Coupon Studies...

In two separate coupon studies, the following was revealed...

• Coupons, Inc. and Simmons Market Research showed that the number of Americans using online coupons grew from 26 million to 36 million from 2005 to 2008 (with almost half of those users age 22-44).
  
  
• Scarborough Research study revealed that internet coupon use increased 83 percent from 2005 to 2008 (and 11 percent of U.S. households were using them).

I have not seen a study for 2009, but don't you know that the numbers are even higher.

New To Savings With Sadie

Check out the "News Reel" I recently added on the left side bar. At least that is where it is right now. Things are subject to change. I enjoy moving things around on this website as much as I love moving furniture around in my house. SWS tries to keep you informed of the latest news in the coupon world, grocery savings, freebies, travelling, gardening, treasure hunting, reading and so much more.

The "News Reel" is bringing you the latest news from the Wall Street Journal, Miami Herald and a variety of other news worthy sites regarding cutting expenses as well.

We all have different reasons for saving money and cutting our budget. For my family, we have a daughter going off to college. The "Hope" is very helpful but it does not cover all expenses -- and a year from now, we will be looking for an apartment for our daughter's sophomore year.

One other incentive for me to save personally -- I enjoy travelling. I am already planning my next trip. Since I am saving several thousand dollars a year through couponing and other savings opportunity that comes my way, my savings will help fund my travels.

If you are not on board the savings train, then you are missing out on great money saving opportunities. Times are hard for everyone -- this is a new world we are living in. Join us now, we would love to hear from you.

Finally A Good Deal on My Dog Food

Princess Run Run is very picky about her food. For some reason she just wants to eat Beneful and only Beneful. I happened to look in the Publix flyer and notice that they are running a B1G1 deal on this dog food. I was so excited.

I can finally use the catalina I have for $2 off Beneful. Check and see if you have one floating around. This is really a good deal considering how many years I paid full price.

I guess I should also check to see if Publix has an in store coupon and stack them. Either way, half off is better that nothing.

Buy at Mac Get a Free iPod Touch

Our family recently switched from the PC World to the "Mac" World. We purchased three Apple MacBook Pro Laptops and it is the best purchase I have ever made.


I have had nothing but problems with my PC in the twelve months I have owned it and am just about ready to ditch it.

Family, friends and strangers have been trying to convert us to a Mac for years and we finally took the plunge. I was really worried about learning something new but it is amazingly easy. After tinkering with it for a few nights, I wonder why I did not change over sooner.

You would know that Apple is offering this amazing deal for a Free iPod with the purchase of select Macs after we purchased our laptops. I am considering giving Apple a call and asking what can they do for me. One good thing is that I did ask for the educational discount on all the lap tops and they gave it to us on each one. I thought we were just going to get the discount off of my daughter's laptop. Your discount depends on which Mac you purchase. Ours was $50 off each lap top.

Click here to visit the Apple Store and check out their offer of a Free iPod and don't forget to ask about the educational discount. The offer is good through September 8th.

The Grocery Game has posted their Triples/Match Up list for Harris Teeter. She posted today because of triples, otherwise it would have been Sunday which is the normal time.

Bath & Body Works
The Big Semi-Annual Sale

Starts June 1 at 9:00 AM. If you are on Bath & Body Works mailing list, you probably received a coupon card for $10 off any purchase of $40 or more. I love Bath & Body products and this is always a good time to stock up.

If you are not registered, sign up here to receive email promotions and offers and maybe you will get a coupon or even better, a Free offer just in time for the sale.

Baskin Robbins Free Ice Cream

You have two chances to get free ice cream at Baskin Robbins.

Click here for a printable coupon for a free ice cream with purchase at your local Baskin-Robbins store. The BOGO deal is to promote their new 31° Below dessert, which features soft-serve ice cream with mix-ins (similar to Dairy Queen's Blizzard). The coupon's good through June 21 and will get you a free 31° Below of equal or lesser value when you buy one 31° Below. Check with your local store to be sure they are participating.

The second deal at Baskin-Robbins is Free ice cream. Sign up for the non-partisan group Do Something, which encourages young people to participate in politics. You will be emailed a coupon good from July 13th – July 17th.

Samples from your favorite brands ...

I think we all like to get surprises in our mailbox no matter our age or our household income. People just like to get things for Free. The nice thing about samples is that you almost always get coupons with the product and you also have the opportunity to try a product you have not tried. I have gotten so many samples that I have started giving them away in some of my classes.

Most recently, I received a Glade Plug-In along with a refill and coupons. Let us here about the great samples you have received.

Whooohooo!

Retail: $312.45

We love to see how much our friends are saving. It really gets us motivated. Not all of us will have savings like Lissa - this is phenomenal. However, you can cut 50% off your grocery bill easily. Start slowly and before you know it, you will want to save like Lissa.

Thanks Lissa.

Also, take advantage of the $1.00 off coupon offered by Publix on ground beef. As you can see, those dollars add up.

Now, I need to sit down and get my list together.

Click on picture below to join Chef Michael's Blog for great recipes...

Here is an easy, easy appetizer I put together for my family occasionally. It brings back fond memories of our time together in Italy. If you like cantaloupe and you like prosciutto, try it.

Slice a sweet chilled cantaloupe into cubes and wrap prosciutto around a cube (use toothpick to hold together). The sweet flavor of the fruit collides with the salty taste of the prosciutto. Gustoso!

I have used this product several times and paid premium back in the day when I was not using coupons or looking for sales. I received a sample offer for Crest White Strips in the mail the other day and also enclosed was a $10 off coupon. If you use the coupon in conjunction with a store sale the price is pretty good.

Not sure what the coupon offer is in this box of New Crest Whitening Strips Advanced Seal but it could be worth a try if you like this type of product.

Who ever thought this

and this

would do this...

Have you ever dropped something down the drain and had the expense of taking the drain trap off. Well I have. Most recently curler pins, but this time I did not call a plumber. I was in a wait and see mode - never got the pins back but sink still working. Better not elaborate too much in case my husband reads this post.

No need to worry any more. Dell just sent me this link to FamilyHack (a familyblog) where the father demonstrates via video using a shop vac and pantyhose to get an item out of the drain trap. Pretty cool. Makes me almost want to drop something down the drain to see if it works.

Next time, this happens to you, save those plumber fees and give it a try. Click here to check it out. Click on arrow to play video.

Thanks Dell and FamilyHack.

Book Sale

Update on Book Sale:

Today, my daughter and I went to the book sale. I thought it was supposed to be a small sale but there were so many books, I could have spent hours. My daughter found about 8 books in twenty minutes and I was still on the first table. Needless to say, I did not get to spend hours as she was ready to go.

We filled up a box of books and walked away spending only $20. Hardback books were $1.50 and paperback were .50. I would rather spend $1.50 on the Davinci Code than $18! We have enough books to keep us busy all summer. Now I just have to find some quite time to read so I can finish Twilight series and move on to all the other great books.

The sale is still going on tomorrow so stop by and support the library.
____________________________________________

I have to mention an upcoming book sale. I know many of you don't live in my area but just want to make a small post for those that do. I love the library book sales and could spend hours browsing through all the titles. I have picked up some good finds of recent best sellers for next to nothing -- the prices are very reasonable.

Friends of the Brunswick Library will hold an impromptu book sale this Friday and Saturday. There will be lots of children and young adult titles available.

9:30-5:00

Brunswick Library

For those that don't live in my area, check with your local library to see when your next book sale is scheduled.

Free Apple Camp for Kids

This summer Apple Retail Stores will be offering a Free camp for kids. Kids have the opportunity to learn to make a movie, create photo slideshows, write and record a song, and so much more. Below are the camps that are offered:

Movie Workshop: Lights. Camera. Action
Music Workshop: Ready to rock?
Photo Workshop: Point. Shoot. Share
Presentation Workshop: Take the stage

Camps will be offered at every Apple Retail Store and each Free workshop lasts three hours. Click here for complete details and to sign up your child today.

I would register quick – I bet these classes will fill up fast. If I could get away with it, I would sign up. I would love to learn how to use my Mac. What about an Apple Camp for Adults?

Below is what Apple suggests you bring. For further information, go to sign up page.

“Your Apple Store will supply computers, a digital camera, and a digital camcorder. Sample footage, photos, and music will also be available to campers. But if you have your own Apple notebook running Mac OS X, a digital camera, or digital camcorder, feel free to bring them, along with any required cables. Your kid can bring his or her favorite photos, movies, and music to use in Apple Camp, too.”

Target and Walmart Deals

UPDATE:

I just found my receipt and wanted to brag too.

Total Retail: $77.20

Paid: $32.94

Saved: $44.26

By the way, I used one of my $5.00 coupons off the Scott's Liquid Feed. I spray my flowers with this product every year. Click here and check out my back post for this coupon. 4-Pack sells for $10.79 and $5.00 off is great. Hit back browser a few times for a second coupon.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I made a good run to Target a couple of days ago - saved $44. Unfortunately I can't find my receipt to elaborate. However, just heard from Rita - she went to Walmart and took advantage of some great savings deals. In her words...

Retail: $119.00 Paid $42.00 WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I loved it.

Oh yeah, she was happy.

For a great list of items on sale at Target click here and go on over to Hip2Save. This is the best list I have seen in a while. Scroll down and look for the Target deals for 5/17 - 5/23.

Hip2Save also has a great list for Walmart. Click here to plan your attack and see if you can beat Rita's deal.

Thanks Rita and Hip2Save.

Shutter Fly: 50 Free 4 x 6 Prints

Another great savings deal. Remember the old days and how much we used to pay for 24 or 36 exposure 35 mm prints. I love the digital age.

If you are registered at Shutterfly, you may have received an offer for 50 Free 4 x 6 prints. It pays to register at some of these sites - like Shutterfly, CVS, Walgreens, etc -- you get really good deals and offers by being a member.

Last night my daughter and I signed up on Shutterfly and received 25 free prints because we were newbies.

If you are already registered with Shutterfly, put in the code and give it a try. Offer ends May 27, 2009. If not, register and get 25 for free -- still a good deal.

Your unique code for 50 Free is: HAPPY50

Thanks Cissy -- we finally ordered prints we had been putting off for months.

I recently joined the Grocery Gathering at BeCentsAble. It is a resource for shoppers to find current grocery and drugstore deals in one place. You can find deals at Walmart, Target, CVS, Kmart, Walgreens, Rite-Aid as well as links to 58 local grocery and drug stores.
