Walgreens Cheap Baking Soda and Baking Powder

Today is the last day to take advantage of Walgreens Cheap Baking Soda and Baking Powder. The last page on their ad has a coupon that makes them .50¢ each which is good for baking ingredients. I am also told that there was a Clabber Girl coupon for the baking powder but I have been unable to find it.

11-5-11 Free At CVS This Week

This week CVS’s Coupon Machine was giving out coupons for free Illy coffee drinks. *TIP* We had to scan our cards twice for the machine to print the coupon. I have noticed that if you scan your card twice it will often give you different coupons. The Dawn dish soap was on sale for .99¢ and I used .50¢ off coupons from the 10/30 RP to make them .50¢ each. I had $1 CVS bucks which I used to make my total for these three items .02¢. Getting stuff for pennies is my favorite way to shop.

Winn-Dixie Coffee Mate Deal

Winn-Dixie is running a deal for an automatic $1 off when you buy three 16oz coffee mate items. Certain 16oz coffee mate creamers cost 3 for $5. Right in front of the coffee mate section was an in store coupon dispenser with coupons for .55¢ off of one. There are also .50¢ off of one coupons in the 10/30 Red Plum. So for $2.35 total or .78¢ each I was able to get three coffee creamers. I did this deal twice because we drink so much coffee in our house. These don’t expire until Feb. but we will have used all 6 bottles long before then. Unfortunately I believe that the automatic $1 off expires today but you would still be able to get three for $3.50 or under with the .50¢ off coupons.

*Note* anything bought at Winn-Dixie also contributes to Fuelperks Rewards to get cheaper gas.

Making a Profit off of Publix Clearance

Remember my post about always looking out for stuff on clearance? Well I noticed these trial sized items on sale at Publix for change, went home and realized that I had coupons for them. Not only were some of these items free but I was paid overage to take them out of the store. That’s the way I like to shop!

Shopping With My Sister

Yesterday I got to go shopping with my sister which is always lots of fun. My sister is a shopaholic like no other. She loves to shop but she somehow always finds the most amazing deals so that she never spends much money.

We found these cute Almost Famous shorts at Sears for $2.99.

She also needed a birthday gift for her friend and we went to Bath & Body Works that was having Fall Clearance. She got almost $40 worth of stuff for $10.

At CVS, she needed some air fresheners so we the deal where if you spend $12 on select glade products you get $4 ECBs. After the coupons she used and the ECBs she received this ended up costing around $4. Not bad for something she needed to buy anyway.

At Publix, we got a few things she needed and it only cost about $2.

Shopping is always more fun when I get to go with my sister. We compare deals and we encourage each other to save. I definitely recommend having a shopping/saving buddy!

Why You Should Always Browse the Clearance Section

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.
