I love my mailman today.......

Okay, so after having a morning of major chaos, my mailman came to my door today and MADE MY DAY! Maybe he didn't make my day, but really helped to perk me up.:) I opened everything up and could barely contain myself (yeah, I get excited really easy). Tried to take a picture with really shakey hands because I was so excited to share with you all of what I got in the mail today.......

Okay, so I got the coffee "sample" from Green Mountain Coffee from their Facebook page. Look at the mug I got too! The toothpaste sample, I got from Walmart as with the Playtex sample. The Vaseline lotion sample I got from Sam's Club. This one, you didn't have to be a member to get the sample, which is a good thing because we don't have a Sam's Club in our city. :( But, not only that, look at all those coupons I got too!

This is why I post samples and why I send for them. It really does add up and like I said before, I just put it in my little box. I will have to take a picture of that some day and show you what I mean. Then, we just have it for when we need something small. These samples sizes are REALLY nice to have on hand.

Just another thing I wanted to share with you all.....

Thanks!

Ohhhh, what to do with myself.....?

I just think the above picture is sooo funny! I really needed that little laugh it provided me. :)

I was in a huge panic because I needed to announce a winner today? Why? I have NO clue! (he, he) Upon looking at things again, I realized TODAY IS NOT THURSDAY, but it IS Wednesday. I guess that is the kind of stuff that happens when you get "stressed out." Okay, so REALLY I am not going to announce a winner until tomorrow, because the giveaway is STILL OPEN. :)

So sorry about the confusion.

Wake-up! :)

I need some more coffee.....

Houston We Have A Problem....

MY INTERNET HAS BEEN DOWN!!!! :) I know I said I was going to announce a winner this morning. I still will, but please be patient with me. I have to finish getting my daughter ready for school. She has late start today, and then I will announce a winner when I get back. I just spent THREE hours on the phone with tech support! I am relieved, but still irritated, and a bit overwhelmed as this kind of stuff ALWAYS happens on the days that I am SWAMPED with work. Why?

Okay, I will be back.

Thanks!

I almost forgot......

Well, I did forget. I know that it is not Monday, but how 'bout a Tuesday weigh-in report? Well, ready for my excuses. :( I really did not do that hot, but I am happy with how I did. Let me tell you why, k? I had a loss! Now, it wasn't a big loss, but it was a loss and NOT a gain. As I told Angie (hey Angie), my lucky weigher, I am having a REALLY hard time eating "good" things on-the-go. Now, I am NOT new to this plan at all, though I don't claim to know EVERYTHING about this plan as it ALWAYS kick me in the butt, but I know better. My life has been sooooooo crazy busy (I am REALLY not used to being this busy) that I REALLY do have to eat on the go. Well, I "try" to stick to wholesome/"filling" foods and that is really hard when you are on-the-go. I don't even sit down to eat during the day (bad). I either eat while working or take a bit or two on the way to the shower (bad). Usually, once out of the shower, I am getting make-up on, doing my hair, and getting dressed, and OUT THE DOOR we go to here and there. For someone who works from home, I am not home very much, which I am thinking is going to have to change pretty soon, especially once the snow flies. So, I am struggling a bit here. I am a "routine" person and I like my "routines," so this whole being out of routine is not working really well for me, though I have no choice. Any advice? I REALLY need help.

I think I just need to plan out ahead of time (I am not a planner in most cases) and get my foods ready ahead of time. I dunno.

Okay, so on a good note, I DID "RUN" on my treadmill four times last week! I broke it up like I said I would and I did it! See, I told you all about it and kept my word! :) Yay! Soooooo, guess what? I'm gonna do it AGAIN! Four times AGAIN this week! So far, I have one day down. Today will be day two and then I will take a break tomorrow, then run again Thursday and Friday. Although, I am not sure that I will be able to keep my word for Thursday as we have a lot going on on Thursday, so I "might" not take a break tomorrow. I dunno, we'll see. What I do know is that I am going to commit to "running" four times this week though.

Oh, so you ask how much I lost? Well, it was 0.2 pounds. See, I told you it wasn't that much, but it was a loss, right?

Okay, we have no bake sales to be baking for this week, but we have the carnival and Halloween is on Sunday. I think I will do okay. I will just have a Fiber One bar with me (my rescue food because it tastes just like a candybar) or something like that.

I LOVE Fiber One Bars. Have you tried them? For the "normal" sized bars, chocolate or caramel, they are ONLY two points!

Okay, so, now that I am running late again, I am going to "run" on my treadmill. Sooooo, off to my treadmill.......

Thanks!

*Recall* Halloween Candy

There has been a Halloween candy recall....

It looks like certain lots of Mega Pops lollipops are being recalled because the candy may contain "minute traces" of stainless steel.

A consumer complaint prompted North Carolina Department of Agriculture inspectors to test samples of the candy imported from Colombia, and that state agency found metal fibers and flakes in the candy and issued a consumer warning.

Columbina said that they while believe there is no health risk, they still urged customers to return any bag of Mega Pops, REGARDLESS of the lot number, to the store where it was purchasedfor either a refund or store credit.
It looks like the recalled lots of Mega Pops is about 90,000 bags in-total. They were distrubuted nationwide at several retailers and wholesalers.
The RECALLED LOTS are:  Watermelon, cherry, orange and grape-flavored lollipops in 14-ounce and 28-ounce cellophane bags with the UPC code numbers of either 0 14272 10873 9 or 0 14272 10862 3. The lot numbers of 1240695, 1209708, or 1209796 can be found in a white square on the back of the bag in the lower left side.

They have setup a 24-hour hotline to answer ANY questions consumers may have. The number is.... (888) 317-3686.

You can go over here for more info.

Thanks!

Rite Aid Shop

I had sooooo much fun at Rite Aid today. I was on my way to Weight Watchers this morning and I thought I would stop by to see what I could score "real quick." Well, needless to say I was a bit late for my WW meeting this morning. Well, I had to get my shop on right? :) Okay, so I did two separate transactions this morning and I did AWESOME!!!! Then, I went back again after my WW meeting and did another shop. Here they are....

Okay, here is my first transaction......

Okay, here is the deal on this one.

Alka-Seltzer Plus Fast Powder Packs are $5 then you get $2 +UP Reward back. Okay, so this is what I did. Plus, if you buy $30 in select Bayer products you get a $10 +UP Reward back.

Alka-Seltzer Plus $5 X6,  $30
-$3/1 from 10/24 RP X5 (I had six, but forgot to give her one)
-$1/1 VV non-prescription product from Sept. X2
-$1/1 Alka-Seltzer VV from Sept. (NLA) X2
-$5/25

I paid a total of $5 plus tax, which I used a Rite Aid rebate check for, so no money out of my pocket. Plus, I got back one $10 +UP Reward, and six $2 +UP Rewards. I GOT BACK $22 in +UP Rewards! This was a major money make for me! It would have been even more, if I would have remembered to give them my $3 coupon. I might go back tomorrow and see if they will "fix" that for me.

Transaction #2

Here is my next transaction.....


Thanks!

Cheryl

Okay, so then I WENT BACK!! This time I went back after Weight Watchers and with someone I am trying to help learn to coupon (hey Jennifer). We spent a couple hours in Rite Aid! :)

Okay, so this is my third and final transaction today.....  

Okay, here is the breakdown on this one. The deal is you spend $25 on any advertised candy and get $10 in +UP Rewards back.

FYI-The candy was not triggering the $10 +UP Reward, like it is supposed to. The manager helped me and he tried grabbing a couple of different kinds of candy to try and get this triggered, but he was having a difficult time getting it to trigger. He finally found a bag of candy that would trigger it. Hopefully, they will have this figured out pretty soon.

Okay, that is it for my shops. Good luck this week.

Thanks!

Old Navy Sale Today

FYI, just a quick heads up, Old Navy is having a sale today on their Fleece vests. They are only $5 each, for the whole family. My son, Trent, and I headed out this morning and were there at 7 o'clock. I think we got out of there a little after 8. We had a GREAT time! ALL of their clearance was an EXTRA 50% off! I got a really cute tank for myself for $0.98. I got some really cute summer sandals for $3! Even if you don't make it in time to get the fleece vests, it's definitely worth going and checking out the clearance prices. Oh, don't forget to go over here to "dig" up a coupon to take with you. I FORGOT mine.:(

Oh, I almost forgot. They DO NOT have any boy's vests. They didn't get any in. I did do my shop at the vallely location.

Good luck!

Today,

I am soooooo far behind on EVERYTHING. I have a TON of work sitting on my desk to be taken care of and I am still typing my little fingers away. I will do my best to get on here and post, but I really don't see any light at the end of my tunnel today. I still have yet to take a shower! I have to be at my daughter's school around 1 or so, and then from there I have to get my son from his school and take him to volunteer in his old class (different school). Oh, then, my in-laws are coming over for dinner. I have no idea what I'm making! Yikes!

But, for now, I am signing off to take a little time out for myself and "run" on my treadmill for 15 minutes. This will help me, if I do it tonight, hit my goal of running four days this week (although with all of my shopping that I did yesterday, I only walked yesterday BUT I GOT ON :)).

Okay, if I don't chat with you later, have a GREAT weekend and happy shopping.

P.S. Don't forget to enter my giveaway. I ONLY HAVE 8 ENTRIES! Another Yikes! ;)

Thanks!

Fred Meyer Shop

Well, I while I was out and about I also hit up Fred Meyer TWO times. I went this morning and got this.......

I would have spent around $21.66 before sales and coupons. I spent around $3.08 plus tax! Wow! We were in need of some facial tissue!

Right now Fred Meyer has their Seventh Generation products on 50% off, plus there are coupons out there. Go here (you will have to sign up if you haven't already) to get $2/2 and $1/1 Disinfectant wipes or spray. You can print these out two times. Also, while you are in there, make sure you go check out the coupon bin. I found a coupon in there for $1/1 Seventh Generation dish soap.

Also, there are coupons in their little magazine by the natural food section. I cannot remember what it is called, but there are $1/1 Seventh Generation products in there. If you do happen to take a coupon out of the FREE magazine, please take the magazine with you though. I went and grabbed a couple of coupons tonight (yes, I went again because I forgot my Britta coupons this morning) and there were quite a few magazines there, but the majority of the coupons were taken out. I did happen to find a couple that the coupon was still intact.

I almost forgot to mention, their Britta Water Pitchers are on sale from $19.99, down to $4.99! Go here, if you haven't already and print out your coupon for $5/1! This makes them FREE!! You will have to take the pledge though in order to print out your coupon. Christmas is coming. ;) They still had plenty of filters when I was in there this evening.

Oh, by the way, I don't know what is doing it, but I bought both the Seventh Generation tissue X4 and dish soap on both transactions and both times I got a Catalina back for $1/2 Seventh Generation dish soaps! :)

Thanks!

Yoke's Shopping Trip Today

Okay, I shared with you all a little earlier, when I got home the first time, about Yoke's going out of business sale. Wow! WE HAD SOOOO MUCH FUN! Look at what we got.......

This would have been $261.86! BUTTTTT, with all of my savings and my coupons this only cost me $64.03! Yep, I even bought that dog crate for 50% off! That little dog crate only ended up being $11.99! I used coupons for pretty much EVERYTHING, except for the dog crate, dog dishes, and candy thermometer (I have always wanted one of these).

Here are a few prices that I remember......

Use the B1G1 Free for the Snickers. They were only $0.39 each before coupon.
Smarts Ones were only $1.49 each. Use the coupon for $5/5 from the Safeway coupon book.
Tide Booster was $2.29. Use the $3/1 from recent P&G (it might have been last month's P&G)
Fiesta Seasoning was only $0.67!
Crystal Light was $1.79. There was a printable out there that I had that expired today!
Cheer laundry soap was $2.94. Use the $2/1 from recent insert (I can't remember which one), makes it only $0.94!
Blue Diamond Almonds were $0.50. I'm not sure it will work, but there was a coupon in a recent add for $1/2.
If you have Mentos coupons, Tic-Tac, or event the Trident ($1/3), these would make for FREE!

Oh, Scrubbing Bubbles the spray shower cleaner was only $1.50 after the $3 coupon from recent insert or there is a printable out there somewhere too! :)

Okay, now I have NO room in my freezer for ANYTHING else.

Just a side note, I am very very pleased to hear that Yoke's is relocating their employes from this store (Sprague and Progress) out to other stores nearby. Yay! Thanks Yoke's! :)
