Coffee Coffee everywhere and not a drop I'll drink

I have to admit I can't stand coffee! I drank way too much flavored coffee one night in college pulling in all nighter studying for a Diff EQ exam(if you don't understand what that means, good for you, be grateful and walk away Quickly!!!)  and got very sick after my exam (I did pass by the way, if you were curious).
Ever since, I cannot touch coffee.  I love the smell of it brewing but it is sneaky like that.  Smells great but blech to the taste.

Anyway, I was at HEB checking stuff for ibotta and stumbled upon a coffee fanatics fantasy.  Coffee coffee everywhere and most of it half price (yes, terrible play on a terribly popular quote from literature - get over it, lol)

So, I do have all the pics of the tags if you need those? or perhaps I could just type up what I saw??  Check your HEB stores for these clearance prices, great deals to be had on the regular shelf still so should be at more than just my store!
these were all 50% off

ibotta fun today - Last day to earn May Flowers (or 2) bonus


We are at month end and ibotta has some bonuses when you redeem a certain amount of offers in the month of May.  First is May Flowers, redeem 4 offers for a $2 bonus.  The second is May Flowers 2, redeem 5 more offers for a $4 bonus.

OR if you are new to ibotta   you can score $10 bonus for joining and redeeming 5 offers within 2 weeks.  Here are 4 to get you started!  (also if you do these today, you will earn the May Flowers $2 bonus :D)

I was already done with May Flowers and 1 into my May Flowers 2 so I looked today for some offers that would get me 4 more for less than the $4 bonus.  Here is what I was able to do:

Chef Boyardee Ravioli, any size any variety .62
Redeem the .50 ibotta offer
.12 after ibotta
*I purchased at HEB but I noticed Walmart has the same size cans for the same price
Be sure to check your variety, my husband has the spaghetti and meatballs, which is the same price

Dial Gold 2 pack bar soap $.97 (Walmart)
Redeem the .50 ibotta offer
.47 after ibotta

Cocoa Pebbles (11 oz) $1.88 (Food Town pricing, I priced matched at Walmart)
-.75 coupon from prior box - there are also blinkies at Randalls
Redeem the .50 ibotta offer
.63 after ibotta

Capri Sun 10 pack $2 (Walmart)
Redeem the $1 ibotta offer
$1 after ibotta - by itself not a great deal, but rounded out my 4 for the bonus.

So after my 4 offer redemptions, I paid $2.22 but earned my $4 bonus, making a profit of 1.78 on the 4 items above :D

I am loving this app more and more everyday!

Randalls - Some Free J4U coupons and a few more decent deals

Before swinging by Randalls to do your shopping, be sure to check your J4U loadable account again.  Yesterday I did not have this but today, when I go to the coupon center and frozen foods, this Toaster Strudel Free loadable was waiting for me, YAY! - this one might be targeted and not everyone may receive.
Also, if you have not loaded the advertised (so everyone should get) Balance Bar Dark Chocolate. This one can be found under personal care and health in the coupon center.

Then, when you head to the store, here are a few more goodies you might want to add to your shopping list:
Carefree liners .99

*I like to get an idea the contribution of each item toward my $15 goal so 33% of the ring up price is roughly what I estimate as my additonal savings when planning my items and accounting for earning a catalina.  I will post these lines in blue as they are only after catalina savings across the cost of the product - ignore them if this makes no sense to you :D

New offers on Upromise or Saving Star

Saving Star is offering up new offers tonight BUT before you go running to load to your account, consider logging into (or registering) for Upromise first!  WHY?

Well, as I have mentioned in hte past, I MUCH prefer Upromise over Saving Star because with Upromise, I can earn buy the items at 3 stores instead of being limited to just 2.

Upromise has been around for a long time and is managed by the folks of Saving Star but then they branched out and started Saving Star.  What is interesting is many of the coupons are the same offerings on both platforms, but only Kroger and CVS have signed on with Saving Star.  With Upromise, you purchases can be done at Kroger, CVS OR Randalls, making a better chance of actually finding a great deal.
Well, up until now, Upromise has not offered the one or many offers like the Little Debbie above, but tonight it appears that has changed, woo hoo!

So, either load to Upromise or Saving Star these offers, but keep in mind, the savings are the same at both, but with Upromise, you have one more store to play with :D

Don't know much about either program, see my detailed post here.

Randalls - Good deal on Charmin, beans and DP

Don't know how to shop Randalls, read my guide here.
Looking through the ad last night, I noticed a few items that I wanted to check out today and I have to say I am pretty happy with my finds.

Gold Peak tea $1
Use $0.35 printable coupon
Free after first identical coupon triples

Heinz Homestyle Beans $.99 after in ad coupon
Use $0.30 coupon from 5/19 Smart Source insert
$0.09 after first identical coupon triples

2 Dr Pepper Ten 2 liters $0.88 each after in ad coupon
Use the bogo printable (mine auto deducted 1.99)
Better than free after bogo coupon and in ad coupon sale price

Finish and Charmin are part of the promo of buy 2 participating items get $6 off.  The cool thing about the promos like this at Randalls is that you only have to have at least 2 items, NOT groups of 2.  Each participating item will take $3 off the price as long as you buy at least 2, I did 3
*Hopefully most of you have most the same offers on the Charmin to get this great deal!

Finish Auto Dish Detergent 45-60 ct $8.99 after J4U loadable, limit 2
-$3 for the above mentioned promo
-.75 printable for 1st one
-.25 coupon from 5/19 Smart Source insert (1st like triples)
$5.24 each (.09 a tab)

Charmin Ultra Soft 24 double roll toilet paper $13.99
*-$2.18 J4U personalized price (I have PP of $11.81 unlimited)
-$3 for the above mentioned promo
-$1 J4U loadable coupon on Charmin 12 roll or larger
=$7.81 and I will earn $1 for loading my Upromise coupon - expires 5/29 but they might offer a new one next month
So $6.81 for 24 double rolls (~48 rolls) = .14 a roll!

*Some of you might ALSO have the 10% off bath tissue which should take off from the 13.99 price or 1.40 more so just .11 a roll

Even doing two would be a good deal as you can use the $1 loadable for first and 2nd one use the .25 insert from 5/12 P&G insert.  It will triple to .75 savings. You won't get double Upromise but still comes out to a buy price in my book! (2nd pkg would cost ~ .17 a roll)

Free Language Learning With Duolingo


Just in case some of you didn't know, there exists this website. Duolingo is one of the most popular language learning services out there and it's FREE. Just visit their webpage and check it out.

Also their app is free too, on both iPhone and Android.

Their recently released speech recognition feature is available only online and iOS, but Android is scheduled to receive it "soon". Whatever that means.

So no more excuses! Go learn something! I intend to learn just enough to get into trouble.

Kingsford Charcoal at Walmart - pretty good deal

If you are in need of some Charcoal, you might want to find your way to Walmart no later than Monday.   They are having a Memorial Day sale that is actually cheaper by the lb then the promo at Lowe's.

Walmart is selling a 2 pack of 15 lb bags for just $6.98.  This comes to just .23/lb.  (The Lowe's offer is 40 lbs for $9.99 or .25/lb)
This is a one time offer and not the standard size they carry so look for a pallet in the front part of the store not the garden center and be sure you are picking up the 15 lb bags NOT the 13.3 lbs.

Houston Chronicle Home Delivery - As low as $26

I just received an email that Groupon is once again offering up their HOT Houston Chronicle subscription offer.
For just $25, you can receive Wednesday and Sunday home delivery for 26 weeks.  Opt for the whole year (52 weeks) and pay just $49.  I signed up last time this offer was available because it by far beats any rate offered now to new customers.

This offer is for new customers only and only 1 per person.  You have to not have had home delivery for at least 30 days to be eligible for this offer.

*If you are a current subscriber and still have that awesome $0.50 rate they offered a few years ago, be sure to call to see if you can renew at that rate, some of my readers have been lucky and been able to continue that offer.

Decent Double Dip at Walgreens - Free Neosporin


If you are like me, you might have some $7 register rewards from the week before last that is about to expire.  If so, you might want to make it down to Walgreens today, as this is a one day only deal.

Neosporin .5 oz is buy 1 get 1 50% off, ending today
Starting tomorrow, Neosporin is on sale for $3.99, buy 2 get 2000 points ($2 value min)

For today only, the sale is stacking as follows:
First one rings up $3.99 sale price that starts tomorrow
$1.99 for the second one - taking the 50% sale for this week
=$5.98
Use 2 $2 coupon here and here
You will pay $1.98 but get 2000K points back

I combined this with the Crest toothpaste deal from this week
2/$7 - 2 $1 insert = $5 earn $5 register reward

Since I was using my $7 register reward, I had to throw in a "filler" item so I chose the gelatin since there is a 3/$1 in ad coupon.

But don't forget, both these deals must be done today only :D

Thanks Ivonne
