Ok. So I never claimed to be on top of my game when it comes to this whole blog thing. I have had a ton of people texting me this week asking if I have found any good deals. Honestly I haven't even opened a coupon insert or looked at ad's this week. My husband has been working out of town for the past two weeks and I go full force from the time my feet hit the floor in the am until I lay down at night. I have some upcoming events with my church that I have been consumed with as well. So, couponing hasn't been at the top of my priority list. With that being said, I am happy to help and give any suggestions so keep the questions coming. I don't mind. The key to getting good deals is knowing what a good deal is and becoming familiar with what items cost. I have a few friends who couldn't tell you how much a 4 pack of toilet paper costs or how much a stick of deodorant is. THIS BAFFLES ME!! I have heard numerous times them saying, "Well if I need it, I just through it in the cart. I don't pay attention to the price." In the words of one of my favorite little ladies....M.O.G!!! How can you not pay attention to the price? I save well over 10.00 almost every time I go to Wal Mart just by price matching alone. So get familiar with those prices! Don't just look at the sale ad...Look at the prices at the store you shop at. PAY ATTENTION!! And did I mention that one of those friends that used to not pay attention is now couponing with the best of us. I'm such a proud teacher!!
Now...to my next pet peeve. I have had people ask "Don't you feel bad about price matching?" My answer is simply..."NOPE." Why would I feel bad? It's the store's policy. That's how they get people to shop at their store. Or at least people like me. At the Wal Mart I shop at I have a Kroger, Rite Aid and Walgreens all within a mile so driving from store to store is not that big of a deal. However, its about convenience. I would rather go into Wal Mart with my ad's and make 1 stop for everything. And that's why they do that. I meant to take a picture at my last coupon class to post. We had a house full!! I was so impressed by everyone who was eager to learn and share tips.

What's on sale this week?
Ok guys. I figured I would post most of my couponing stuff on here instead of my FB because it is a little easier. I will try to do this every sunday since new ad's come out on Sunday. I haven't had a chance to go through my redplum or smart source or look online for coupons for these first set of items. These are just things that are on a good sale. So let's go!
Deals and Steals.
Kool-Aid and Country Time Lemonade Mix 6-8 quart. Is on sale for 1.00. Usually 2.50- I just started buying these for my kids using half of the recommended amount for a gallon. It's plenty sweet enough and lasts much longer than juice and has less sugar!
Barilla Pasta is on sale for 1.00 as well. This is usually about 1.30. Some may say it's only. 30 cents but this is when I usually stock up on my pasta.
Milk is 2.49 at Walgreen this week. By the time I go to Bowling Green they are usually out so I just price match at Wal Mart. Best deal in town if you have kids in the house.
Pillsbury Grands Jr. 10 Count Cinnamon Rolls or Crescent Rolls and 4-5ct biscuits. I stock up on these when they are this price!
Freschetta Pizza's are 3.99. These are usually closer to 5.00 You can find coupons for these on their Facebook page or online for 1.00 making them quite a steal!
Blue Belle Ice Cream is 4.49 at Walgreens. Blue Belle is usually around 6.49. If you go online to their website and sign up for their email they will send you a 1.00 of coupon. 3.50 for this ice cream is such a good deal! This is for all of my prego friends :)
These are just a few items that I found while browsing through the sale ad's this afternoon. If it isn't otherwise specified then the items on sale are found at Kroger. On another note, I have my second couponing class this Friday. I am excited and nervous at the same time. We had a great turnout at our last one and the ladies have been texting me telling me about all of their great buys. :) I'm like a proud momma!
