Tuesdays Table

Two quick stores and then I am done for the week. Here is what I did with some of my Register Rewards. I paid $1.01 out of pocket for all this at Walgreens. The Kleenex with 110 in the box is on sale for .79 with a store coupon, so of course I used a manufacturer coupon as well. And eggs are .99 a dozen if you need some this week to finish up your baking. I love being able to look up an item I need in Savings Angel and find where I should pick it up.



Then I dashed into Meijer for a couple stellar deals. The Tropicana had a manufacturer coupon as well as a Meijer Mealbox coupon to make them .50. The All was $1.49 after coupons. My total began at $22 and I spent just over $9 after my coupons. So now I can get back to my wrapping and look forward to the clearance sales after Friday. Does anyone else love those things? Where do you like to go?

50 Free prints and $15 off any order at Shutterfly

I thought this one was worth my time. I still haven't settled on an online photo service. I just keep trying deals to see what I like, especially when they are free. So if you you are new customer at Shutterfly, you get 50 free prints. They are good for a month, so don't forget to print up those Christmas snapshots after all the festivities. Then you can go here and learn how to add $15 to your account.

Walgreens Deals

Well, I'm having a little photo trouble over here. So if there is a picture, be impressed. If you have any Huggies coupons, Walgreens is the deal this week. They are 8.99 with a $2 Register Reward. So with my $2 coupon from the Parade 2 weeks ago, they were 4.99. Then I also picked up the Complete Contact Solution, because it was free after register rewards. This is the third week of Contact Solution for free. I wonder how long into 2010 I can go without having to pay for it now that I'm stocked up. I also picked up Hunts 3/$1 and 4 Little Christmas bags for $1 - mostly so I had enough items to use up a lot of Register Rewards from last week.

Okay, I'm off to figure out my camera issues. I have 3 Christmas programs in 5 days....so I don't know how much other shopping I will do. I'm trying to finish up a couple things online. I didn't know that even ebay gets pricey this time of year.

I know that I haven't been blogging much lately. I've been too busy working the deals myself, along with baking, decking the halls, digging out the driveway and attending Christmas Programs! Here are some of the blogs I'm loving this season"

Have fun out there, but stay on budget.

Walgreens sale through Saturday

I had some serious fun at Walgreens today. The store was really quiet, so I was able to do 2 checkouts and think at the same time. The first thing to know is that thru Saturday they have $5 register reward back on a purchase of $25 - before coupons. The second thing to know is that they have a ton of things that are free after Register Rewards. So you can go and just pick up the items on the endcap that are free after RR and make sure your total hits $25. I got the Renu, Stayfree with coupons as well. The Oil of Olay BOGO coupon is in your most recent P&G coupon book and there is a rebate for the Quench lotion. Won't those make a really nice gift bag for a teacher??? So I used up my register rewards from last week and only spent $30.60, I got back $40 in Register Rewards and I will do the rebate on the Oil of Olay for $20. Can that mean I will make a $30 profit on the items purchased above!!! :) Yep, so long as I use the Register Rewards by December 25th. If I keep using them on items that trigger another Register Reward...I keep buying many toiletries and even food for free. You can save a lot of money by knowing how this system works and working it.

Tuesday's Table

No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth....my printer did...then the computer did. We got a new laptop at Black Friday sales, but I still need to order some color cartridges. I basically sat out the Thanksgiving sales since I couldn't print the coupons I needed to put together the best deals. Hopefully I'm up and running again. I would love to hear from you in the comments to know what kind of things you like to see here. I've been feeling like I'm blogging to myself out here!


I've been doing well at Walgreens lately and so had some Register Rewards to use. You can see what I got above. After coupons my total was $3.09, so I used a $2 RR and paid $1.09 out of pocket for my 6 items and 5 fillers. I just realized, I should have used a coupon for my filler or it would have been less. I had a total of 9 coupons to use plus my Register rewards, so I chose the bags to bring my item count up. And I got a RR for $5 on the Triaminic.
