Deals, Coupons & Freebies From a Reluctant Couponer
Sorry for the lack of posts today! I finally returned to college after a 10 year hiatus (yikes!) If everything goes well, I should graduate in May with a BA in Communication!
P.S. Tonight I was the oldest person in my class! Ack! I realized that when I was a freshman in college, these kids were in diapers! :)
Not only did P&G spoil us by giving us a killer coupon insert in yesterday’s paper but they are also giving up a lot of coupons and free samples on their website. The only bummer is that these coupons and free samples will be snail mailed to you…but still valuable of course!

Staples has the Hammermill 500ct Reams of paper for $4.99 with a $4.49 Easy Rebate making it only .50 after rebate. BUTTTTT, if you picked up yesterday’s paper you would’ve seen a $2/1 Hammermill coupon in the Smart Source Insert. After coupon and rebate this turns out to be a MoneyMaker!

I would do this Walgreens shopping trip in two transactions, so you have a minimal Out of Pocket Expense.

Total Transaction #2 = $11.49 – $10 Register Rewards earned from Transaction #1 = Total OOP: $1.49
Total OOP for Both Transactions: $11.49 + $12.99 Register Rewards = +1.50 MoneyMaker!

Click here and then click on the “Switch to Nutrish” at the bottom of the page to sign up for a FREE Sample of Rachel Ray Nutrish Dog Food! I admit, at first when I realized that Rachel Ray actually had a line of dog food…I was grossed out..but then I thought..hmmm…from a dog’s perspective I bet the food is pretty darn good! Yummo! (*rolls eyes at self)
I was thinking about skipping Rite Aid this week, because I didn’t have any leftover Up Rewards from last week’s trip..but this list of freebies has got me reconsidering!
