iPhone apps

Stop n shop has a free app for your iPhone! This app is amazing. You can see your accrued gas points and when they expire! See their weekly circular and sale items no matter where you are, plus get COUPONS! I'm going to check for others. Keep clipping!!!

Who likes FREE hot dogs?

Kmart has Bar S hot dogs on sale with an in store coupon this week in the flier... With the coupon they're $0.88. Sunday's Cape Cod Times and Boston Globe have a MFC for $0.75 off which Kmart doubles making it free and I believe Kmart gives up to $0.07 back! More good deals to be posted, stay tuned!

Good morning!

It's a beautiful day to find some deals! Let's get clipping today!

Little tricks

Places like Rite Aid & Walgreens have a clearance section where you can get make up & other items for dirt cheap, use your make up coupons to maximize your savings & pay pennies to look like a glam goddess! I paid $0.48 for eyeshadow and $0.12 for nail polish!

Where do you get your coupons?

I find mine in the Sunday papers and some of the fliers. Some stores have their own exclusive coupons which can be combined with other manufacturers coupons. Make sure you know the coupon policy of the store you shop. Some coupons can be doubled or even tripled, good luck.
WHERE HAVE YOU FOUND COUPONS?

Getting you started my way

Things you need:
A 3 ring binder
Baseball card inserts ( I suggest 10 sleeves to start)
Obviously good scissors
Each week get your coupons and cut cut cut!

Now you're probably wondering what the heck you'll be doing with these things. Well the binder has worked well for me to keep all my coupons organized, accessible and visually easy to find.
Once you cut all your coupons, organize them into piles by category. Cleaning products, toiletries, dairy, grocery, deli, personal hygiene...you get the idea. Some people have alphabetized them, that doesn't work well for me. But try and see what will work best for you.
Once you've organized your coupons, slide them into the slots as you wish. You can make your binder decorative if you want & personalize it with you're own touch!
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR...go!

Sunday!

Sunday's coupons are in! I'll be posting some of the good deals I find.
