Walgreens: Super-coup alert!

Walgreens has just put out their new October Instant Value Coupons booklet (in stores now).  And just like that stacking post I made about Target coupons and manufacturers coupons, you can use a Walgreens coupon AND a manufacturer's coupon on the same item!

Some of my favorite coupons from the book are:
$3/1 Almay Bright Eyes Liner Highlighter, Eyeshadow or Concealer ***just think of the super-coup power!***
$1.50/1 Baby Bliss Travel Pack Gripe Water (3-oz.) or Gripe Water Original (4-oz.)
$1/1 Carmex Original or Cherry Squeeze Tube (0.35-oz. 3-pk.)
$1/1 Heel Rescue Foot Cream (16-oz.)
$2/1 Huggies Wipes (184 or 216-pk.) ***just think of the super-coup power!***
$0.50/1 Quilted Northern (12-rolls)
$4/1 Revlon Foundation ColorStay Mineral, Custom Creations or Beyond Natural ***just think of the super-coup power!***
$0.99/3 Wrigley’s Orbit Gum (14-pk.)

Here's a link to all of the available coupons.

TARGET: Super-coup alert!

Hey, did you know that you can use a manufacturer's coupon AND a store coupon on the same item at Target? 

You know how there are coupons in the Sunday ads that have the Target logo on them?  I never cut them out before, but I will now!  You also can print coupons from the Target Web site.

Use these in combo (true couponers call this "stacking") with regular manufacturer's coupons, and BAM! you've got a super-coup!

Stretching a Buck puts together an amazing list of deals each week... here are the ones for Target this week if you want to see some great examples of how coupon stacking works.

Here's Target's official policy on coupons, so don't let them tell you they don't do it!  :-)

ALICE! Goodie bags and free samples! AND win a Mac Book!

Yes, I know, two Alice.com posts in a row... but for two good reasons!!!

1. Alice just announced that they will be giving away goodie bags in select boxes.  And by "goodie," they mean everything from free samples tailored to what you might like to... iPod shuffles, iPod Touches, Flip video cameras, free movie rentals, gas cards, and free travel!  Woo hoo!!!!!

2. Contest for a free Mac Book!!!  Win a Mac Book!  Here’s how to enter (so easy!):

       1) Spread the word. Tell your friends about the launch of goodie bags at Alice.com via Twitter, Facebook, and/or a blog post. You can only use each way once, but can use each option for multiple chances to win. We’d love to see you let everyone know what you receive in your Alice box this month.

       2) Then, go back to the Alice blog, leave a comment on contest post and include the link to your tweet, update, or blog post about our free samples. Once you do, you’ll be entered into our contest to win a Mac Book Pro!

ALICE! What I got for $6.20!

As you know, I am a huge fan of Alice.com.  I should be working for them for all the PR I do!

Click here to get a free account and get a $10 credit in your account once you spend at $50 on the site.  They have partnered up with brand name grocery item manufacturers as a different way of marketing brand names in this new economy, so there are some great deals!  Did I mention it's FREE SHIPPING if you order 6 or more items?

Once you sign in, head to the Other Ways to Shop dropdown list on the top right, then to Shop the Best Deals... that's where all the good stuff is!  I've purchased Huggies for 11 cents each!  The prices on the rest of the site are very competitive, but, buy, if you hit it at the right time... you're hooked!

Here's what I got in my latest order for $6.20 (incl. tax and shipping):

1 6-pack of Slim-Fast snack bars

3 packs of "lady products" (total of 60)

1 travel-size Downy Wrinkle Releaser (oh, but then yesterday I got a full-size one for 58 cents!)

1 roll of Bounty paper towels

Yeah, I said $6.20.

I love Alice!
