I opened my e-mail a little while ago and my husband says “wait a minute, what’s that?” Since these two caught his attention, I guess I should post them for all of you gentlemen, or for you ladies to enter for your husbands. Both sweepstakes are meant to appeal to men (cash, ATV, basketball finals trip), so maybe you’ll be able to win a great prize for your hubby.

Christie over at Wild for Wags had a reader report that there was a misprint with the Hershey’s RR deal. You will get a $5 RR for buying $10 worth, but it will be good only on more Hershey’s products. Not a horrible deal, but it does put a cramp in our scenarios for this week. I’m off to do some revamping and e-mail people that I wrote personal scenarios for. You can check out Christie’s post with a picture of {Read More}

There are a few deals that you can pick up tonight if your store is not a 24 hr. store. Many stores go ahead and put their signage up for the following week’s RR deals (they will be dated to start on Saturday). The sale prices will switch over on the Sat evening, but the RRs won’t print. You can ask your manager to honor the RR deal and most will modify the price of your items to reflect the {Read More}

Since I can’t personally go shopping with everyone, the best way I know of to help people learn how to roll ECBs and RRs is to write scenarios based on the items they want to buy. If you want me to write you up a scenario for shopping at Walgreens or CVS this week you can comment or e-mail me the items you want, (must have a specific price in the ad) the Qs you have to use and the {Read More}

If you are following my scenarios you’ll be starting this week with a $10 RR. After that crazy Almay deal popped up, I’m betting that you probably have at least 1 $5 RR too, so I’ve included that. *Walgreens has issued an amendment to the Hershey’s deal and that RR is now only valid on Hershey’s products. This scenario has been changed to reflect that.” Transaction 1 2 Colgate Total Toothpastes @ 6 2 Edge or Skintimate @ 4 2 {Read More}
