August 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I was looking around at the baby food at my local Walmart store and realized that the Gerber baby food was $.98 for both the large AND small sizes…of course I went ahead and bought the large sizes. So the next time you are shopping pay attention to the sizes and their price. Sometimes it’s cheaper to purchase the larger size!

August 20, 2011 By 4 Comments
So I’ve been couponing now for 3 years and it feels great to save my family about $116 a week! What doesn’t feel great is being “profiled” when I walk into certain stores armed with my coupon binder and ready to score some deals. I feel that cashier staring at my every move, questions my coupons as s/he glances down just trying to find something to call the manager over for and says the total in disbelief. There are {Read More}

July 31, 2011 By Leave a Comment
For many couponers when a paper manufacture coupon states “DO NOT DOUBLE” we think it won’t double. But, majority of the time, they will indeed double.

If the coupon starts with a 5, the coupon will still double no matter what the coupon says (as long as your store doubles!). If a coupon begins with a {Read More}
