Saving Money at Ikea

FREE BREAKFAST AGAIN!!!!! FREE BREAKFAST AGAIN!!!!!

Well, apparently Ikea decided you all have been good and wanted to give you another $.99 discount! I received this e-mail from them (yeah, from Ikea, not sure how I got on that list, they actually said something about my last post, weird) and wanted to share the info with you. You can get your free breakfast this Friday, Saturday and Sunday until 10:30. Ironically, last time they did this I was in Indiana with my parents, this time I'm in Ohio with my in-laws. I guess I'm doomed to not receive free food from Ikea. Someone enjoy it for me!

Happy Savings!

Saving Money at Kroger and Meijer

Oh have I found some deals for you! I'm feeling the love from Kroger this week. I don't know how I have missed these deals, but now that I know about them, I'm stocking up! There are 2 deals that are worth making the trip, but make them in this order:

1. Glade PlugIns Scented Gel Warmer are $1.87. When you buy 1 you get a Catalina for $2 off your next order. Umm, did I just make $.13? Why yes, I did. Wanna make more? Use the B1G1 free coupon from this pasts weeks SmartSource insert or the printable here to pay $1.87 for 2 PlugIns and get $4 off your next order. Umm, yeah, sounds like a plan to me. Now use the Catalinas you just got to buy
2. Old El Paso. Like Tacos? Old El Paso is part of Kroger's "Buy 15 get $3 off your order" deal this week. Taco shells are 10/$10 and many shells have peelies on them to get a seasoning packet free when you buy any 2 Old El Paso products. So, buy 10 packs of taco shells and 5 packs of seasoning and use 5 peelie stickers to get the seasoning free, PLUS you get $3 off your order. Grand total: $7 Use the cats you just got from your PlugIns and the total just keeps going down!

Meijer is making me kinda happy this week. Not as happy as they have recently been making me, but I love free, so they are doing okay. You need to get the Buy any 3 Johnson's Products coupon that has the word Buddies on it. You go to Meijer, buy 3 Johnson's Buddies Bars of soap for $.99 each and use the coupon to get them free. A Catalina will print out for the exact same coupon you just used. Keep going until they run out of soap or you think you have enough stock. My kids can't use it but my husband and I love this stuff. It's the soap that has the "wash cloth" cover on it and it smells like watermelon.

Seen any deals I've missed? Please let me know. I'm always on the lookout for new deals!

Saving Sanity with Electricity

Guess who's power was out for 28 hours? That's right, it was me! Oh boy, try explaining to a 3 year old that the lights are broken, the TV is broken, the toaster is broken and the list goes on and on. He was a trooper though. He did a great job and we were very proud of him. He was very excited when he came in the house and saw lights on. He was bouncing around saying "They fixed it, Mommy! They fixed it!" School was canceled today and Rob had no power at work so he stayed home. That makes it 4 days in a row he's been home (he had to take off last Friday because I was too sick to function). We had a wonderful time playing with the neighbors, grilling out and potty training by flashlight.

Did I mention we started potty training on Saturday? THAT was fun done by flashlight. Only 2 accidents so far, so he's doing much better than we anticipated. He wears "big boy underwear" during the day and pull-ups at nap-time and bedtime. He's an all or nothing kind of kid, so Rob and Drew spent about an hour in the bathroom watching a DVD, eating snacks and drinking water on Saturday until he went potty. Once he did it, he was good to go, at least so far. We'll see how he does at school. He will definitely be in pull-ups for that because of the bus ride. I don't think the transportation department would be very happy with me if he had an accident on the bus!

Well, just wanted to update you all about what was going on in our lives this weekend. Hopefully I can find some new deals to entice me to go to the store tomorrow, but I don't know if I'll be able to tear myself away from the powerful feeling I get when I flip a switch and turn on the lights. God must have thought it was pretty cool when He said "Let there be light" and I now, in some small way, feel just as pleased as He did that very first time.

Happy Savings!

Saving Money at Walgreens

Apparently Walgreens decided that they REALLY wanted to give stuff away this weekend! I just checked my e-mail to find a $10/$40 coupon! You can get it here. The coupon is only valid on Friday the 12th and Saturday the 13th. Your total must be $40 AFTER coupons and discounts so this really is the best time to see if you can grab some of the September FAR items.

Happy Savings!
