Couponing- Deals i have come across this week

I have decided here lately that I am going to start couponing... I have couponed off and on for about a year, but i have realized how much money it has saved us!:)

I want to start with a deal I picked up at dillions this week: Amp Energy Drinks
Amp Energy drinks were .99 a piece if you buy 10 and i had two $1.50 of 4 cans of amp energy drink coupons so I picked up 20 amp energy drinks. Here is how the cost ended up
.99x20=19.80-3.00=$16.80 for 20 Amp Energy Drinks
Amp Energy Drinks are usually $2.39-$2.59 a piece depending on the convenience store you get them at. :) So this will end up saving us alot of money.


The second item is Farmland Bacon @ Ray's Apple Market, my friend Megan shared this deal with me...thanks!

I bought 3 packages of Farmland bacon for $2.99. I had three $1.00 off coupons for the bacon. So this is how it went for the Farmland Bacon: 2.99+2.99+2.99=8.97-3.00 in coupons=$5.97 for 3 packages of bacon! can you say WOW!! Everywhere else had 1 package of Farmland Bacon for $4.99.


The next item was toilet paper! Quilted Northeren Soft and Strong!
I picked up 24 rolls for $4.74! Heres how: Quilted Northern toilet paper is originally priced at $9.99. It was on sale for $5.99 and I had a coupon for 1.25 off so it came to 5.99-1.25=4.74 total cost!

The Fourth item is I got this Olay Gift Set from Walmart.com Value of the Day! It was $10!! And I received it in the mail and I filled out the $10 rebate for it!! I sent in my Rebate! So once my $10 comes back in the mail I will have gotten the Olay Gift Set for FREE!!! Who doesnt LOVE getting stuff for free!!My husband was okay with it! :)I love Olay especially for FREE!!

The next item was toothpaste: Aquafresh toothpaste
I picked up 4 tubes of toothpaste for .88 each! Heres how... I had 4 $1.00 off coupons to use toward this purchase. The toothpaste was on sale for $1.88 a piece! So it went like this 1.88+1.88+1.88+1.88=$7.52-4.00 in coupons =$3.52 for 4 tubes of toothpaste!! So happy about that deal since I brush my teeth anywhere between 3 to 4 times a day LOL!

The next item was Flashlights! HAHA This one was GrEat!!
I found two 1.00 off coupons for Rayovac Batteries and I went to Walmart and found rayovac flashlights for $1.00 that came with batteries!! So i picked up 2 flashlights and this is how i saved: 1.00+1.00=2.00-2.00 in coupons=FREE

Quote of the week- week 6

Here is the Quote of the Week:


Remember that it is nothing to do your duty, that is demanded of you and is no more meritorious than to wash your hands when they are dirty; the only thing that counts is the love of duty; when love and duty are one, then grace is in you and you will enjoy a happiness which passes all understanding.

W. Somerset Maugham,


ENJOY!!

Halloween 2011

The Ross halloween was very fun, I took Logan to Ashley Furniture which is where my best friend aka: "husband" works to carve pumpkins and have some goodies. logan wasnt very into carving the pumpkins but he played with his buddy Skyler for a bit, it was so adorable Logan went right up to him and gave him a big hug, he did the same for his other buddy Dane. Logan is so sweet and friendly. i think he will be a wonder pal! So we just hung out and Logan saw his daddy! Then it was time to go trick or treating, Logan was Elmo this year for halloween. He "LOVES" elmo, i dont know what it is about elmo but Logan has always loved him, which i think is pretty awsome! But anyway My husband, I, and Logan gathered for a family pic.
Here it is:

Here is Logan

Then we went trick or treating Logan had alot of fun at first but we skipped nap time and so he got very tired of trick or treating and whiny really fast so we only went for about an hour and came home, but Logan got plenty of candy for a 2 year old haha! He wanted to eat every kpiece he got! And he only took one piece of candy per house which was great! I hope next year Logan will be more into it!

How was your Halloween? What were your children for Halloween?



Quote of the week--week 5

It is that time again to post another amazing quote of the week, where does the time go!? haha

Here we go:

Let the world know you as you are, not as you think you should be, because sooner or later, if you are posing, you will forget the pose, and then where are you?  ~Fanny Brice

This weeks quote is about being yourself. I think being yourself is very important. I wouldnt want to be anyone else but myself, i am very happy with myself and i think that if someone doesnt like me bc im being myself who cares. You will not get anywhere in life pretending to be someone else or by being jeoulous of what someone else has.

Do you agree or disagree! i would love to hear what you think about this quote!?

I hope everyone has a wonderful and blessed week!
