Super Double Coupons at Kmart This Week!

Kmart is doubling coupons this week up to $2.00 in value! Check your local flier to see details. Some stores are doubling internet coupons as well so be sure and check with your store! For some deal ideas check here.

For those of you in the Coeur d'Alene area, our Kmart is doubling internet coupons! Yay!

If you are wondering where to get internet coupons, one of my favorite resources is afullcup.com. The have a coupon database where you can type in any product and they will tell you where to find a coupon for it. If it is a printable coupon you can click on it and it will take you to the site where it can be printed. The only downside is that many of the links are no longer valid, so it can take time to find coupons that will print. For me, it is well worth the time it takes!

Please post your deals here. I would love to see how everyone did!

How I Saved $240 in 15 Minutes !!!



Today, I was so inspired by what I was reading about lowering your home bills on one of my favorite blogs (Money Saving Methods), that I decided to quit reading about it and take some action. And boy am I glad I did!!
One of our expenses that drives me absolutely crazy is Dish Network. Don't get me wrong, I love having tv to watch when I want it and they have good service and everything. It's the bill that I hate. I just don't think it's worth $50 a month. But living where we live, satellite tv is our only option if we want anything at all.

So today I called and told them how I felt. I said I loved having the service but would have to switch providers if they could not lower my bill to match the promotional pricing of their competitor. That's all it took!

I get the same service but they lowered my bill by $20 a month for 12 months!! Not only that, but they gave me free HBO and Starz for 3 months just for adding my emaill address to my account!! And then by signing up for Autopay, they gave me Cinemax for one cent a month for 12 months!! One of the best parts is that you can have them schedule your future account change, so that they cancel HBO, Starz, and Cinemax before they start charging full price again.


In 15 minutes on the phone I saved my family $240 for the year! Not bad, if I say so myself.


So tomorrow I'm going to call the phone company to see what they can do. And you can bet that in 12 months when my Dish Network bill goes back up, I'll be calling again to see what kind of deal I can make.

To read more on how you can lower your home bills go to moneysavingmethods.com and click on Getting Started, scroll down until you see the section on family bills. Thanks so much Carrie for the inspiration!

Restaurant.com 80% 0ff through March 15th!

Here it is again !! Thank you to Krystal for letting us know! I'm so excited to share this with all of you because it is an awesome way to save money and still enjoy eating out. I find that for my family we are able to eat at better restaurants and pay the same or less than we would if we were to eat fast food. We love it!! Last time I went through cashbaq.com and got an even better deal because . Because I signed up as a new member (took about 20 seconds) I got a $5 bonus plus I will get 25% cash back on the order I made at restaurant.com. I bought six gift certificates valued at $105.00 total, the restaurant.com price was a total of $39.00. With my 80% coupon code the price I paid came down to $7.80 (that is $31.20 off!!). Then on cashbaq.com, I recieve my $5 bonus and 25% cash back ($1.95). If I count that amount against my restaurant.com purchase that means I paid .85 cents for $105 worth of gift certificates!!Here is how you can do the same thing:

  • On the right side of my blog there is a button for cashbaq.com. Click on that and register to get your $5 bonus. Make sure that you go in to your account and put in your info so that they can mail you your cash back check when your total rewards get to $10.
  • Go back to the home page and click the drop down button to shop by store and scroll down to restaurant.com. When the page comes up click on 80% off any order (not dinner of the month club) Make sure you go through the cashbaq website because this is how they keep track of your % back.
  • Once at restaurant.com, put in your zip code to find restaurants near you. Start adding gift certificates to your cart.
  • To get your 80% off you need to make sure that the coupon code MENU is being used in your cart. If not you need to enter it and click apply to reflect your savings.
  • When you are ready to check out you will have to register and enter billing info.
    Once your order has been placed it will take you through to where you can view and print your certificates!
  • On cashbaq.com they will send you a check when your balance reaches at least $10. There are many other ways to get cash back on your other online purchases at places you may already be buying from so check out the other deals they offer.

Well, that's about it I think. If any one has any questions they can call or email me at penniesinyourpiggy@hotmail.com . I hope that some of you can take advantage of this awesome deal!! Be a good friend and spread the word! This offer is only good until Sunday, March 15th, so be sure and get in on it before you run out of time!
P.S. If you don't want to do the cash back thing you can still get 80% off by applying coupon code MENU to your cart before checking out.

Walgreens Diaper Deal

For those of you who need diapers, this is an incredible opportunity for you to stock up!
At Walgreens right now Huggies Diapers are on sale for $10 and big packs of wipes for $6.
Pair this sale price with these $5/1 and $3/1 coupons from Huggies (you can only print out two of each coupon per a computer, so I go to my husbands office if I need to print more, you could probably even go to the library and use their computers if you need extra coupons). There is also a Walgreens coloring and activity book by the toys that you can purchase for $1. It has a Walgreens coupon for $1/1 Huggies products. The great thing about Walgreens is that on top of the sale price, you can use a manufacturers coupon AND a Walgreens coupon, plus the Walgreens coupon will take $1 off for each item purchased! And the kicker... For each $25 worth of Huggies you buy, you get $10 back in Register Rewards to use on your next purchase! You can use this to buy more diapers and wipes or other things that you need, or you can save it for the next great deal at Walgreens!
Here are some deal scenarios for you:
Yesterday I bought:
3 jumbo packs of Huggies Gentle Care Diapers- $30
- $15 ( 3 $5/1 internet coupons from here)
- $3 (wags coloring book $1/1 coupon)
_________________________________
= $12 out of pocket
+ recieved $10 back in Register Rewards
or you can:
buy 2 jumbo packs of Huggies Natural Fit diapers- $20
+ 1 pack of Gentle Care wipes- $6
- $6 ( 2 $3/1 internet coupons from here)
- $5 ( $5/1 internet coupon from here)
- $3 ( wags coloring book $1/1 coupon)
_________________________________
= $12 out of pocket
+ recieve $10 back in RR
or you can:
buy 2 packs of Huggies Gentle Care Diapers- $20
+ 1 pack of Gentle Care Wipes- $6
- $15 (3 $5/1 internet coupons from here)
- $3 ( wags coloring book $1/1 coupon)
__________________________________
= $8 out of pocket
+ recieve $10 back in RR
A $2 Money Maker!
or you can:
buy 5 packs of Gentle Care wipes- $30
- $25 ( 5 $5/1 internet coupons from here)
- $5 (wags coloring book $1/1 coupon)
__________________________________
= $0 out of pocket
+ recieve $10 in RR
A $10 Money Maker!!

Some things you should know:

You can only get the Register Rewards for this deal once per a transaction, so if you want to do more than one deal, you need to do a separate transaction for each RR you want to recieve.

If you pay for another Huggies transaction with the RR you just recieved, the register will not print you out another RR. However, it should print out a RR for each transaction that you pay for out of pocket. You can save your RRs for a purchasing other items at another time.

At Walgreens you have to have the same amount of items as coupons, so if you are using 3 manufacturers coupons and 1 wags coupon to buy 3 packs of diapers (or whatever) you will need to pick up something else (something you need anyway or an inexpensive item like candy) to offset the 4th coupon.

Also if you ever pay with Register Rewards, they count as a coupon.

I hope some of you can find this useful. Please post your experience with this Walgreens diaper deal. I would love to see how you saved!
