Extreme Couponing, Houston Frugal Living Blog
Today Old Navy is have a 24% off sale, strange number huh?! Anyway, you can also get 10% cash back form Shop At Home to make it even a better deal AND you can get free shipping with a $20 purchase which is not hard to do! Thanks A Few Short Cuts!
This is what to do:
** I am reposting this if you missed it this weekend. Everyone is home safe and sound and the girls came in 7th in state. Way to go! Today marks an online travel sale day, if you are looking to travel, there should be some good deals today!
This is one of my softball players, I have 5 girls and so I have a few that play. She is tough and plays hard, she is also really competitive, I am not sure where that comes from 🙂
As you know Paul and Tucker went to Joplin MO to deliver all your donations that you brought in, they are spending the weekend on a work crew rebuilding a womans home/garage. She has been living with no walls and small children since May 22nd. We will have much more on that later.
This leaves me with 6 of the kids to go out of town for the weekend by myself overnight. As much as I want to complain about it I am truly grateful for a home to come back to.
Although., what kind of people play a state softball tourney in the middle of summer in Texas? It was 109 in the shade. It was so hot, it felt like you could cut the air with a knife. I don’t know how the girls were running and playing as hard as they were. I would have died!
When we go out of town I do it VERY frugally. I ALWAYS get a deal on everything form the hotel to the places we eat. When you travel as a team it can be difficult as someone else chose the hotel, the girls wanted to eat as a team and some of the ball parks do not allow you to bring in outside food. To cut costs when traveling with others these are some things that I do:
Our last game tonight started at 10:00pm. We got done and are back to the hotel room at 12:30am. I bathed the little kids and got them in bed, the older girls are showering and I am posting! The worst part is that our first game tomorrow is at 8:00am! We have to be there at 7:00am, so I am getting up in about 5 1/2 hours! Yuck!
Yesterday I only had a short amount of time to get anything done. I needed to make sure that I got some of these Nabisco Snack Bags for $1 at Randalls, plus I have $1/2 coupons making them only $.50 a bag.
I would have never made it into both stores, but I was able to go into Walmart and get the SAME deal just by price matching!
Now this particular deal ends today, BUT I do this almost EVERY TIME I walk into a Walmart. i just keep my store adds in my car or binder and bring them in with me.
You can see a video below of Paul explaining price matching and doing it at the store. **When he did this video they were NOT price matching B1G1 free sales, they DO now if it lists a specific price.
You can also see the ABC news program HERE that he did on price matching as well.
