Blog Questions for You

Update: I've decided to try my hand at creating poll to make it easy for you to share your opinion. The first one is done and then I will add more if this works out well. I'm leaving my questions up below as a guideline for me or if you'd rather share that way. Thank you!

First Poll Here

First, I want to thank everyone that is a follower or checks out my blog behind the scenes. It makes my day knowing when I've helped you and your families.  Now, I would like to ask if you could help me make my blog better.  I have a few questions, but please if you think of anything else please share.

Giant Eagle Listings:

Do you prefer me to only publish the Scenario post once even though I make updates to it ?

Do you prefer I republish the Scenario post, so it goes to the top of the blog and into your inbox, when I make updates?

Do you prefer the math shown for all coupons for that one item?

Do you prefer just the one most likely available for that one item?

General Blog Appearance:

Is the theme background distracting?

Do you prefer a pale color background or white?

Is the font too small?

Is the font too large?

Easy to navigate to your interests or hard to navigate?

Would ads bother you? Not likely? Likely? Totally?

Topics you like best now?

Topics for the future?

I'd so appreciate any and all opinions. I am considering a different location with a slightly different layout. I'm hoping for better features and less trouble with the format.
You may have notice weird spacing and font sizes too.  Honestly, this is not my intentional doing. lol  It looks completely sane, well for me, in the creating section and  then Wham, it goes kaplooey once it posts, Come On! lol

Giant Eagle 1/28-2/3

I just saw a snippet of what is going to be on sale this week and it time to do some major shoooooopppppinnnngg!  Unilever oyno is coming to town and just in time to stock up on some more Ragu.  It's not my favorite, but for free  I'm not going to snub it.    I will try and get up some scenarios tonight or tomorrow morning so you can go coupon hunting and prepare your list.  I totally forgot when I started trading for coupons this is a $5 oyno wyb $20 not wyb  $10. :(   You will still get some good deals, just not the MoneyMakers I first thought.  See You Soon!

Please let me know if you see any math mistakes. I normally double, triple check, but I made a doozy on the Hellmann's. Thanks to Meems posting in the HCW forum or I wouldn't have checked again.

Meijer 1 Day Sale

 

This is Saturday 23rd!   Nickels-n-Dimes has the details.

75% Off Lord & Taylor

Lord & Taylor is having a sale online and in store. I saw some very cute strappy highheels marked down to $25, men's chino shorts were around $13,  a few other nice kids' deals, plus the baby department, 2pc baby boys for only $7.49 and then the lowest price item I found was a cute little three piece baby girl outfit for $5.96 that would make great gifts.

Those are the prices before the additional 20% off.  The Promo Code is Take2 and shipping is free for orders $99 or more otherwise it starts at $5.95.

The best news, I think,  is you can print out the coupon and use it in the store so no shipping and handling if you just want a few lower priced items. I've never personally bought anything from L&T, but I imagine they're similar to other stores where I often find more bargains and selection in the store than online.

Monave 50% Off~1Day!

January 25,2008

Eyes: Mink(3/4lid,crease, outer)Mirage(whole lid and lining)Sand Beige(highlight)
Brows: Mink.

This is more like once in a lifetime. lol  I have never seen a sale like this at Monave.  This foundation is excellent, eye shadows are beautiful and rich. I really liked the blush I tried too. 

This is some of the info I found by "Evita" on Mad about Minerals forum:

"The sale runs from Friday Jan 22nd at 12:01 am to Friday Jan 22nd at 12pm midnight,...  To receive your discount, please use this code MONAVE50 in the promo code box when you place your order!  There are no rain checks or use with other sale..."

Rebates~Last Call

 

I wanted to share the rebates that need to be mailed in very soon all in one post.  A couple of the Olay need to be purchased by Sunday.  Here are the ones I've been busy filling out:

Olay Regenerist $15 wyb 2

Olay Quench Purchase Price up to two products

SC Johnson $5 ~This one can be done 3 times

Nabisco Keep the Jingle in Your Holiday $10 wyb 10

I spent out of pocket:

$12.50 Olay Quench ($11.99 drugstore.com +$.49 RA)
 $.05 Olay Regenerist ($tax Manu and Store Coupons)
-$5.50 Glade Candles ($1.75 tax oop-$7.25)
 $16 Planters/NabiscoKraft ($30-5q-$25cats receive $16 catalinas)
=$23.05
-$59.48 MIR
=$36.43 Profit and $100+ in Merchandise

How I calculate my profits I take the actual amount I spent out of pocket+ (catalinas spent-catalinas earned) could be ECBs or RRs in other instances then substract my Rebate or Cash going back into my pocket.  To get accurate figures one must count the rewards spent too because usually at one time or another real cash was spent. I hope that made sense. It's easier to show with ECBs or RRs.

Hot Coupon`Sunbelt

This is from Facebook so it is legit. I wasn't so sure at first! Thanks MoJo Savings for sharing this information.

Sunbelt is offering a BOGOF coupon for their Granala, Fruit and Grain Bars!  This is the brand I used to always buy before going coupon crazy. The regular price was hard to beat and everyone enjoyed the granola bars.
I can't believe Sunbelt is offering this fabulous coupon, but they are and if memory serves me correct you should be able to score two boxes for about $1.29 or $1.59.

I just study the coupon and this is for the Family Packs priced between $2.19 and $2.59 so about $1.10 -$1.30 each.  My search online found only found one size and it contains 8 bars so now I'm not too thrilled about this deal. It would be okay if we were in a pinch and needed some travel food, but when I've bought Kellogg's Bars for as little $.17 for a box of 6 it's hard to stay excited about this.  I know every area and family is different so I hope this is a great deal for someone.

Sunbelt Coupon BOGOF

Lumiere Brush Regrets

I know I don't have a lot of followers and the ones I do I'm not even sure if they are that interested in mineral makeup and brushes, but just incase someone is I wanted to share this:

I now regret not buying the Travel Kabuki! What was I thinking? I've been wanting a soft travel kabuki for a long time now.  I was thinking I'm already spending money on brushes that I don't need, could really use though and to feed my want of every brush to match. The fact that the kabuki is not my favorite for applying foundation, but a flat top or buffer brush is and a kabuki is slightly dense for my liking of powder application and slightly large for blush.  Also I don't travel much.  Hello Maria!  When I do travel with makeup this travel kabuki would be perfect.

 

 photo credit: lumierecosmetics.com

This is why if you order you should get a travel kabuki:

• Self Contained~Clean
• Half Way Out of Tube~ Heavier Foundation Application (like a buffer)
• Three-Quaters Out~Blush Application
  
• All the Way Out~Powder Application
• Takes Up Less Space~Great for Purse

In between each product one can wipe excess product on a tissue or baby/facial wipe.  In a pinch one could even use it to wash on some eye shadow.  I know I've used my Kabuki as a shadow blender in the past.

Meijer 1/17-1/23

Silk $.75 (Tried this and this sure didn't turn me onto soy milk, lol)

Lumiere Pre-Buy Brushes!

Only a couple of days left to order!

My sil and I are going in together so I can save on shipping and insurance. I was too money conscience to spend $8 on it, but $4 is okay. lol  I haven't totally decided what I'm getting, but I know I'm getting the small buffer brush, duo fiber brush $7 ,comparable to MAC 187 that commands $42!, duo fiber blush brush, two pencil eye shadow brushes and maybe another brush or two.

The prices are fabulous and the quality is excellent too. I have a Long Handled Kabuki from last year's pre-buy and it is still super soft. All Taklon even the duo fiber which is ofter a mix of synthetic and pony. The only real complaint I have is my shadow brushes from the travel kit poke my eyelid. Those are a little too stiff and dense for my liking.

This time around the brushes are going to be hot pink and black so totally cute and fun if you have a young lady that loves pink. 

 Lumiere Brushes!

The pictures on the site are just samples not the final color. I will take pictures and share my thoughts when I receive those. I'm getting excited now! 

Giant Eagle 1/21-1/27 and Scenarios

Last night I saw a scan of the ad and personally I didn't see too much worth mentioning. The ad was slightly small for my old blurry monitor so maybe I missed something.  I will post if I or anyone else finds a buried treasure this week.  Just know I'm 99% sure you won't be rushing to order coupons or multiple papers.

Ocean Mist Cosmetics 25% Everything this Month Promo Code 2010.

This was my second or third mineral company I tried. The formula has changed slightly which I haven't tried.  What I did try was nice light to medium coverage. The Vanilla shade was perfect.  My mom enjoyed OM's eye shadow as it didn't irritate her eyes like Everyday Minerals did. Overall Ocean Mist is a nice company with a nice line.

Giant Eagle Scenarios 1/14-1/20

Here is a sneak peek at the upcoming ad and scenarios. Thanks goes to Pam from HCW for posting the ad. As the week goes on and more deals are found I will put the new deals at the top and every so often change the date of the whole post so it is on the home page. If it isn't on the home page just look to your left at the categories and choose Giant Eagle Scenarios.

More updates thanks to HCW and Cherry Picker.  It appears that most items are going by shelf and the kraft cheese is a double dip. Buy 6 get 3 $4 OYNO and $5 OYNO  Make sure your cheese shelf is $5.19 first. I'll do the scenario below. 

You can also mix and match the other items to reach the $10, but you must buy 5 cheese to get the $5 cat. Remember though that you will only get one kraft cat per transaction even though you get multiple cats for the $10~$4 OYNO deal. Put no more than 5 cheese in a transaction.

Rite Aid Shopping Trip 1/17

Also being published later tonight.  I a delightful experience trying to exchange wrong size Bayer since I used two coupons. Ugh!

Went to different store to exchange since original store was giving me a hard time. At one point she said forget with the register and said here even exchange. Excuse me how is $10.98 the same as $3.98 even if the store insists on keeping the coupons and subtracting those from the total? It would still be $10.98 vs $7.98.

Exchange $7.45 back so Trans #2 cost $.41 oop

Rite Aid Shopping Notes

Just thought I'd share what my shopping notes look like for this week. Usually I condense it down to one page, but I didn't this time. If I did I would choose to take out the information about P&G promotion and my ending tally of cost, scr, mir and profit.  So I'm going to post my second page first and then my first page.  I like to put little extras in case a scenario doesn't work out due to lack of stock.

CVS 1/17

CVS just has not been very exciting for me lately. This past week I was able to get my 6 boxes of SoyJoys  $6 get $6 ECBs, but that is it. I plan to get some more Cottonelle or Charmin and probably use my Thermacare raincheck since my coupons expire the 31st. My ECBs expire the 25th and 30th so I would like to roll those or use those up. My store does allow expire ECBs, but I hate to make a habit and I fear one day I'll walk in and be told, "Sorry Charlie!" 

Here's the ad for your viewing pleasure, compliments of Seedlady

Earlier today a HCW member mentioned Facebook and GE meat deal. I forgot about it until tonight when Cherry Picker blogged about it.  So I thought I'll just go ahead and sign up with GE on FB.  What I discovered was a chance to win a $25 GiftCard.  They will pick 20 random fans!

Rite Aid 1/17-1/23

I have been so absorbed with the chatter and deals of Giant Eagle that I've ignored Rite Aid. I had planned on typing up my scenarios for both stores today, but got neither done.  I may work on that now or in the morning, but wanted to provide you with the link to ad for it.

Also the ad is posted for the following week which is great and lets me know to sit tight and wait for that Maybelline deal at 40% off instead of BOGO50%.  All that moneymaking Almay mascara I purchased at Walgreens last month has been irritating my eyes. Isn't that wonderful? lol  A  girl can't be without mascara and that free sample of L'Oreal isn't going to last for long. Colossal here I come!

Rite Aid Ad 1/17

What I remember off the top of my head is the Contour Monitor is $14.99 so paired with the Monitor coupon and $5/$20 VV one can get $5 of free merchandise! 

Also Bayer aspirin is $1.99 and pair it with $2 VV and it's free. Use it to reach the $20 mark for you $5/$20 VV coupon!

Tide is $5.99 would be free with $1q if you use pair that up with the Bayer or Contour

I also see more Pantene in my one sil's near future.

SCRs are quite blah this week.

Rite Aid Ad 1/24

Starts February SCRs

Obviously for me the Maybelline 40% made a large impact.

Giant Eagle Tomato Sauce Deal

Thanks to Sarah from HCW!  This deal is with normal everyday price of Contadina Tomato Sauce. She advised to watch the double so it doubles all the way to $1.50 not $1. Look in the lower left hand corner for coupon link.


Contadina Tomato Sauce $.48*3+$1.44-$.75/3 IP dbl=Free!

The coupon is good for any product 15oz or smaller just in case you don't want sauce. I think I will check out the paste. Oh and Sarah mention Pizza Sauce was $1 so that would be $3-$1.50=$1.50/3

Mineral Mania Monday!

This is a sale from Aubrey Nicole. I have never used this line, but I trust this small company enough to say give it a try at 40% off EVERYTHING. The discount comes off automatically which I love. I may have to treat myself and give Aubrey Nicole a try. 

Here is the email I received:

 

Kmart ~$.50 Cereal 1/10

There is buzz all around blog world about the General Mills deal at Kmart. I live too far to do this deal, but I probably would if I could. I've slack off from cold cereal buying because the cost of organic milk makes cheap cereal for breakfast not so cheap. The nice thing about Cheerios though is I could do treats like Rice Krispies.

Mindi Cherry at Moms Need to Know has a nice post with all the links to the IPs.

Check out the post at A Thrifty Mom!  Remember that Staples Rewards are different from Staples Rebates. The Rewards are only good on future purchases at Staples. The Rewards can be used towards items that receive Staples Rebates so if you're patient you will receive your money back.

The downside is you have to wait until the quarter is up to receive even the weekly perks. I'm still waiting on mine from the end of October. Grrr If you pay with perks that purchase does not count towards the $75/$10.

Are you like me and hate cardio exercise unless it is fun and not an aerobic video? Well this could be the ticket! I would love to learn these dances in the privacy of my own home, read not coordinated. Plus, I'm modest and frankly the Latin dances should not be done within a group imho. TMI? lol

Giant Eagle Scenarios 1/07-1/13

My apologies for lagging behind so much the last few weeks. I thought for sure I'd be all set this week, but nope. Sickness and laziness struck again. Ack!  The ladies at HCW have been so great this week posting scenarios to go along with the sale/coupon post so I am going to share what they've found here.  A special thanks to Jen who gathered all the deal scenarios, different methods until I change it, into one post so it's even easier for me to post here. 

* The Kraft catalina is giving many in Pittsburgh trouble and it doesn't seem that the catalina company is efficiently fixing this problem. The deals are supposed to work exactly the same at all GEs.  Ohio is working well, but not for 2% or Fat Free Products.
