Organic / Natural Deals- Publix Greenwise Organic Coffee 10oz for $4.99

Publix Greenwise Organic Coffee 10oz was on sale at my Publix store this week for $4.99. Since we drink a lot of coffee in this house I’m excited to try an Organic version.

Facts About Publix GreenWise Market Organic Coffee (From Publix)

  • No synthetic chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers used
  • Contains no genetically modified organisms (GMOs)
  • Grown and harvested using sustainable farming methods

Does anyone have any other ideas for where to buy cheap organic coffee?

Organic / Natural Deals- $1.50 Green Works Natural Cleaning Products at Publix

Publix currently has some of their Green Works cleaning products on sale 2/$5 or $2.50 each. You can pair this with a $1 off Clorox Green Works Naturally Derived Cleaner Printable Coupon to get them for $1.50 each.

As I have said, I am not going to go through my house and throw away all of our cleaning products and stockpile that I may no longer want to use. What I’m doing is slowly replacing products when I find good deals and look for greener options. I invite you to join me in this and follow the Natural and Organic Deals I post. I haven’t had the opportunity to try Green Works before so I was glad I got to do this deal today.

Great Thrift Shop Finds $1 DVD Player B1G1 TVs and More

I went Thrift Shopping with my Mom recently and we had some really great finds. Here are some of them below.

This DVD player with it’s remote was only $1!

These two TVs were marked $15 each but they were on sale for B1G1 Free. They even lowered the price to $10 for 2. I didn’t need 2 TVs but they wouldn’t sell me one for $5. So two TVs it was. I’m going to give away the 2nd one or yard sale it.

I got this box of books for $1. Some are for us to read and some are to sell/trade.

We also filled this bag for $2 with all sorts of random stuff including clothes and kitchen items.

I grew up thrift shopping with my mother and it has saved me thousands of dollars over the years. I love knowing that I am being eco-friendly by preventing useful things from ending up in landfills. I also love knowing that the money goes to the great causes such as Habitat for Humanity and Salvation Army that run the shops.

Organic / Natural Deals – Walgreens Orange Closeout Tags on Natural/Organic Products including Yes To Products

I now know that Walgreens has a small Organic/Naturals section and I accidentally stumbled upon an orange tag sale on some of these products such as Yes To Products. If you happened to print $2/1 Yes to Carrots, Cucumbers or Blueberries body product (now out of prints) and haven’t used it yet it would make for some nice Yes To Products for around .19¢.

I bought Yes To Tomatoes Shampoo and Conditioner for $2.19 each and Out of Africa Organic soap for $1.59. I also stocked up on some Nice! Baking Soda at Walgreens for .59¢ with an in ad coupon. They do this sale regularly and Baking Soda is awesome for many natural cleaning and household uses.

Organic / Natural Deals – Marshalls Eco-Friendly Kitchen Stuff

At Marshalls we found reusable cupcake / muffin baking cups which would be a one time buy instead of repeatedly buying paper ones. Then we found glass versions of Plastic Gladware containers which are healthier than plastic storage and will last longer as well. I don’t remember the exact prices but they were inexpensive.

Organic / Natural Deals – Products found at Ross, T.J. Maxx, and Marshalls for Close Out Prices

When my sister and I went clothes shopping the other day at some Ross, T.J. Maxx, and Marshalls close out stores and we realized that their body products section had some really nice Organic / Natural products for great prices. Some brands included EO, The Body Shop, Williams Sonoma, and ECOs.

2-1-12 CVS Shopping Trip

Tom’s of Maine is priced at $3.99 this week with a $3 ECBs back. I am trying to buy more Organic/Natural Products so I wanted to take advantage of this deal. The limit is also 2 per card so I was able to get the toothpaste and deodorant. I bought them in two separate transactions so that I could use the $3 ECBs from the 1st transaction towards the 2nd transaction so my our of pocket cost would be lower. I am actually still using the CVS cash cards I got a couple of weeks ago so this was basically free.

Use This Not That- Plastic Bags vs. Latex Gloves

I am not afraid to admit that I am a clean freak. I used to clean using latex disposable gloves but I hated spending money on something that I knew was bad for the environment. Then I decided to try using plastic bags and they work great. My hands are protected from the harsh chemicals in cleaning products and I don’t feel bad when I throw them away because they didn’t cost anything.

Savings- $3 to $5 for each box of gloves

Use This Not That- Hand Towels vs. Paper Towels

In my kitchen, as often as possible, we use hand towels and rags instead of paper towels. We don’t use many of them but I keep an extra hamper by the kitchen that I throw them in after we have used them. We throw them in with regular household laundry and keep clean hand towels in a drawer. We save trees and money by not having to buy paper towels.

Savings- At least $6 for a pack of six (I’m not really sure because I almost never buy them)
