A few good finds at Kroger and a visual test,lol
I want to assure everyone you are NOT seeing double, this is only a test. Again, my husband has told me my "staging" of my shopping looks terrible. I decided to leave this to my readers. Just let me know which picture(upper or lower) you think is more visually appealing! Feel free to leave comments here.
Now, on to the deals. Stopped into Kroger to pick up my 3 free Dial handsoap and I noticed the 2 bar packs of soap were also on sale for $1! Well, seeing as I am swimming in handsoap, and my husband won't use bodywash(too girly) I chose to get these instead. While there, I also picked up a few other items I thought were a good deal. Here is the breakdown:
Keep in mind my store doubles up to .50 and triples up to .39, three like coupons per transaction.
3 Dial soap $1 - .35 insert 8-16 SS = FREE
3 Suave bodywash $1.50 each - 2 .50 insert 8-2 RP - B2G1 insert 9-13 RP = $1/3 (all the Suave coupons beeped)
3 Softsoap ensembles 2 @ $3.29, 1 @ 2.47 - 3 * $2 tearpad(has Wags logo but says redeemable anywhere)= 2 @ 1.29 and 1 @ .47 *
*There is a current catalina deal on the Softsoap Ensembles. Earn $2 oynso catalina for each one you buy
1 Diet DP (not pictured) $1.39
-$5 oynso catalina from a prior purchase
Total oop $.60
Earned $6 in other oynso catalinas, so profit of

Well, for the shopping done this weekend, all items were "staged" by the husband but I still actually took the pictures(so if they are blurry, you still have to blame me).

Walgreens final Sally Hansen Run on Saturday
Target run on Saturday
I was out and about on Saturday on other errands, so stopped in at a couple Targets I was passing along the way. The prices varied a little on some items, but here is a rough breakdown, for at least the coupons I used to get the items:
40 Cesar Bistro dog foods .89 each - bogo insert 8-30 RP - bogo insert 9-13 RP Target = FREE
24 Fancy Feast Appetizers 1.29 each - bogo insert 9-13 RP (these beep?) - bogo IP Target= FREE
2 Pop tarts $1.46 each - $2/2 insert 8-30 RP - $1 IP Target= -.08
5 Purina One $5.89-5.99 each - $3 insert 9-13 RP - $2 IP Target= .99 each
1 Bounce dryer bar $3.74 - $1.50 vocalpoint homemailer - $1.50 insert 8-23 RP Target = .74
9 Schick Quattro Women's razors $7.49-$7.79 each - $4 insert 8-23 SS - $4 insert 8-30 Target = -.51- -.21 each
2 Schick Quattro cartridges $9.19-9.29 each - $4 insert 8-23 SS - $4 insert 8-30 Target = $1.19-1.29 each
Most these prices should still be good just not sure on the Pop tarts or the Bounce dryer bar. The FF Appetizers are now $1.22, though it does not matter since they are bogo coupons.

Walgreens Great RR deal
The Sally Hansen hard as nails polish is only $1.37 on sale this week and if you have $1 coupons(8-23 RP, 8-2 RP), that makes your first transaction only $1.11 + tax:
$1.37 x 3 = $4.11 -3 x $1 = $1.11
Since I did a transaction last week, I already had the $5 RR. Well, I found out this register reward automatically scans for $5 off as long as your total is at least $5 + your taxable rate. It is taking off tax as well so my total actually has to be $5 + taxable rate or $5.41 in most of Houston.
So, I did three transactions today as follows:
Trans 1:
2 Sally Hansen @ 1.37 each - 2 x $1 = $.74
1 Sally Hansen @ 1.73 (I wanted the glitter kind for kids Halloween costume) - $5 RR = -$3.27
1 Gallon of milk $2.49
1 set of emery boards $.69 (had to throw this in because of the tax thing I mentioned)
Total cost oop: $0.65
(Notice, I did NOT use a $1 coupon on the 3rd Sally Hansen since I used the $5 RR that states off any Sally Hansen product)
Trans 2 and 3:
3 Sally Hansen @ 1.37 each - 2 x $1 - $5 RR = -$2.89
1 Disney Princess Stainless steel thermos clearanced for $3.74
Total oop: $.92
Great Youth Carseat at an Unbeatable price- BRITAX
When looking for carseats I wanted a 5 point harness seat that would hold my kids until they would no longer need a seat. I have to tell you, there are not many 5 point harness seats that hold a child up to 80 lbs. My dh and I actually joke that our little girls will be in these seats until they are driving,lol! (I have a 3 year old and a 5 year old)
If you are looking for a forward facing carseat for your above 1 year (must weigh at least 22 lbs), trust me, this is a GREAT seat. I just wish I could have gotten my two at such a GREAT price. And there is FREE shipping right now.
Last Day to Load Cellfire, new cycle starts tommorrow
Well, as you have seen from my prior posts, Randalls currently "stacks" savings on a single purchase. If you load the coupons to your Randalls card today, they will still be there tommorrow when the new cycle comes out. Then, tommorrow, go back to cellfire and see what duplicates exist. If a paper coupon is out for the same item, you instantly have 3 times the savings!
Don't waste time, head on over to cellfire and get those coupons loaded before you forget.

Mabel's Labels Review
This particular combo comes with
50 Tag-Mates - peel and stick these to the tags of your child's clothing,
40 Skinny-Minis - these are perfect for school supplies, dishes, toys, etc.
16 Shoe Labels - goes on the insole of the shoe
2 NEW Teeny Tags - metal tags for bags, pencil cases, etc
I do have to admit, I was rather skeptical when I saw that the shoes labels went on the insole and thought there was No way these would hold up. I was willing to give them a try though since nothing else I have been doing has been working. They are GREAT! After a week of my daughter using them and playing outside twice a day(in the TEXAS heat!) they look as good as the day I put them in her shoes.
I placed the Skinny Minis on the little Corningware dishes I have for the kids warmups for lunch(both lid and dish). These have gone through the microwave and dishwasher and the tags have zero wear and tear! They look just as good and vibrant as the day I got them in the mail. I must admit, my older daughter is jealous since I just got the younger ones name on the tags, so looks like I will be placing an order for the older daughter, lol.
I played on their website too and they also make tags for the house. They have labels for your kitchen, crafting products, even labels for power cords.
And for those parents with children with severe allergies(hey Greenie), they even make Allergy Alert labels and Wristbands. These would be especially helpful when a child might be dropped off at a camp, pool or other event where the adults around might not be aware of the child's allergies. They also donate 10% of the proceeds of the wristbands to Autism Speaks.
If you are looking for labels, I highly recommend you give Mabel’s Labels a look.
Disclosure: Mabel’s Labels provided me with this combo pack so that I may write a product review. My product review is an expression of my own honest opinion based on my experience trying this product, and is not reviewed or edited by Mabel’s Labels. Mabel’s Labels does not compensate me in any other way for this product review, nor do I get compensated for any sales.

When my kiddos were little ones, this was a GREAT magazine to have coming. Not only did it have some decent articles, but more important GREAT COUPONS!!!!!

AND since the subscription is FREE, you have nothing to lose. Just fill out the form here to start your free 6 month subscription.

Triple the Pamper Points for Wipes
If you happen to have Swipers wipes, keep in mind there is a code ON the tub(under the lid) and ON the actual package of wipes! That means 6 points if you enter them before 11-05.

Shortcuts coupons added
Don't forget, Randalls combines the shortcuts and cellfire coupons on single purchases!
Kroger Mega Deal highlights
There are a couple items that stand out for this sale. Keep in mind, you must purchase 10 participating items to get the pricing listed here. You can mix and match and I am unsure if Kroger has put a limit on the number of rewards per transaction this time.
Here are some items that I see potential:
Buitoni Angel Hair or Fettuccine pasta selected 9oz varieties .99 each
- $1 printable
or $1 6-21 SS(Houston did not get this coupon)
= FREE
Purina One cat food $4.49
- $3 insert 9-13 RP
= $1.49
Oscar Mayer hot dogs $1.49
- $1/2 insert 8-23 SS
= .99 each
Capri Sun $1.49
-.75 Kraft magazine(home mailer)
= .74
Velveeta cups $.50
-b2g1 coupon found in boxes of Velveeta shells and cheese
= $1/3
Easy mac cups $.50
-$1/5 tearpad
= $1.50/5
Wheat Thins $1.99
- $1 printable
-$1 for Firefox users
= $.99 each
Nabisco Saltines $1.49
- $1/2 insert 8-23 SS
= $ .99 each
Ritz $1.99
-$1/2 insert 8-23 SS
= $1.49
*If you are getting Ritz, you can also use this coupon to get Crackerfuls:
Nabisco Crackerfuls Filled Crackers, Any (1) 6 Oz. + Free WYB (1) Ritz Crackers, Any 13.66 Oz. To 16 Oz. (One Coupon Per Person, Per Transaction) - 08-23-09 SS - valid up to $3.49 (Thanks Mike!)
Oreos $2.47
-$1/2 insert 8-23 SS
=$1.97 each
Also, if you signed up for the Nabisco book I blogged about here , then you should find a $20 rebate form. To get this rebate you need to purchase 5 Capri Sun or Kool Aid jammers, 5 Easy Mac cups and 10 Nabisco cookies or crackers. One scenario using the items from the mega sale as an example:
2 Oreos $1.97 x 2
2 Saltines .99 x 2
2 Wheat Thins .99 x 2
2 Ritz $1.49 x 2
2 Nabisco go cups(not part of mega deal) $1 x 2
5 Easy mac cups $1.50
5 Capri sun(assuming you have 1 coupon) .74 + $1.49 x 4
2 Buitoni(free with printable and to get round out 20 items for mega deal)
Final cost : $21.08 and send for the $20 rebate.
*If you are getting the Ritz and have the free Nabisco Crackerfuls crackers, you could just NOT get the Go Cups and so your new total would be $19.08. So AFTER the cost of your stamp, you would get everything FREE!
Of course there are cheaper ways of doing this, but this gives you an idea of what you can do combining this mega sale with the rebate.
If I see any hidden finds at the store, I will let you know.

Dave Ramsey Sale and Giveaway!
I chose to go through the website and they are having a huge sale right now! $9.99 for most of Dave's books. If you have been wanting his books, now might be the time to purchase them. Keep in mind, you can sometimes find these at the library for free(our library never has them and has a waiting list to get on the hold list). If you cannot find them at the library and don't want to wait for them through PaperbackSwap, then this $9.99 sale is a great deal on these books!

Extra Coupons in the Parade magazine
Also, if you look at the last page of the Houston Chronicle, you will find two Kroger coupons good for today only. One is for $10 off a $50 purchase and the other is for $20 off a $100 purchase. Combined with coupons, you might be able to make good use of those!
And finally, get clipping. There should have been 5 inserts in your paper today and ONE of those inserts should have LOTS of Nestle coupons just in time for the Mega Event starting Wednesday. I hope to have some matchups done and ready later today for you guys.
If you don't purchase newspapers, now might be a good time to check out some Coupon Clipping sites and get those orders in. I don't personally use clipping sites, but from my friends who have, I hear these are two trustworthy sites:

Deal on Enfamil Infant Formula
First, there is a very rare $5 printable right now for any size of Enfamil Premium. You should be able to print twice per computer if you backspace and refresh.
Second, there is a $4 off 2 home mailer or printable Babies R Us coupon. This is a store coupon, so you can use it with your 2 $5 manufacturer printables.
Third, there is a rebate form(pictured above) out right now for $15 back(check) when you buy 2 cans of Enfamil Premium 23.4 oz or larger powder infant formula. (I found this rebate form at my peditrician's office, so I suggest calling yours to see if they may have them as well.)
I checked the online pricing, and it shows Babies R Us currently has this for $24.99 for a 23.4 or 28.1 oz can(these are special 20% more cans that might not be available at all locations).
So here is the breakdown:
2 cans @ 24.99 each = $49.98
- 2 x $5 manuf. IP =-$10
- $4 babies r us Q = -$4
Total oop at register = $ 35.98 or $17.99 a can
Then, keep your receipt(must all be on one) and your upc's from your cans and mail in the rebate for $15
$35.98 - $15 rebate = $20.98 + cost of stamp
That is just $10.49 a can!!!!! For those of you with Enfamil formula checks, you could pay even less out of pocket, possibly getting it free(I know they come out with $11 formula checks!)
Cellfire keeping us on our toes!

Purex 3 in 1 sheet product, need input!
I have not had a chance, but I love this video, it is hilarious! Reminds me of my house as it seems none of us have a sense of hearing around here and say WHAT WHAT? so this is right up my alley.
I would love to hear comments from anyone that have tried this product!! Did it work well????
I can't wait to try this product. It seems nothing I use works well on static cling! Hopefully Purex will have the answer!

Great Deal on Asics
Well, I dragged the family out and my husband found him a pair too. First pair rang up $39.99 and the 20% coupon took $8 off. The second pair rang up $39.99 and $20 came off for the 1/2 sale and $4 came off from the 20% off coupon.
My total after tax for 2 pairs of Asics $51.94!
I usually can't even get 1 pair for that price.
If you don't have a Famous Footwear near you, it appears the sale is also available online with the 20% discount and free ground shipping. (The sale is good for ALL items, not just Asics or tennis shoes. I was informed in store, that it even applies to clearance)
Walgreens deals week of Sept. 6
On my way back into town I asked my husband to stop at the Walgreens around the corner. I had been clipping my coupons all weekend and wanted to take advantage of some freebies before they sold out. Here is what I got:
5 Starbucks ice cream $3 each - $2 insert 6-21 SS
1 Glade Sense and Spray $5.99 - $4 insert 8-23 SS
2 Glade oil candles $2 each - $2 coupon from previous package
2 Snickers dark(fillers) 2/$1.59
-$3 RR and - $4 RR
Paid $1.58 oop and got back
$5 RR from purchasing $15 worth of Starbucks
$2 RR from purchasing Glade Sense & Spray
$1 RR from purchasing 2 Glade oil candles
So my final tally: $3+$4+$1.58 -$5-$2-$1 = $0.58
