CVS $5 off $30

Go to http://www.cvs.com/ and click on medicare in the left column. Take the medicare quiz and then print off your coupon. You can print as many as you want. Take the quiz again a few days later and it will print out an expiration date a few days later. Carry these with you so you will always be prepared when you go shopping!

I have to always hit the print button twice because nothing prints the first time.

WALGREENS FREE ELECTRASOL/FINISH NEXT WEEK

It looks like it is time to stock up on dishwashing detergent again! Next week Walgreens will have the Electrasol/Finish tabs on sale for $3.50, and it will produce a $1.00 Register Reward. There is supposed to be a $2.50 manufacturer's coupon in this Sundays paper, so it will end up being FREE.

Electrasol/Finish Dishwasher Tabs 3.49
2.50 coupon from 1/3/2010 insert
1.00 Register Reward
Final Price = FREE after coupon and RR

THIS IS WHY YOU SAVE YOUR INSERTS!

Some people may wonder why you save your inserts. If you had this insert from a few months back, you could have gone to Walgreens all month long and "bought" this Bayer Contour Moniter for FREE! I don't use these but the best part was just for going in and "buying" it, I received a $5 Register Reward. I had 3 coupons so I scored $15 in RR to start off my new year. I will roll those over into new deals in the next week! Not bad for $0 OOP!!!

PAID $22.85 - TOTAL BEFORE COUPONS WAS $58.22

I needed to get a few items today before my coupons expired. The breakfast sausage normally $3.79 was one of the deals. I paid $.89 each so I stocked up and bought 6! The Chex Mix was FREE + OVERAGE. I would have bought more but I am only printing off two computers instead of my usual 5! The Juicy Juice is for the grandkids. I already have 6 that I paid $1.00 each so I added to that stock. Yesterday at Target I bought a 64 oz. Motts Apple Juice for $.79. My daughter loves it!

We are having family over for an oyster roast tomorrow. I already bought the ham on sale so I only had to buy hash browns for the potato casserole (got my sour cream FREE weeks ago and cheddar cheese real cheap), rolls, and scallions for my Bacon Cheddar Dip. I already have the FREE cream cheese I got weeks ago and FREE crackers in my stockpile. I am making a dessert from my other cream cheese and items in my pantry and I am DONE!

WINN DIXIE DEAL!

Head over to Winn Dixie to get the following deal...

Buy 2 Tombstone Pizzas at a total of $11.58, and get the following for FREE:
*Box of Winn Dixie garlic bread sticks
*Box of Farm Rich mozzarella sticks
*2 Liter coke product
*48 oz carton of Breyer's ice cream

You have to use your customer reward card to get this deal, but you can sign up for free in the store when you're checking out. I have also heard that if you make any purchase on New Years Day you will get a $5 off $50 coupon. Everyone who knows me knows I won't be using that at Winn Dixie!!

FREE SWISS MISS HOT CHOCOLATE

These are reportedly on sale this week for $.99 at Food Lion. Use the 1.00 FLIP coupon and get hot chocolate for FREE! I bet this will taste good on these cold nights we have been having!

NEW TO THIS BLOG?? READ THIS!

For those of you new to the blog, you will notice I shop differently. When something is a good price, I stock up. That is why you see such "interesting" grocery pictures. Just remember, by shopping like this and not buying "weekly" items, you will know you will always be buying at the lowest possible price. My freezer is already STOCKED with chicken, pot roasts, hamburger, pork, etc. so I do not need to buy these items weekly. I look for the best deals and prices and add them to my stockpile. Of course, you will need to purchase your staples, like bread, milk, lunchmeat, etc.

Interested in learning how to save at least 50% on your grocery and drugstore purchases? Call today and reserve your seat at the St. Augustine Savers Coupon Workshop. You will not be disappointed! Call me at 904-540-5225 or e-mail me at judiray56@yahoo.com to sign up for the next class held at Lighthouse Interiors, 304 Anastasia Blvd.

WALGREENS MAKE-UP DEAL - PAID $2.32


I had register rewards that were going to expire in two days so I decided to have fun at Walgreens. I needed mascara, concealer and blush so I put together this deal and only spent $2.32 OOP...not bad for 4 concealers that are normally $10.49 each, 2 blush, 1 mascara, 1 lip liner and 1 newspaper!

PUBLIX TRIP - NOT $65.12 - I PAID $27.17


I had to do the Frosted Mini Wheats deal because a box of cereal only costs $.10 each! When I can get cereal for $.10 each, I take that as an opportunity to stock up. The cereal has a date on it of over one year away. This assures me that I won't have to buy any for awhile when I add it to the stockpile of cereal I already have. I stocked up on the Juicy Juice because I paid $.50 each so I bought 6. The soy sauce was $.40 each so that was added to my stockpile as well. I had to buy some items I normally don't buy, but I needed them for New Years. It was a cold day today so I bought some items to make Tortelinni Soup and cornbread for dinner!

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT...ANOTHER PRIME RIB!

I know some of you are going to laugh, but I went to Publix again and bought another Prime Rib! I misplaced my receipt so I can't give you the particulars, but I know I paid less for ALL my groceries and prime rib than the cost of the prime rib alone. I actually gave that one to my parents so they could enjoy one also!

I had to run into Publix today to get the Benefiber Raspberry Tea because the coupon expired today. I ended up buying...

4 boxes Raspberry Tea
2 pkgs. Craisens (great for oatmeal cookies!)
1 pkg. gum

TOTAL SPENT: $.74

CLASSES RESUME IN JANUARY 2010

I will resume classes in January 2010. I already have several business and church groups signed up as well as individuals. Please call me at 904-540-5225 or e-mail me at judiray56@yahoo.com to find out about the next class! Don't be fooled and pay a monthly fee for the same information I will be teaching!!

OH PUBLIX...HOW I LOVE YOU!! SPENT $27.05

Back to Publix again to buy another Prime Rib...yum!! This shopping trip consisted of:

12 cans black beans
2 pkgs cream cheese
3 pkgs. tweezers
bananas
sweet potatoes
2 pkgs Cape Cod Potato Chips
1 pkg Cole Slaw
3 pkg Tuna Fish
Zucchini
Cantelope
Prime Rib Roast - $28.06

As you can see, the prime rib was $28.06 and I spent $27.05 for the total bill. That means everything I bought other than the prime rib I got for FREE! My bill really should have been cheaper but I forgot to give them a coupon for $5 and they did not have a few items I needed that would have brought my total down lower. That is OK...I still saved and best of all added prime rib number three to my already packed freezer!

Pour 4 cups hot water into the bucket. Now add your soap mixture and stir. Add 1 gallon plus 6 cups of water and stir. Let the soap mixture sit for 24 hours and it will gel. Stir well and use 1/2 cup per load

MORE SUCCESS STORIES!!!


I just received a phone call from another "graduate" of the coupon workshop. She went to Publix and her bill was $97.56. She paid $19.48 after all her coupons!!! The bagger was pretty amazed at her savings! The BeneVia Nutrition Drinks alone were $6.99 each and she bought 3 of them! Notice she bought milk, eggs, shredded cheese, 3 loaves of bread/rolls, frozen hashbrowns, apples, rice, 2 frozen pretzels, toilet paper, salad dressing, tomato sauce, apples, Hillshire Farms Sausage, rice, tape, hot chocolate , 3 nail clippers, and produce!

Yesterday I heard from someone else who just took the class. On her first trip to the grocery store she paid $60 when her bill originally was $130!! That is a savings of over 50% her first time!


Don't miss out on these savings! More freebies this week included free eggs, free soy sauce, free nail clippers, files, or tweezers, free nutrition drinks (4 pack), free tomato sauce and free vitamins...and that is just the grocery store! I did not even list the drug store freebies!!

ANOTHER CHEAP OR FREEBIE TOMATO PRODUCT

High Value Muir Glen coupon

Coupons.com has a great $1 off any Muir Glen product, If you use this coupon with a smaller product like tomato paste, many times you are able to get them FREE. Or wait to pair the coupon with a great sale. This coupon always hits it’s print limit quick…so hurry and print yours if this is a product your family likes.

ANOTHER FREEBIE!!

BeneVia Balanced Nutrition Drink (4 pack) is also going to be FREE all month! If your family can't use this, donate it!

SLOW WEEK THIS WEEK AT PUBLIX!!

Well, Thanksgiving is over and it seems to be a slow week at Publix. That is good for me because I really don't need anything. I will just be picking up the FREE items and my basics because I already have everything in my stockpile that I paid a price I was happy to pay!!

Learning to shop differently allows me to only buy what I want when it is at its lowest price in the sales cycle. Knowing I have everything I need at home, I will probably only spend about $15 at the most this week for my groceries! We will be eating lasagna, chicken marsalla, pot roast, chicken cutlets, and homemade soup and salad on one of those cold evenings. ENJOY!!
