Harris Teeter!

Harris Teeter is in the midst of a three day Triple coupon extravaganza. Yeah for me! BUT this time I did not find very many deals. Some of the best deals were the Hormel meals which ended up being $.04 each after coupons, and FREE Dean's French Onion Dip. The best deal by far in my opinion was the Sara Lee bread (which was on sale for $1.79). At Harris Teeter until April 1, 08 when you purchase Sara Lee Bread you receive $2.00 automatically off a gallon of Harris Teeter brand Milk. So, after using a coupon from about three weeks ago for a free loaf of Sara Lee bread I ended up paying only $1.59 for a gallon of Milk. SWEET!! Even if you did not have any of the coupons for the bread this is still an awesome deal. Happy Shopping!

I Got a VAN!!

After weeks of looking for a new to me van I finally found one. It was very stressful, but I did it. I am very happy with my choice. I got a 2001 Mazda MPV van. It is very pretty, but the best part is that I was able to pay cash!!! YEAH!! NO Car payment! My husband wanted a car payment, but not me. My husband should learn that the wife always gets her way. LOL The outcome is just what we needed for our family. If anyone is going through what I just went through then I will keep you in my prayers.

Free 411 and DIRECTIONS!

I do not know about you, but I am really bad about dialing 411 all the time. I have racked up some 411 bills in the past. Until, I was turned onto FREE 411. I do not know much about it except that you call, tell them where you want the number to , you listen to a 10 second ad, and then you get your number. Nothing else to it. I have this number on speed dial now.

Just recently I found another number that I have speed dialed. My husband travels alot and I get lost alot so, we have been saving for 2 navigational systems until I discovered DIRECTIONS. All you do is dial DIRECTIONS on your phone and give them your destination and then your starting point, and they text you the mapquest directions. Wonderful! I had to test it out a few times to make sure it does work and yep it does. Free of charge unless you get charged for texting.

CVS

A good deal I found at CVS this week that I have not seen anyone mention is they have there Alavert on sale for $6.99 (reg 10.99) and you get $3.00 back in ECBs. Plus if you use the $2.00 off coupon from Sundays paper then your total would be 1.99 for a 12-15 tab box of Alavert after ECBS. Great deal for anyone who uses Alavert. (Limit is 1)

Stressed...

I am usually not a person that gets stressed, but the last few days I have been. I am trying to purchase a new to me minivan, and it is not going as well as I would like it. First problem is that my husband is out of town and usually comes home on the weekends, but he has to work this weekend. Then, for what I am looking for the minivan pool is very slim in Gastonia. My husband wants us to go in debt up to our ears for a new van, but I have many issues with that. I hate to put out money if I do not have to. If I can find a used good deal I can pay cash for I am happy. My biggest problem with a car payment is my husbands disease. My husband suffers from a bad case of Chron's disease and you never know when your going to have medical expense or long hospital stays. I am very aggrevated at the whole situation. I have my husbands step-father helping me look for one when he can, but I always feel like I am bothering people. Keep your fingers crossed for me you never know one may grow on one of my trees in the back yard and then all my issues would be solved.

Rite Aid

I do not know about the majority of people, but I tend to buy anywhere from 10- 15 papers on decent coupon weeks and on great coupon week I have been know to get about 40. This week I have around 40, so when I went to Rite Aid to get the FREE Excedrine the cashier looked at me like I was crazy. Probably because all I had was 13 boxes of Excedrine and 1 bottle of Ibuprofen. The cashier acted like she did not want to take the coupons. Like I was stealing from them. She stopped after scanning 3 coupons and had to take out her glasses and read the fine print. She said she thought most coupons have a limit on them, but not the Excedrine they say 1 coupon per product. My grand total was $4.42. I had to pay the tax and for the Ibuprofen!

Walgreens!

This week I decided to try my hand at Walgreen's. For some reason this store has just never appealed to me, but this week they are offering register rewards when you buy 2 boxes of Oil of Olay soap and they are priced at 2/4. With the coupons from a couple of weeks ago for $2 off of 1 I was able to get these for FREE! The best part was after I got them for FREE they gave me a Register Reward of $4. I do believe that quite possibly I would buy just about anything if the store pays me something to take it. I am sure I have my limits. I haven't encountered anything yet, but I am sure. Have you ever seen something like this and just said never mind, Looks like to much of a hassel to deal with, or I just do not want that product? Let me know!!

Revolution Money Exchange

I just gave in and signed up the the Revolution Money Exchange that everyone is buzzing about.The idea of it looks great, the only down side I see is so far I do not think Ebay recognizes it as a form of payment. I had an Ebay auction winner ask me a couple of days ago if she could pay using the RME, but I knew nothing of it. I wonder if you could make it like the customer paid you cash or check with Ebay, but have them pay RME. I do not know I hate to feel like I am cheating someone. If anyone finds anything out about this subject please let me know.

If you would like to sign up for the RME right now they are offering a $25.00 sign up bonus that I received immediately, and if you let me refer you they will give me an additional $10.00. If you would like to go through me just Email me at Mndrsn712 AT Hotmail.COM, and please be sure to include the Email address you will use with RME.
