~ HAPPY NEW YEAR~
I took a ridiculously long break from couponing last year. Sad to say I was a little burned out, not on the savings but on the work that goes behind every penny saved. When my husband ask me to start couponing again, I knew it was time to step back into the crazy coupon world.
With all the negative hype around the extreme couponing showing that have been on tv. I had heard the stores have tightened their coupon policies and really restricted how coupons can be used but I decided it was time to relearn all the store policies and all the new rules that have came about over the last year.
So here is a few deals from this week:
Walgreen's: Buy 2 Kids Triaminc (2/$10) get a $5RR
I paired this deal with (2) $3 off 1 coupons
$10 -(2) $3coupons= $4 received a $5RR (made $2 off this deal)
I did this deal twice, so I have $10 in Register Rewards to use
Got to L.O.V.E. Target
I love the after Christmas sale at Target. We went out of town this year for Christmas and lucky for me we took two vehicles; my first stop back in town on the 26th was to Target when every thing went 50% off. I was actually shocked at how much they had left; besides all the artificial trees being gone the Christmas aisles looked partically untouched.
Today I had to run over to Target to return some items and decided to check the Christmas clearance because I knew it was finally 90% off, there was still many item left.
I bought two of these bulb pots when they were 50% off last week but I was so excited to find about 10 on an endcap so two more for work. These little beauties help me get through the winter gloom.
Original Price: $9.99
Sales price: $2.98
More Target deals:

Stopped by my favorite thrift store and they had all Christmas items 75% off

Baby steps, baby steps. Start coupon, ever penny saved adds up and by the end of the year you will be surprised how much you have saved!
***Happy 2012***
