Kohl's is at it AGAIN!

Kohl's just keeps rocking with these extra 15% off EVERYTHING coupons. You either get them in the mail and/or online if you sign up for their email program. This one is good from July 30 - July 31st so time to take another look at all of the clearance items that have been marked down AGAIN!

Maurices

I hope that you are all on the Maurices mailing list! I received these coupons in the mail a few days ago. The teal colored one is good from July 26 - August 1 for and EXTRA 15% off of clearance items. I find lots of great items in their clearance at the Faribault Maurice's. The other coupon is for 20% off your total purchase! Yahoo. Also, don't forget to get a punch card going to get further discounts after filling up your punch card!

It all adds up!

Ice Mountain Water

I had to buy some Ice Mountain water yesterday and got this great Catalina Offer at the checkout. NOTE: Ice Mountain is on sale 3 for $10 through 7/31/2010! Anyway, the catalina sale reminder says that if you buy 2 24-packs between 7/30/10 and 8/22/10 you'll get $2.00 off your next order. If you buy 3 24-packs you'll get $3.00 and if you buy 4 or MORE you'll get $5.00 off your next order. You do not need the paper shown at left to do this deal, it is just a sale reminder.

I'm thinking that it's time to stock up on Ice Mountain on 7/30/2010 to catch the best sale. Scenario: Buy 3 24-packs on 7/30 for $10.00 and get a catalina at checkout for $3.00. This makes each 24-pack $2.33!

That's a NICE price if you drink Ice Mountain.

Tear Pad Finds at Cub Foods

I was in Cub Foods in Northfield yesterday and found these NEW tearpads in the store. The Cheetos one will probably be a great one to save for a sale at Walgreens - it's good until 9/30/2010. The Kool-Aid coupon for $1.00 off 2 powdered beverages (excludes envelopes) is good until 12/31/2010 and we know they'll be some fantastic sales on these products towards the end of the summer season!

Over $8.00 Money Maker on Listerine!

Remember a few weeks ago when I mentioned the great clearance that Target had on Listerine?  Well, when purchasing the $1.98 Listerine Whitening there was a $10 rebate!  It seemed hard to believe but I found out that it was true after checking my mailbox yesterday!  Low and behold was a $10 AMERICAN EXPRESS GIFT CARD!  Yahoo!  This was over an $8.00 MONEYMAKER!

FREE TOSTITOS!

Cub Foods has a great deal on Pepsi Products this week! Use the coupon in the circular to get 2 24 packs for $10.00 then use the coupon for the FREE Tostitos Tortilla Chips when you buy two Pepsi 24 Packs! That's a deal that I have not seen before and definitely beats out Walmart pricing for Pepsi! It's worth stocking up on Pepsi this week at Cub Foods!

Walgreens July 25 thru 31

It's still BACK TO SCHOOL time at Walgreens and I hope you are stocking up a little bit each week on their great school supply prices! Plus they have alot of coupons in their circular this week to take advantage of. They are repeating the Twizzlers sale. After Register Rewards you can get 2 for $1.00. The other knock out deal this week is the Listerine on the back page. Cut out that coupon to get Listerine for $1.99 - a wonderful price!

Remember, if you don't understand how Register Rewards work let me know and I'll help you! Contact me at theviewfromjan@gmail.com !!!

While your at HyVee!

Check out the display by the refrigerated fruits at HyVee and you should see 2 displays of these new Hefty One Zip Fresh Extend bags for $1.59 each. There is a sign on the display for $1.00 off produce if you buy the bags with the coupon! Well, somebody had wiped out the coupons (Please don't take all the tearpad coupons! One or two is enough!) but I asked the store manager if they would still honor the sign and he said YES! This one might go fast. Yahoo!

HyVee this Week - July 25 thru 31

HyVee in Faribault has some great deals this week. The have DOLE Pineapple for $.59 and these $.55 off 2 coupons are available at Cub Foods and Econo. Keep your eyes peeled for them and you can snag 2 cans of DOLE Pineapple for $.63. Think stock up time if you have several of these coupons!

Also, be on the ALERT to HyVee's 12 Hour Sale on Saturday, July 31 8 to 8pm. The best item is the Fully Cooked Rotisserie Chicken for $3.99. You CAN'T buy a chicken and cook it for this price! I love to buy these, de-bone the meat and either FREEZE, make chicken casserole, soup, especially Chicken & Dumpling, and chicken salad. The Deli Sliced Ham has a GREAT price of $1.49 that day too! Yahoo.

FREE Samples!

I snagged these FREE samples of the new Weber Seasonings at Walmart. I got the Gourmet Burger, Kick'n Chicken and Chicago Steak. I found them by the door to the meat department storage area at the Faribault Walmart. Keep your eyes peeled as these packets are enough to season at least two items. I have found freebies in the past by this door too so it's a place to always check when you're in the store. What I recall finding there before is the FREE seasonings for Chex Mix. Cub Foods charges about $.78 for the Chex Mix seasonings BUT Walmart always has them for FREE - at least for the last 2 years!

It all adds up!

Got my FREE Jump Rope

I received my FREE electronic jump rope from Fairview Health Services late last week. I can't wait to try it out. Fairview was giving these away about 2 months ago and I had forgotten that I had signed up for it! I love surprises in the mail.

FREE Lea & Perrins

I found this TRY ME FREE! coupon at Cub Foods yesterday for the NEW Lea & Perrins Thick Classic Worcestershire Sauce which is great for dipping & topping! Yahoo! I had found a $1.00 off coupon at Econofoods on Monday in a little coupon dispenser in the aisle Lea & Perrins is located and popped it into my coupon book. Use the $1.00 off coupon to get it for $1.99 but will get a rebate of $2.99 from Lea & Perrins! That makes this a $.66 MONEY MAKER after I use a $.44 stamp to mail in the REBATE. Love it!

The Kraft Macaroni & Cheese 5-Pack deal is BACK!

I noticed that the KRAFT Marcaroni & Cheese 5-packs have the coupons for the FREE Capri Sun with purchase coupons again! Then I found these great coupons to get a FREE Kool-Aid Fun Fizz 8 count package when you purchase 3 Capri Suns!

A great deal would be to purchase 3 Kraft Mac & Cheese 5-packs, get 3 Capri Sun FREE, and get a FREE Kool-Aid Fun Fizz!

It all adds up!

A1 Steak Sauce or Marinade, 10 oz or Larger

I found these great coupons at CUB FOODS yesterday for $1.00 on BEEF with purchase of A1 Steak Sauce or Marinade, 10 oz or larger. The coupons are good until 5/31/2011 so these are great ones to grab while you can!

Kraft Cheese & Dairy Products

Kraft Foods at Cub yesterday had peelies for a $5.00 OFF Your Next Grocery Order when you buy 5 Kraft Cheese or Dairy Products. They will also donate 5 meals to Feeding America! This offer is good until 8/14/2010 so keep your eye on KRAFT cheese and dairy sales at Cub Foods.

I WON A 5 POUND SALTED NUT ROLL!

Channel 45 & Pearson's Candy Company have joined together to celebrate Pearson's 100th Anniversary and they are giving away a 5 pound Salted Nut Roll every week through the end of the year. You can sign up on the Channel 45 website at www.kstc45.com and go under "Events/Free Stuff."

Thank you Pearson's and Channel 45!

SHOPPER ALERT - Almond Breeze Milk

SHOPPER ALERT! I was just in Econofoods and they have a basket before you enter the store of weekly ads, etc. Well, also in that basket is a little booklet of MAMBO SPROUTS Green Spring SAVINGS coupons. On page 2 is a coupon for $1.00 OFF Blue Diamond Almond Breeze! Grab 2 of these booklets and head on over to Cub Foods to pick up 2 cartons for $2.00 for 2 this week!

Famous Self-Help Guru, Tony Robbins will be having a tv show beginning next Tuesday evening. Be sure to catch this show if you are at all interested in self-help and creating a better life for yourself.

Cub Foods this Week - July 18 - 24

Sorry there is no pic but I did spot some GREAT bargains in this week's Cub Foods ad.
Blue Diamond Almond Breeze milk - 2 for $4.00 - USE 2 $.55 coupons from the 7/1/10 or 5/23/10 Smartsource
Fischer Dry Roasted Peanuts - 2 for $4.00 - USE 2 $1.00 off coupons to get 2 for $2.00
Kraft Sald Dressing - $1.69 - USE up those $1.00 off coupons from the 6/20/10 Smartsource to get them for $.69 each
Gold'n Plump Chicken Breasts or Strips - $4.99 - USE $1.00 off coupon to get a 32 oz frozen bag for $3.99
And, I just love the Stouffer's Macaroni & Cheese! It's on sale for $1.99 so it's my stock up time. Stouffer's also has a "Club" that you can join to get FREE products after you collect so many points. If you love Stouffer's products I suggest joining the club to see what you can earn!
Finally, Clip all of those great manufacturer coupons if they match up with sales!
The Red Seedless Grapes are a great price at $.79 per pound, too. Make sure and clip the coupon and there is a limit of 4 pounds of grapes to get the $.79 price.

EconoFoods This Week - July 18-24

FREEBIE ALERT! Econofoods has the Marcal SmallSteps facial tissue and paper towels on sale for 10 for $10 this week. A great time to cruise on in and use those FREE after coupons that came in your 6/13/10 Smartsource circular! I have 8 of these coupons!

ANOTHER GREAT DEAL at Econofoods is the Smucker's Toppings sale for 2 for $3.00. Use the "Save $1.25 off 2!" coupon from the Smucker's Booklet that was available in the store a few weeks ago and you can get 2 toppings for $1.75 or use the "Buy 3 Get 1 Free!" coupon to get 4 for $4.50! Obviously, the first coupon is the better one to use unless you NEED 4 jars! Sounds like it's ice cream sundae time at my house!

Also, on the back page of this week's ad is a manufacturer coupon for a FREE 2-liter bottle of any Coca-Cola product. Cut this out even if you're not going to buy any right now. The coupon is good until 8/4/2010 and you can use it at any store since it's a manufacturer coupon. I'd keep my eye on Cub Foods' ad in the next couple of weeks to see if you can pair it with their sales.

FREE Movie Ticket!

I found a great deal on MaMa Rosa's personal size pizza's at HyVee. They have them for $1.00 each and if you buy 4 you can send for a FREE movie ticket to any Warner Brothers movie! Only one rebate per household. I figure the movie ticket is worth about $6 - $7! These little pizza's are similar to the Totino's brand. A great snack size.

FREE Smoothie or Frappe at MCDONALDS!

You'll find a coupon for a FREE Smoothie or Frappe in the Sunday, July 18th Parade or USA Weekend magazine. Be sure and grab that one! My daughter is gaga for the Caramel Mocha Frappe. It's her new favorite!

Walgreens Buys This Week - July 18-24

The pickins seemed slim at Walgreens this week but there are a couple of good deals.

These Ziploc bags (30 count) are a good price after using the $1.00 off coupon from the July Coupon Booklet that you'll find in the front of the store and a $1.00 Manufacturer's coupon. It makes them $1.50 per box which I think is a fair price for a box of 30.

You can also pick up FREE Colgate toothepaste this week so it may be worth a few trips to the store to build your stockpile! Add in the $1.00 off coupon from the 7/11/2010 Smartsource and you've got a small MONEY MAKER! (Be sure to buy some other item that costs the $1.00 so that the register does not beep. Hey, it's a good time to stock up on some school supplies AND toothepaste!)

Also, the Hamburger Helper is $.99 per box. Add in a coupon for $1.50 off 3 and you can stock up on that at $.49 per box. I don't have a circular date for that coupon but I KNOW it's in your circulars!

$.05 for a Broom & Mosquito Repellent!

ACE Hardware had a great 3-day sale over the weekend and I just had to go in and see what I could find! I really scored on a Broom and this can of Cutter Mosquito Repellent. I like keeping a broom in the back of my pickup during the winter so that I can easily clean the snow off in the winter and this one was perfect for the job.

After Ace Rewards, Sale prices, In Store Scratch Off Discount, and a $1.00 coupon for the Cutter I paid the cashier $.05!!! The cashier was dumbfounded! The look on her face was priceless.

It all adds up!

FREE FlameDisk

There's a new product on the market to use when grilling instead of charcoal. It's called FlameDisk and is a really great idea for those camping or on the road and grilling meals along the way. It would be even in the backyard. After being lit you can begin grilling within 3 minutes! When you're done all you have to do is douse it with water! Yahoo!

I received a coupon for a FREE one back in June but had not found them in any store until this weekend. I found them in the Owatonna Target on CLEARANCE for $2.48. There are also coupons for $1.00 off in the 6/27/10 Red Plum. Definitely worth trying or stocking up on if you've got a road trip coming up!

Rubbermaid Produce Saver

Here's a great example and reason for collecting those tear pad coupons when you see them in stores! I found these manufacturer coupons a couple of weeks ago and grabbed a few and put them into my coupon book. This weekend I found the small size Rubbermaid Produce Saver at HyVee for $2.99 and got a canteloupe for $.50! These Produce Savers do really work!

Kwik Trip JULY Coupons

I know that I missed reminding you all about the July Kwik Trip coupons that come in the newspapers on the 1st Wednesday of the month but I want to remind you all that there are 2 SUPER COUPONS in it this time along with all of the gas and coupons off on other items.

There is a coupon for GET ONE POUND OF FREE BANANAS, ONIONS OR POTATOES and a coupon for a FREE LOAF OF BREAD OR BUN PACKAGE.

Don't forget to use these valuable coupons. They expire on August 17, 2010!

Dress Barn

I have a Dress Barn charge card and get sale mailings. The latest mailing includes a great 25% off items that are already reduced 50% or more when you use your dressbarn credit card or 20% off when you use any other form of payment.

Now's the time to scour those Dress Barn clearance racks! There is always a good buy in there and add this great coupon to it to get 75% off or MORE!

The way I handle my Dress Barn charge card is to sign up for it and get an immediate percentage off my purchase. Next write a check for the amount of the charge and give it to the cashier. This way you get notified on all of the discounts but have no bill coming in the mail because you pay it off instantly. I sometimes do this at J.C. Penney and it can be done at Kohl's also. It does take a strong will to pay instantly but it is worth it to get all of the discounts.

It all adds up!

UPDATE to Famous Footwear post

I almost forgot this item and it could mean a 20% discount for you.

The coupon booklet at left is being handed out at check out when you make a purchase at Famous Footwear right now. There is a 20% off your entire purchase coupon in it! I suggest that you buy a pair or two of those cheap socks, pay and get the 20% off coupon. Then go shopping for clearance or school shoes and then use the 20% coupon when paying! Why not? Believe me there are a lot of people doing the same thing!

It all adds up!

JC Penney Coupon - July 14-17

Be sure and take your JC Penney coupons with you when you go shopping July 14-17. There are lots of clearance items that are on drastic reductions right now. (I'm thinking more socks, summer sleepware, sandals, new bedroom stuff, pillows, etc.) Then add the $10 off a purchase totaling $50 or more and you'll get a lot of shopping done for $40.00!

It all adds up!

Lots of Posts

I've just posted tons of items this morning so be sure to go back a page or two on my blog to get caught up on the news. Believe it or not I have more to post but have some other things to do. Will write again soon and have a great day!

Gotta Move Fast on This One!

This deal is a little more money put out of pocket (temporarily) than I'm used to but it may be a super deal for you!

Neutrogena is offering a TRY IT FOR FREE! rebate deal on their Neutrogena Clinical SPF 30, Night or Eye. The rebate form says "Offer valid on purchases made from 7/11/2010 - 7/18/2010 up to $40.00. Offer EXCLUDES Neutrogena Clinical Starter System. Must be postmarked by 7/31/2010.

I would not do this deal without having the rebate form already in hand just on the chance you are unable to print the form since this is a high value purchase. Go to Neutrogena's website to get the rebate form.

This week's Cub Foods Coupon

I just received my regular FRIDAY coupon from Cub Foods. The coupon this week if for $2.00 off when you purchase any one Lloyd's Babyback Ribs or Spareribs. I just happened to pick up a peelie last week at Walmart good for $1.00 off any Lloyd's Barbeque Tub or RIBS!!!! Yay! That's $3.00 off.

KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED FOR THOSE PEELIES AND TEAR PADS! As long as they are manufacturer coupons they can be used at any store!

It all adds up!

Olay $10 Rebate

Do you still have tons of those $4.00 off on Olay Total Effects Body Wash coupons from the June 6th P&G mailer? Well here's your chance to make a little money off of them! Go to Olay's website and print out this rebate form!

The deal is to purchase $30 worth of any Olay, Venus, Covergirl, Secret or Pantene products and receive a $10 rebate by mail. Rebate submissions must be postmarked by October 1, 2010.

A deal idea our there in the blog world is to purchase 7 Olay Total Effects Body Wash ($4.79) = $33.53 from TARGET, then use 7 of those $4.00 off coupons = $28.00 off, spend $5.53 Out Of Pocket and submit for the rebate. This will turn into a $4.47 MONEY MAKER! Believe it or not I have MORE THAN 7 OF THESE COUPONS!

Of course you can also do this deal by purchasing any of the other ELIGIBLE products on the rebate form but if you've got all those $4.00 coupons like I do, well, why not stock up on body wash!

Toilet Paper Roll TOO Large?

I have been surprised by the size of some of the toilet paper rolls lately that I've gotten in my search for good deals. They have been TOO big for my roll holder. Have you had this problem? Well, go on over to Proctor & Gamble's Charmin website and you can snag a FREE toilet paper roll extender! You can order up to 3 for FREE!

ACE Hardware

Last week I also received my $5.00 SURPRISE Ace Hardward reward card. I don't recall doing anything to earn this special reward but I guess that ACE really loves giving me good deals! The $5.00 card is good until 7/31/2010 so I'll be stopping in and visiting my favorite hardware store this week or next. Be sure and sign up for this great program even if you only shop there a few times a year because I'm to the point of profit from ACE Hardware for all of the rewards they have sent me this year!

It all adds up!

This week at Walgreens - July 13 Shopping

Since I've been so busy with my real job I didn't have too much time to scour Walgreens this week but did have a $3.00 Register Reward that was expiring so ran in quick to use it on Tuesday. In the school supply area I spotted this 4-pack box of my favorite style of envelopes. The peel N Stick style. They were regularly priced at $5.00 clearance priced for $2.50 for the 4-pack. (That's $.01 per envelope! Who can beat that price?) I quickly grabbed that and then spotted the Scotch brand "donut" tape for $1.14 and remembered that I had a coupon for $.50 off this item. So I paid $.14 Out Of Pocket before tax which was $.25. The hilarious thing about owing the store $.39 was that I had no cash and had to pay the $.39 with my debit card! Oh boy am I frugal or what!

Famous Footwear Good Deals!

I stopped in to Famous Footwear last weekend, too and they also have started some summer markdowns. My daughter found the cutest summer sandals for $10, a pair of classy winter boots originally priced over $80 for $40 and the best deal was their socks! She and I picked up several pairs of knee high winter socks at $.75 per pair. The socks were regularly $3.99!

Always buy or stock up out of season for the very best deals. It all adds up!

Organic Foods Coupons in ROOT STOCK!

I know that a lot of people complain that there are never coupons for organic foods. Well, I found a great little FREE magazine at HyVee last weekend which features organic farmers, great stories, recipes, poetry and, yes, coupons for ORGANIC DAIRY products!

It's a smart read with benefits! The magazine is called Root Stock and probably is available at Just Foods, too! Keep your eyes peeled for this great little magazine.

P&G Brand Sampler Coupons

If you haven't already done it sign up with P&G to get great samples and coupons mailed to you. I received this great coupon booklet last week that has coupons for Tide, Bounty, ProGlide Razors and Iams Dog Food! They even come personalized with your NAME on the booklet! Even if you don't use every coupon there are some good ones in these booklets! I also got large samples of Pantene Shampoo and Creme Rinse last week in the mail from them! I love FREE stuff!

I'm Back!

I'm back to blogging after getting through Laura Baker's 19th Annual Golf Tournament. It is our 2nd largest fundraiser of the year and so it took all of my time lately. But, here we go for some great deals and bargains!

Kohl's has started their serious summer markdowns and I was able to snag this Dana Buchman purse.

Originally $80.00

Marked Down to $16.00

Less 15% Discount Coupon $14.60

Yup, that's right I got this fabulous name brand purse for $14.60!

It all adds up and a girl needs a new purse once in a while!

4th of July Weekend

I won't be blogging again until Tuesday, July 5th so please check back then for next week's leads on deals and freebies. Have a safe and Happy 4th of July AND
LET'S HOPE THEY FIND JACOB WETTERLING!

Econo Foods this Week

Econo Foods has a great $1.00 coupon for Kraft Cheese this week in their circular! After the sale price and the coupon you can pick up Kraft cheese for $1.00 for 8 oz. which is a really good price for cheese. You do have to purchase 2 blocks.

While in the store I also found this Smucker's booklet. It has some great recipe ideas and 2 coupons in it. One of the coupons is for $1.25 off 2 and the other is BUY 3 GET 1 FREE! I know that last week Target had their Smucker's on clearance so this would make a great deal to add these coupons too. Remember, as long as it says "Manufacturer's Coupon" you can use it at any store that accepts coupons not just the store that you find it in!

It all adds up!
