Triple Coupons at Pathmark!

Starting this FRI, SAT and SUN, Pathmark will be tripling coupons!  They are tripling up to a $1.  That means your $1 coupon becomes a $3 off coupon.  I will post again on Thurs with some deal ideas.  The only catch is there is a maximum of 10 coupons allowed per day.

My free samples for the week of April 17th



Each I will post the free samples that I got in the mail that week.

It is worth registerign for free samples for 2 reasons...


1. You get free stuff

2. You almost always get a high value coupon with your sample

3.  It is fun to open the mail box and pull something out besides bills.



I received free samples of Secret and Degree deoderant, Avery tabs, Sinus rinse, coupons from Proctor & Gamble, Wisk, GUM flossers and Nonni biscotti.



Not so Extreme Couponing

I am sure by now that if you are reading this then you have already seen the show "Extreme Couponing" that airs on TLC on Wednesday nights.  I think it is ironic that the show airs right before "Hoarding: Buried Alive."

I have some pretty strong views on the show and I will address one of them today.  Most of the people featured on this show are just organized hoarders.  It is disgusting to see how selfish they are on the show. 

Who needs 535 deodorants?  I don't care how much your husband smells- he will NEVER use that many deodorants in his lifetime.  Even if you believe in reincarnation- he will still not use them all in his next life either! 

Have any of those hoarders thought of helping another person?  They could make such an impact in their community if they gave away some of their hoard!

I will not dwell on this forever but I will say that it inspired me to be even more diligent in my quest to "Coupon for a Cause."  I have comitted to spending $5 a week on items to donate.  With my couponing skills I can make that $5 go a long way.

Here is some of what I was able to donate to the food bin at my church this week...

7 bags of frozen veggies

2 Frank's Red Hot bottles

4 French's mustard

8 cans Carnation Evaporated milk

3 cake mixes

1 brownie mix

The women featured on the TLC show would have hoarded these items in their extreme stockpiles.   The one woman even said she loves her stockpile almost as much as her family.  She is missing out on the joy she could receive from helping others!

It is worth registerign for free samples for 2 reasons...

Target is my friend again...

Target and I have gotten back together. As some of you remember, Target and I had a falling out.   I went to Target this week with coupons in hand and had no trouble at all.

Here is what I got....

I was able to get 4 bottles of Similac at $5.49 each and used a $5.00 off coupon making the Similac 49 cents a bottle!  I also got the Enfamil double refill pack on sale for $31.89 and used a $5.00 off coupon making the Enfamil $26.89.

I had a coupon for a FREE bottle of 2 liter Pepsi.

The Rimmel mascars was $2.99 and I had a $3.00 coupon making it FREE.

The Target pantiliners were 89 cents and I had a Target coupon for 50 cents off making them just 39 cents.

The Aveeno lotions were $2.99 each and I had $3 off of 2 coupon and 2 Target coupons for $1.00 off each which made both lotions FREE

I needed sunscreen for the baby for this summer so it was $6.29 and I had a $1.00 off Target coupon making it $5.29.  Not the best price but it will do.

Sydney always has birthday parties to go to so I decided to stock up on these games that are good for both girl and boy parties.

The Connect 4 was on sale for $8 and I had a $3.00 off coupon making the gane $5.00

The Sorry was on sale for $10 and I had a $3.00 off coupon making it $7.00

Free Measuring Spoon Set

Thanks to my friend Liz for this great freebie.  The spoons are from Cosmo Cucina and you can get the details on Liz's blog.

Extreme Couponing on TLC

As most of you know, I spent last night watching "Extreme Couponing" on TLC.  I have some strong opinions about the show.

First, I think you should read what my friend Liz at, Frugalista Find has to say.  She wrote up a really good summary/opinion piece about the show. 

I will add my "two cents" tomorrow.

FREE Mother's Day Card from Tiny Prints

You can get a FREE Mother's Day card from Tiny Prints.   You will need to enter the promo code 4MOM at checkout.  I ordered the card in the picture above with a picture of Sydney and Lucas inserted in it. I was also able to personalize it with my own message.  My mother in law will love it and I love that it was free.

What to do with expired coupons?

What do you do with all of those expired coupons?  If you are like me you probably throw them out.  Here in NJ stores will not take expired coupons.

Don't throw them away.  I just disovered online that expired coupons can be used for up to 3 months past their expiration date on military bases. 

I found a blog post that explains how to get your expired coupons to someone on a military base that can use them.  It is a small but easy way to support our military families.
