Pom responded with “In-store promotions are when you see […]
Not a deal: The $290 paper lunch bag
I pack a lot of lunches now that the three kids are back in school. While they have lunchboxes, the younger ones also bring something small for snacktime in a paper bag each day. I like to stock up on brown paper lunch sacks anytime the 100-count multipacks on sale for a dollar or two. […]

New coupon restriction: Coupon cannot be used during a sale!
Well, this is new. Jewel-Osco has Pom Wonderful pomegranate juice on sale this week, and naturally, many couponers are inclined to use a coupon to make the price even better. Coupons.com has some printable coupons available, and the 6/24 SS insert also has a $1 coupon. But guess what? Shoppers trying to use these coupons […]
The shrinking Suave deodorant – now 47% smaller!
CVS has Suave deodorant on sale for a dollar this week, and with the .75 coupon from the 7/29 RP, it’s only a quarter after the coupon. Good thing, too, because when I bought some and went to put it away, I still had some Suave deodorant on the shelf from the last time it […]
