Cool blog I stumbled upon!

I found this blog a few weeks ago and saw some neat things to help kids learn to tie their shoes.
www.gograhamgo.com

I visited again today and she is having a GREAT giveaway for Crayola items.
Check out her blog and also visit www.crayola.com for some great Easter basket ideas!
She is having a great Crayola giveaway too!
follow the instructions on her site to enter. (which is why i am posting this also)

What kid doesnt love art supplies or even a new box of crayons?!?
There are also some printable pages that would be fun to add or to use before Easter!

Enjoy!

Target deals I got this week

Here is my super shopping trip to target this week. I was VERY proud of my deals. :)

First I filled a Rx for my DH and I had a coupon for a $10 gift card when you transfer a Rx.

-Flat Earth chips 2.69 - $1 manu printable at http://www.smartsource.com/ and - $1 printable target found at the target site http://sites.target.com/site/en/supertarget/page.jsp?title=coupons_specials = 69c!!!

-Plus another bag that was a larger size "limited time package" and was marked down to $1.66 - both coupons = FREE!

-3 pouches of Starkist tuna on sale for $1 each - $1 coupon each from the http://www.vocalpoint.com/ mailer( go join!) = FREE

- 2 trial size kids colgate 50c each - (2) 75c off any kids colgate = FREE

- 2 trial size huggies wipes 99c - $1 off any huggies bath/body item each = FREE

-3 packages of goldfish crackers $1.79 each - target printable $1 each(see above) = 79c each
- 1 box Pepperidge farms pretzel crisps $3.29 - manu coupon i found at kroger Buy 3 goldfish and 1 Pepp. farm crackers save $1.50 - $1 target coupon = 79c

- 2 Crest smiley Grip toothpaste/toothbrush combos ( found in trial size aisle) 99c each - 1 manu coupon from the P&G ad buy 1 get 1 kids crest = 99c

-3 pkgs Kotex pantiliners 16 ct (found in trial aisle) 99c each - 2 manu for $1 off any kotex pads and - (1) 75c off any kotex liners = 22c total

Then they had a deal buy 5 Special K items get a $5 gift card back. (cereal wasnt included, which is what i really wanted, but oh well!)
1 bought 5 boxes of 90 calorie bars at $2.79 each = $13.95 - 1 coupon (printable somewhere - if you want it i will find the link just tell me) $3 off 3 Special K items at Target and - $1/2 from a recent newspaper insert. = $9.95

My target price for any granola/snack bars is $1/box but never over $2/box so it comes out okay. especially after the gift card!

Plus I bougth 3 pinwheels LOL at $1 each. Special treat for the kids :)


All of this should have been $4.67 after my $10 rx gift card but i didnt realize til i got home that three $1 coupons were missed! GRRR!! so i paid $7.67 - still not bad.

I called the store and they said to bring in my receipt and they'd pull the coupons from the drawer and match them up. uhm, i dont think so!!



I also found some multivitamins, vitamin c and omega 3 gummies i wanted for the kids on clearance at $2.50 ish per bottle. What a deal! They were the no artificial sweeteners/no dye/no preservatives/all natural blah blah... I was so excited!
I paid for them in a separate transaction so I used the $5 card from the Special K deal! yay!
6 bottles of vitamins for about $10. woo hoo!


hope you all have had some great savings this week!

I have yet to finish the CVS and WalGreens monthyl (sick kids) but hope to do that tonight and tomorrow if i can find them in stock!

Sorry it has been so long....

I know it has been a long time... I am so sorry!

I am not gonna give you all the excuses, I am just going to say, let's start again!


So, for now I want to remind you that tomorrow is the LAST day to get the monthly WalGreens rebates and the monthly extracare items from CVS. If you need to know what those are, check it out at www.moneysavingmom.com - you might have to scroll through a few pages. If you cant find it, let me know and i will fill you in.

Also, if you follow my blog, PLEASE let me know once in awhile. That way I will keep up with it since I know someone is using it!
