bogo, bought 2. Nestle Skinny cow candies were 2 boxes for $7, we had coupons for $1/2, I did not find any of the single bars. I got WD sliced Ham in the Deli and for buying that I got 1 pound of free WD Provolone cheese and gas perks galore. I bought 6 Planters Pnut butters for $2.49, had coups for $1/1 and got .5 in fuel perks for each one I bought. I spent $130.06 and saved $83.08 all told. I ended up with 70 cents per gallon off my next fill up..... .70 in fuel Perks which should get me in the under $3 per gallon range.....whoopie!
CVS...I did well there too. Revlon Nail polishes were $4.99 each, I had coupons for $1/1 from SS 7/22 or SS 8/5 and got back $3 ECB (Extra Care bucks) for each one, the limit was 6. So....I spent $23.94, got back $18 in ECB! Did a 2nd deal of 2 Right Guard Deodorants at $2.99 each had coups for $1/1 received $1 ECB for each of the two. Bought CVS brand brush picks for $2.49, bought 2 Loreal Makeup removers at $6.99 each, used my $18 ECB and paid $2.45 over that. All in all, I got $60.39 in goods for $26.39. 56% savings and I am getting ready for Christmas! Oh, and I am going forward with a $2 ECB, I hate when I have those left over, I usually forget about them! Guess I can tape it on my car windshield so I won't forget??? Probably not one of my better ideas, huh?
That's probably about going to do it for me this week. Have a great one and I will say the drug stores are really starting to have some deals worth going out for the past couple weeks. God Bless....Rhonda Goff

Results from shopping trip yesterday.
First off, at Publix I did get the Chefboyardee canned pastas for .50 each, however, the meat ones were not not included in the sale. They were 4/$3 and with the Publix coupon for $1/4, they came out to .50 each. I bought 12 for the pantry.
I did pretty well at CVS. I did the Venus Embrace razor deal. Bought one for $9.99, had a $4/1 coupon and received $4 Extra Bucks, making it $1.99. (I did not receive a CVS coupon when I entered the store and ran my card through the machine). The other deal was if you bought $30 in selected products, you receive $10 ECB. I bought 4 Whisk laundry soaps at $4.99 each, had coupons for $2/1 from RP 8/12 making those $2.99 and I bought 4 Speed Stick Deodorants for $2.99 each, had coupons for $1/1 making those $1.99 each. Spent $25.91 for $62.11 in merchandise and got back $14 in extra care bucks. Deal #2, I needed Aleve which was on sale for $8.99 each, bought 2 had coupons $1/1, making those $7.99 each, bought 4 Good and Natural bars.....free coupons from last week and needed some coffee filters for $1.99, since I had too many coupons vs. items, I admit it, I bought 2 musketeers bars....I know, my bad. They were all out of the Barilla microwave pasta meals which would have been $1 each with my coupons. I spent $5.41 for $29.43 in merchandise. (I used my $14 ECB from the previous deal).
Target was pretty much a bust for the Dove deal! I went to 2 Target stores, the one on Argyle and the one on Wells Road...both stores were out of the 12 oz. Dove shampoo and conditioners. If they WOULD have had them, the price would have been $3.09, not $2.99 as we were told. Against my better judgement, I bought 2 Dove Mens body washes and 2 Women's Dove body washes, each was $4.49, I had coupons for $1/1 from Redplum 7/29. I spent $13.96 and got back a $5 gift card. I turned around and bought a bottle of Loreal liquid make up for $12.81, had a $2/1 coupon for that and used my $5 gift card from the previous deal and spent $5.81 for my makeup. That was pretty good.
Anyway, not a day to brag about, but I did manage to save some money and get some things to help out with the pantry and start my Christmas bag stockpile. So there you have it.
Have a great rest of the week. God Bless.....Rhonda Goff

Tuesday 8/14/12
Hey, all, I haven't been shopping yet this week, so I'm gonna tell you what I will be looking to do on Wednesday.
Publix has Chef Boyardee canned meals 4 for $3, and there is a Publix coupon from SS I think, for $1 off 4, making those .50 each. Most of these will go to the food pantry at church.
CVS has Venus Embrace Razors for $9.99, use your $4/1 coupon in this week's Redplum and then receive a $4 extra bucks reward, making them $1.99 and if you hit the EB machine on the way in, there is supposed to be a CVS coupon for $2 off 1, making them +.01. Buy $30 of listed items and receive a $10 ECB, my plan is to buy 4 Whisk Laundry soaps at 4.99 each and 4 Speed Stick Deodorants at $2.99 each. Use the $2/1 coupon for Whisk from RP 8/12 and the Speed Sticks $1/1, total of $31.92, minus the coupons will be $19.92, then with your $10 ECB, will be $9.92 or $1.24 per item.....Then I will turn around and use my $14.00 ECBs on deal 2, which will be (2) Aleves for $8.99 each, coupon for $1/1, and Barilla microwave meals are 2/$4, coupons are $1/1 making those just $1 each (for food pantry), and 4 Good & natural bars are FREE, we got coupons this passed Sunday.
TARGET has a deal on Dove Buy 4 Dove Shampoo/conditioners at $2.99 each, Red Plum from 7/29 has a ton of Dove Coupons, I plan to use (2) $3/2 making those $5.96, and I'll get a $5 Target Gift Card back, making those 4 for .96! I will turn around and buy another one of those, maybe two with the previous gift cards. Another deal to do is Buy 2 shampoo/Conditioners for $5.98, minus the $3/2 coupon, making that $2.98, buy 1 Caress body Wash for $3.29, using the .75/1, making that $2.54, and buy 1 Dove Mens Care body wash for $4.49, using the $1/1 making that $3.49 Total $13.76, minus coupons makes it $9.01, use a $5 gift card from previous deals, makes it $4.01 and get another $5 gift card back!
I will let you all know tomorrow afternoon whether these deals work for me. I hope so.

Monday 8/6/12
I did pretty well at the Kohl's Tax Free 20% off all sale on Sunday after church. Got my husband and myself several pairs of underwear, socks and t-shirts for him and found 2 pairs of really cute really discounted shoes.....saved 27.5% overall, and came out with $30 in Kohls Cash. Not a bad day at all.
Today, I did the Target/Roseart crayone/marker/pencil deal. Here's how it went down. In the very back of the Target on Argyle, the Roseart crayons were .20 per box, I bought 2 of those, the Roseart colored markers were .49 per box, bought 2 of those and the Roseart colored pencils were .49 per box, bought 2 of those. Total for all was $2.36. The coupons were $1/3, used 2 of those, so I ended up at .36 for the 6 items! FYI....Chick Fil A is also collecting school supplies for kids, so I went by there and dropped those in the bin they have up front.
Stopped into Walgreens and they had several different types of Bic Razors, bygo at 50% off....so....I bought 2 of the 10 pack Bic Twin Selects for $3.99 and $1.99 and used (2) of the $3/1 coupons which came out to making .02, then I bought 2 packages (4 razors per package) of the Bic comfort shavers, same deal bogo 50% off, they were $4.49 and $2.24, used (2) more of the $3/1 coupons, making those .73 for the 2 packages. You may also want to do the deal at Walmart, they are supposed to be $2.96 for the Bic sensitive comfort 3 silk touch razors, which would make you .04 per package. I have not checked that one out for myself yet, but plan to later this week. (These Bic coupons were in the Smartsource 8/5)
Read something online that I wanted to check out. Evidently, Home Depot is going to stop carrying the Husky brand garbage bags. I heard that they were $2.43 per box of 50 for the Fall variety that are normally $29.95. At our Home Depot in Argyle, they are indeed marking the bags down, they are in the front of the store in big stacks and have been marked down somewhat, but the gentleman we spoke with said we should keep watch, if they don't sell them out, they will be marked down even more. So keep your eyes peeled at your own Home Depot store for a really great savings. As you all know, it's tough to get a good deal on our paper type products. As it was, we bought 212- 13 gallon Husky kitchen bags (not draw string, but long tie ends on them) for $10. That's like .05 per bag, I thought that was pretty darn good. I am watching for the larger black bags to go on sale for a much lower price. Let us know if you see them.
That's it for me today....keep us posted if you find any more great sales out there.
God Bless and happy shopping......Rhonda Goff

Stopped into Walgreens and they had several different types of Bic Razors, bygo at 50% off....so....I bought 2 of the 10 pack Bic Twin Selects for $3.99 and $1.99 and used (2) of the $3/1 coupons which came out to making .02, then I bought 2 packages (4 razors per package) of the Bic comfort shavers, same deal bogo 50% off, they were $4.49 and $2.24, used (2) more of the $3/1 coupons, making those .73 for the 2 packages. You may also want to do the deal at Walmart, they are supposed to be $2.96 for the Bic sensitive comfort 3 silk touch razors, which would make you .04 per package. I have not checked that one out for myself yet, but plan to later this week. (These Bic coupons were in the Smartsource 8/5)
Read something online that I wanted to check out. Evidently, Home Depot is going to stop carrying the Husky brand garbage bags. I heard that they were $2.43 per box of 50 for the Fall variety that are normally $29.95. At our Home Depot in Argyle, they are indeed marking the bags down, they are in the front of the store in big stacks and have been marked down somewhat, but the gentleman we spoke with said we should keep watch, if they don't sell them out, they will be marked down even more. So keep your eyes peeled at your own Home Depot store for a really great savings. As you all know, it's tough to get a good deal on our paper type products. As it was, we bought 212- 13 gallon Husky kitchen bags (not draw string, but long tie ends on them) for $10. That's like .05 per bag, I thought that was pretty darn good. I am watching for the larger black bags to go on sale for a much lower price. Let us know if you see them.
That's it for me today....keep us posted if you find any more great sales out there.
God Bless and happy shopping......Rhonda Goff

Friday 8/3/12
Reminder....the Tax Free weekend started today and goes through Sunday....that's probably why it was a ZOO today at Walmart. Also, Kohls sent out a card for us to use also that is called a Yes Pass, if you spend $100 (which is easy to do) you will receive and extra 20% off or you can take an extra 15% off everything....added to your tax free, you could save yourselves quit a tidy little sum! Also, they are offering $10 Kohls cash for every $50 you spend! Gee, if you spent $100, it would actually cost you $80, then you get $20 Kohls cash back for spending the $100, sounds like $100 for $60 to me, tax free!
Couple of things at Walmart that you might want to take advantage of .....The Glade Expressions starter kits are $2.98, we have a coupon for $2/1 these were in the Smart Source from 7/15...making those .98, the refills for them are $1.98 and you can use the same coupons on those making 2 cents on each one you buy....AND there is a rebate form from Glade where they rebate your first one! I bought 4 starter kits ($11.92) and 5 refills ($9.90) which came to $21.82, I used 9 $2/1 mfg coupons, which brought it down to $3.82, and they are rebating me $2.98, so .84 for all 9 Glade items! Can't beat that with a stick! The other thing was Dulcolax 8 count boxes were $1.98, we had coupons for $1/1SS 5/13, making those .98 each. Bic Cristal pens, 10 packs were .97, we had $1/2 coupons from SS 7/29, so those were .47 per package. Starkist light tuna pouches are $1.12, we had coupons for .55/1 from our SS 7/15 making those .57 each!
Thanks to Miss Vicki for pointing these deals out! She always has been the Couponista Queen for sure!
Two things I went to Publix for.....Barilla Pastas were bogo at $1.49 for 2, we had coupons from SS 6/24 for .55 off 2, making those .47 each. Wishbone dressings were bogo at $2.89 for 2, we had coupons for .40 off 2, making those $1.24 each....that wasn't a great deal was it? But I needed some, so only bought 4.
Anyway, best deals I found today were at Walmart.....sorry Publix, but they beat you today. Okay, get out there and get those deals!
