Tip of the Day: Don't Leave Coupons By the Sink

I'm not sure what I was thinking, and I have to confess that I do it all the time...

I left my printable coupons on my bar top in front of the sink while I was washing dishes. Needless to say, my coupons got splashed and the ink on a few bled right over the barcode!

Clearance Shopping 2/24

I headed over to Babies R Us and Kmart today to see what clearance deals I could find. If you haven't seen my Babies R Us post regarding the 25% off clearance (household cleaning supplies, snack & adult care) coupon valid through 2/25, I suggest you go HERE!

Here's what I purchased today:



Babies R Us

Method 32 Load Laundry detergent $1.23 (after 25% off & manufacturer coupon)
Swiffer Duster Starter Kit $1.23 (after 25% off & manufacturer coupon)
Neutrogena Face Lotion $2.98 (after 25% off coupon)

Total = $5.44 + tax

Notes: I was extremely excited about the Neutrogena lotion because that's the only kind I use, and normally it costs $11.99! They had quite a few Method & Seventh Generation items on clearance...2 of my favorite GREEN products! The cashier also threw in a coupon booklet in my bag which included a 20% off Any Baby Item coupon. YAY!!


Kmart

2 Valentine's Day Plush in Tin $0.99 each!

Total = $1.98 + tax

Notes: All the Valentine's Day cards & plush toys were on clearance for 90% off! I'm planning on using the plush dog as a diaper cake topper for a baby shower gift, and the tin to hold all of the goodies I plan on giving my sister as a housewarming gift.

FINAL COST FOR TODAY: $8.79 (including tax)

Instant Win Game: Pace Hand-Pick & Win 2

If you’re feeling lucky go on over HERE to play Pace’s Hand-Pick & Win 2 game. 1 in 20 wins a coupon for a free jar of Pace Salsa. No purchase necessary – Just register and click “Get one here” on their site for a free code. You can play once a day AND you can win up to 5 prizes during the promotion. Promotion ends 7/31/2010 so you have plenty of time to win!!

Update: I FINALLY won today (8/15)…this time around instead of printing the coupon immediately, they snail mail it to you in 4-6 weeks.

Recipe of the Week: Chicken Cordon Bleu

This is my hubby's favorite dish. I make different variations of this meal using whatever meat and/or cheese that I have readily available. The alternative ingredients that I occassionally use are in parentheses.




Ingredients (Serving Size: 4)

* 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (flattened)
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 4 slices Muenster cheese (or Swiss, White Cheddar, etc)
* 4 slices cooked ham (or pastrami)
* 1/2 cup crushed Ritz crackers (or bread crumbs, seasoned)


Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Flatten chicken breasts to 1/4 inch thickness.
3. Sprinkle each piece of chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Place 1 cheese slice and 1 ham slice on top of each breast. Roll up each breast, and secure with a toothpick. Place in baking dish, and sprinkle chicken evenly with crumbs.
4. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink.


Thrifty Tip: Stock up on meats when you find them at rock bottom prices, and freeze them in serving size portions.

My Swagbucks Freebie

Look what I got in the mail today...




I have been using Swagbucks for a little less than a year now, and every time I hit 45 bucks, I've been redeeming them for $5 Amazon gift cards. Well, a few days ago I cashed in a few to purchase a new programmable coffeemaker! I LOVE coffee in the morning, so now the coffee is ready for me when I wake up...and to know that the coffeemaker was FREE makes me a VERY HAPPY Thriftaholic!!

Thrifty Tip: Rainchecks

Ever go to a store just to be disappointed that the item you wanted was OUT OF STOCK?
Usually if a store is having an amazing sale, chances are they are going to run out fast. Just because you missed out doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of the special promotion as well. Don’t shy away from asking for a raincheck. I LOVE rainchecks because they usually do not have an expiration date! It’s a great way to save money…who knows, next week you might just find a coupon to make it an even sweeter deal!!
