Extreme Couponing, Houston Frugal Living Blog
Kids eat free this week at Chili’s through April 25th. Just print the coupon and bring it with you! The cool part is that 2 kids eat free with every adult meal, and since we buy 3 adult meals with my son (14 years) we can the little kids free! Thanks Amber!
Vitacost.com is offering the FREE $10 Credit for new customers again! Once you’ve signed up check your inbox (or spam) for the welcome email that holds your $10 credit coupon code. If you are a new customer or still have your $10 credit you’ll WANT to check out these newly added deals!
This is what you can do:
This is the order that Paul is doing today, he bought a Camel Bak water bottle and the Clif bars for kids that we like here. His total is $26.26 and he gets $10 off, making it $16.26 {the cost of the water bottle normally!} and gets free shipping!
I would suggest adding in the pricy protein bars, coffee k-cups, or even coconut oil and take advantage of the free shipping! Also, you can create your own referral link and share it with your friends and family easily on Facebook or email.
There is a new $1.00 off On Little Tummys Gripe Water or any Little Remedies product coupon that you can print. I have never used gripe water, but I use the saline all the time!
At Walmart:
Buy Little Noses Saline Spray/Drops $3.48
Use $1.00 off On LIttle Tummys Gripe Water or any Lit

This is a page from the CVS ad this week. That is also my finger at the top… at least my nails were painted this time 🙂 Paul was writing up a post for Walmart explaining how sometimes when companies group a bunch of items in a bunch and offer them all for the same price {$3 in this one} most of the time only a few items are a good deal at this price. For example, only the Windex is a good deal at $3, everything else is cheaper than $3 anyway at Walmart everyday!
But, if you buy this at CVS and get the $4 ECB back when you buy $12 worth, this is a good deal. BUT ONLY if you buy the Windex and use coupons!
::Deal Idea::
Buy 4 Windex at $3 each
Use 2 $0.75 off 2 Windex Glass cleaning products
Total out of pocket: $10.50
Get back $4
Total each: $1.62 which is a great price!

Thankfully he has grown into his ears!
This is a question from Tracy:
So, you do shop with your binder? I am still embarrassed to pull out all of my coupons. I have been thinking about getting a binder, and this encourages me to go for it. Do people stare at you?
YES! I shop with my binder. I put it right up in the front of the cart where you would put a little one and buckle him in! Honestly, and this could be a post in itself, I am used to people staring at me when I shop because I have a lot of kids. But, in the beginning I was very embarrassed to be shopping with that many kids AND using coupons.
I also live in an affluent area. Let me assure you we do not qualify! But, for good and bad we happen to live in a very nice community. That being said, more and more people are learning the value of couponing. A few years ago no one would be caught dead in our Walmart shopping, let alone with coupons but I see more and more people everyday and MORE with binders of some sort.
At the grocery stores people are very curious, I ALWAYS get asked about my binder and the kids. I love it now, people are very impressed and I have had only positive coupon questions from people. Comments on the number of children I have on the other hand…
** If you are a single Woman and looking… I have more Men stop and talk to me and look through my binder than Women!! They are super curious and think it is brilliant to use baseball card holders! I have had men follow me around the store chatting about coupons and how they are interested and how they wish their wives would do it! They stay around and will watch me check out, it is really funny.
Like my husband always reassures me, who cares if they stare, you are the one saving the money you should be staring at them for being so dumb as to not be using coupons!
Are you ever embarrassed to use a binder?
This is the best use I found for the coupon so far, what are your pest problems where you live. We have roaches in Texas that are bigger than that spider! Thanks I Heart The Mart!
