Cheap trip to the movies! Only $1.00 Per Person!

Have you been to the $1.00 Movies on Tuesdays and Wednesdays yet!? They Start at 10am!! Today I took the kids to see Smurfs and tomorrow they are showing Smurfs 2!!!  It is way exciting to ask for three tickets to a movie and then the total only be $3.00 for the kids and I to see a movie.  Now these are mostly last years movies but we have only seen about half of them on the list, so it is especially exciting for my kiddos.  We do not go to the movies often, because by the time you buy the tickets, drink and popcorn you are easily spending over $50.  And I just can't do that!  I just won't do that! lol  Call me cheap, but unless there is a deal, discount or coupon involved I am certainly gonna think twice about paying full price.  Another thing I like to do is make a quick run to the dollar tree.  They sell virtually the same candy for 1/5 of the price as the movies. In addition they also sell cute mini minute maid juice box multipacks.  So for $5.00  I can take the kids to the movies, and kill the summer blues.  Hope you feel inspired to do the same if you are looking for something cheap to do with your kiddos.  Makes for fun family time : ) 

Free Meal at Chick Fil A On Friday!!

I totally love this deal! On Friday July 11th. you can get a free meal for dressing like a cow!  Head over to Chick Fil A with your best Cow outfit and eat FOR FREE!  Here is the link to a "Printable" outfit of items you can tape onto your clothing to be more "cow like" : ) Be careful though, if you only come with a "cow accessory" such as just the ears or only a couple spots, you will only get a free entree.  I love this deal mostly for the kids, they have a great time and it doesn't cost me a dime!  I usually go to the Chick Fil A in Hagerstown, but there is also one in Frederick in front of their Target.  Good Luck!

Here is an old pic of my kids about to get their free kids meal, Summer 2012!

Extra Savings On Kellogg's Cereal and A FREE Movie Ticket! Here's how to do it!!

 

Have you seen the Kellogg's Cereal Boxes with Spiderman on the lower corner of the box?  Not every Kellogg's Cereal Variety or size has them but the ones that do have a code inside that you can enter Here. Three codes earns you free concession cash and six codes earns you a free movie ticket!  That's right you can print out a "Kellogg's Movie Ticket Coupon" Right from your computer and bring it to the movies and redeem for one free ticket!!  This is awesome because you figure when you have kids you are usually buying cereal anyway, and if you buy the Spiderman boxes you will end up with enough codes to save money at the movies!!  If you don't want to stock up on Kellogg's cereals and only care to buy a few for concession cash, there is another way to see a cheap movie.  Check Regal (Valley Mall) and Leitersburg Cinema's for their Summer $1.00 Movies on Tuesdays and Wedesdays @ 10am.  That option will get you a cheap movie with some FREE popcorn!

Another side note, Waynesboro Walmart has Kellogg's Cereal Boxes on sale for $2.00. The ones on sale are not in the cereal isle like you would expect but in a large flat in front of the milk coolers.  And if you head on over to the Kellogg's Website you can print a few coupons to save you money on that cereal!! If you get frosted flakes you can use the $1/2 coupon and get each box for $1.50! Plus you get the Code inside!!  Just make sure you pick the boxes with the Spiderman on them. Another great way to get Kellogg's coupons is to sign up at Kellogg's Rewards and they will send you weekly cereal coupons usually for $1/2 any Kellogg's Or Keebler Item and sometimes even Eggo frozen waffles etc.  This same website will allow you to enter rewards codes that come in all Kellogg's and Keebler brand boxes and can earn you points to redeem towards high value coupons i.e. $1.50 Off Rice Krispies Treats.  You can also find these codes through a google search where a lot of bloggers will list the current codes and values.

So in conclusion if you find multiple coupons from either Kelloggs, Coupons.com Or your sunday paper, you can get six boxes of cereal and One movie ticket for only $9.00!!!!!!!!!   That is the deal of the summer people!!! Not only is it cheaper on average just for the amount of cereal you are getting, but you cannot go to the movies for only $9.00 these days.
So Good luck and go get some cereal and I will see you at the MOVIES FOR FREEEEE!!!

Good Food On The Cheap : )

Lately I have been dividing my grocery needs between Save A Lot And Target. Save A Lot is hassle free. They only take insert coupons and even then it is random that a coupon will match up to one of their items.  But coupons are not necessary when shopping there because the deals are soo good!!  Two of my favorite items there this week were Pineapples for $1.99 and  Low Fat Cream Popsicle's for $1.99!  Major score there.

There are many great deals at Target as well, I like to combine my Cartwheel Discounts, with Target Mobile Printable and Manufacturer Coupons.  You really will drop your Price down low when you shop for the items that work with all three options.  A couple that I saved on today was Market Pantry Cheese, Apples and Strawberries.

The Market Pantry Shredded Cheese is on sale 2/$4, then there is a Mobile Coupon for $1/2 Plus Save 5%  with Cartwheel. Only $2.84 for both!!
Next Bagged Apples were $3.00ea. and Strawberries $2.49ea.  I Used a $2/$5 Fresh Fruit Mobile Coupon, as well as 5% Cartwheel Discount AND a $.50 Off  Discolls Berries Coupon.  So for a bag of apples and a 1lb. container of strawberries I Only paid $2.84!!!!  You can eat healthy for cheap, just do a little research : )

To Find the Target Mobile Coupons I used Text RECIPE To 827438 Good Thru 5/18
To get a great coupon for $10/$50 Drink and Grocery Purchase Starting 5/18 Text FOOD To 827438
Good Luck!!

Vidal Sassoon Shampoo For Only $.47 Cents!! What!? Yeah!!

 This week I was seriously in need of shampoo! My stock was completely gone!  So I headed to Walmart with my shampoo coupons and spotted this deal. I was able to score Vidal Sassoon Shampoo for only $.47 Cents!!!  Yay!  And this is a good size bottle too, not a trial size.  I also bought some Herbal Essences Conditioner and hair spray.  (You can't be too brand loyal when you coupon, or the deals will not be as plentiful, unless its makeup of course!)
Anyway, Most of the Herbal Essences products run only $2.97 at Walmart, Versus the almost $5.00 at CVS this week, so again Walmart is the place for shampoo at the moment ; )   I had a $3.00 Off When you Buy Two coupon and that was like a BOGO Deal for me and so i popped them in my cart too!  So for less than $3.50 I was able to stock up on some much needed hair products!!
Since we are talking about hair, I have been in serious need of a hair cut, it was getting waaay too long, especially for my hair type. But I was not going to splurge on a hair cut if I didn't have to so I turned to Youtube! I always cut my daughters hair and also buzz cut my son and husband's hair. So why pay for mine either right? I watched videos on how stylists show you how to cut your own hair.  Now I don't recommend that everyone do this, you definitely run the risk of messing up your hair and that's not joke, but I went for it and it turned out great! One of my best hair cuts I've had and I will probably continue to cut it on my own from now on.


The last great deal I found was at CVS. (Not hair related lol)
I knew they had coke 12pks on sale for $3.00ea. and I had a store coupon for $3/$15, Plus a store AND manufacturer coupon that combined would get me a free razor plus $1.50 towards whatever else I bought. (This is called overage in coupon lingo)  Next I needed children's Zyrtec for my kiddos.  They were on sale for Buy 1 Get 1 50% off!!  With all of these deals together I bought two bottles of Zyrtec, two coke 12pks and one Venus razor for only $9.15!!!!!   One of the best trips I've done at CVS in a while.  So keep your eyes on those sale flyers and buy your papers at the dollar tree on Sundays for your weekly coupons!!!!!

This Week's Great Finds!

 When we get to the end of a season you can bet there will be great mark downs!!   I have been keeping my eye on kid's coats and finally found them on clearance in Walmart this week!  I bought two coats Originally priced at $17.97ea for only $9.00ea.!

 

 These cute clothes in the girls section of walmart were on clearance as well and at full price would have been $47.00, but I only paid $23.50.  I found four long sleeve shirts, two shorts and one Hello Kitty T Shirt! This was a great find for my soon to be 8 year old and she was very happy to see what I had picked out for her!












      My last frugal trip was to Save A Lot.  They usually have really low prices on their grocery items but this week was especially good!  I thought I was going to walk through with just a hand basket and get a couple things but when I spotted the Whole Chickens on sale for $.99/lb and Pillsbury Grands Biscuits for $1.00ea I had begun to wish that I had taken a cart in instead!!
     I had my coupons handy of course and quickly leafed through to find my $1.00 Off 3 Pillsbury Biscuits coupon making them only $.67 cents ea.  Then I spotted the Oscar Mayer Lunchables for also $1.00 ea. and bought two, one for each of my kiddos : )  
      The next fab deal was on General Mills Cereals.  I found Golden Grahams and Lucky Charms (huge favorites in our house for both the kids and adults) for only $1.99ea.  I made this deal even sweeter by using a $1.00 Off of 2 GM Cereals Coupon making them only $1.49ea!!
       This really was a fun week to shop smart!
