I am very axcited about some of the coupons in today's paper (3/13/11) one of them is the .50/1 Maruchan Yakisoba coupon. If they have it at Wal-Mart like they have in the past for .50, you can land some free noodles! I love these, the rest of my family... Not so much. But hey, more for me.
The $1/1 New Hidden Family Farmhouse Originals dressing is getting mme excited too, I haven't tried them yet, but they look really yummy. Anne it doesn't expire till may, so keep your eyes open for a le on that, especially since it doesn't specify a size.
I don't have a cat or a dog, so I am nit sure how much the food is, but ther is a high value coupon for the, I think it is new, Purina One beyOnd dry dog or cat food... $3/1 any size any variety of beyOnd dry dog food, and $3/1 any size any variety of beyOnd dry cat food! If they are free or even close to free, I think I will grab some and donate it to my local animal shelter.
There are even a few Target coupons, and as long as your store allows you to stack a store coupon with a manufacturers coupon, you
should be able to get a great deal on CoverGirl cosmetics items, Olay Pro-X or Regenerist, and Herbal Essence or Pantene.
And lastly, the B1G1 Herbal Essence or Aussie product/Styler.
Keep your eyes open for sales to match these coupons in the next few month and you should get great savings!!!
You can go to Grocery Smarts to watch your favorite store for the best sales each week!

Frugal or Fraudulent?
Is that "deal" you found worth your integrity?
Wal-Mart just changed their coupon policy a few week ago, when I first read it I was so excited that I would be able to make sure and get my overage every time and that I wouldn't have to worry about them freaking out over my coupons. Them I thought, How many people are going to take advantage of this?
Maybe this new coupon policy won't be the best thing...
I recently heard if a guy who went to Wal-Mart and got over 90 travel size packs of Purex 3-in-1 laundry sheets, he had a $3.00 off coupon for each one... He had over $150.00 in overage... Nothing to attach it to, he just wanted the cash back. The cashier and the customer service manager were rude in addressing the issue, while they didn't have a rite to treat the man the way he was treated, you can totally see where they were coming from.
This new policy just reminds me of how careful we need to be when being thrifty, frugal and doing our best to stay afloat in this crazy economy. I am passionate about coupons and they have allowed my family to become more self-reliant and take control of our finances as well as our lives. But it makes me d when people take advantage of it, like this man clearly did, in my opinion.
There are fraudulent coupons all over the place, and because of these coupons a lot of stores will no longer accept printed coupons, even when they are legitimate, because they won't be re-imbursed for them, and the stokers cannot sit there and look at every single printer generated coupon to see if it real, so they simply won't take them anymore.
I can't help but feel that it is just a natter of time until one of three things happens if people keep abusing Wal-Mart's new policy.
1) Companies will start limiting the price and/or quantity on every single coupon they print, resulting absolutely no chance for overage ever, and very few deals like we have all been able to get before.
2) Wal-Mart will change their coupon policy back to what it was.
3) Many different stores will notice, and a lot of different stores may stop allowing overage all-together.
While none of these scenarios is favorable for any of us shoppers, the companies involved will have just reason to do so.
Now I ask again, are these deals worth your integrity? Ask yourself if the deal you just found is too good to be true, if it sounds like it might be, then it probably is.
In our endless efforts to stay on top of our bills and our finances, and keep our families lifestyles the best they can be, we need to strive to keep our integrity in tact. I started coupling because we needed the extra money.... But I would never think about robbing a bank or stealing from the store to save money. When you use a fraudulent coupon, you are stealing. Plain and simple. And people abuse the overage and other policies for whatever reason, you may be getting a great deal on something, but think about the potential repercussions, they could affect everyone.
