September 2009

I went to Walmart today and I confirmed all of the deals I have listed here. Be sure to check it again. Some prices have changed and some items have been removed.

Target is now giving a 5c credit for each reusable bag you use. They don’t care where the bag came from or whose logo is on it.

My friend went to our local Target here in Birmingham, AL and confirmed that they are now doing this!

Be sure to bring your bags in and ask about the credit!

I don’t usually post clearance finds because they vary so much from store to store, but here are some deals you might just be able to find!

Cottonelle 4 pack is on clearance for $2.17 but people are reporting that it is ringing up 82c!

Domino’s sugar is on clearance for 80c for the 5 lb bag and 37c for the 1 lb bag.

EPT tests are on clearance for $3.29.

7th Generation laundry soap is $2.19.

Febreze Candles are $1.79.

Be sure to look for more items with the orange clearance tags!

I am already halfway to my Amazon Christmas goal! I have $100 out of my $200 goal saved!

Here’s the details:

I am really trying to scale back on Christmas this year. Last year I spent about $400 on toys for the kids that they barely play with. Now that we are trying to make our Disney trip a yearly ordeal, I want to save money where we can. So this year, we are having an Amazon Christmas!

One of the greatest ways I am earning gift cards to Amazon is by using Swagbucks. I’ve already snagged Toy Story Mania and Wii Sports Resorts for free. Now I will just stockpile money in my Amazon account in preparation for their holiday sales. Last year, starting right after Thanksgiving, Amazon had amazing sales on toys and games. I got so many great deals from there. This year, I want all of their Christmas to come from there and be free!

So here is how I am doing it… And you can do it too!

Swagbucks is a search engine that rewards you Swagbucks when you use it. You randomly win anywhere from 1 to 5 Swagbucks. 45 Swagbucks equals a $5 gift card to Amazon. (There are other prizes, including cash and gear, but Amazon.com is my favorite and by far the best deal.) You get 3 Swagbucks automatically when you sign up.

It originally took me about 10 days to earn a $5 Amazon gift card. But here’s something neat… for each person you refer, you earn what they earn! When you follow this link and sign up under me, when you win $1, I win $1! (And you will win $1 each time someone signs up under you and wins). I am now winning enough Swagbucks to get a $5 Amazon gift card every day! This is going to make for a lot of great, cheap Christmas presents. Thanks everyone for following my links!

Everybody loves free lunch! And, when you enter their sweepstakes, you could win free LEAN CUISINE entrees for a week!

It’s an incredible easy sign up. Won’t take more then 5 seconds!

Don’t forget to return every week to enter for your chance to win a weekly prize! The sweepstakes ends October 29—so make sure you get your entries in weekly!
