1. Go to swagbuck’s homepage.

2. Click on “Ways to Earn” on the top of the page

3. Click on “Special Offers”

Starting this Sunday, Walgreens will have ThermaCare Heat Wraps on sale for $2.49. AND, you will get $2.50 RRs back after you pay for them!! This makes them FREE!! However, we can make the deal into a moneymaker if you print out the $1.00/1 ThermaCare coupon.

You can only do this ONCE per transaction so if you want multiple Thermacares for free, you need to do multiple transactions:

Thermacare: $2.49

Less: $1.00 printable coupon

Total Out of pocket: $1.49

Receive $2.50 RRs, makes this a $1.01 Moneymaker!!

You should be able to print multiple printable coupons from just one printer. HOWEVER, you will need to create a separate account for each coupon. Make sure each coupon you print out has a different security code (it is on the bottom left of the coupon). If the security code is a duplicate, you can only use one of the duplicate coupon..

Thanks Who Said Nothing in Life is Free!

**Update – it looks like this coupon is gone already! I will keep my eyes posted for new ones! So, I finally sorted my coupons from this weekend’s papers and I came across the 1/3/10 SS insert with the $1.00/2 Publix store coupon. This made me want to find other sources of Kraft manufacturer coupons so that we could stack them together to get $2.00 off two bags of cheese! Of course, I am too late because many blogs beat me to it! Nonetheless, Here is a printable $1.00/2 Kraft 2% Milk Cheese coupon. (This will go fast. Don’t forget you can print this twice! Also – if you don’t shop at Publix, that’s ok – this printable coupon will be good at whatever store you shop at!)

kraft

**To Publix shoppers, let’s wait for Publix to have a good Kraft cheese sale so we an use the $1.00/2 store coupon AND the $1.00/2 printable coupon together to get $2.00 off two bags of already reduced cheese!

Tuesday’s Tips – What is Overage?

So, this tip is a day late and a dollar short. I woke up at 3 am this morning realizing I never posted a tip yesterday! And, here I am at 10 pm finally posting it!

Today’s tip is about overage. You have probably seen me use this term randomly throughout my blog. In fact, if you checked out the two Photo Show and Tells I posted today, you saw that I have used overage to my advantage. What is overage? Overage is the excess amount owed to you by your store when your coupon amount exceeds the price of the product you purchase. Some stores allow overage, some do not. The stores that don’t allow overage will typically adjust your coupon amount so that you get the item for free, without any extra money owed to you. Most of the stores that do allow overage will not actually pay you money, but they will instead apply the overage towards other items you buy.

For example, Publix currently has an awesome store coupon in their Green Advantage flyer. It is a $5/2 Bayer products coupon. Since this is a store coupon, you can stack the store with a two manufacturer coupons (since you are buying 2 Bayer products). Here’s how the math works:

Buy 2 Small Bottles of Bayer $2.47 each, totaling $4.94

Use 1 $5/2 Publix store coupon. New total: negative 6 cents

Use 2 $1/1 manufacturer coupons. New total: negative $2.06

The negative $2.06 shown above is actually a credit given by Publix. Publix is paying you $2.06 to buy 2 bottles of Bayer. However, Publix won’t give you $2.06 cash. So, instead, you will need to purchase other items to put the credit towards. An awesome way to get the cost of meat, vegetables and fruits down is by using overage.

Also – Publix will allow you to use multiples of the same deal in one transaction. So, if you grab 4 Green Advantage flyers, buy 8 Bayer, use four of the $5/2 Publix coupons, use eight $1/1 manufacturer coupons, your overage will now be $8.24. Put that towards chicken breasts which are on sale for $1.99 and you just got 4 lbs of chicken free!

So, now can you see why I LOVE overage! Publix has a ton of deals this month so make sure you take advantage of them. And, if you shop at other stores besides Publix, keep your eyes on the sales. When you see rock bottom sale prices and you have high value coupons, then more often than not, you will not only get the item FREE, but it will be a MONEYMAKER!!

This looks like a pretty good week at Publix! My favorite deals are below and I’ve included the ongoing Green Advantage Deals at the bottom since those deals are too good to miss!

******Two Main Notes for my Florida Blog readers – 1) When Publix has a Buy One Get One Sale, in order for us to receive the second item free, we have to buy both items. Other states only have to buy one item and they will get that item half (50%) off. 2) For Floridians, if we use coupons 50 cents or less, our coupons are not doubled. Other states will double coupons as long as they are 50 cents or less.

After shopping at Publix last night, I really wanted to go back to stock up on Slim Fast bars. My husband was just complaining that we didn’t have any granola bars.. well.. I don’t expect to hear him complain for a long time now 🙂 I made one huge mistake this shopping venture. I thought I was getting the BeneVia free with overage. However, I mistakingly brought a $1.00/1 manufacturer coupon so coupled with the $4.00/1 store coupon, I had to actually pay $3.49 for it! UGH. Fortunately, the overage from the Bayer saved me a bit. However, if I hadn’t made the mistake, I was expecting to come out of pocket under $1.00 and I was going to save my $2.00/$20.00 store coupon… Oh well. I spent $2.36 on everything you see above and saved $41.18.

Here’s the rundown for today’s Publix stop:

1 Benevia Juice priced at $8.49 each

Minus one $1.00/1 printable manufacturer coupons

Minus one $4.00/1 Publix store coupon from Green Advantage flyer

Total: $3.49 (DARN MY MISTAKE!)

7 Slim Fast 6pk 100 Calorie Bars on sale for $2.50

Minus one $1.25/1 manufacturer from All You Magazine

Minus one $1.00/1 Publix store coupons from Green Advantage flyer

Total: $1.75!!

2 Bayer Low Dose 32 ct Pain Relievers priced at $2.47 each

Minus two $1.00/1 manufacturer coupons from 10/25 RP and 1/3/10 SS

Minus one $5.00/2 Publix store coupon from Green Advantage flyer

Total: FREE plus $2.06 OVERAGE!!

2 Yakisoba Noodles priced at $0.79 each

Minus two $.50/1 manufacturer coupons from 10/18 SS or 1/3/10 SS

Total: $0.58!

Minus $2.00 when you spend $20.00 Publix store coupon. (Received from a half marathon I ran in that was sponsered by Publix)

Grand Total: Spent $2.36 on $43.54 worth of food. (Saved $41.18 or 94.5% of the grocery bill!)
