$5 coupon for World's Best Cat Litter

Go here to print the coupon. Don't forget there is a mail-in rebate for up to $12.99 on this litter! Most rebates don't count coupons, so you should still be able to get the full amount back!

(Thanks, SouthernSavers!)

2 Nice Freebies

FREE Charmin Toilet Roll Extender (Thanks, CouponersUnited!)

FREE Kamikaze Cleaning ebook, just sign up for the Busy Homemaker newsletter (Thanks, MoneySavingMom!)

$100 P&G Coupon Savings Book

If you like coupons and P&G products, this little book will be great for you. It is pretty easy to get; buy $50 worth of P&G products between 2/1 and 4/15, then fill out the form and send it in with your receipts. You'll receive a coupon book with $100 in coupons for P&G products.

I know that doesn't sound very exciting. However, the $50 is BEFORE coupons and discounts! With the right combination of sales and coupons, you'll have very little out of pocket (I'm shooting for $10 or less personally). The coupon book has some nice high dollar and BOGO coupons, so it is worth getting. I don't think anyone has gotten their book yet, but it is possible that these coupons will even double.

The form you'll need to fill out and a list of the coupons inside can be found here.

FREE Rouge Magazine! Comes with Coupons!

Lord knows I love free. I like it even better when I can save money too. If you like either of these two things, you'll want to sign up for Rouge.

Rouge is free to sign up for. It is offered by Proctor & Gamble, who put coupons for their brands in each issue. I love P&G products and can always use more coupons. While you wait for your issues to arrive, check out the Winter issue at the main site.

(Thanks, Hip2Save!)

**Rouge is also available to Canadians! Just go here to pick from English or French text.**

New Olay $15 Rebate

Olay has another great rebate for $15. This time it is for purchasing 3 facial moisturizers, treatments, cleansers; body and hand lotions, body washes and 6+ bar packs by March 12. The rebate form can be found here.

Keep this rebate in mind while shopping this weekend and keep an eye out for deals. I'll be looking for deals at the drugstores, but anywhere could have a deal. My Publix has some Olay facial cleansers on clearance 2/6.99 (that's only $10.49 for 3!). Don't forget you can use coupons with this rebate too!

Buy Pyrex, get FREE Music!

I've been looking at Pyrex lately and found this great offer: buy $30 worth of Pyrex between July 1, 2009 and July 31, 2010 and you can get 30 FREE music downloads! Just fill out the online form here and follow the directions on how to mail in your receipts/UPCs.

This is great if you'll be buying Pyrex for a gift or even for yourself!

Mail Call! Puffs

I got a postcard from Puffs today. It had a $1 coupon off a single Puffs. Unfortunately, it expires 2/28, so I may not be able to use it. Oh, well, still nice to get.

If you'ld like to get on Puffs mailing list, visit P&G Everyday Solutions. You can also sign up for some great free samples.

CVS ---- saved 83%!

I went to CVS Wednesday on the way to pick up my friend to go to Publix. I knew CVS has a deal running till 2/20 on Glade items, buy $12 worth and get $4 ECB. The items in the sale are running at $6 or 2/$6, so $12 is not hard to hit. The Glade Sense and Spray is in this deal too; get the coupon I mention here before you go! There are also some awesome coupons in the 2-7 SmartSource.

I feel cursed sometimes when it comes to CVS. I have a very hard time getting deals because the items I want are always out of stock, and I do mean always. I have rainchecks from last year I haven't been able to use and I've gone to 5+ CVS's in my area.

Luckily, there were some Glade items left on the shelves this time!

Trip summary:
I bought 3 Glade Reed Diffusers and 1 10oz candle in 2 transactions to lower my out of pocket. I also had a $2 ECB (quarterly) and a $1 ECB from scanning my GreenBagTag. Regular price for these items is $9.99.

Total before savings and coupons: $39.96
Total out of pocket: $6.94
-------------------------------
saved 83% + a $4 ECB for next time -- I also used a $25 gift card from transferring a prescription to pay

Publix ----- saved 68%!

I also went to Publix Wednesday. I went with Mom and a friend for the senior discount and the great Viva Italia sale going on now. This sale covers Progresso, Green Giant, Muir Glen, Pillbury, and Totinos items. Publix also has a coupon sheet available with store coupons for some of the brands in the sale and a great $5 off coupon for buying 20 items! You can get most of the coupons here, look in store for the $5 one. There should be a display in your Publix or you can ask at the service desk. These store coupons can be combined with manufacturer coupons for maximum savings.

Trip summary:
I bought 18 boxes of Green Giant frozen veggies. I also bought 3 Pillsbury cinnamon rolls (there is a $1 store coupon on the Viva Italia sheet). I also got some jelly for my sister's wedding reception.

Total before savings and coupons: $39.72
Total out of pocket: $12.35
---------------------------
saved 68% ---- my friend saved about 55% this time!

Bi-lo ----- saved 53%

I went shopping Wednesday for just a few items. I like Wednesday, because seniors, like Mom, get a discount at Bi-lo and Publix.  For Bi-lo, you will need a special loyalty card to get the discount; just check with the service desk at your store. Photo Id is good enough at Publix.

Trip summary:
I got 11 bags of Baked Lays. They are part of the 8 week Price Lock sale Bi-lo has right now. I also got a FREE box of SH Chocolate Pudding Sugar Free (for filling out the Bi-lo receipt survey).

Total before savings and coupons: $43.26
Total out of pocket: $20.22

saved 53%

New coupons! Del Monte & Shortcuts.com

Go here to print a $1/4 Del Monte products coupon! These go great with a BOGO sale!

Shortcuts.com has some new coupons available! These coupons go on your shopper loyalty card; the service works with multiple stores when the card is swiped (I use it with Kroger). Best of all, these coupons can be stacked with store AND manufacturer coupons! The new coupons include Betty Crocker and Pillsbury; these items are part of the "buy 10, get $3 off instantly" deal at Kroger this week! Head to Cellfire for even more coupons.

Freebies! Tide, Beyond BodiHeat, & Nabisco

-- Go here and enter the Design contest. Everyone entering qualifies for a FREE sample! (Thanks, Couponers United!)


Enter your email here and fill out a short survey to get a FREE sample of Beyond BodiHeat. (Thanks, Hip2Save!)


Become a fan of Nabisco Cookies Facebook page; they will be giving out coupons for FREE cookies when you buy a package and 2 gallons of milk starting March 1. It looks like this will be a regular promotion the first Monday of every month. (Thanks, MomsbyHeart!)

Mail Call! SweetLeaf and eBay

I got a nice little gift from SweetLeaf Sweetener today. It's a little pocket pack to help carry around 4 stevia sample packets that they included. There's also a 25% off coupon for BuyWisdom, their store with different stevia products and tea (I had no idea there was flavored stevia!). All I had to do to get this was become a fan of their Facebook page. This promotion is over, but fan their page and you'll have a jump on the next promotion.

I also got some coupons that I bought from an eBay seller. We go through a lot of cereal and it would be hard to acquire enough coupons without eBay and coupon clipping services. I paid about $5 for $15 worth of coupons. Now, that is only a $10 savings at first glance. However, when I combine these coupons with a sale, I should be able to save about $60! The coupons are even clipped for me (note that coupons can not be "sold", only the time/effort to get the coupon can be "bought").

Sorry for the lack of posts

Sorry for the lack of posts the last couple of days. I've been working on my Sister's wedding reception and I picked up a small stomach bug. The reception prep is going well and I'm better now, so posting will continue apace.
