But since moving here, with no other choice, I've learned to love them. They're still not my number one store, but there are bargains to be found there! :o)jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-72992648079360488572011-02-14T11:13:56.122-05:002011-02-14T11:13:56.122-05:00I've heard of that Food Lion place.

Sometimes I buy something, like toothpaste, I already have plenty of toothpaste, but sometimes, with the coupons and money back, it becomes a deal for me, so I go ahead and get it, then I will donate it to homeless shelter. I paid nothing for it, so it's not hurting me, and I am helping someone out. Everyone wins! :o)<br /><br /> I don't see how that guy on the extreme coupon show can eat all that salad dressing before the expiration date, plus keeping it in the garage is not the best place with temps going back and forth between hot and cold. People have to figure out how much to buy so that it gets used/eaten before it spoiled, and remember that it will go on sale again later.<br /><br />Good for you getting the free razor! I think I got the same one! :o)jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-19451882565766835352011-02-13T13:50:56.839-05:002011-02-13T13:50:56.839-05:00Jenny, I do agree with you ..

They are not using coupon. <br /><br />Extreme Coupon TV show made me wonder how can they keep TON of stuff and food. Shave razor. I purchased almost 10 dollars for shaven for my husband. I got free instead of spent on 9.59 dollars something. My hubby say What? it is FREE?

LOL Sylvia (5) wanted to help me cut coupons once, so I showed her what to do, and when I checked on her progress, she cut off all the upc codes!! Agh!

Sometimes it's just the little things that can make a big difference!<br /><br />Deaf Pixie-- There are many, probably hundreds, of different coupon websites out there. I have been to the one you linked to before, but her site doesn't fit my needs like some others do. we have always been frugal while shopping, going to thrift stores or recycling something into something else, the coupons just take us another step further!<br /><br />GrannyKaren-- No Dollar Tree around here, dang it! There's one in the bigger town next over, but I can't run down there just for the paper. Luckily for me, I get coupons from family and friends, along with the 2 papers I usually buy for myself. The most I ever bought was 5 papers!! I needed 5 of the same coupon to get 5 bottles of laundry soap for free!jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-29061728682271737532011-02-07T09:23:52.096-05:002011-02-07T09:23:52.096-05:00Love those deals!!!

I wanted every single thing I bought to have a coupon and you can find a lot of coupons online and even on Facebook, too! Red Baron has a FB account and if you 'like' them, enter their sweepstakes and "losers" get a coupon. The only items I didn't have coupons for were the cookies and the TGIF appetizer, but they were free through the deal, so I was ok with that.<br /><br />I really am grateful to my stepmom for showing me how to do this-- it's really been a lifesaver for us!jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772053505930801670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471031006553442541.post-25378660467177238872011-02-06T00:33:18.213-05:002011-02-06T00:33:18.213-05:00Wow, you really did great.
