I put up the new auction for Coupons for Charity here. Included in the P&G inserts is the $2 off Pampers wipes coupons, which probably means free wipes. Every store–Target, Walmart, Superfresh, Acme….they’ve all been putting the wipes on sale for $1.99. Bid now! Bid high–let’s end this month’s auctions with a bang for K’s birthday (yesterday).
CVS flu shot deal & tomorrow’s Coupons for Charity
August 29, 2010 by · Leave a Comment
Starting today, this week’s CVS ad has buy $30 worth of P&G products, get a free flu shot. I’m pretty excited about it, because my insurance never covers flu shots and every year I pay out of pocket. Last year they were $25 at Walgreen’s. But there was a P&G coupon insert in today’s paper, so I’m confident on getting my out of pocket total down, much below $30. To me this is a great deal, as I had planned on shelling out $25 for a flu shot anyway, so the P&G products are just a bonus! And if you get one, as at the pharmacy for your special coupon booklet, as advertised in the ad.
Tomorrow I plan on posting another Coupons for Charity ebay listing. Problem is, State Road is closed tomorrow. Not sure I’ll be able to get my coupons. So if it’s not up tomorrow, it will be on Tuesday.
Support the local merchants!

Locally owned, small businesses still have great deals. The Lighthouse in Hockessin, DE has been a favorite stop for us as we do our home renovations. They have every type of lighting fixture imaginable, and what they don’t have they can usually order. We got a deal there last weekend with Hinkley lights, 50% off the suggested retail. And ask them, some items are buy 4 items, get 50% off your purchase. Overall, yes, their prices are a bit higher than a big box store. But with 50% off, it’s a better deal, plus you have a much better selection. Big box stores cater to the masses, I want nice, original things in my home!
Acme or Superfresh this week?

I’d say either is good. Neither has any spectacular freebies or anything, but both have decent deals.
I went to Acme this morning because it was closest. The Grande chips are $1.74 and the 6/27 paper had $1/1s in it. I got 5 bags because I had 5 coupons and I’m way into making salsa this summer and the chips go quickly! And as one of my readers pointed out, they only have 3-4 ingredients which I like!
I scored free boneless porkchops. I frequently buy the expired meat with the coupons stuck to it. The bigger packs of the chops are about $6 and they are bogo, and they had $3 coupons on them, so Free! Getting ready to vac seal them right now.
Check your avenu because I got $1 off plastic wrap and it’s on sale for $2, bigger roll too. Danimals are on sale for $2 and there are $1 coupons out. Small packs of store brand baby wipes were $0.42, which works out to about a penny per wipe which is my stock up price.
Ok, off to vac seal this meat and then to growers market.
Look for orange coupon booklet when you’re there.
