Free Ticket to see The Squeakquel- with Purchase


My daughter has already seen the Squeakquel and she loved it! I didn't get a chance to go because our little one just won't sit through movies quite yet, so I might just have to take my oldest again so I can see it.

If you are planning on seeing the movie, you may want to check out Amazon first. Right now, they have a deal to score a free movie ticket when you purchase 1 of 25 dvds or Blu-rays(movie ticket value up to $7.50 with dvd purchase or $10 with Blu-Ray purchase).
Thank you pooh5497 for the headsup!

New Loadable Site for Randalls



It just keeps getting better and better for Safeway shoppers (Tom Thumb and Randalls for my TX readers). Safeway has teamed up with coupons.com to provide loadable coupons now too. I loaded some coupons I thought would have potential and printed those same coupons on a separate computer(I am not sure you can load and print from the same computer as I have not tried, but it might be possible- I loaded coupons from work-since I can't print - and printed from home)

Anyway, go to this link to load some coupons to your Randalls(Safeway) card

and when you are done, try this link to print the coupons!

I found some GREAT deals (in my next post) on the Aveeno and the Betty Crocker fruit snacks. I have not confirmed yet if any of the other coupons would make a good deal. I do know the 100 Calorie packs are on sale for $2 and my Randalls does not sell the 36 count Sudafed.

Randalls - More good FREEBIES!

I heard about a catalina deal at Randalls on Betty Crocker fruit snacks(confirmed when I got it today and the informational catalina as well- good until 1-24) Well, since I also had 5 loadables, I decided to score some fruit snacks! I also took advantage of the new loadable site that was just made available for Randalls and they paid me to purchase some Aveeno Anti-Itch cream(this will come in handy come mosquito season- and it is PINK so my girls LOVE it)



Please remember my Randalls will double one like coupon up to .50 and triple one like coupon up to .39.



Here is my breakdown:

2 Betty Crocker fruit roll ups snacks $2 each - 2 .50/2 cellfire - .50/2 IP = $2
1 Betty Crocker shaped snacks $2 each - 2 .40 cellfire - .40 IP = .40
-$1.50/2 loadable*
1 Aveeno Anti-Itch $3.19 - $2 loadable - $2 IP = -.81
Cost oop: .09

Earned $1.50 catalina for purchasing 3 BC fruit snacks



*The $1.50/2 loadable for the fruit snacks actually showed up in the ring up price not the end of the receipt. One rang up $2, the other .50 on the receipt.

Also, to maximize and confirm all loadables came off for the snacks I had to purchase 2 from the fruit by the foot, stickerz etc line(cellfire has the listed ones) and one "shapes" item.


The second transaction I did on my mom's card to use up some of her loadables. As a reminder and for the new readers, I shop the deals for 4 households(putting my math degree to good use, lol).

Here is the breakdown on this transaction:

1 Cinnamon toast crunch $2.49 - .55 shortcuts - $1 IP = 0.94

1 Trix $2.49 - 2 .55 cellfire - .55 IP = 0.84

1 Cheerios $2.49 - 2 .55 cellfire - .55 IP = 0.84

-$3 wyb 3 cereal(automatic)

3 Nature Valley Nut Clusters $2.50 each - $1 shortcuts - 1 .50 insert 1-3 GM - 2 $1 IP = $3.50

1 Nature Valley granola bars $2.50 - .40 cellfire - .40 IP = 1.30

-4 in ad coupon for 4 Nature Valley products

1 Betty Crocker pototoes $1.69 - 2 .40 cellfire - .40 shortcuts -.40 IP = -0.31

1 Yakisoba $1 - .50 insert = FREE

4 Glade candles $3.49 each - $3 peelie - 3 $2 Parade = $4.96

-$2.50 catalina from NV deal I did yesterday

-$1.50 earned from Trans #1

Tax: .06

Cost oop: $1.13

Earned $2.50 for purchasing 4 Nature Valley products and $5 for purchasing 4 Glade Fragrance Collection items



Total cost for the day: .09 oop - $1.50 cat + 2.50 cat spent + 1.50 cat spent + 1.13 oop - $2.50 cat - $5 cat = $3.78 profit

Randalls run to get my cheap/free Cheerios

I wanted to go to Randalls to get some Cheerios as they have a deal right now that if you purchase 3, they are just $1.49 a box(for Cheerios and a select few other GM cereals). Well, I had loadables for Cheerios, Trix and Cinnamon Toast Crunch so thought I would get one of each to deflate the cost of my other items, but they were out of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I was happy to get two boxes of Cheerios anyway.

Here is my breakdown:

2 Cheerios $2.49 each -2 .55 cellfire - 2 $1 IP or IP
1 Trix $2.49 - 2 .55 cellfire - $1 IP - $3 wyb 3 = -0.73
3 Nature Valley Nut Clusters $2.50 each - 3 $1 IP
1 Nature Valley granola bars $2.50 - 2 .40 cellfire - .40 IP - $4 in ad coupon* = $1.40
1 MOM trial size $2.49 - FREE with card = FREE
2 International Delight creamer .99 each - Frees from facebook
1 John Frieda Root Awakening $5.49 - 2 $2 cellfire - $2 IP = -0.51
2.4 lbs bananas 1.18
1 18 count eggs $1.89 - .91 in ad coupon* = 0.98
1 gallon milk 1.99 - $1 in ad coupon* = .99
Tax: .19
Cost oop: $3.50

Earned $2.50 oynso catalina for purchasing 4 Nature Valley Granola Bars or Nut Clusters.

So total cost today .98

*I forgot to bring my Sunday ad that had the Super coupons for the eggs, milk, and Nature Valley and the store didn't have any like they normally do. I went to service desk when I arrived in inquire about it and the clerk and store manager both told me they didn't know what happened to all the copies, but if I had the upc code from the coupons I could use that at checkouts, so that is what I did for the .98 eggs, .99 milk and 4/$6 Nature Valley.

Lucky for me I have GREAT coupon friends that take my calls, THANKS COURTNEY for the coupon codes!!!!!!

Free Veggies at Kroger

I really have not been shopping Kroger much but when I heard I could possibly get FREE veggies, I had to make time in my schedule to stop in and check it out!
It seems TRUE we can get FREE veggies right now at Kroger!

Libby's canned Corn or Green Beans are on sale for 2/$1

There is a $1 printable found here that will make them free. You should be able to print 2 of these per computer!



Other deals I didn't get a chance to take advantage of due to short prep time(have a sick kiddo AGAIN!)



Progresso soup on sale for $1.25 each. If you have .50/2 cellfire or shortcuts, combine with .25 insert or .50/2 insert

This will make them as cheap as .25-.50 each depending on your loadables and the variety you buy

If you have any of the no longer available $1.10 High Fiber IPs, potential small money maker



If you have any of the Betty Crocker potatoes loadables for .40 from cellfire or shortcuts you can combine that with printable here for free pouch of potatoes

Thanks to Courtney for the info on the Libby's printable!
