Nabisco coupons and $10 rebate!!

In my Kroger store, on a Nabisco display, I found a booklet entitled "'Keep the Jingle in your Holidays' Party Planner."
It has $40 worth of Nabisco coupons in the back, many holiday recipes and a few coupons off board games. There are also two mail in rebates for $10 when you buy 10 of the participating products. The rebates are the same, but are good at different times (one from 10/1-11/30, the other from 12/1-1/31) so you can theoretically do the rebate twice per household. The products are the same for the coupons and rebate:

1. Any Nabisco crackers (ritz, wheat thins, triscuts, honey maid grahams, sociables, better cheddars, chicken in a biskit)
2. Easy cheese
3. Planters nuts

You can also go to http://www.nabiscocrackers.com/ to get the rebate forms and a $1/2 cracker coupon. (click on "get started" then a little "coupon" icon will appear on the right).

Albertsons!! I made $5!!

Kraft is running a promotion right now where you get get a $20 MIR and $5 Catalina good toward next Albertson's purchase when you spend $25 in selected Kraft product. See a list here. Spend $25 before coupons and tax to get MIR and Catalina to print at register.

I got 8 great products and had $6 in MCs, so I made $5 after tax!!

Again, if you don't have a coupon stockpile, you can print some on coupons.com, such as the California Pizza Kitchen $1/1 MC. Any coupon you have makes you that amount in profit!!

Albertsons!! Cheap after catalina!!

Buy $30 of selected products, get $15 off next shopping trip. Look on the back page of the ad that runs until Tuesday to see which qualify. Get your total to $30 before tax and coupons, then 3 - $5 catalinas will print off at register.
If you don't already have a coupon stock pile, there are quite a few online coupons you can print on coupons.com:

All detergent - 2 for $7 (use $1/1 MC) (this one didn't come up for me, but the coupons change)
Betty crocker cake mix- $1 (use $.50/2 MC)
Betty crocker brownies - 2 for $4 (use $.75/2)
Chex mix - 3 for $5 (Use $.50/1 MC)
Yoplus - 2 for $5 (use $1/1 MC)
Honey Nut Cheerios - 2 for $4 (use $1/2 MC)
BC Fruit rollups - 2 for $4 (use $.50/2 MC)
...and more
You can print up to two coupons per computer. You do not have to buy 2 to get the 2 for $5 price, etc., so mix and match as you please.

If you bought 2 of each of these, and one more $1 item -your total comes to $30.33. Your coupon total is $8.25, so you pay $22.08 plus tax - then you will get $15 back to spend at Albertson's, so your out of pocket cost is $7.08 plus tax.

Staples make $13

If you have $300 you can part with today, you can get buy Quickbooks cash register for $299 with a $299 MIR on Staples.com. You will need to buy a coupon code for $30 off $150 on ejunkie.com for about $1.15. This coupon will pay for your tax and make you a profit of about $13. You can then turn around and sell it on ebay for about $20.

Kohl's Sale

Kohl's is having a great sale this weekend. You can get 20% off your $100 order, plus $10 Kohl's cash for every $50 spent (before tax and discount).
I did my transaction online and spent $125, getting $25 off, free shipping, and then I will get $20 back in Kohl's cash. So total OOP will be $80, plus about $6.50 in tax.

I also got a $10 voucher to spend in store (with no minimum purchase ) sent to my email on Wednesday. Did anyone else get this?

Food Storage

Albertson's is having a great sale this week. In their ad they have their Post cereals on sale for $1.57 each, I was going to top this with my $1/2 MFCs and get them for about $1 a piece, when I got to the store they are doing an extra deal where if you buy 5 you get a $5.00 coupon on your next purchase. You end up getting them with coupons for about 50 cents a piece.
Also in the ad they have a deal if you buy 10 Lipton pasta/rice side dishes (they're on sale 10/$10) you get $5 off rotisserie chicken. I talked to one of the employees and they said it would print out whether you bought the rotisserie chicken or not. I tried it and sure enough it worked. So their about 50 cent each as well. I thought these would be great to stock up on for food storage.

Riteaid

Just thought I'd let everyone know that Riteaid has a $5/$25 internet code to use online, that includes free shipping. just enter riteaid525 at checkout.

It's here!

I did my Reward-zone offers and today I got my $500 giftcard. Yeah! I think I spent about $50-$60 out of pocket on the offers.

RiteAid this week

If you have any Huggies MCs left, use them at Riteaid this week. Jumbo packs are on sale for $9.99 with a $2 SCR. Hopefully you kept a $5/$25 good through 6/30/09 and have some FAR items you still need to buy.

Target deals

"Bolt" DVD $15.99
use $5/1 MC here (must open in Firefox), then send in for $4 MIR here when you buy a box of pasta (Ronzoni whole wheat spaghetti is $1.32). Final price is $7.
You can also buy Lilo & Stitch for $15.99, and get $10 off your order for buying both. This makes both movies $6.50 a piece. Inside the Bolt DVD, you will find a code to enter online to receive a free Bolt plush for buying both.

Cheetos - I love the Cheetos Naturals which are usually $3.59 and hardly ever on sale. They are on sale this week for $3, plus there was a $0.55/1 MC in the paper a few weeks ago, then there is a target coupon for $1 off a Cheetos snack. The coupon didn't scan, but the clerk accepted it since the coupon is not specific to a certain kind of Cheetos product.

Kid's "Bandaid" brand bandaids $1.89
use $1/1 MC, plus $1/1 target coupon to make $0.11.

Lysol toilet bowl cleaner $1.89

Johnson & Johnson baby products at Walgreens

Until March 28th, Walgreens is giving a $10 RR for $25 worth of select J&J baby products. I plan to do the following:

2 boxes J&J nursing pads $4.99/ea
4 small tubes Desitin creme $4.49/ea

Use 2 printable $3/3 MC at J&J website. Spend $21.96 OOP, get $10 RR, so $11.96 for 6 products, or about $2 a piece. Great price for both of these items.

Walgreens Diaper deal 3 jumbo packs for $3.98

No longer a rumor, I went at midnight last night (to make sure still in stock). Buy 3 jumbo packs of Gentle Care Huggies for $10 a pack, get $10 RR. With 3 $5 off MCs, you should pay $16.98 OOP, then you get a $10 RR and send in for $3 rebate from Caregivers Marketplace. You can do this over and over again for as many coupons as you have, just don't use your RRs to pay for the next order or another one won't print out.
Also, if you printed your MCs on coupons.com before Friday, you can go back and print another two per computer!!

Diapers!!

I thought I would draw your attention to a great deal...at least the rumor of one. If you go here, you can print two $5/1 and two $3/1 Huggies coupon. Next week, Walgreens is rumored to have an awesome RR deal where you can get 3 jumbo packs for $5 after use of these coupons. Don't forget that you can send in for your Caregivers Marketplace rebate of $1 per pack. So get 3 packs for $2. I am going to try to stock up for the new babe, so I will be asking family to print their coupons if not using. Should be able to do this as many times as you have coupons for!!

Awesome sale!

Kohls is having an awesome sale. They're doing an additional 25% off their clearance that is already 60-80% off for Presidents day. Combine this with the scratch cards that you got in the mail for having a kohls card, or at the store. That's up to an additional 30% on top of the rest. Wow, never had all that together. I already have a bunch of stuff on hold. THe presidents sale starts tomorrow, the scratch cards start today.

It Worked!!

So a lot of you know I am big into my great deals and savings money, etc. A few months back I read a post on one of my money saving blogs about doing an online offer. You've seen them before...you get a free gift for signing up for so many offers. Anyway, this post had the inside scoop on the right way to do these offers so that you actually earn and receive your reward. I have always been very skeptical of these, and was still skeptical even after reading many testimonials from regular people who posted on this blog. So in September I decided to bite the bullet. I had to order 8 items (I ended up ordering 9, see below). By the time I sent back some of the free trial items, and had made sure I had no more obligations on the products I ordered, I had spent a total of $80.69 out of pocket. It took only a few weeks for the website to show my offers as qualifying, then I was able to print out and send in the redemption certificate. They received it October 24th and I received my reward in the mail TODAY!!

$500 of gas gift cards!!! A profit of $419.31.

So if anyone is interested, this is my personal testimonial. The site I used is:
consumer-rewardzone.com

As I said before, there is a right way to do it, so if you are interested, just email me and I will help you through it. Here are a couple of the most important things:

1. Set up a new email address.
2. Sign up for all your offers in one sitting. When you get to the website, click through to the last page, this is where you will have to do the most offers. Write down which four you want to do, and how much it will cost, then move backwards through the other two pages. Once you have planned all your offers, click through to the offer website, but don't start your order yet. First, go back to the front page of the website, and click "Check Gift Status." This will tell you whether consumer-rewardzone.com has recognized your offer as "pending." If so, go back to the offer website and place your order. If not, click through to the offer site again, and repeat checking the "Check Gift Status" for a pending order.
3. After you have placed all of your orders, set up a spreadsheet of all your offers, and the details on each, including what the return policy is, when you have to have the trial product returned by, etc.
4. When you send back a trial product, send it back with a proof of delivery. This costs $5.45 at the post office, but its worth it to make sure you don't get charged.
5. After a few weeks, go back to "Check Gift Status." You should see your offers have changed colors and now say "approved" by them. Once all of them are approved (I had to do another offer because one wasn't approving and I didn't want to take any chances, apparently this happens most of the time), it will tell you how to go to the redemption center to print your Certificate. You only have a few weeks between when you complete your offers and when you send in your certificate, so stay on top of it.
6. Make sure you send your certificate with a proof of delivery so you know they received it.
   My reward arrived in approximately 12 weeks.

On top of a huge profit, I got some diet products, panty hose and proactiv out of it!!
