If you look under “household” you can find a $3 coupon for AmeriGas Cylinder Exchange if you plan on grilling. I think it is under most zip codes but I used 34982.

Go HERE to find a AmeriGas exchange near you. Go HERE for the coupon.

Make sure to scan your card at the kiosk in CVS, people are getting a coupon for a FREE Hershey’s Air Delight bar! I will let you know if I get one…

I know that there have been conflicting reports, but I wanted to make sure that you look for your P&G insert this week and don’t toss it out!

Take a look at my post below on how to get free Cascade with the $1 off coupon in this insert. There is also a good Tampax coupon you can use at CVS starting today.

Quick, make sure to print this high value Pop Tart coupon, I know that there will be some deals for this one, making them cheap! Go HERE to get a $2 off any 3 packs of Kelloggs Pop Tarts!

I am so glad it is a new month, I was so tired of looking at the same coupons all the time! Just for the price of ink, you can print these granola bar coupons! Sorry a little sarcasm due to the post below 🙂

I looked under 77477 and there are a BUNCH of good ones!

$.75/2 Nature Valley Granola Bars

$.50/1 Granola Thins ( I love the PB ones!)

$.40/1 Fiber Ones

** BTW I am back home! We were gone all week on the most AMAZING adventure you can imagine. I will post details and pictures tomorrow. It was truly one of the coolest things I have ever done. Stay tuned…

There have been a bunch of articles recently about and dealing with the coupon community that I am sickened by, I will share this one with you and see what you think.

This week in Denton, TX, a woman was arrested for stealing the inserts out of papers at a newspaper vending machine (I have no idea what these are called!) You can go HERE to read the article. This was not the first time that she had done this, the owner of the machine was sick of it as it causes him to loose money and staked out the machine where she was finally caught.

Wow, just wow, because you know that by the character that she has already shown that most likely she is also clearing off every shelf, not following coupon policies, re-selling her stockpile and in general making every other honest couponers life out there miserable.

Couponing is such a cool and fun way to provide for your family. How can it also bring out the worst in people?

Also this week thanks to a report from Patti, at my local Walmart someone handed a cashier 20 of the same coupon that was photocopied. They all had the same bar code number. If you are a new couponer, I just want to make sure that you are aware that you CAN NOT photo copy a coupon!! It is illegal. You are defrauding the manufacturer and people have been prosecuted for it. If you are a seasoned couponer and are photocopying coupons, you are stealing, there is no way around it.

YUCK. I hate this side of couponing, there are so many ways to get multiple coupons that you do not need to do anything like the examples above. Unfortunately, people see others on shows like Extreme Couponing and think that having 100’s of the same coupon is the way to go. IT IS UNNECESSARY. I shop for 9 people and was on EC and do NOT have more than 6-10 of any coupon. OCCASIONALLY I might get a few more on a rare occasion for something like Gatorade, but that is NOT very often. If you understand couponing you realize that all these deals will come back around again, and again, and again.

** If you can not afford coupons, there are plenty of places to pick up a few inserts for free.

• Ask your neighbors! Most people throw them away!
• Ask your friends, they also throw them away!
• Start a “coupon basket” at work or church where you can swap coupons.

I have 3 delivered to me for $1.50 total a week, then I buy 3 more on Saturdays at regular price. I pay $7.50 a week for 6 papers, that cost is FAR outweighed by the amount that I save just with those 6 papers alone. Spending $30 a month on papers saves me $600-$800 a month.

As a couponer who has a passion for this and coupons to support my family, I feel very strongly about keeping it “clean”, you will not get ahead by not following the rules. Off my soapbox now…

What do you think?

This weekend because it is a Holiday weekend there will be no inserts. At least there are NO scheduled inserts, sometimes there might be a single page tossed in but nothing to write home about. (Although, I did get an email saying P&G would have an insert…not sure if it’s everywhere)

Take this weekend to spend time with family and possibly get caught up on your other coupons!

So it is a new month and that means NEW coupons! If you are new and hear me talk about putting in zip codes, it can be confusing. “What do you mean and WHERE do I put in a zip code?”

When you click on a link for a printable coupon, it might look like this, $1/2 printable HERE. OR it will be in a match up like this:

(example only)

Kraft Cheese $2.50
Use $1 off coupon HERE
Total: $1.50

When you click on the link that is a different color it will take you to a site that looks like the picture above.

At the top left, right under the Coupons.com image is a place where you can type in a zip code.

By changing or typing in the zip code that I suggest you can find different coupons then if you left it the same all the time. Sometimes there might a coupon under 77380 that is NOT under zip 30303.

Some of my favorite zip codes, or ones that seem to have a lot of coupons are 90210 and 77477.

Go HERE to take a look and play around with different zip codes!
