FYI-Yoke's is going out of business

on Sprague and Progress, out in the valley. To tell you the truth, I thought they were already closed. :( It is really sad. It seems like that store has been there FOREVER and the people have been SOOOOO nice. Anyway, I was driving by this morning, after taking the kiddos to the doctor, and noticed that they are at 50% off today. Well, I went in real quick to see if they even had anything left. I bought a couple packages of plastic spoons, forks, and knives for $0.49. When I was up there, I asked the gentleman if they were taking coupons. He said, "YES!!!" Then, I said, "okay, well then I'll be back later." I had to drop the kids off at school still. So, I rushed and dropped them off and rushed back, grabbed my coupons, and my helper (Blakey) and we went to town!!!!

I just, literally, got home, but wanted to share with you about the 50% off sale. I still have to take a picture of my goodies, put everything away, and feed Blakey lunch. Yep, he is demanding lunch.

I will post a picture later today though.

Anyway, if you happen to be out here in the valley go check them out. Bring your high value laundry coupons with you and bring the $5/5 Smart Ones from your Safeway coupon book.

Okay, gotta go now.

Thanks!

Today

 have to take my kiddos to the doctor, so I am getting ready to sign off the computer for a while. I will "try" to check back later and see what we can come up with. I am also going to try and snag a few deals this morning after dropping them off at school, and I will come back and share with you what is to be had.

Okay, have a great day and happy shopping.

Thanks!

Prescription Coupons

Here is a great site to print out coupons for prescriptions! They have so many coupons on here. You can kinda just look around and see if they have a prescription that you may use or whatnot. Some of these coupons are really high value. If they do not have a prescription coupon for one that you may need, you can input your info, the drug, and the dosage and they will let you know if they come up with something. Wow! Anyway, the site is called YourRxDiscounts.com.

Here are a couple of FAQs from their website....

How do I use this discount?

Click, print, bring, and save.
Just find the discount you want, print it from your computer, bring it to your pharmacy, and present it when you pay for your prescription to save money on the spot.

How does this work? Where do these discounts come from?
All you have to do is show your printout or card to the pharmacist to save. The pharmacist will have the lower price already programmed into his/her computer.
These discounts are from the Pharmacy Discount network (and do not imply the endorsement of independent pharmaceutical manufacturers).

What type of discounts can I expect?

Discounts vary based on the type of prescription, whether the drug is generic, if the pharmaceutical is covered by another discount, and the location of the pharmacy. Discounts can range up to 75%, but the average discount is 28%.

Can I get a discount at MY pharmacy?
Yes, virtually every pharmacy accepts our discounts. If your pharmacist isn't familiar with our prescription drug discounts, please have them call 1-877-513-1935.
Every discount and card is printed with a customer service number in case you run into any difficulties

Do I need to register or pay for this service?
No this is free program. There are no restrictions for pre-existing conditions, no paperwork to fill out -- just print and start to save.
What happens when I use my discount?
When you print a discount or card and bring to your favorite pharmacy, your pharmacy will input your information into his/her computer. Once the information has been stored by the pharmacist, each time you return to the pharmacy you will get a discount.

Can I use this discount with my current insurance towards my deductible?
If you have insurance you should bring both your insurance and pharmacy discount card to your pharmacist and ask which gives you the better discount (please keep in mind that many insurance programs do not cover drugs for which we provide discounts).
If you have a deductable, and our discounts or card reduce the costs of your prescriptions, it will take you longer to reach your full deductable (if you reach it at all). Of course, we suggest you contact your insurance company to get the specifics, because not all insurance plans are the same.

Important Note for Medicare users
Notice to Medicare users: although this discount can be used as a Medicare Part D supplement by covering drugs once participants reach the "donut hole," drugs purchased with this discount program will not count toward your Medicare deductible.

Thanks for sharing Coupon Gal!

Cheryl

Of note, I did try and look around this morning to check on the validity of this program and I could find nothing bad. All I saw were good comments.

Safeway

I went and kind of walked around Safeway today as I did not have my coupons with me, but I still couldn't resist staying out of the store.

Anyway, a couple of things that I saw.

~Oatmeal was 2 for $5. If you printed the $2/1 coupon earlier in the week, this makes for $0.50 a box. I just checked and the coupon is no longer available. There was also a coupon in one of the inserts recently for $1/1.
~Better Oats was on sale for B1G1 Free. Gosh, I cannot remember how much they were, but you can score a coupon over here, if you haven't done so already for $0.75/1.
~Sobe (Regular Sobe and Sobe Lifewater) was 10 for $10, plus you get a $5 Cat back. I just looked for coupons, but could not find any. Anyone, know of any coupons out there?

Those were a just a couple of things that I saw.

Thanks!

New Safeway Coupon Policy

A heads up, Karry over at Happy Money Saver is reporting that Safeway has just released a new coupon policy stating that we CANNOT use a paper coupon and E-coupon on the same item. BUT,.......now they have a new program called....

 JUST FOR U. These Just for U coupons used to be only available to Hawaii residents, but now its available for everyone. Just go over to Safeway.com and look at the top where you can click on a big box inviting you to sign up. Plus you might be even able to score FREE Eggs right now for joining.

FYI, I have been looking all over for the "new" policy, but have yet to find it posted. I am a bit short on time, so I will try to find it a bit later.

Thanks Happy Money Saver!

New Cellfire Coupons

Cellfire has released some new coupons that are waiting to be loaded onto your cards for some GREAT savings. Just go on over here to get them loaded to your cards.

If you have yet to load Cellfire coupons to your Safeway card and want to learn how, I will walk you through some simple steps.

First make sure that you have your Safeway Club Card number handy, as you will need this.
Then, go over here to get started.
You will see the red box to the bottom right that says "Get Cellfire." Click on this box.
Then, it will take you to a page that you need to input your cell number (they don't call your cell), year of birth, zip, and address, and whether you are male or female (not sure why, but that is a question)
Then, you click "Register."
From there (I can't remember), but I'm thinking the next step is to input your club card number and then start saving.

This is a great way to maximize your savings at Safeway.

Thanks!

I thought I would repost this as this deal is still going on. I just went and placed my order last week, as my previous subscription has expired and I wanted to get a good deal on this. I was also able to use some of my Swagbucks to bring the price of this down. Yay!

You can currently snag a subscription, through Amazon, to All You for one year, for $14.95, down from $29.88! Wow! That is GOOOOD! Just go on over here and get your order in.  This magazine will more than pay for itself with all of the coupons that come in it each month as well as all of the different "frugal" tips it has to offer.

Now, this is an auto-renewal price, which means that when your year is up that it will automatially renew your subscription, but no worries. You can always cancel your auto-renewal after you place your order. Just go into your account and click on the “Manage Magazine Subscription” link (located under “Your Orders”). You will then have the option to cancel your automatic renewal. Keep in mind this could take up to 4 hours to show up in your account after ordering.

For those of you that do not know what I am talking about and live in the Spokane area. Our newspaper puts out a "little" paper called The Pinch. It comes on Tuesdays with all of the food ads that are going to be in Wednesday's paper and, of course, the food section. Then, it also comes on Sunday with some extra fliers and some extra coupons too. I HAVE noticed though that you will not find Albertsons "Twice the Value" coupons in The Pinch or even "Smart Source" coupons, but it does come with most of the ads that you would find in the "regluar" Sunday's paper and with the RedPlum coupons!

Well, you can get information on how to get this delivered to your house FOR FREE over here. Here is some of the contact info that you will find on their page.

If the pinch is delivered to your door and you want to continue receiving it, we will keep it coming your way -- automatically, each week, at no charge.

P.O. Box 2160
Spokane, WA 99210-2160
 
It also goes on to say......If you write or e-mail, please be sure to include the address at which you want delivery stopped, along with a way to reach you in order to assure we have met your wishes.

Monday Weigh-In Report

I must admit that I am a bit embarrased to share my weigh-in progress, or lack of. Oh, don't get me wrong I did weigh-in, but it was NOT PRETTY at all! I GAINED 2 POUNDS!! Seriously, what is up with me?! I am getting so frustrated, but it's my own dang fault! I know this, but it just seems that my food addiction is getting the best of me. I dunno. So, anyway, my goals for this week are to run (or what I can running) four times this week. I have been having a really hard time finding 30 minutes a day to do this, so I am going to break it up a bit and run ;) 15 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes in the evening. We'll see how this is going to work for me this week. We do have a birthday in the family that we are going to celebrate tomorrow. Yes, it is our uncle's birthday and he wants to celebrate with going to the buffet. Yikes! But, I will do good there. I CAN control myself at the buffet. I just have to stick to meat and veggies. I have already told myself that I have to behave this week. So, now that I have shared my bump in the road, I am going to go run to a little Lady Gaga. I love her! I really like to listen to "Bad Romance" when I am on the treadmill as it really really. Now, I know this is going to sound stupid, but just bear with me a little.  Yes, I am VERY corny, but it relates to my relationship with food. Just a little tidbit there about me and my "crazy" ways. My husband would definitely agree that I am a bit CraZy!. :)

Okay, so off to the treadmill........

Thanks!

Groupon Deal of The Day for Spokane

Wow, who doesn't just love "frugal" expensive chocolate?! Check out the Groupon Deal of The Day for Spokane......

$6 for $12 Worth of Store-Made Sweets at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory

Here is the tidbid Groupon has about them.....

After tinkering with the time capsule at Mt. Vesuvius, scientific explorers unleashed a flood of chocolate lava stored away by a mischievous child. Savor the fruit of this ancient prank with today's deal: for $6, you get $12 worth of store-made sweets at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. Swing by the shop's Veradale location in the Sullivan Retail Center and bring home a bounty of freshly dipped fruits and more.


Peek across the counter at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory's resident chocolatiers, who massage creamy loafs of chocolate on sturdy marble slabs daily. For additional culinary theatrics, feel free to cheer on the expert orchard orderlies as they dip Granny Smiths into thick, bubbling caramel from a traditional copper kettle. Caramel apples ($3.95–$6.95) range from classically simple to loaded with toppings, accommodating different degrees of decadence more tastefully than a pair of convertible mink pants. If you're in the mood for poppable sweets, snag a pound of chocolate-dipped strawberries ($24.95), or strip away the core and go straight for the score with freshly fangled fudges ($14.95 per pound).
With traditional techniques and old-fashioned flavors, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory provides a wide range of treats for teeth both sweet and savory. In the interest of making the most of your stop through, the shop will happily hand you a sample of fudge. Fly solo and keep the chocolate-treasure haul to yourself, or bring along a flock of Willy Wonka imitators to confuse passersby while consuming the delicious treats.
Wow, they even have caramel apples! I bet the kids would love these!
 
This sounds like a good deal. Just go on over here, if you would like in on the deal. The deal is on!
 
Thanks!

Albertsons

Here are a couple of good deals at Albertsons.

Quaker Oats are on sale this week for $2.50. Use this coupon for $2.50/1 and you can score a box of oatmeal for $0.50! Hurry and print this coupon if want it though, because these tend to go FAST. :)

I don't know about you, but I tend to go through A LOT of chocolate chips during the holidays as I do quite a bit of baking for the holidays (you know gifts-n-stuff). So, Albertsons has their chocolate chips (Nestle) on sale for $1.99 a bag. Go over here and get a coupon for $1/2. Double that coupon and get two bags for $1 each! Not the best price, but better than paying $3 a bag.

Oh, I almost forgot. Albertsons also has Guerrero tortillas, 30 count, on sale for $1.00. Use this coupon for $1/1 and score some FREE corn tortillas!



Thanks to The Coupon Posse' for the heads up on these two coupons!
