Yeah!! Today was a great day. I finally made it out to work some deals AND everything I was looking for was in stock~someone pinch me - I think I'm dreaming!

17 Chat about it:
Hi ..I love your blog. It is helping me so much as I am learning how to "make a deal" Quick question ..where did you find all of the chip Q's ?( see I am learning-ha)
Thanks so much
Carlie, I made it out to the new walgreens today to have some pictures developed. I happened to be the first customer in the photo lab and the manager came up and gave me a gift bag! It is filled with things like chapstick, spray hand sanitizer, photo albums, frames, a $10 giftcard and a one time use camera among other things! I was so surprised! That made my day!
OMG did you make the kids count out 120 bags of chips? and how come you weren't able to use the banana boat Q? and the KY $3/1 deal was AWESOME if they were only 1.67!!!
Frogfaith - glad it's been helpful. Chip Qs - well I got one in my yahoo coupon exchange group and noticed it would be a great deal. So I went on ebay and bought 30 Qs for 4.00. :) Not bad huh? That's how I got the KY Qs too.
Brooks - that's so cool! I was there and they couldn't get my 5/20 to work. they had never seen one before. I had to school them on it. ~ LoL!!
Lindsay - for some reason I couldn't find my silly Q - but that's Ok. I came out good anyway. Oh - and those KYs are hardly ever in stock I was luck to find 8 today. :) Made for a great overage!
What a combination - chips, KY and sunglasses. That cashier must have thought - my goodness what must go on in that house!
Great deals! The cashiers at my Walmart have had to manually override coupons for me as well. I think once you get past 7 coupons (of the same type) it starts beeping at you. Fun times ;)
By the way Christi, I am laughing out loud at your comment!
You did do awesome!! Woot Woot to you :-)
OK, I'm tooootally gonna get some of those chip coupons!!! And, doesn't it feel good when everything is in stock! It's like all of our planning is working for us!
Amazing week girlie!
OK - I just bought 30 coupons!!! Only the ones I got were for $.55 off 2 which is still great and the seller was offering free shipping if you bought $3 worth (seller kkswigs)! Thanks for sharing this - I think this is an awesome deal!
Yeah, yeah ... you're awesome. You don't have to brag! (hee, hee) Thanks for coming over tonight and helping me out with those ladies and thanks for the extra stuff.
And how dare you say, you never get any comments. Um ... hello!
Wow! 120 bags of chips? That poor cashier!
oh my, that's alot of chips. I think I need to find some of those coupons because we go through alot of them.
I have a question, it has nothing to do with this particular post.. BUT what size freezer do you have?? I remember a while back when you bought a ton of Eggos I was thinking "Where is she going to put all of that?!"
After reading this post I had to get a few of those coupons. Dh takes these bags in his lunch so this is really a big money saver for me. Thanks so much for pointing it out.
I have seen that you and Andrea have a ton of the same coup. Do you also purchase them? Do you get a good deal?
Your deals never cease to amaze me!
Thanks for your post over at my blog!

Victoria - to answer your question, yes. I have a big freezer. It's a 25 cubic feet upright. And it's packed out right now. One day I'll take a picture of it for ya'll! :)
I have a question after getting 4 bags of chips at 33 cents how is that price compared to getting a bigger bag of chips? I will be using my measly 2 coupons today but maybe I can find some more somewhere else. My kids act like chips are the next candy as I won't spend the money on chips and snacks unless it's reasonable.
I missed the eggo post I might have to go back and try to find that one. I have since received a waffle maker but eggo's are loved here as well with the four kids.
I am glad that I came by to see your blog!
Have a great day:)

I had to share. I had asked how you got the coupon deal with the chips..you told me so I went on Ebay and bought 20...well my Walmart does not carry the small bags..so tonight driving by my Harps I asked my husband to pull in and they had them..and they DOUBLE UP to .60 ..so they only double two like Q's at a shot and I bought 10 bags and paid .65cents.
But If we go as a family and only buy 4 bags at a trip through the register they will be FREE! Too fun, huh? Thanks for your blog I love it!
