Ok, I tried the Robitussin deal at Walgreens, and it did work for me. I bought 3, used 3 $2 off coupons, and got $15 back. Total haul.. 3 Robitussin, 4 Ramen noodles (fillers), 1 Sunbeam warming throw for my husband for Christmas (don't tell him!), paid $35, got $20 back ($5 back on the throw), and will send for the manufacturer's rebate on the throw. Counting that, the grand total was $10. I am satisfied with that.
I went to Walmart, and there were peelie coupons on Rice Krispies and Cocoa Krispies to get $1 off of marshmallows when you bought one of the cereals. I had $1 off a Kellogg's cereal coupon (printable), making the cereal $1.38, and their marshmallows are $1.08, so I paid 8 cents for the marshmallows. If a coupon is for something ELSE when you buy an item, you almost always can use a coupon for the item you have to buy to get the other...if that makes sense to you.
Not much was new there. I got the $2 Gillette shampoo and bodywash free- those coupons expire Friday. I got the $4.97 Fusion razor (it only has 1 cartridge) for 97 cents with coupon...also expires Friday. I got several 23 cent Green Giant steamers with the $1 coupon, 2 Seapak shrimp poppers for 32 cents each with the $1 coupon (I think they went up a few cents). I got another $5.97 Febreze Noticeables with the $5 coupon, making it 97 cents. That coupon expires Friday as well. I love Walmart.
Food Lion emailed me coupons this week for $1 off of FL shredded cheese, $1 FL Toaster pastries, $2 off a $5 or more purchase from the produce dept., and $1 off 5 Del Monte tomatoes.
Please feel free to email me at dimestretchermom@gmail.com with any questions. Sometimes, it doesn't occur to me to talk about anything unless someone asks.

Tuesday!
I got ANOTHER mailer from Vocalpoint today. This one has a Venus Embrace razor and 5 $4 off coupons. YAY!
There's nothing too exciting that I have found. I did hear that if you buy 3 Robitussin at Walgreens you will get a $10 AND a $5 RR because of overlapping deals. The UPC's of the ones that work are:
300031- all start with this..final digits are: 8616 12 3
8686 12 6
8670 12 5
8685 12 9
8642 12 2
8660 12 6
8667 12 5
8610 12 1
There are coupons at Robitussin.com for $ off. Buy 3, use 3 coupons (you will have to use the drop down menu by your back button to go back) and get $15. This is how it is SUPPOSED to work through Friday, but I can't guarantee it.
Celestial Seasonings will be on sale there, too next week. Free if you have the $1 coupons. Here's the kicker. My local paper didn't have the coupons. (some are regional) I had ONE a friend gave me from her paper about an hour south. I could cry. I could buy them on ebay, but those things are going kinda crazy high! I'm on the fence. We'll see. :(
Have a good night.

Well, I made it!
Made it to Kroger today. I have to admit, I am a bit overwhelmed when standing in front of a tea display. It's kind of hard to decide which kinds to get! BUT, I made it out of there satisfied with the ones I bought.
Starkist tuna was on sale and I had coupons, but the Kroger brand was cheaper, so I bought it. This leads me to another point. Just because you have a coupon, it doesn't mean you have to use it. I go with the cheaper route EVERY TIME. Of course, it could also be that tuna will be cheaper later on, and I will have coupons then. This was plain tuna, not the Starkist creations, which I am totally in love with. I get those from Walmart, though, because they are cheaper there. On things I buy often, I remain aware of which store has them cheaper on a regular basis. If you can't remember, write them down.
I got 2 Herbal Essences free...They are on sale for $2.49, and I bought 2. I used the $2.00 coupon loaded on my card from P&G (go to the Kroger website for the link) and a $3/2 from the most recent P&G insert.
Campbells soup is 10/$10. There are TONS of coupons for those out.
I ended up with about 15 coupons for free worchestershire sauce...I am getting a couple with each shopping trip. I don't really use them often, so I will keep one or 2 and donate the others to food pantries/drives, etc coming up for Christmas.
I got the Mach 3 razors free, too. I had a $3 off coupon they mailed me and a $3 off from the P&G loaded to my card. They are on sale this week for $5.99
Found another place to load coupons to your card: http://www.cellfire.com/ You need to have a cell phone for them to text you the authorization code, but after that, you can do it on computer. One of the loadable coupons is for a free box of Live Active Oatmeal. I got apples, cinnamon, and raisins. *YUM*
Betty Crocker pouch potatoes are $1.09, use the 40 cent coupon to get them for 29 cents each.
So, today I ended up saving 54%. Not as good as usual, but acceptable. I bought some meat, etc.
I got a new mailer from Vocalpoint. If you haven't signed up yet, do. This one has several of the $1 off Starkist tuna creations, and 1 BOGOF coupon for them.
Seapak Shrimp poppers at Walmart are $1.25. You can get $1 off coupons here: http://print.coupons.com/Couponweb/Offers.aspx?pid=13724&nid=20&zid=hd77 You should be able to print it at least twice.

Celestial seasonings
I don't have time for a full blog, but I just noticed Celestial Seasonings tea is 10 for $10 at Kroger this week, so if you have the recent coupons that came out a week or 2 ago, they are FREE!!!!!!!!!
This is a great thing to stock up on and you can even put them in gift baskets for Christmas!
I'll check out more deals and post later tonight or tomorrow. :)

Happy Thursday!
Boy, have we been having a time...my washer broke, my desktop crashed...*whew*
Look here: http://brands.kraftfoods.com/diabetic/main.aspx?s=diabetic&m=main_content for South Beach coupons and, if you or anyone in your household have diabetes, to sign up for the Kraft Good eating, Good living program to get a welcome kit, coupons, recipes, etc. While you are at the Kraft website, sign up for the Food and Family newsletter and magazine. They have great recipes, and often, coupons.
I recommend you purchase (every month :P) The All You magazine at Walmart. The only place you can get it is Walmart or through a subscription. Reason being, it often has a lot of great coupons in it. Sometimes I will actually buy 2 or 3 if the coupons are good enough.
A tip about KMART....scan clearance items you are interested in if your store has scanners around. They are sometimes cheaper than they say on the package. There SHOULD be a date on the price label. If it is recent, it probably won't scan cheaper. If it's a month or so old, it may. I have gotten tons of Christmas presents this way. I got very expensive Sponge Bob lego sets for $3 and they were marked $25. Always scan at Kmart.

*yawn*
Oh, dear Lord, it's been a long day. Just for your amusement....I got up early this morning to get my youngest ready for a field trip...then realized....it's tomorrow. There was no school for him today. DOH!
I dragged the kid to Walgreens, Walmart and Kroger...here's what I found:
The Gillette Fusion (power) gift sets..they have the razor, a shaving cream and a small body wash are included in the $8.99 Fusion sale at Walgreens. I did 2 different orders and used fillers from the clearance. I bought 2, used 2 $4 off coupons and 2 $5 register rewards...add in the clearance candy-- I paid about $3 out of pocket for both orders and got back $8 in register rewards. Now I have gift sets for Christmas.
Walmart had the Air Wick Luminier candles for $6..this is the cheapest I have seen them. There are $3 off coupons out. I have tons of Glade ones, but these are soooo pretty I have been wanting one for a while. It was my indulgence for the day because I forgot (again) to go by Bath and Body Works.
There were $1 off Taco Bell dinner kits peelies on the Taco Bell dinner BOWLS. There were $1 off peelies on some of the HP computer paper.
Kroger had Scotch Brite nail saver sponges on sale for $1, and there were some $1 off peelies..free! I don't know why I bought any because sponges really creep me out, but for free I couldn't NOT. Also found some short-dated Yoplait kids for $1.19..had 50 cent coupons that doubled making them 19 cents each. My kids will drink them right away, so I'm not worried about the date. Always check mark downs like this.
If you have any of the 50 cent Nesquick coupons from a couple of weeks ago, the personal size refrigerated bottles are on sale for $1, so they are free.
Bath and Bodyworks has the anti-bacterial hand soap on sale for $3, limit 10. That's a great deal.
Hope you find some bargains today.
