You Might Be A Coupon Junkie...
if your purse has it's own filing system to keep
store ads and is big enough to hold your
coupon organizer.
I am so loving my new purse!
It's like half brief case and half purse in one.
Where have you been all my life, lol!
--------------------------------
Had to stop in Kroger today to get some milk.
Found three half gallons of apple juice
marked down to .79 cents each.
Need some 100% Vitamin C considering the time of year!
Then next stop was the bread mark down area.
I found Tony 5 loaves of MultiGrain Bread.
Originally $1.69 each marked down to .50 cents each.
Tony loves pistachios so I found them on sale
for $2.99 for 10 ounce bags.
Then I had $1.00 coupons making them $1.99 each.
At original price they would have been $5.00!!!
Will give these to him for his birthday.
Then I will also give him some
Pert (all in one shampoo, conditioner and body wash)
and Sure deodorant. Stopped in Walgreens again
today since I found more coupons!
After coupons and rebates I only paid .50 cents
for all 8 items!!! Woo Hoo!
--------------------------------
Wanted to show everyone my Mini Me coupon organizer
I was working on last night.
While I still have my huge coupon organizer
I now have a smaller one that I can constantly carry
in my purse. I got tired of being places without
my coupons and seeing mark downs I could have gotten.
And wanting to eat out and not having my fast food
coupons at hand. When you make one, or two in my case,
of these coupon organizers, be sure to put your name
or email or even your phone number in them.
I would hate to lose mine!! I used a free address
label I got in the mail to put inside them.
I found my Mini Me at the thrift store.
It's actually a small photo album with
fold out pages.
Sure it makes my purse a little bit heavier
than normal. I try to think of it as all
the money I am saving!!
It's a smaller book but the pages are compact.
Each one opens up to reveal more pockets.
I used regular masking tape to label the pockets
into different categories. I also used it to make
quick guide tabs on the sides.
I now have a section for all fast food or restraunt coupons.
Now I can immediately put receipts, rain checks
and rebate forms in my book and keep track of them.
I also made a section for coupons for
other stores.
And a place to keep grocery receipts.
You just never know what rebate/refund could be
coming up and you may have already bought that item
on a previous trip to the store.

Here is a cheap and helpful tip for those that
may have a septic tank.
They run ads on tv to put RidX in your system... it's nothing more than
bacteria.. yeast, if you will. So yogurt, cottage cheese, spoiled milk,
yeast... all good for your system. Just be sure it's in small enough chunks
or liquid so you don't clog up the lines trying to do good for the septic
tank.
And if you are on public sewerage, it doesn't her there either. The bacteria
works on the sludge & other build up in the pipelines between your house &
the sewer line... & the sewer line itself.
------------------------------------
I also have another tip for cottage cheese.
If you turn it upside down when putting it
in your refrigerator it will keep longer.
Just make sure it is sealed well!
Same goes for paint cans.
Just cover the opening with plastic wrap, and make sure the lid fits securely so the paint doesn't leak. Then turn the paint can upside down! This creates a tight seal, and keeps the paint fresh to use again.
--------------------------------------
There are times of the year when certain things
go on sale. This is a time to stock up when those
prices drop especially if you have coupons to match
up to those sales!
