GREAT DEAL ON PRINTER FOR PRINTING COUPONS

The Brother HL-2200 printers have long been the printer of choice for most avid coupons. I have owned the 2240 and the 2270DW. Well, I Just noticed on the Staples site that they have the Brother HL-2280DW for $99.99 with free, one-day, shipping. You also get 5% back in Staples Rewards. It is wireless, and it prints, copies, and scans. I sure wish I was in the market, but my HL-2270DW is still going strong. This offer expires on 2/22 and, according to my online search, is available online and in many stores.

Saved 98% @ Bi-Lo!

I just got back from Bi-Lo, where I did the most amazing deals! Right now, they have a deal to get $5 off instantly at the register when you spend $15. Those is a large selection of health/beauty/cleaning supplies to choose from, and you can mix or match them anyway you want. I did three deals and learned that there was a limit of one deal per transaction. But the associates were nice enough to find a way to give me the credit that I didn't get in my first transaction. Although this may have been because the register calculated my purchases as $14.90 instead of $15. I really don't understand that. I also used several Publix coupons and two $5/$25 Family Dollar coupons. This is what I bought:

TRANSACTION #1

6 Soft Scrub @ $2.50 = $15

Received $5 Instant Savings = $4

The total Bi-Lo value of everything that I bought was $105.01. The total that I paid was $2.12 plus tax. I saved $102.89 or 98%! It was a really awesome trip.

REALLY CHEAP LANCE CRACKERS

CHEAP SMUCKERS AT PUBLIX!

Beginning with the new ad which starts tomorrow or Thursday, depending on where you live, Publix will have Smuckers jams, jellies, and preserves on BOGO at $3.49. Well, a new coupon has become available, making this an even better deal, especially if your store doubles. Go HERE to print your 50¢ off one coupon, which will make them about 75¢ per jar, if your store doubles, and about 1.25 each if it does not. The favorite in our house is the sugar free cherry preserves. They are amazing!

Please remember that some stores' prices may vary a little.

Saved 74% @ Publix

I didn't buy very much at Publix this week, but got some great deals. In addition to what you see in the picture, I bought an 18pk of Pepsi 12oz cans. This is what I bought:

2 Lucky Charms (2/1.39)
2 Reese's Puffs (2/1.39)
2 Velveeta Casseroles (2/1.39)
2 V8 Splash (2/1.94)

2 Smart Balance (2/FREE + 41¢)
4 Grands Biscuits (4/40¢)
4 Friskies Cat Food (4/1.84)
1 Pepsi 18pk (3.99)

The total Publix value was $52.54. I paid $13.41. I saved $39.13 or 74%.

SAVED 89% @ BI-LO

I had a really amazing trip to Bi-Lo this week. I had a short list, but it contained some awesome deals. I had several competitors' coupons, but didn't really know how I was going to use them. But It didn't take long to figure them out. Here it what I bought:

2 SH Styro Plates 50ct (2/1.15)
4 Herbal Essence Hair Care (4/FREE)
10 Candy Packs (10/$3)
2 Newtons Fruit Thins (2/2.48)
6 Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup (6/2.74)
2 Cooked Perfect Meatballs (2/ 98¢)
1 All Mighty Pacs (1.58)
1 Totinos Pizza (9¢)
6 Canisters Kool-Aid (6/FREE + 3.04 overage)

The total Bi-Lo value before any sales or coupons was $82.61. The total that I paid was $8.98 plus tax. I saved $73.63 or 89%.  I also gained 10¢ in fuel perks for the candy.

There has been some controversy over the use of the $5/2 Clairol coupon being used on things other than the hair color. However, the coupon states that it can be used on any Clairol product. If, in the future, the company intends for the use of their coupons to be limited to certain items, they will make it clear on the coupon. I used generic competitor's catalina coupons for the pizza, paper plates, and laundry detergent. I also used Dollar General coupons on the Kool-Aid, including B2G1 coupons. The manager took off the full amount of $3.99 for each of them.

Saved 82% at Bi-Lo

 I had a really great week at Bi-Lo this week. I picked up a couple of things that I didn't have a coupon for, but I had competitors' coupons that made up for them. Here is what I bought.

4 Bags Dixie Crystals Sugar (4/3.96)
1 Ore-Ida Potatoes (1.98)
6 Old El Paso Seasoning Packets (6/1.12)

I also used a $5 off $25 Save-A-Lot coupon. The price before any sales or coupons was $87.92. The total that I paid was $15.41. I saved $72.51 or 82%. Any time I save more than 60% on an order that contains meat, it is a great day!

GREAT DEAL ON SUGAR ENDS TODAY

 I just wanted to remind you guys about the great sugar deal that ends today. Bi-Lo has the 4lb bag of Dixie Crystals sugar on sale for $1.99. There is a 50¢ off one coupon on their web page, which will double, making the sugar just 99¢! In addition to that, you will receive 3¢ in fuel perks for each bag that you buy. I bought 4 bags, paid $3.96, and received 12¢ in fuel perks. That's the equivalent of $2.40 in gas savings.

UPDATE: This price has actually been extended through July 16. However, the bonus fuel perks will not be part of the deal.

AWESOME CVS TRIP

This is the best CVS trip I have had in a long time, though a little unconventional. I had planned to buy 2 bags of Kit Kat Minis, because I had both store and manufacturer's coupons for them, but they were out. When I requested a raincheck, my cashier asked me if I would like to substitute something else. I told her no, because I had coupons for the Kit Kat. She assured me that the coupons would work, and even went to the shelf and got the Rolo Minis for me. I certainly hope that she doesn't get into any trouble. The register also accepted the $2/2 Pantene Products IP without beeping, even though I had already used 2 Pantene BOGO coupons. I did have to split this into 2 transactions, because their registers will not accept 2 identical store coupons in the same transaction. This is what I bought.

1 Charmin Basic 12pk @ 5.99
    used 25¢ coupon from PG 7/07
2 Bounty Towels 6pk @ 5.99
    used (2) 25¢ coupons from PG 7/07
4 Pantenes @ 2/$7
    used (2) BOGO coupons from PG 7/07
    used $2/2 printable
2 Rolo Minis @ 2/$6
    used (2) $1/1 Kit Kat Minis printable, no longer available
    used (2) $2.50/1 Kit Kat Minis, CVS coupons, printable

My total before any coupons was $37.97, though the CVS value was $54.21. I also had a $4 off $20 purchase coupon that CVS had emailed to me. After this and all of my other coupons, I paid $14.60 and received $10 back in ECBs. That makes the final cost just $4.60.

MY BI-LO TRIP 6/24

I had a really good trip to Bi-Lo this week. The best part was that they accepted my Family Dollar $5 off $25 coupon. In addition to that, I had several ecoupons that applied. Here is what I bought.

24-pk Angel Soft Tissue
2 Fruit Roll-Ups
2 Keebler Cookies
8 Chef Boyardee Pasta
1 Simply Orange
1 Gatorade
2 lbs cubed steak

The sub-total before any sales or savings was 46.57. The total that I paid was 10.77. I saved 35.80 or 77%. I think that's great, considering half the cost was meat. The cubed steak was regularly priced at 10.03, so this was almost like buying the cubed steak and getting everything else for free.
