I love getting free movies with Redbox codes. Also Family Video offered free videos for A's on report cards. Both of my kids took advantage of that. It is all about watching your pennies because it all adds up to real money.

I've learned a lot of money saving tips by reading various blogs. For instance, I've learned that CVS often has awesome deals. By stacking a manufacturer coupon with a store coupon you save more. And sometimes you even get rewards in the form of a receipt for money off your next shopping trip. At Walgreen's recently I did quite well with Prilosec. It was on sale and it had a $5 register reward. When the reward didn't print the store manager simply refunded me the $5 on the spot. Additionally, when I opened the package there was a $5 rebate for a gasoline purchase.

I am contstantly clipping coupons and I am subscribed to sunday newspapers soley for the coupons. And I put the dates of the coupons expiring on my calanders so I won't let one go to waste if I forget, and cross one out after I use it.

Save money on fresh produce by shopping for it at a Mexican Grocery. It'll be 1/3 the price of the major grocery chains, and just as good.

A money saving tip is USE the library. They have books, yes, but they have c.d.'s and movies...it's free and you don't have to keep renting or buying certain things if they are available at the library.

I save money on everyday necessities by matching coupons with the best store prices. Most of the time you can get things like deodorant & toothpaste for free. CVS used to be my favorite money-saving place, but they're slacking recently. :P Money-saving blogs are a lifesaver. They make it so easy to get the best deals!

Leland's Mama said...

Combine store and manufacturer's coupons.

free indeed said...

I try to watch the sales (like Rite Aid's) with rebates that make the product free and find a coupon to boot so I'm actually getting PAID to use the product! Rite Aid is the only local store that has sales and rebates...:( I am also slowly replacing all my regular light bulbs with the curly efficient kind. OUr winters are long and dark, so we need to watch our electricity usage. I also hang laundry outside in the summer and on a rack in the winter to use the dryer less.

TO save money, we use coupons and buy in bulk when an item is on sale so that we have enough on hand when it is not on sale. I have a foodsaver so I repackage large quantities into family size portions.

I love shopping the clearance racks at stores and when looking to buy a big purchase item, we look around as long as it takes to find the lowest price we can. It's fun when you make it a game!

Just a tip for thrift store shopping. Some people only think of shopping for clothes at thrift stores, but you can also buy cupcake pans, candles, small household electronics, etc. I bought my bread machine at a thrift store for $5 a couple of years ago and it still works perfectly!

I'm saving money as we speak by soaking and cooking, then freezing my own kidney beans. It's easy to do and saves us a couple of dollars each month.

Stephanie said...

I reuse my vacuum sealer bags. We buy the long rolls rather than the individual bags then cut them a little bigger than needed for whatever we are freezing to make sure we can get at least a couple of uses out of each bag (since everytime you cut off the top to open it, the bag gets a little smaller).

When grocery shopping, start sampling the generic brands. I've found that most are as good, if not better than, the brand names.

Besides using cloth diapers I also use cloth wipes. They can be washed along with the diapers and it saves a lot of money.

Don't shop when you are hungry. I find I end up with food that I wouldn't normally buy if I hadn't been couponing while hungry.

jezebelsk said...

Our big money saver is for me *not* to go grocery shopping. My hubby goes alone, and he is much better at following a list than I am. He also visits two stores: Aldi's & then Sunfresh. Whatever we can't get for super cheap at Aldi's we buy at Sunfresh. We consistently spend less than $75 a week for 2 people and 3 cats.
