The Proverbs 31 woman is a challenge to all of us. This blog is an attempt to apply "She is like the ships of the merchant; she brings her food from afar" (ESV) in my everyday life through couponing and money-savings tips. Here I share what I do and learn.

Book Swapping Site
Mrs. Price is Right about Homeschooling: Book Swapping Site: "I couldn't decide if I should post this on my couponing site or here, so I'll do both! I found out about PaperBack Swap through a homeschoo..."

More Freebies
I've really been enjoying FreebieShark. I've been checking it everyday, but I've hit pay dirt with Mommy Snacks. She actually has a whole page of freebies. She has everything dated and even has a link that you can report it as expired. I've only made it through the D's, so far! Make sure to bookmark the page, so you can come back and check for new freebies.

Apple Market
Well, the Apple Market closest to my new place still does double coupon up to $0.49, BUT they don't accept internet coupons! Can you believe it?
But I'm going tomorrow to get a few things that I saw.
These two items I'm getting because they are cheaper than at Aldi's:
Best Choice Sugar $1.49 (Aldi $2.39, savings of 38%)
Best Choice Spaghetti Sauce $0.79 (Aldi $1.19, savings of 34%)
The one coupon deal not using internet coupons is:
Right Guard $0.99
Coupon for $1.50/2 from 8/15RP
Final price: $0.24 each.
That's about all I'm getting there tomorrow.

CVS 8/16
I'm back! Been a crazy month with moving and such. I'm terribly perturbed that because I slacked off my ECB and RR expired!
So, I now live right down the block from a CVS, so I'm going to jump back on the wagon there. I'm going to focusing more on family needs this trip rather than saving big, so my totals may not be as great as usual.
Checked out BargainBriana.com. Here's what I got:
Crayola Products prices starting at $1.99
Spend $15, Get $5 Extra Bucks (Limit 1)
Purex Complete 3-in-1 Sheets – $5.99
Earn $2 Extra Bucks (Limit 1)
$3/1 Purex Complete 3-in-1 Laundry Sheets, excludes 2 load 8/15/2010 RP Insert (exp 9/11/2010)
Final Price: $0.99
It actually ended up kind of being two separate trips. First time I went through my retail was 30.95. I paid 20.85. I only received $2 in ECB because some of the Crayola items were on sale and I didn't know it. So after sales, coupons, and recieving $2 in ECB my total was $18.85 which is a savings of 40%
I then went back to get another fancier Crayola item. It was a little more than the $3.12 I needed, but it will be a nice little gift for Christmas stocking or Easter basket (yes, I do think that far ahead.) So, my retail was 5.99. I turned in my $2 ECB I had just received making the final price 3.99 which is a savings of 34%. BUT, then I got my $5 in RR for the Crayola items which means they paid me about $1.

Dollar General
I hadn't made Dollar General a regular coupon stop before, but they officially take internet coupons now, so that might change. Especially so, since I found www.sarahsdeals.net which does coupon matching for Dollar General.
Here's what I got:
Wisk $3
$1/1 coupon here
$2 each
All Detergent OxiActive 60oz $3
$1/1 All Oxi Printable Coupon here
$2 each
Malt O Meal Bagged Cereal 10.5-14oz 2/$3
$1/2 12.5oz+ Malt O Meal Printable Coupon here
2/$2
Full price would have been $29. I paid $15 after sales and coupons which is about a 50% savings. I'm impressed.

New Feebie Site
I found out about a site called FreebieShark.com. They list at least one thing free everyday. There's a wide variety. Some things are practical like a toothpaste sample while some are not so necessary like a bird sticker. But FREE is FREE! You can also Like them on Facebook.
