Rite Aid Review

Hello again, to all  bloggers and coupon divas!  Its me again reporting what I did today using the deals and coupons available for this weekly ad. As usual,  I always go to Kroger and Walgreens every week.  But today I also tried Rite Aid because of that new promo ad "copying" (that's what I think) the CVS and Walgreens deals, their new Up wellness rewards.  So that is what I did, I went to purchase their sale for the week, the Colgate pro health toothpaste $2.99- 2 up wellness rewards = 99 cents less $1 coupon I have.  But... You guessed it!  It wasn't that easy.  The cashier said that I have to purchase $10 more in items!  Now, that is a rip off!  I didn't see there was any rule in that.  I guess I didn't read the ad well, but I wouldn't go there again!!

I don't have that problem when I go to Walgreens. Rite Aid ads are very misleading.  Don't get me started with their Pharmacy service. Now that's another story.  Long story short, I was not happy.  I returned the item before going out the store.  I just bought a clearance pack of diapers,  Now that at least make up for that shopping trip!!

Shopping at Farmfresh; Double Dollar

Hello again, I feel that I need to post here today about Double Dollar at Farmfresh until today.  I don't know if you've been there but I didn't go there yesterday or today.  I just don't find anything I want at Farmfresh.  Although it may be beneficial to you ladies who are planning to check their sale.  That is why, is anybody wants to share a comment on my blog about the sale in Farmfresh, please do so to help others with couponing.


I also wanted to ask the ladies who have expired coupons.  Please send them to military families.  They can use them up to 6 mos. behind the expiration date.  You can check out the details at www.opc.com.  It is good to help those who are serving our country by helping them in anyway we can, sending expired coupons.
Till then!! See ya.

Sharing the Knowledge

Hi everyone,

I just want to give you the link of the reporter who did an article about the coupon class at the churchland libary I taught last april. I was so happy that this class is better because I have something more to share than the one I did at our church. I met 12 wonderful ladies and not only that was awesome, I gained 12 friends. That is why I decided to do this blog; Is that I could give more insights about coupons and sales in our area. One of the ladies was the reporter, Pamela Nichols. If it wasn't for her, I don't think that I will strive to find more information about coupons. I have done more research before this class than anything else.

Shopping Today

Hi Ladies,

I am so sorry that it took me more than 2 weeks to post anything on my blog.  But let me assure you, I am still using coupons.  For a while, I didn't do any grocery coz' My husband lost his job 2 months ago so everything was tight.  But the good side of that is use all the Food storage I had.  But with God's blessing, He found a job and started yesterday.  So my report today is these groceries worth more than $120.00, I got it less than $60.  I was so glad the the following were free:

Nivea mens body wash $2.97 - 3C = free
Old Spice Mens body wash BOGO - BOGO C = free (2 bodywash)
Old Spice Mens body wash BOGO - BOGO C = free (2 bodywash)
2 Gallon of milk (when you buy 2/$5 of Kellogs cereal) = free
1 tub of Pampers wipes $1.97 - 2 C = free
1 dawn dish liquid 99cents - 1C = free
3 box of kleenex tissue 99cents ea. - 3RR = free
and the rest are a bargain.
I also still saved up about 10RR worth that I can use next time at Walgreens.  So there you have it, my shopping for this week.  On the picture you can't see that there are groceries underneath there.  But I was so happy, my budget was supposed to be $75 but I did less today. Happy shopping today ladies. Stock up on necessary items.  Mostly, that the hurricane season is coming.  The question is... are you guys prepared?  Is your 72 hr kits ready?!! Just to remind you.

Before you go to Harris Teeter today....

Hi everyone,

I know that Harris Teeter has the double coupons up to $1.98 for this week.  I just want to say that I'm not going there today.  I bet your asking "why are you gonna miss this sale with the coupons?"  Well, if you must know prices at that store is too expensive! They do those promotions to entice you to do your groceries.  I don't know about the others but if you want proof, go to http://www.couponmom.com/ and check the pricelist Harris Teeter.  It would work for some items, but their only 20% to 60% off the regular price.  That is not something I would go "gaga" for. So everyone please be careful.

I would ask you if you could compute your groceries less the coupons (that is up to $1.98) and see if you would spend it there..... I know I wouldn't.  Just a thought!

I want to organize my coupon blog. I will post them in 3 parts. 1. Coupon 101, 2. Shopping reviews, and 3. Stories to share.

1. Coupon 101

This will be a post about tips is using your coupon wisely. It will help shoppers sources to find coupons, How doubling and tripling works, What are the store rules for coupons and How to store them.

2. Shopping reviews

This post will be about my shopping experience (good or bad), from the stores I usually go to everyweek. Kroger is always on the top of my list, next is Walgreens for my toiletress, and the others either Walmart, Farmfresh, or Harris Teeter. So the stores need to be aware of their sales and their service, I'm keeping an eye on you guys!

3. Stories to share

This post will be about me and my family. Exciting, funny, sad, and other unforgettable moments I surely don't want to forget. Hopefully, It is something entertaining to blog about without being to personal.

So there you have it!. My blogs divided in 3 parts. I will be posting more coupon 101 than anything else since I blog for people who needs my help about using coupons. I am here to save the day or ... week, kinda like the weekly ad, you ... get the idea! (lol)
