WHY I COUPON & STOCKPILE

Coupons and Stockpiles go hand in hand.

A good coupon-er always  buys more than they will need, this will be the start of a stockpile for your family.

Please buy what your family uses. Then when the 85 inches of snow falls on your town you will look in your pantry, a smile will come across your lips, because you won't need to go out and fight for water, milk eggs  and bread. 

EAT WHAT YOU STORE, STORE WHAT YOU EAT.

IN AN EMERGENCY  2 IS ONE AND ONE IS NONE

A well stocked pantry can be a stress relief when faced with an emergency.

                                                       December is almost here.

I wish we would get a little snow this year.

Living in the South, I don't see scenes like this often.

What's the weather like for you?

KROGER I MISS MY DOUBLE COUPONS

Am I the only one who feels Kroger let us down, When they stopped doubling coupons? Did they not say their prices would be lower?
 Okay so when do the lower prices start?
I shopped with Kroger every week for 35 years. Now sad to say, I pick up prescriptions there. And every once in a while I might pick up something if I have a great coupon and they have a great sale. Not to many great sales of late.
 So now I heart Publix.
 Kroger why do you forsake all your Crazy coupon ladies?

TRANSACTION 1 AT RITE AID 3/2/14

 This is my 1st transaction this week. I am starting the week with $9.00 in rewards

and 3 $5.00 dollar off 3 coupons for I will buy nine of these which will make my $30.00 if you buy $30.00 you get $10.00 back in rewards. I will pay $6.00 out of pocket and get $10.00 back in Rewards. Money maker I will use the $10.00 dollar reward tomorrow, on transaction 2. You always want to get rewards back on everything you purchase.

Transaction 2: I picked up 2 more Altoids, 5 Olay Body washes, 2 Granier Fructis shampoos and 2 6 packs of Mott's Applesauce. Went into this deal  with $12.00 in UPS left from my trip yesterday. I applied coupons in the amount of $7.10. The retail on these items before sale and coupons came to $47.10, My out of pocket was $22.09. The best part is I came home with $13.00 in UPS to use tomorrow, on transaction 3. In the past 2 days I have saved 44.49 off the items I purchased. And don't forget I Still have $13.00 in UPS to use on transaction 3.
It is important to learn to roll your UPS from one deal to the next, look for things you have coupons for that will give you back more UPS. Yes it does take a little time to save-a-dime.
If you coupon and are reading  this blog I would love to hear about your

best deal. Leave me a comment and happy shopping.
