Local-Payless Shoes

Hey, I just wanted to give you all a heads up that I was in at Payless on Sprague (in the valley) this morning and the gal in there is offering up a $3 coupon TODAY ONLY to be used on ANYTHING!!! I was able to get a pair of shoes/sandles for Blakey that were normally $19.99 on clearance for $10, then with the coupon made them $7!!!

Good luck!

Heads up for Capri Sun at Safeway

I was in there yesterday buying some Capri Sun with the $1/3 coupon (NLA) that I printed. Well, I discovered that my Safeway had pealies attached to the boxes for Save $1 when you buy 1 Roarin' Waters and 2 Capri Sun. That's just the same as the $1/3 that is NLA! The only difference is that you need to buy 1 of the Roarin' Waters Capri Sun.

Just remember to play nice and not take the pealies off of the items you are not purchasing. :)

Anyway, good luck!

Heads up for Rite Aid

Just a quick heads up. If you are looking to roll some rewards at Rite Aid this week (TODAY), they have the little boxes (I think 4-ct) of Whitman's Chocolates (regular and sugar-free), Russell Stover on sale for 2 for $3. Then, you get a $1 +UP FOR EACH ONE!

The real awesome thing is depending on what your discount is, your discount comes off too! As far as know, there are no limits. I could be wrong. Let's just say......I bought quite a few (there were still plenty on the shelf) and ALL of my Ups printed.

So, you can do this.....

Whitman's Chocolates $1.50 X2
-discount (mine is 20%)
=As low as $1.27
Plus, get back (2) $1 +UP Rewards, making mine ONLY $0.27!

This really isn't too bad if you need to roll some Ups!

Thanks!

Thanks Mavin of Savin'!

PS-This IS a different link from the other day. So, if you printed the coupon the other day for $1/3, you will be able to print this one too. :)

Today, is one of those days where I have  TON of work (yay), so I need to put my focus on my work. I have not shared with you that I am taking a vacation at the end of the month and since I don't get vacation pay (as I work for myself), I have to make up that income that I will be losing at the end of the month. 

Anyway, I apologize, but I need to do this. I will try to get here just as soon as I can.

I hope you all had a GREAT weekend and have a GREAT Monday. Don't forget to get your FREE slurpie today! ☺

Walmart Run

So, I packed the kiddos up this morning and we headed for Walmart and found a TON of goodies (maybe too many), but it was fun. Then, I "bribed" them and told them that if they were good that we would go somewhere "special" for lunch. So, needless to say they were VERY good. Here's what we picked up. We were in need of frozen treats. I love to have these on-hand during summer months for my little peeps. Now, they think I'm the GREATEST which, of course, I LOVE and makes my head swell. ;)

And, yes that is KFC (or KFG as it says on the cup?) you see in the background. That was their "special" lunch as I had the coupon for B1G1 free two-piece meal. The two younger ones had never been there before and I heard they had baked chicken, so that was their special treat. They were tickled, and I figured it out and it only cost me $1.67 per child for lunch. ☺I must say I felt like I was a "dirty" girl for walking into that place; nothing against it. It's just that it has been 2 1/2 years since placing my foot in the doors of a fast food joint. I still did not get anything for myself, so I did good, but I feel kinda guilty.

Verdict-My boys will eat ANYTHING! Faith, "I don't like this chicken. It's disgusting."
