I went to the IGA today and purchased: 3 Ragu Spaghetti Sauces, 2 Jif Peanut Butter, 2 packages of split chicken breasts, 2 Borden Cheese Singles, 2 packaged of sliced cooked ham, 6 Yoplait yogurts, 1 Nature Made Vitamin C, 2 Roma tomatoes, 1 cucumber, 1 package of ground beef, 6 Lean Cuisine, 2 packages of American Blend salads. I saved $18.13 and had 2 coupons totaling $1.40, I paid $59.96 for 30 items.

Hi, can someone please explain how those coupons work that say for example 1.00 off fruit if you buy two cereals? Can you use one for the fruit and one for each cereal or is that pushing it?? Thanks, Sharon

wifeandkids: I signed up for that calendar last year as well and never received it. I forgot all about it until you mentioned it. I wonder if they ran out and that is why we never got one.

I had a question I was hoping someone could help me with - I was under the impression that even if a coupon had a Rite-Aid, Walgreens or some other retailer's logo on it, as long as it said Manufacturers Coupon on it, it could be used anywhere - I thought they just put their logos on these coupons because they wanted to get you to use it at their store.

I was just at Target where I was trying to stack a Rite-Aid Manufacturers Coupon with a Target coupon, but it wouldn't scan for them. Even though it visually looked like a Rite-Aid coupon, it clearly had the words "Manufacturer Coupon" on it. It wasn't until they read the fine print on the bottom that stated, "Good only at Rite-Aid Pharmacies," etc. that we knew why it wasn't scanning for them.

Could someone help clarify this for me - how can a coupon be both a manufacturer coupon, yet a store coupon at the same time?

...and 4 loves of french bread.

Just got back from Lowe's Foods. 4 packs of center cut chops, 2 packs of Oscar Meyer turkey sandwich meat, 6 packs of shredded cheese, 3 cans of biscuits, 4 packs of bacon, 1 purell that was on clearance and 2 packs of OM bologna. OOP $43...saved $44. That was great considering I only used 2 coupons! That's a lot of meat, I think for that amount of money.

The last ibotta receipt I submitted was accepted quickly but it took a day for the money to show in my account, smolder.

I just submitted a receipt to Ibotta and got confirmation almost immediately that I was credited for the purchase. However the money I just earned is not being added to my total earned. It shows up as earned in the itemized list, but is not included in the total. Anyone else have this happen? I'm wondering if it just needs time to register and will be totaled later or if I need to contact them about it.

jcook2 - sounds like you would do well bringing your extras/unwanted coupons to a local coupon swap! Faye has a post here on the blog with all the upcoming ones. They're a great way to get rid of the coupons you don't need/want, and to pick up some that you do! :)

The penzies thing worked earlier but doesn't seem to be now.

I got a certificate for 40 bonus box tops at Harris Teeter this morning. My children are not school age...would anyone want it? Email me at buffhome2@ymail.com with your address and I will drop it in the mail to you.

Nakabi and watchhillgirl,

I believe I signed in as a guest and did it. This is what I did

You need to go to checkout and sign in as a guest.

After that enter coupon code: 42730C it will then place the item in your cart and it will show shipping as $7.95, but just place the order and it will show $0.00. NO Credit card is required. #42370 - Cumin Ground .9 oz. 1/4 cup jar

I got some rotator shelfs from shelfreliance.com in Nov for 50% off and free shipping. Don't know how often they run this special, but they are very sturdy and should last forever. I will keep an eye out for another sale.

Smoked salmon sold in NC recalled because of possible Listeria contamination. See the following for the specific brands that have been recalled:

http://dailysavings.allyou.com/2013/01/11/recall-alert-smoked-salmon-may-be-contaminated-with-listeria/

Never tried the dial situation before but it should work. One way to be sure would be to just buy the 4 on your rain check after your other order has been completed.

scoutmom, I tried too, and it wants to charge me for the freight. am I doing something wrong?

scountmom-I just tried to order some and it asked for CC info....

swag code on the blog. worth 4. 1 hour left. *hint..the first name of the person who wrote the book Muder on the Orient Express"

If you want any of these coupons, contact me at jrcook@embarqmail.com and send me your address. I'll be glad to mail them to you. Have a great weeekend!

Don't forget, Whole Foods has ground beef on sale today only for $3.49 a pound.

Does anyone have a discount code for N & O renewals? Thank you and have a great weekend!

Kroger has Good n' Natural bars. I tried them awhile ago and they were HORRIBLE!

With all the talk of organizing our stash, I decided to organize mine. I tried the 12 pack soda box that I think was on the blog yesterday and it works great for all the chicken noodle soup that I bought on sale last week. Thanks for the suggestion!

Also has anyone seen the Walmart commercial about saving over 13% compared to Harris Teeter? Certaninly not during Super Doubles!

Coupon for a Free duncan hines frosting creations flavor packet with the purchase of a Duncan Hines frosting creations starter. Coupon is on their Facebook page here:

https://www.facebook.com/DuncanHines

Someone was talking about Penzies spices the other day on here. I have never ordered from them and ran a search and found a code for a free 1/4 jar of India Ground Cumin (even the shipping adjusts to zero and you do not have to enter a credit card. The code is 42730C.

Mucinex has a $2 coupon on their Facebook page. I have not tried it but since it is a brick coupon you can probably print 2.

Sorry for all the posts this morning, but just wanted to pass on another great offer to everyone that will be expiring soon - I was e-mailed this offer by Sbarro, and the coupon had my name on it, so didn't realize they were also offering it on their Facebook page to everyone:

If you go to Sbarro's Facebook page, "like" them, and then click on the tab for Free Skinny Slice, you'll be able to print a coupon out for a FREE slice of their new Skinny Slice pizza on Tuesday, January 15. This is at participating locations only, so make sure to go to http://www.sbarro.com/participating_eateries/ to find one near you. Enjoy!

Thanks DianeNC!

Just a reminder of the $5.00 coupon Ruckus Pizza is currently offering (expires January 31) for use at either their Cary, Morrisville, or Raleigh locations. Just go to http://ruckuspizza.com/5-coupon/ fill in your name and e-mail address, and they'll e-mail you a coupon to print out. (One-time use only.)

kat08858 - Target not only carries those Good 'n Natural bars, but currently has a $1.00 Target coupon for a box of them on their website that you can stack with the manufacturer coupon we received. Here ya go: coupons.target.com

I have a HT raincheck for .97 dial pump soap (limit 2.) If I got the Saturday evic .97 dial pump soap (limit 2) and I buy 4 and use the raincheck for 2 of them, will the other two ring up correctly at the evic price? Has anyone ever tried this? I have the 2.00/4 Q that I'm trying to use.

momboozer, did you ever get a decent price for the N&O subscription? In last Sunday's paper from the store, there was a flyer with some very good prices. I got the 52 weekly one for a little less than $100. The Sun. only was about $65 for 52 wks. The code is SCPLUS. Hope this helps!

Packy, I really like those also.

jdouglas, I think those ones on canorganizer are cardboard and I am not sure they are preassembled. But they look like they would be pretty good. There are others out there (although more expensive) that are plastic or metal. I even saw one that was one long one with adjustable dividers to account for different size cans.

Did anyone receive the Roadsides in Bloom calendar from W. Virginia that we could sign up for late last year?

scoutmom, I was the one asking and thanks for the link. I really like those!!! It wouldn't take many to organize my pantry as it can hold up to 18 cans! Thanks!

Thanks for canorganizer link, scoutmom. I'm more interested in ready made ones. Very useful!

I am very blessed to have a large, double door pantry in my little rental house, with lots of floor space. I've been using some kids' toy storage bins on wheels that I got at Target (on a great sale of course). The wheels make it so easy to pull out, because they get really heavy with all the cans. It's not a perfect solution because it's hard to get to the bottom of the bin, but it's way better than the can avalanches I used to have.

Keep an eye on the discount section in Foodlion if you have fuzzy friends. FLion cat food was marked down to $.22/can. I received a $.25 credit for each can after purchase with the FL brand promotion. Good deal!

Someone asked the other day about can storage. I do stack mine but it got me thinking about efficient use of space. I did a quick search for can storage rack and there are tons of sites/alternatives out there. Here are a couple (I need to look into this more as I have a very small house): http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/2009/02/16/build-your-own-can-rotating-rack/

They had a link to this site:

http://www.canorganizer.com/

The Clinton and Roseboro NC Piggly Wiggly has boneless pork loins for 1.89lb. The one I got was the smithfield brand!

Riteaid question: When they have a buy 30 get 10.00 up reward promotion does the whole 30 have to be spent in the same transaction or does it keep count over multiple transacations?

thanks all! Happy Friday :)

CVS also carries the Good n' Natural bars, and I think either Walgreens or Rite Aid also carries them. I know I picked up some at CVS Sunday.

Harris Teeter carries the Good n' Natural bars. I picked one up from the Cary store on Tryon Rd.

Has anyone found a store that carries the 'Good n' Natural' bar from this past weeks insert?

Thanks Southern by choice
