Grocery Coupon Guide

Once again it is time for those following this challenge to vote on the rules. On my morning walk, I came across a woman working in her garden and struck up a conversation. I noticed that had an orange tree in her yard and I asked if the oranges were good? She went over to [...]

While I have done a bit of traveling while doing this $1 a day challenge, today was the first day that I traveled by plane. There was a company that wanted to meet me to do some writing for them and paid for me to fly down to LA for the day. That meant that [...]

Little did I know when I started this challenge that I would be in direct competition with squirrels when it came to getting fruit in the wild. I had already had a standoff with a squirrel in front of a lemon tree. This morning the stakes in our battle significantly increased when I caught a [...]

While there is a great Kraft salad dressing money maker all this week, it looks like a Safeway shopping trip over the weekend is a good idea to take advantage a couple of good deals on Gold Fish Crackers and Blueberry Juice — combine all these three together and you can get them all for [...]

CVS will actually pay you a little to buy toothpaste this week. If you are willing to send in a rebate, there is a $5 moneymaker for Zegerid OTC and there are also a couple of free Power bars available. If there is anything else on your shopping list this week, be sure to use [...]

Walgreens will actually pay you to Gillette Body Wash this week (great last minute Father’s Day gift) , and don’t forget to pick up some free tampons! You can also look for more deals using a coupon data base: Walgreens does something called Register Rewards. These are just like catalina coupons, they print at the [...]
