Did You Stock Up this Week??

Did you get your fill of Lifesavers this week at CVS?? I definitely did...I think I bought over 20 bags throughout the week. They were B1G1 at $2.29 and using two $1 cpns (inside the promo bags), I got 2/$.29. I was going to take a pic of all I bought, but all my bags had to be opened to get the coupons out!!

Didn't Realize What I Was Missing!!

A fellow coupon friend of mine just introduced me to Refund Cents, a magazine that focuses on rebating and couponing. The lead articles and pictures where enough to get my attention!! So, I subscribed for a year at only $25. My first issue arrived, and that same day I sent for a $5 rebate on Energizer Lithium batteries I had purchased earlier!! I KNOW that this subscription is one that will easily pay for itself!! Not only do you have access to the printed monthly magazine, but there is also a blog w/daily updates. Check it out here.

My Top Ten!

I saw this at another site and revised it to fit me:

The Top Ten Reasons NOT to Get Behind Me in Line

10)I have OCD: Obsessive Coupon Disorder
9) I'm the crazy coupon lady you've heard about. Really.
8) I save $59.22 on a $60 order. I'm trying to beat my record.
7) If patience isn't your virtue, change lines.
6) I'm protected under the Right-to-Coupon Act.
5) "Price Check"
4) Five separate receipts should do it.
3)I may be slow, but my groceries are free.
2) I have coupons, and I know how to use them.
1) This hobby is paying for my daughter's college!!

Refund Cents is actually selling t-shirts with this printed on them! I loved it when I saw the list...very funny, and yet very true! The 1) on the original read "This hobby is paying for my next cruise", but that totally doesn't apply to me at all!

Thought you might enjoy it too!
