apparently, target has changed the rules for price matching :(
i think the leapfrog catepillar pushed 'em over the edge! read the forum at HCW.

pepsi, pineapples, and winetags

took a trip to harris teeter in davidson this morning.
here's some valuable info for you!

pepsi 12 packs bogof at davidson ($3)
pepsi 4/$10 in mooresville ($2.50)

today, harris teeter had the del monte gold fresh pineapple.
75¢/1 coupons for these come out now and then.
in the past, the fresh pineapples were dole brand.

finally, keep your eyes peeled for coupons and special offers with the holidays coming.
i found "$1.25/any 3" coupons for jello/baker's chocolate/cream cheese (near the gladware display close to the wine), and lots of wine tags with coupons for nuts, cheese, shrimp, beef, and turkey. most say "no wine purchase necessary"!

happy shopping :)

gifts that give more

global girlfriend is a part of greatergood.com, a wonderful shopping choice you can make this holiday season.
there are other areas too...
the hunger site
the literacy site
the breast cancer site
the child health site
the animal rescue site
and more...

The GreaterGood Network of websites offer the public a unique opportunity to support causes they care about at no cost to them.

Each person's daily click on the Click To Give™ sites displays sponsor advertising. One hundred percent (100%) of sponsor advertising is paid as a royalty to charity through the non-profit, tax-exempt GreaterGood.org.

Supporters can also contribute directly to charity by purchasing Gifts that Give More™, where one hundred percent (100%) of their donation is given to charity, or by purchasing one of the 4500+ products that we carry, including jewelry, apparel, and gifts. There is a charity royalty of from 5-30% paid on every item purchased from any of the GreaterGood Network's online stores.

In fiscal year 2007, the GreaterGood Network gave over $1.7 million to charity, nearly 7 times our after-tax profit.

take a look around for some interesting gifts (many inexpensive!) for yourself or those you love. look for some trendy teen items. and feel good about shopping. i ordered some things from greater good last year and they were all wonderful. and excellent customer service too.


walmart candles and cantaloupes

walmart currently has a big display of glade candles on rollback for $2.25.
i really like these little candles. they burn about 3 hours, have a wonderful smell, and i feel like they are really safe because you burn them in the tin holder.
open up those little tin candle holders and you may find inside a $1.50/1 coupon!
this coupon can be used on the tin or the refills.
or go here to print some coupons.
(you have to fill in your address below the coupons)
buy 3 and submit for the SC johnson $5 rebate!
you can do this rebate 3 times before 7/15/2010.

also kim emailed me and said she found some nice cantaloupes for 98¢.
i'm gonna have to go back...
thanks kim!

oh, and butter is still $1.50 :)

no spend challenge final thoughts

we'll we didn't quite make it a whole month.
28 days, i think.
we spent about $42 a week on milk and necessities.
and $25 on gas per week.

here are top ten things i learned...

1-starbucks is about more than a cup of coffee.
it's relationships, it's memories.
for my DH and my DD, this is "their thing". they get all happy when walking around target with that warm cup o' joe. i still remember my daddy taking me to the candy counter when i was a little girl. those few ounces of chocolates with white sprinkles in that paper bag. i'm tearing up. okay, let's move on.

2-$3 wine from walmart is excellent.

3-eating food already made is so boring. we were eating a lot of meals like chicken, rice, frozen vegetable. beef, mac and cheese, and canned vegetable. i think from now on, i'm going to concentrate on stockpiling ingredients, and not prepared food.
of course, picky eater DS loved it!

4-i need to cook for my sanity. chopping, stirring, researching recipes, trying new stuff, that's what i love. that's who i am.

5-too much processed food (and lets face it, that's mostly what you can stockpile) can mess up your digestive system. i'll just leave it at that.

6-I DO NOT like ragu pasta sauce, marie callendar's frozen meals, canned biscuits, bagged iceburg lettuce, most frozen vegetable medleys, or sunny delight smoothie juice. in other words, just cause it's free, don't feel like you HAVE to bring it home.

7-if you really want to show me some love, gift me with a piece of fresh produce.

8-it's nice to know that it can be done if you have to. that the supplies are there if you can't afford to go shopping or if you are sick or something.

9-DH was proud of me/us, but also annoyed that i asked him everyday "did you spend any money?"

10-i don't think i'll be having another
"no spend month" for a while.
at least not on purpose.
