Free Chips Ahoy

Saw this in the USA Weekend, today. It is a one day offer on the first Monday of every month, starting tomorrow while supplies last.  500,000 coupons is March's maximum, limit one per household.  "Consumer must buys 1 package of Nabisco Cookies and 1 gallon of milk to get their second purchase of cookies free. I just read this, so I guess it is more of a BOGO.  Complete details at Facebook.com/NabiscoCookies

Giant Eagle~Coupons~Scenarios

Update per Cherry Picker: Tombstone does indeed qualify for two separate catalina deals. One I already posted the other is receive $4 oyno wyb $15 of selected products.  So that means when you buy 6 pizzas you will get back 2 $4 oyno and 1 $4 oyno !  Also coupons for $1.50/3  are printing!

Scenarios are up!


Today I will be working on the scenarios, but in the meantime I thought I'd post coupons that you may want to gather for this week's ad.

Mineral Mania Monday

LaurEss is still having a 50% off clearance sale on shadows and blush; along with their 20% off full size powder products.

My Escape shadow arrived and I'm in love again. Barely isn't quite the highlight for which I'm looking. It is slightly darker than my skin and matte. I somehow missed it was a matte and a little pearl to the finish suits me better.  Then there was the surprise sample of Jaded which is very pretty, but I need another green to go with it.

Here is how it arrived: DSCN0294 by you.


Pure Anada is having a contest. I have not tried this line.

Giant Eagle 2/18-2/24

 http://thm-a01.yimg.com/nimage/bcf491da5daa6bb8
Another ad another dull week for scenarios. There are some nice sales, but quite straight forward.  I will share a couple scenarios that might be good for your family.  There's the cereal deal that seems popular so I will post that one and maybe the coffee deal is good too.  It's not spectacular for the occasional coffee buyer, but it might be very good for coffee drinkers.  Okay, I'll stop rambling now and give you links and deals.

Win a Coupon Binder!

Save at Home Mommy is having this giveaway for her 1st year anniversary.  Several ways to enter, one being as simple as picking the color you'd like to win.  The binder looks great and I love that it zips close, has a place for store cards, scissors, and other great features.

Drugstore Digest 2/14-2/20

It's that time again where I share links to bloggers that have taken the pain out of teaming up coupons and the sales and going a step farther by helping you create wonderful scenarios.  Since I've only mentioned this once so far, I wanted to remind you if you use the Ctrl key at the same time as clicking on the link a new page will/ window will appear and you won't have to back click as much.

http://ww1.prweb.com/prfiles/2008/07/18/603034/gI_0_cvspharmacy.jpg
For CVS this week I'm just going to list one. I've looked at a couple of others, but Southern Savers did such a fabulous job I think you'll find everything for what you're looking:


http://thm-a01.yimg.com/nimage/6b01cae86104f148
I would like to add a deal I haven't seen mentioned anywhere so far and the is Hershey BOGO $.01 along with the BOGO Coupon from 01-10-10 SS .  You will want to make sure to fill in the amount first or make sure they fill in the coupon with the regular price so you are buying the $.01 bar and the coupon is paying for the up to $.85 bar.

LaurEss Sale! Mineral Make Up at Its Best!


http://lauress.com/images/photos/ClearanceSale.jpg
LaurEss Cosmetics©

Blush and Shadow 50% Off full sizes!  I'm so excited and had to control myself because I love LaurEss!  I ordered Escape shadow because my husband took extra notice when I wore it the first time. I also couldn't resist a sample as I'm still trying to find that perfect highlight shadow. My eyes are brownish green hazel, so if yours are too, Escape is a must have.

LaurEss shadows just glide across the lids and have wonderful color payoff which I just love. Extra pride is taken in Lauren work and it shows all the way down to the packing and shipping. If I had an endless supply of money; I'd buy an endless supply of LaurEss.

*All thoughts are my own and I am in no way reimbursed for this review on LaurEss.

Free Excedrin ~$5.99 Value

Select a pain reliever you've used in the last 12 months and receive a coupon in the mail for Free Excedrin!  Be sure not to choose Excedrin or you will not receive the coupon.  I chose Bayer since I have used it within the last 12 months. I'm so glad they didn't ask what my favorite was that I used in the last 12 months because this is my favorite pain reliever for headaches.  I can't wait!

Giant Eagle~ A Great Deal~ No Coupon Needed

Last night I was talking to the one of two ladies in charge of the HBA at Giant Eagle. We discussed the Crest and Scope deal that ended last night and how the snow storm affected ordering and delivery. She was super nice and informative.

During our conversation she mentioned a deal on the Arrid Anti-Perspirant that starts today. I totally missed this which often happens because I don't have concrete ad. :(  I thought this was worthy of mention if you don't already have a stock pile of free or next to free from the Palmolive-Cologate deals of yesteryear. She said they are getting a very large amount and putting it on end caps as well as the normal shelf spot.  So without coupons it's $1 that's right $1 buck for name brand anti-perspirant, no coupon needed!  Normally priced at GE for $2.49. 


Arrid Anti-Perspirant $1

Great Contadina Coupon

 http://thm-a03.yimg.com/nimage/d7fe91132e479ca0
Sarah at the Giant Eagle forum shared using this at GE will score you free sauce at the everyday price!  Thanks Sarah!  Hope you can get a great deal too! I may spend a little out of pocket and get the paste since I like to use it in my meatloaf. The coupon is good for any products 15oz or smaller.  Oh and the print limit is high; I got 10 which will equal 30 cans!  Oh Happy Day!

Contadina $.75/3

Update: A reader emailed me to let me know she could only print 2. The only thing I can come up with is there was an unique identifier connected with my email.  If you don't already receive this newsletter make sure to sign up and see if you can print a few more if needed.

Poll: Only Three Choices This Time

I think I am getting a better idea about my blog appearance and which place is the best or easiest. Currently though, there is not a whole lot of difference between the two because I haven't asked a designer to customize it yet. I did find another template at Wordpress that allows me to change the Header(currently flowers my husband got for me) and the sidebar color (green) and the trim (burgundy). So if you like that layout the most, but not the colors that is easily adaptable and I'll most likely make a separate poll for that in the future.

Drugstore Digest

I decided to link up several of my favorite bloggers' drugstore deals in one spot.  This will give you a variety of formats and some add deals others do not. If there is a store I left out that you would like to see, please just let me know.  If you press the Crtl key when you click the link it will open a new window so you don't have to keep going back.

Shhh, It's a Secret Sale

Mr. Eric Harkreader, customer service, notified me that Rite Aid is having a sale, 25% on All Regular Priced Cosmetics Feb 11-13. It's while supplies lasts and no rainchecks.  It's a secret from the general public until Tuesday. I thought you might want a head start to get your coupons ready. I believe there are some very nice Cover Girl in this Sunday's paper that includes buy "this" get this "free".  Don't forget you can still use a coupon on the buying "this" too.
