Kmart double coupons strikes again

Spent a good hour or so at Kmart today finding some good double coupon deals. If you got this weeks paper make sure to use the women's Secret deoderant coupon at Kmart. Also you will notice that the Hormel meals are on sale for $2 and there are some coupons out there that make them free. Oh and you can get a good deal on Suave lotion. All of the coupon amounts I list are the doubled price (times the quantity that I bought).

Natural Savings Blog

Hi Deal Lovin Ladies and Deal Lovin Ladies readers. I have started another blog to correspond with Deal Lovin Ladies. It's called Natural Savings. I'm focusing on couponing, gardening, the outdoors and just trying to live life more naturally...while saving. I would love if you checked it out.

Quaker coupons

Quaker has some good coupons on their site. I hardly ever find coupons for Life cereal, so it was exciting that they have them right now. They also have them for their True Delights and Fiber Bars.

Awesome Progresso Coupon

This $1.10 off One coupon has been reset. Go get yourself some free or nearly free soup.

Good Ideas/Tips for Newbies

I give out the blog address every once in a while. Not sure how many new people check it, but I wanted to let you know about a blog that I came across that gives some good tips for those of you who are just starting. Savings List.

One point that she makes that I agree with is not buying something just because you have the coupon. The rule that my husband and I have is that if the generic is less, then you still buy the generic. We do give ourselves $0.10 or so difference. If we really like the name brand and the generic is $0.10 less, then we will still get the name brand.

It's true

Kmart will be doubling coupons this upcoming week.
They informed me that they will only accept coupons that have up to a $1 face value and you can only use 25 coupons per person per day.
Happy shopping!

KMart doubles again!

Rumor is that the next Kmart double coupon event will be January 4-9. The downer though is that you can only double coupons that have a face value up to $1 instead of $2 like before. Sadness. I have noticed that Kmart tends to have higher prices so I don't know if I will be participating.

more CVS coming to iowa??

I was just in our Principal Pharmacy, which is a CVS talking about have my prescriptions mailed as opposed to picking them up on site. He was telling me how much I can save (50%!!!) and then mentioned that it will be even better when Iowa gets more CVS pharmacies.

Yes that's right! It sounds like more CVS will be coming to Iowa. I'm not sure when, but he assured me that it was happening.

Be sure to pick these up at Hy-Vee this week - they are on sale for $1, use this coupon and get them for free! Yay for free food!

The cookies I bought will keep in the freezer for 2 months so there is no rush to eat them just b/c they are Halloween cookies.

Buying holiday items after the holiday is over is something I really enjoy and it's a super way to save loads of money.

Good Blog

I kind of forgot about this blog Budget Help$ and then happened upon it last night. That's where I found the Kashi coupon. There is also a $1 off and 2 Nabisco crackers coupon among other deals. Check it out.

Kashi Cereal Bars

Just found this coupon for $2.00 off Kashi soft baked cereal bars. Not sure how much the bars are, but $2.00 off one box is a pretty great coupon.

Grocery finds this week

I found a couple of good deals when grocery shopping this week.

Target:

TGI Fridays frozen snacks - on sale for $1.84. There is a $3 off coupon (scroll down the page to the "t" section). Make $1.16!!

Lipton Tea - various ones on sale. I got the Lipton to Go. It was on sale for $2.00. There was a $0.60 off coupon from the paper and combine this with $1.00 off Target coupon. There are other teas that are less than $2.00 so you could potentially get it for free.

Ocean Spray CranEnergy - on sale for $2.50 for either a 4-pack or a large bottle. There were $1.00 off coupons that could be printed awhile ago. I don't think they're available anymore, but if you got them back when, then you're good to go. Pretty cheap energy drink.

Walmart:

Hunt's tomato sauce - on sale for $0.36 for the small cans. Use this $1.00 off 2 coupon to make a little bit of money. (I have a fear that this may not be a coupon that is printable anymore, so you will only be in luck if you printed this one previously.)

Ortega taco seasoning - costs $0.58 per packet. There was a $0.75 off coupon in the paper a little while ago and I believe it is getting close to expiring. This would give you both seasoning packets for $0.41. Not too shabby.

Kmart double coupon week

Okay Iowa ladies, most of you know that our Kmarts are not doubling coupons this week like many other Kmarts in the nation. We (central Iowans) may be in luck though. According to the Kmart on University Ave. in WDM we should still be able to get double coupons this week. My advice would be the following:

1. Print off this page of the Kmart circular from Joliet, IL
2. Print off the email I received from the WDM Kmart's store manager stating that they would honor the deal/advertisement.

If you would like me to forward you the email from the store manager just email me or leave a comment on this blog.

Weekend Deals

Did a little shopping this weekend. Stopped at Hy-Vee and picked up some more cereal. I was able to get 7 boxes of cereal for slightly under $7! You can find $1 coupons for Kellogg's cereal at the Slick Deals site listed over in the side bar.

Also made a spur of the moment stop at Walgreens and picked up some razors, used the $3 coupon in the Nov. easy saver catalog + a $2 coupon I had so the razors only cost me $.99! Also picked up some air fresheners with 2 B1G1 coupons = free! And not pictured in the candy bar I picked up b/c I had the munchies. Got out of there for about $2.

Kellogg's Cereal for $1

HyVee is having a sale on Kellogg's cereals. They're $2 a box. There are mutiple coupons on sites like coupons.com and couponbug.com (link on sidebar) that have $1 off any Kellogg's cereal. I haven't gone yet, but it should be a good deal. I'm heading there tonight.
