This week...

I know Harris Teeter in Morehead City is super doubling again this week. I haven't been since the new sales started so I was wondering if anyone has gotten any great deals at Harris Teeter?! Actually if you have found a good deal anywhere let's hear about it! Find a great deal or hear of one? comment below. :)

Are you couponing yet?!?!

It's really hard for me to resist the temptation to say "there's a coupon for that!" when I see someone if the grocery store with a cart full of stuff. If you aren't couponing by now, why?!?! What are you waiting for? Here's an example of why I wonder why....
Total Retail: $156.52
Total out of pocket: $42.36

Here's what I got...
4 cans of Maxwell House coffee
1 box Capri Suns
2 boxes Pop Tarts
2 Sliced Kraft Cheese
2 Bags Shredded Cheese
1 block Kraft Cheese
2 tubes Oral-B Kid Toothpaste
1 Secret Deoderant
1 Satin Care shaving cream
2 boxes Tampax
2 jumbo packs Huggies
2 New York Strip Steaks
1 bag of Kale
1 bag of zuccini and squash each
1 bag of celery
1 Sunny-D drink
2 Tropicana OJ
2 Baily's coffee creamer

Getting started is the hardest part. Saving tons of money is easy!!!

This week at HT

The Harris Teeter in Morehead City, NC is doing Super Doubles again this week. The ad isn't as good as last week but there are still some deals that can't be passed up!! I had a friend ask me about a new rule they have about only accepting 2 coupons per item per day.....so if you have 10 pasta coupons and want to use them all you would have to go 5 days in a row. That just isn't going to work for me! Soooo, I'm wondering if anyone has run into this new rule???!!! I just went yesterday to get the Green Giant frozen veggies that were on VIC for $1 each. I had 5 coupons for .60 off of 3 so I used all 5 of my coupons and walked away with a great deal on some frozen veggies.

Some Good Printables

Go to www.coupons.com and there are some really good printables especially since HT is doubling up to $1.98 starting tomorrow.
My favorites are...
$1 off Oreos
$1 off Velveeta cheese
$1.50 off Philedelphia Cooking Creme
$1 off Kraft Mac & Cheese (5 pack)
.75 off Miracle Whip

Print them soon. They won't last long!

Super Doubles Week Starts Feb 16

I needed a few staples last night so instead of going to Food Lion that's just a minute from my house I went to Harris Teeter instead. I wanted to check out the unadvertised deals since they are still tripling to .99 this week. I wasn't impressed with much. Seemed like the same stuff from last week was still on sale this week. Their boneless skinless chicken breast was a good deal for $2.49/lb. I think you can find it cheaper but since I need it now I went for it. There were several things I wanted/needed that I didn't have a coupon for but was on sale. Man, I have to admit that it was REALLY hard to buy that stuff without a coupon. Now, milk and bread are one thing without a coupon but ice cream and cheese are completely different! When you've gotten used to paying a fraction of the actual retail cost it's hard to pay full price. I have been spoiled rotten the past several weeks by saving so much money! So the good news is that next week starting Wednesday, Feb 16 starts Super Doubles Week again! They'll be doubling up to $1.98 and that makes me so happy.

Let's talk couponing

I've had so many people email, text and call me about couponing lately. I don't consider myself a pro by any means but I think a bunch of us together to talk about and share ideas would be pretty cool. Please leave a comment if you'd be interested in coming to something like that in the Eastern NC area.

New ads for Harris Teeter, Lowes Food and Food Lion are out now. Lowes Food has a great deal on sour cream, butter spread and colgate toothpaste...all a quarter or less!!
