How I Got $40 Worth of Products For $4.72 at CVS

June 5, 2011 By 13 Comments
CVS

My sister, out of all people I know, hasn't done much shopping with coupons -- that is until she moved to a beautiful apartment with a much higher rent. In the past year, I have tried to tell her that the way to save money on groceries and toiletries, she must buy a newspaper or two to get her maximum savings due to the coupon inserts. Since she's a workaholic, she doesn't have the time to coupon like I do so she's been taking baby steps.   Hey, a girl's gotta start somewhere, … [Read more...]

It's been a long time since I participated in Secret Santa. I remember in college, my friends and I got together and we decided on playing Secret Santa one year to save some money.  We agreed on having $10 as the limit.

When it was time to give each other gifts, some of us knew who their Secret Santa was already.  It was a lot of fun. Recently, RocketXL contacted me and asked if I wanted to par … [Read more...]

If you missed Black Friday deals, don't fret. I did too. There's something about standing on line in the FREEZING cold, waiting for the doors to open so that I can get a deal of the century that I do not like. I rather shop in the comfort of my own home with my pj's sipping on hot chocolate on Cyber Monday. Here are some deals I have found to be a great deal today and some even thru tomorrow! Aeropostale -- Cyber Monday Deals ALL DAY LONG. Aerosoles -- Save an extra 20% off any purchase … [Read more...]

When I first moved in with my husband (back when we were boyfriend/girlfriend) we fell in love with IKEA's style so basically our whole apartment came from IKEA.  The furniture was cheap, pretty good quality and very hip and stylish.  Everyone that would come over loved every piece of furniture, bookcase and/or picture frame. They couldn't believe it all came from IKEA. I wanted to share with all of you that IKEA is having two great promotions going on this week. One will be held in … [Read more...]
