Loose Change for Coupons

I have found a new way to pay for my coupons on Sundays! Since we've moved I haven't had a chance to look into having my papers delivered yet. So here is my new method of getting my savings.

We throw all our loose change during the week into a Jar. Typically that was our "We need milk or diapers and payday isn't for two days" Fund. But the last couple of weeks I've been taking that change to the Coin Star at Walmart and using that money to pay for my 5 papers each week. So far it's more than paid for my papers!

So if your looking for a way to pay for your coupons try this out! You'd be surprised how much all that loose change can add up to!

Free Gain Dish Soap!

I picked up 3 of the Gain Dish Soaps.
Used 2 coupons -$1 Gain Dish Liquid (exp 9/30/2010) 8/29/2010 P&G
Paid $.73 including tax on all three.

I got the first 2 for free and used my $.22 overage on the third one!

Cost: $5.37
Manf. Coupons: $2.00
Store Coupon: $2.70
Paid : $.67 + $.06 tax

88% Savings!

I only had two coupons otherwise I would have stocked up even more.

Bring on the Coupons!

What a whirlwind these past few months have been. We left Vegas two and a half weeks later than we had originally planned but we made it to Wichita Falls Texas in one piece and I'm so glad I decided to box up and take a good chunk of my stockpile with us in the Truck.

I have an overwhelming need to get back into couponing. Last week I went and purchased my papers at Walmart to start getting my coupon stash back up. I haven't had a chance to check out what deals the local paper may have to get them delivered to me but in the mean time I'll be heading out every Sunday to get those coupons!

In the two and a half months I didn't do Coupons our grocery budget went thru the roof. Because I couldn't stock up when things were on sale it became way more expensive in the long run. I'm ready to get back into it and start saving money.

My challenge will be coupon match ups. In Vegas I had Grocery Smarts to help me out with the match ups and to let me know when it was an ok deal or an amazing stock up deal. I'll try to post what I can. My Shopping options here are The Commissary, Walmart, Market Street (I think that's the name) and Albertsons.

This should prove to be a fun ride!

The Next Step

Today was a Sad day.....I Canceled my Newspaper subscriptions!! It was a very sad moment for me. But the reality was the coupons I'd be getting in the next two months I wouldn't be able to use so it was better to save the paper and the money and stop them now.

Also, Keep checking in. Sometime in the next two weeks I'm going to be selling a bunch of my stockpile items for cheap. The military won't move certain items and I have more than I would be able to fit into my truck for the move.

I will only be posting it on here!! Payment of Cash Only, and Pick up would be at Nellis/Las Vegas Blvd. At the base. (unless I will be in your area for some reason) Anyway it will be some cleaners, air fresheners, possibly deodorant, shampoo, conditioners, body wash.....

Hope everyone is getting some great deals!! I'm so bummed I'm missing out on some of them!
