Last Week of Library coupons

It is pick any two coupons at the library this week. Pretty good selection!

FHE Packets

Hey y'all.
I'm doing another order for FHE packets from www.hatchpatchcreations.com
I've already emailed a lot of people, but I'm sure there's folks I missed.

I'm ordering SACRAMENT and JONAH and the WHALE this time around. But you can order whatever you want. They are $5 each precolored. ($3 each not colored)
Our family has really enjoyed them.

If you are interested, shoot me an email ASAP so I can see if I have enough people to get the group discount.

Thanks!

Free Groceries from Kraft

I wanted to make sure this really worked before I posted it so I checked it out yesterday--and it worked! Kraft and Shoppers are running a great deal for the next week. Check it out here.

The deal is is that you can only buy items from their "shopping list", which you can print from the site above. Make sure you follow the rules on the exact items and ounces for the rebate to be legit. Now I know a lot of this food is junk type food, but it's basically free so I wasn't complaining.

Here is what I did:

• I printed off the shopping list from the website above


• I noted items on the list that I already had coupons for before going to Shoppers


• At Shoppers I found a gazillion more coupons to go along with the products (the coupons are located on the Kraft displays at the front of the store and back by the meat department)


• Buy the items listed that total up to $25 dollars. Make sure that if you are using coupons that your final total, on the certain items, will still be $25. (I ended up using $21 in coupons and spent $28.12 after all of the coupons were deducted.)


• Make sure you get your rebate slip from the cashier and the $5 Shoppers printout.


• After paying I went and bought $5 more in groceries in order to use my Shoppers printout.


• Fill out your rebate and drop it in the mail.
  

So here was my total:

I used $21 in coupons

I spent $28.12, out of pocket, on my first transaction

I spent .43 cents on my second transaction after using my $5 coupon

I will get a $20 rebate check back in the mail

So, in the very end, I will have ended up paying only $8.55 and the price of one stamp for all 24 items--not too bad for $54.55 worth of groceries (that's an 84% savings).

The bananas, 2 bags of carrots, and bread crumbs were my $5 purchases. I had 2 coupons that stated that if I bought Ritz crackers I got a box of Wheat Thins free. I also used $1 off each CPK coupons, $1 off 2 cream cheese coupons, and the other coupons I used were all from the displays in the store.

Happy shopping!

Gymboree and Crazy 8 Codes

I was given these two Circle of Friends postcards at Gymboree the other day and I thought someone may find them useful. If anyone wants the actual Gymboree card to use in the store let me know and it's yours. There's no way I'll be using it during those dates. :)

Toddlin' Time Classes

Toddlin' Time in Manassas has classes for kiddies 10 months-4 years old. I took Lauren to a few sessions when she was little and it's a really nice program and a really nice teacher. The sessions are 6 weeks and cost $50. I am going to go to their open house on Thursday, Sept 10 or Friday, Sept 11 and if I bring a friend, we both get a free class. Anyone want to go? I also found a coupon in an ad today for $6 off, so it could end up only costing around $36 for 6 weeks.

I want to sign up Ryan for the Monday class from 11-12. Here is the link to the schedule.

New Library Movies

The library now has 17 Again and The Soloist available to check out. Happy free renting.

Free Baby Furniture

Carol Ferguson is giving away the Jenny Lind crib, high chair, and bassinet they have used for their grandchildren. Knowing Carol, I'm sure they are in excellent condition. She says that the color is a medium wood stain, lighter than cherry and darker than almond. Give her a call if you or someone you know could use these things! 703-753-7846

Library Coupons Aug 10

Not good. Golden Corral free kid's meal with adult purchase and KC's (didn't even pick that one up).

Old Navy Sale

Additional 50% off clearance at Old Navy. I think it ends tomorrow. At least the store in Fairfax did.
Good selection for girls, slim pickings for boys.
The sale happens twice a year in Jan and August. Good time to stock up for next summer!

This week it is a free topping at Pickle Bob's and BOGO free Auntie Anne's pretzel.
