Pampers Wipes on Sale-Amazon

This deal is all over the web, so might as well join in. Use Amazon Mom & Subscribe and Save, and the final cost comes down to less than $0.02 per wipe. Personally, I prefer to stay around $0.01 per wipe, but this is still a decent price. I mean, a tub of wipes around 70 ct is over $3 full price–so that’s over $0.04 per wipe.

Thirsties on Clearance at Amazon

I don’t do the whole cloth diaper thing, but I know that there are many moms who do. Amazon has some Thirsties on clearance to check out.

Fun & Frugal Weekends! April Fool’s weekend!

No jokes here, just some good options for your weekend.

First, Clipper Magazine is arriving in homes this week. Mine had coupons on the front for the new Japanese restaurant in Avondale, and inside there were two good coupons for TGIFriday’s–a $5 off $15 and a 20% off entire table.

Borders-no events listed.

Lowe’s-no events listed.

Barnes & Noble-events are very location specific. There are a few kids storytimes listed in our region.

Home Depot-first weekend of month=kids clinics. This month’s clinic is a planter basket.

Saturday-for Chester county and other southern counties it’s opening day for trout season. Licenses are relatively inexpensive and there are many places to borrow rods & tackle for free. And kids don’t need licenses. Can’t get much cheaper than that-especially if you catch your dinner.

Saturday-the CC Exton Library is having a class on photoshop. Call 610.280.2666 fmi.

The Kennett Library is having an Anime club at noon on Saturday. Ages 13+, call 444.2702 fmi.

Kennett Square if having First Friday. Ironically the theme is Beach Party, and the weather forecast is for snow. Ok, ok, I know that it’s probably not going to snow down here. If you come to town, please stop in at The Growing Tree. We have gotten in so many neat things this week for girls and for women. All the good names-Seven for all Mankind, Ann Taylor, Chip & Pepper, Laundry by Shelli Segal, Baby Lulu….all at half of retail price or less. There also will be various artists featured at the different stores and it’s just a great opportunity to stay local and have a good time.

If you feel like venturing up to Montgomery county, check out the smartmomsale. This is a big sale and it gets very crowded, get there early if you want good selection.

If you want Chinese take out, order online from PFChang’s, use the codes HOOPS and get 20% off your order-Sat/Sun/Mon.

And, like every other Saturday, join us at the Kennett McDonald’s at 8 am on Saturday if you want to learn the ins & outs of couponing. Lots of deals to discuss this week!

A few good deals at Staples this week

Did you know that Staples accepts manufacturers’ coupons? They do! And, you can stack them with other offers at Staples including sales, store coupons and rebates. I always check their ad online if I’m going to Superfresh, since it’s right next door.

This week, they have the 20-packs of Duracell batteries on sale for $12.99. Which isn’t that great of a price, actually, imo. But, you are able to get $12.99 back in Staples rewards. Limit two per customer. Use a $1 coupon from the 2/27 inserts or home mailers, pay only $11.99 and get the $12.99 back in rewards.

Staple rewards are only good in store, it’s not like getting a cash rebate back. But, I use it for ink/toner. There also are good deals on HP photo paper (only $1 after Staples Rewards), Hammermill CopyPlus paper (only $1 after Staples Rewards) and the colored paper.

If you’re going, collect up as many dead toner cartridges as you can find. You’ll get $2 for each one. Limit is 10 per customer, per month. That is the only thing I miss about working in a school-all the toner cartridges people used to give me to recycle!

That was easy!
