Just another blog here about saving some cash! Old navy is having a sale today. Go by and check it out! All of their classic flip flops are on sale for a $1 each pair! Isn’t that amazing?! Limit 5 per person per transaction. I noticed at my local Old Navy that most people were buying 10 to even 40 pair. The cashiers were just ringing up five at a time. So good luck!!! Happy shopping!!! Womans, Mens, Boys, & Girls…all only one dollar!

I previously blogged about the current meal deal that Kroger is having. The one with the fajita meat. I went to check it out today and “load up” on the advertised super buy. They are charging $7.99 per package of fajita meat. It took me a bit to figure out that is really high. I went to Sam’s club today and bought double packs of basically the same meat for $7.48. Actually I paid $7.48 for chicken and $11.48 for beef. But still, $7.48 for over 3lbs. of meat instead of almost $16.
I haven’t had a chance to check the ads yet but I will skim them and my coupons and post some good deals for you hopefully tomorrow!

Albertson’s is currently running a 10 for $10 sale on many of their most popular grocery items. Now remember, you do not have to buy 10 items to get them for $1 each. That is just a creative marketing scheme to make you feel the need to buy more. If you buy 1 item the cost is simply $1. Now, this sale includes:
- totinos pizza rolls
- dozen large eggs
- assorted pillsbury grands products
- half gallon orange juice
- albertson’s brand waffles
- sunny delight
- chef boyarde canned items
- armour lunch makers (like lunchables)
- little debbie products
- suave products
any many more! And if you have a coupon for any of these items the savings is even bigger! Think about it…you have a .35 off coupon. Teqnically that triples making it a $1.05 coupon. Or you have a .50 off coupon…it doubles becoming $1 off. Both of those are scenarios on how to get an item completely for free!!!
If you hit the sale let me know how well you made out! Or if you have any other amazing deals leave me a comment and share the wealth!!!

I am trying to come up with even more ways to save you money. Besides your grocery bill there are many other things that we would all love to save money on!!! Gasoline is my priority today!
Kroger has a program where for every $100 you spend on groceries in a calendar month you save .10/gallon of gas on a fill up. Now if you spend $500+ a month at Kroger you aren’t going to get .50 off per gallon but you will get .10 off per gallon 5 times. Make sence?
And the best part of all is that they count the total before your coupons! For example, my last grocery bill’s subtotal was $219.43 but after coupons I actually paid 108.70. But I earned 219 fuel points!!! Every little bit helps right?
Feel free to post comments about any other way you know to save on gasoline. I know some other stores have some gas saving programs but I am only familiar with Kroger’s.

Aw ebates…what would I do without you? Online stores pay ebates commissions (think of it like a finder’s fee) and they pass on some of the money back to you. Each store pays slightly different commission amounts so the amount you save varies from store to store. The site is very user friendly and tells you the percentage of cash back you will receive next to each of the online stores in their directory. Ebates is great even for the occasional online shopper…if you are making the online purchase anyway…why not begin your journey at ebates???? You can still use your promo codes, coupons, etc. …the only difference? You get a certain percentage cash back and many times have an exclusive coupon code for the purchase you are about to make!
Some of the stores available to shop through ebates include:
- walmart.com
- sears.com
- aeropostale.com
- apple itunes
- babbies r us
- disney shopping.com
- victorias secret
I could go on all day because there are literally hundreds of stores and probably any store you would be making a purchase from is listed you would get 3-10% cash back. This can really add up over time. And to sweeten the deal ebates is currently offering a free $10 gift card to sephora, itunes, or target for all new members!!! How awesome is that?!!!
So sign up for an ebates account today!! Ebates

So I know we have been covering couponing and I promised more info on that but I have decided we are going to take a little break from that. We have already gone over A LOT of information in a very short amount of time and I wanted to let my readers know about a great deal that is going on right now.
If you haven’t discovered shutterfly.com yet it is an excellent website for all of your photo needs. Just check out the site and you will see what I mean. Right now they have a promo going on that if you create a FREE photo sharing site they will give you 30 free 4×6 prints…you simply pay shipping. On top of that, for every week you add pics to your site they will add 10 more free 4×6’s prints. How fabulous is that?! That is a ton of free pics and a great way to share pics of your kids with friends and family. This is the basic email I received explaining the details:
Share your memories, get free prints. This season, get rewarded for sharing. Get 10 free 4×6 prints for every week you add pictures to your Share site. If you also create a new site for your family, friends or activity groups, you’ll get 30 free 4×6 prints.*
This promotion ends February 2, 2009.
Sounds great to me! Needless to say I created my share site today…it took me all of 5 minutes. I did already have a shutterfly account but that too is relatively painless and does not take long to set up. I will start earning free prints and I am all about saving money and great freebies!!!! And I am addicted to photos of my babies! And to sweeten this deal, anytime you place an order for shutterfly go through ebates.com. We haven’t covered ebates yet…..that sounds like a good topic for tomorrows blog. Tune in tomorrow to learn all about ebates if you do not already have an ebates account!
