Use Swagbucks for Free Holiday Shopping

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on December 1, 2011 None comments

With Christmas fast approaching, (is it just me or does Christmas stuff appear in stores earlier and earlier every year?) many of us are still looking to save money on gifts. I love buying gifts but I don’t like high prices so I try to get as many gifts as I can for free! One of the ways I do this is by stocking up through the year on Amazon.com gift cards through swagbucks.com. It’s free and easy. You earn points simply by searching on their site or even printing coupons! Click HERE to see some of what I’ve won before or click the banner above to join.

Saving Money On Drinking Water- Water Vending Machines

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on November 12, 2011 2 comments

I have written before on the pros and cons of Having A Water Well which for us means that we have to buy drinking water. Before we were paying about .75¢ for a gallon for drinking water at the various grocery stores we shop at. Now I have rediscovered the Water Vending Machines outside grocery stores (near us Publix has them). For .30¢ a gallon I can fill up my water jugs and save more than 50% of what I had been paying for water. For us the .45¢ I’ll save a gallon will really add up because we buy so much water.

I love that I have been able to save 50% of what we used to pay for milk and now I’m saving 50% of what I used to pay for water. Maybe my goal should be to save 50% on everything!

10-26-11 Dollar General 10¢ Sale

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on October 26, 2011 None comments

Today Dollar General started a 10¢ sale! We stopped by and found a few things. It was around noon and they were already almost sold out. Too bad, the cashier told us they had a lot more stuff earlier in the day but that people had lined up at 8am to get the deals. I was still happy with the few things that I found which will end up being gifts for other people.

Save $5 off of Any Purchase at Target.com

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on October 24, 2011 None comments

Target.com has a great deal going on (especially this close to the Holidays). If you use the code TGT75HFN it will take $5 off of any order with no minimum. You still have to pay shipping but my sister got a great deal on a makeup kit for .99 (just paying shipping) and it looks like others have found great deals too.

Thanks, hip2save.com

Edit: I just tried to use this code and it didn’t work for me. It worked for my sister yesterday so possibly they canceled it.

Why You Should Always Browse the Clearance Section

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on October 24, 2011 1 comments

I was at my local Walgreens a couple days ago when I spotted a cart containing the stuff pictured above. I don’t generally carry a lot of coupons on me when I go shopping, mostly just the ones I hope to use. I still like to browse the clearance sections at stores to see if I see anything that I know I have coupons for at home. The problem was that I would often forget exactly what was there and the prices. Now that I have a smart phone (that I bought secondhand for really cheap by the way) I have started taking pictures so that I can go home and look up any coupons I might have.

You can find coupons that are available for any product by using free coupon databases on different websites. I most often use the coupon database on SouthernSavers.com. I did find some coupons that would have made some of this stuff even cheaper, but I didn’t find any coupons that would have made anything free or dirt cheap which is always my goal. I didn’t end up going back this time but I’m glad I looked because this is always a chance to get some free stuff.

Canned Spaghetti Sauce $1

Am I the only person who didn’t know that you could buy Spaghetti Sauce in a can? I was at Walmart on Sunday and I was surprised that next to the jars of Spaghetti Sauce were cans of Spaghetti Sauce for $1! This is a great price for when I am unable to buy it cheaper with coupons.

Free Redbox Movies When You Buy Orville Redenbacher Popcorn

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on October 23, 2011 None comments

Orville Redenbacher Popcorn is offering one or two free redbox codes when you buy popcorn. There are some other deals associated with Orville Redenbacher going on right now. You might be able to come up with a good combined deal.

If nothing else, it’s a reminder that there are much cheaper ways to have a movie night than going to the theater.
