If you’re like me, you don’t like having your pictures and buttons over in your sidebar labeled. It just seems silly to label the button for Pary Moppins with “Pary Moppins” or the button for Coupon Dede with “Coupon Dede” The problem with this is that if you’re trying to add a picture or html box without labeling it, you have a hard time moving it around because it looks like all the other pictures or html boxes. Make sense? {Read More}

Money in Your Tummy
How much money is in your tummy? Not literally of course, but how much money have you invested in what goes in your tummy? When you’re trying to pinch pennies, it’s not enough to buy a product at extreme discounts. You need to consider how far that product will go for you. Retail price of a bag of Doritos: $2.99 at Walmart or $3.99 at the grocery and drugstores. Weight of a bag of Doritos: 12.5 oz. Retail price of {Read More}
$5 Dinners Week of 5/30 $4.95 Average Cost
My goal is to provide dinner for my family for an average of $5 except on special occasions. We don’t have to eat beans and rice to accomplish this goal! I shop from my stockpile to avoid high prices at the store. We typically only cook a main dish 4 or 5 times a week. Each main dish cooked will serve 4-6, and the leftovers will be for easy dinners on the weekend, or to freeze for another week. This {Read More}
Walgreens Updates 5/29
I’m glad that many of you were also able to find crackerfuls at your stores. For those of you who found the substitution signs, did they have good stock? I’m also wondering if the RR for the substitutions has been turned on at all stores. Has anyone tried this when there wasn’t any signage? I’m reading on other sites that some people were even given rainchecks for the crackerfuls that stated “free”, as crazy as that is. Please report and {Read More}
Walgreens Insufficient Stock
Not that anyone is even remotely surprised by this news (unless you live in a small town with few couponers), but it is certainly frustrating that Walgreens is announcing insufficient stock for next week’s RR deals before the ad has even become effective. Here is a report by Christie of WildforWags (thanks Amanda for alerting me) It’s upsetting to think of the hours I have spent writing scenarios to benefit all of you, and now those scenarios won’t even be {Read More}
Walgreens 5/29 Scenarios for Groceries
Some of these sale prices only go through Monday, so keep that in mind when planning your shopping this week. I have two scenarios for you that both start with an $8 RR. One buying exclusively food items (the products that might be on your list), and one that uses a moneymaker (something not on your list that you could donate) to stretch your grocery dollars. This is an effective way to grocery shop when there are good grocery prices {Read More}

Is Your Brookshire’s Taking Donations for Joplin?
If you’re looking for a place in the Tyler area to donate supplies for Joplin, try calling your local Brookshire’s. Super Savin’ Mom says there is a trailer at her Brookshire’s that will be driven up to Joplin tomorrow (Sunday) morning with all the donated supplies. I’m guessing this was at the Whitehouse store. Check those stockpiles everyone!
Savings Review 5/28
The household budget for our family is $500 a month and includes all groceries, household products, clothing, gifts, decorations and newspapers. A little on the lean side? Perhaps, but it works for our family. Whether your number is $300 or $1000, you should do what works for your family. What a nice week this was. The only shopping I did was one teeny little purchase at Walgreens. My husband did the rest! We are getting low on milk and produce, so {Read More}
