The Best Deals and Coupon Match Ups for This Week

Looking for a Handy Link Guide to the Best Deals of the Week?
Don't Pore Over Those Circulars.. Here's a Handy Linked Guide to Those That Have Already Figured Out the Best Deals for You!

As I try to do most week, I have grabbed links to some of the best deals match ups for you for this week.  Looking at crowded circulars can be frustrating sometimes. Now, all you have to do is follow a link from here to some of my fave blogs and you will find some great deals scenarios.  Some are handy and printable even!  Happy Deal Hunting this week!

  • For some good Target Deal Scenarios, go HERE to Totally Target's site.  
  • A Walmart shopper? HERE is a list of the Under $1 deals as found by Kristin at Couponing to Disney.
  • CVS is a fave of mine. I love the folks that work at my location.  I like to check out this list HERE before I go. Some are free, some are moneymakers! Thanks, Kristin!   Also, let us know if you get some good coupons at the kiosk scanner in store.
  • Coupon Katarina has some good deals up HERE for Rite Aid. I have recently started doing Rite Aid deals. I have had mixed luck. The deals I find are really great. However, my location seems to be inadequately stocked on the deal items.
  • Again, I really like how Kristin at Couponing to Disney lays out the deals. So, go HERE for a link to her list on the Walgreens deals.
Anyone need information on deals to a store not listed? I will try to hunt those down for you guys, too!

Let us know what deals you are working this week.

Grab Your Circulars! It is POA Time Again!

Yesterday was Sunday Paper Day
Today, it is Time for Your Weekly POA!
Everyone got a paper yesterday, right? You have all gone to print your coupons from your fave sites, right? These are mine: Target and Coupons.com.

Whether you got your paper full of coupons and circulars, or not, I am going to link the best deal scenarios of the week here for you in one easy to reference spot.  Let me know if I have missed a store or deal you might be interested in.

  • Go HERE for some good CVS match ups.  Some are money makers, 7 are under $1. (Thanks, Couponing to Disney!)
  • HERE is Rite Aid. There are a lot of money makers on the list! Also, if you got the P&G coupon book rebate, seems like you can score some really good freebies, like the Gain dishsoap. (Thanks, again, Couponing to Disney)
  • Walgreens has some super cheap Skintimate shaving cream this week, for those of you that asked!  Go HERE for that deal and many more! (Thanks,Couponing to Disney)
  • For a list of items you can get for under a $1, go HERE.  Walmart does not usually put out good deals in weekly circulars. Their sales seem to be so-so to me. Locally, they are a pain to deal with at check out time for someone with a lot of coupons. IF you have a Walmart that you have good experience with and welcomes couponers, let us know! (Thanks, Couponing to Disney)
  • Totally Target has a comprehensive circular deals match up list HERE. (Thanks Totally Target!)  OR, if you like the check list and simple form that Kristin at Couponing to Disney implements, the Target less than $1 deals are HERE.
I usually pick one drug store a week to shop, and I usually go to Target.  With 3 kids in tow, I have to pace myself.  There are many more bloggers that run the deals and scenarios. You have to pick a couple blogs you like and use mine to supplement them. If you do too many stores, blogs, scenarios, you will get burned out pretty quickly.

Happy Shopping! Let us know what you find out there.

It's That Time of the Week Again! Sunday Paper Day!

Today is Sunday Paper Day!
Sunday Paper Day is one of the most important days of the week to the couponer. The Sunday Paper provides you with most of the information you need to plan out your shopping trip(s) for the week to get the best deal possible.  Read the circulars and decide which stores will have the deals you want and need. Clip the coupons and save almost every single one. (Don't have a need for diapers in your house? Maybe you have a pet. Maybe you can trade a fellow couponer your diaper coupon for their pet food one. OR maybe you find a deal that makes diapers free.. there is an easy way to make a difference.. donate!)

Make your plan of action out. Write down the stores you want to visit this week. Write out your shopping list for that store. Add any coupons you have to that list.  That way you will be ready to go save some money. Also, be sure to take a physical copy of the circular with you, just in case. Some stores do not clearly mark all the current deals. (Along that train of thought, pay attention to the signs that are marking deals in-store. Some have teensy deal expiration dates printed on them. If a clerk forgets to take the signage down, but it has an expiration date on it, they will not honor an expired deal for you.) 

So, what are you guys looking for this week? What deals should we be keeping our eyes out for?

What exactly are the deals this week, and how are the seasoned couponers working them?  Luckily for you, I have collated them in one handy reference here! Just choose a store and click on it for a link to some of the best deals this week! 

I like to do my shopping on Monday nights. Once I work my deals, I will post my scenerios here for you! And, please share any deals you find! 

Target -Weekly Circular, and in-store unadvertised deals! (Thanks, Totally Target!)

Rite Aid- 15 deals under a dollar, and some are free or moneymakers! (Thanks, Couponing to Disney)

Walmart- Under $1 masterlist (Thanks, Couponing to Disney)

CVS- Weekly Circular deals, and coupon match-ups. Some freebies and moneymakers this week! (Thanks, Couponing to Disney)

Walgreens- Under $1 deals, freebies, and moneymakers for the week  (Thanks, Couponing to Disney)

Use these scenarios in addition to your weekly circulars from the paper. Don't forget to check out in-store deals that are unadvertised. Don't forget to swing by clearance sections. You can use your coupons on the clearance items for even greater savings. Don't forget that if you have a coupon that says $1 off any, and it doesn't specify an exclusion of size (travel, trial, etc), you can go get some freebies in the travel aisle. Who cares if you have to buy you deodorants mini-sized every week if you never have to pay for deodorant again? Or Pantene hairspray? Be savvy and rethink your coupons!

Share your deals with us! We want to know!
