New WEBSITE!

Just letting everyone know that my new Website is finally up and running!  It is not completely done so bear with me as I keep updating.  The address is http://www.becauseshesaid.net/    I missed bloging, even though sometimes it made me crazy!  The coupon info is under because I save money.  Let me know what you think!

UPDATE!  UPDATE!  UPDATE!

Just letting you all know that I am putting a new site together so stay tuned!

Thanks for your support!

Saying goodbye!

I just want to say thanks to everyone who has followed my blog, taken my class, emailed, commented and said hello to me in the stores!  I have totally enjoyed getting to meet all of you and hope that you continue to coupon.  I just simply do not have the time for this blog which makes me sad, but I don't like to do things half-way and always feel guilty for not getting updates done.
I will still answer questions if you want to email coupongals@live.com. 
Thanks again for your support and as always, Happy Shopping!
Nicole

Hidden Double Coupon Ideas

I went shopping yesterday but have not had time to post my pictures.  I few things that we found while shopping.

Glade Candles, some were on closeout for $2.00 the rest are on sale for $2.49.  Used $1.00 off from 8/1 SS so with a doubler they are free or $.49.

Also Glade Scented Oil refills were $2.00, used $1.00 off from 8/1 SS and doubled it so they were FREE!

I found Hormel Always Tender Pork Chops, used $1.00 off from 8/1 SS and doubled it.  I got one package for $.63, one for $.84 and I bought 3 racks of ribs, each about $7.00 (which is something my family loves and I never buy).  Anything with the Always Tender Hormel label will work.

LA Looks Hair Gel $2.99, use $1.00 off form 5/23 SS or 8/1 RP.  Final price $.99.

El Monterey 2 Pack Burritos, $.99 each.  Used $1.00/5 from 5/16 SS and doubled it.  Final price was $.79 for a 2 pack.

Cinnabon Cracker and Cereal were both on sale for $2.50.  Used the $1.00 coupon from the Parade magazine 8/15 and doubled it.  Final price was $.50 a box. 

Happy shopping everyone!

Double Coupons are coming!

Just giving you all a heads up that we are getting Albertson's Twice the Value Coupons (aka Doubles!) this Sunday! 
At the Burley store they will let you do 3 separate transactions in one trip.  Meaning you used to spend 3 doubles, go out to your car, come back, spend 3 more, go out to your car etc...
Now you can use 3 doubles, put the space bar, do a 2nd transaction using 3 more doubles, space bar, 3rd transaction using 3 more doubles.  Then go out to your car, come back in and do another 2 or 3 transactions depending on how many you have.
Remember you cannot make money on doubles.  Meaning if the price of the item is $1.99 and you have a $1.00 coupon, then the double will be worth $.99 instead of $1.00.
You can also use doubles on any coupon $1.00 or less in value EVEN if it says do not double on it!
Happy Shopping everyone!

Late night shopping, total spent $5.84, saved $44.70

6 boxes of Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks $2.00 each, used 3- $.50/2 coupons; 2 Betty Crocker Cake Mixes $1.00 each, 2 Betty Crocker Frostings $1.50 each, used 2- $.50/2 coupons.  Got $5.00 off instantly, paid with a $5.00 catalina from last week, total OOP $5.22, saved $22.80 and got a $3.00 catalina for the fruit snacks.

10 Bisquik Shake 'n Pour Pancake mixes $1.00 each, used 2- $2.00/5 coupons that I bought a couple months ago on Ebay; 1 gallon of milk $2.19.  Got $5.00 off instantly, paid with my $3.00 catalina from the first transaction.  Total OOP $.62, saved $21.90!

Time for a contest!

I haven't been doing much shopping lately and I am feeling a little disconected so let's have some fun!  I would like to see what everyone else is buying, how much money you are saving or even just your attempt at saving.  Email your picture to coupongals@live.com or just post a comment. 

We will pick a winner (using random.org) and the prize will be a personal consultation/shopping trip with Nicole!  I feel a little strange because maybe no one will think this is cool, but I have people comment all the time that they would love to go shopping with me.  (Or at least have me do their shopping!)

The contest will last until Saturday, Aug 21st at 10:00 am.  Can't wait to hear and see what you have been up to!

I guess I should say that you have to live in the Burley/Rupert or Twin Falls area.

Thanks to Nicke for the heads up on this great deal for breastfeeding moms.

Go to uddercovers.com and use code “cousin2” and it brings the price form $32 to $0. It has to be a limited time thing. you still have to pay shipping which is $9.95 but I honestly could not buy the fabric and materials to make one for that cheap!

Not moving yet

 

Anyone want to buy my house?  We thought we were moving but the deal fell through.  I am still thinking of having a moving/garage sale.  Anyone want to join in?

Looks like we will be getting a Smart Source and a Red Plum on Sunday!

Christmas in July Sale

Just thought I would let you know about a sale that I happened to find.  QVC (yes the channel on TV) is having a Christmas in July sale that ends tonight at midnight.  I got the 2 Temptations Monaco serving pieces shown above for $19.32 plus $11.00 shipping. It would have been $7.57 shipping but I actually ordered 2 sets.  It may not sound like that good of a deal BUT my plan is to split them up for Christmas gifts so that is 4 gifts at $12.41 each.  These are awesome because they are oven safe to 500 degrees, you can mix whatever you are baking right in the pot and then put it in the oven.  They are non-stick so cleanup is great.  Anyway if you check out the sale, make sure you click on the clearance tab on the far right to see the best deals.  Happy Christmas Shopping!

Don't Forget to order your Bountiful Basket!

Go to Bountifulbaskets.org to order.  They start taking orders tonight at 8:00 and go until they are sold out or until Tuesday night at 11pm.  There are 2 locations in Burley, one in Malta, one in Jerome and one in Kimberly.  The location in Twin Falls is only every other week and I didn't check to see if this is the week or not.  I love this program!

Ridley's doubles coupons on Tuesdays!

Has anyone tried this yet?  I have never made it over to Ridley's so I am just curious if anyone has been doubling on Tuesdays?  Please comment and tell us what you know!
Sales start on Tuesdays and go until the following Monday. See your weekly ad here
Ridley’s Family Markets have locations throughout Idaho, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming.

They are now DOUBLING COUPONS EVERY TUESDAY!

$.25 coupons will be doubled to $.50 coupons

$.50 and $.75 coupons will be doubled to $1.00 coupons
They will NOT double $1.00 coupons or higher.

Don't forget to print...

It is the last week of the month so make sure you print anything that you might want before they are gone!  Remember that coupons.com always resets at the end of the month and some will return and some will not.  Other sites to check are smartsource.com, redplum.com, shortcuts.com (hit the printable tab).

No Doubles today...

but we did get a Smart Source, a Red Plum and some coupons in the Parade Magazine.  There is $1.00 off Olay Facial Mousturizer or Facial Cleanser, $.50 off any Walgreens Brand over-the-counter medication, and $3.00 on Bausch & Lomb PreserVision Eye Vitamin Formula.

What's for dinner?

I thought you might like another recipe and since I have bags of pasta and tons of frozen chicken I thought I would give this a whirl!  All I can say is Yummie!

Grilled Chicken with Lemon Basil Pasta

Ingredients


4 whole Grilled Chicken Breasts, Sliced
1 pound Penne Pasta, Cooked Until Al Dente
½ sticks Butter
3 whole Lemons, Juiced
¾ cups Heavy Cream
¼ cups Half-and-half
1-½ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese (or Romano)
Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper, To Taste
20 whole Basil Leaves, Chopped

Preparation Instructions

Cook pasta, reserving 1 cup of hot pasta water when you drain. Set pasta aside in a colander.

In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Squeeze in the juice of 3 to 4 lemons. Whisk together. Pour in cream and half-and-half. Whisk until hot. Dump in cheese and whisk until melted. Add salt and pepper. Check consistency, adding some of the hot pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed.

Pour pasta and sauce into a large serving bowl. Sprinkle remaining basil all over the top, then add sliced chicken breasts. Serve immediately!

I found this recipe on thepioneerwoman.com
Enjoy!

Bountiful Baskets

I am so bummed!  I missed getting a Bountiful Basket for the second week in a row!  I can't believe how fast they sell out.  I have about 6 people wanting one in Declo, has anyone found a location? Emailed Bountiful Baskets?  Does anyone know if Malta is getting one?  Just curious because I am missing my fresh produce.

Coupons in Sunday;'s paper

Did you all see the coupon for a FREE 12 oz Fruit Smoothie or Frappe found in the 7/18 Parade. Coupon expires 8/15.

Also in the Parade were
$1.00 off any two packages of Kelloggs FiberPlus cereal or chewy bars
$.50 off any Walgreens Brand over the counter medication

And we got a Smart Source insert.

Just for your info...

I just wanted you all to know that we are moving to Pocatello in a few weeks.  I am sad to say goodbye to Burley and all my fellow shoppers! 
We are looking for a house to rent/lease in Pocatello if anyone knows of a decent place, please, please let me know!
It is a little scary when you have owned a home for the last 20 years and have to go back to renting!

By the way, we will be having a HUGE moving sale in a few weeks!  I will keep you posted!

Smith's Sale 7/14 through 7/21

I (Nicole) have not found the time to do the matchups so I am totally cheating and sending you the links to other blogs.  Sheri (bless her soul!) will be handling Smith's from now on!   Just remember that these postings both come out of the Boise area and they get different coupons then we do.

Here is what Fabulessly Frugal is posting http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/2010/07/smiths-deals-714-720.html

Here is what The Krazy Coupon Lady is posting http://thekrazycouponlady.com/2010/07/smiths-coupon-deals-week-of-714.html

Fabulous recipe using our stockpile items.

Here is the link so she gets credit: http://makingmemorieswithyourkids.blogspot.com/2010/06/smores-stuffed-brownies.html

S'Mores Stuffed Brownies

When I saw this post over at Picky Palate I knew it was a recipe I had to try. I love s'mores and I love brownies! What better than to smash the two together?! Seriously. These S'more Stuffed Brownies are incredible! And I don't mean, "huh, those are good" incredible. I mean "holy heck, these rock!" incredible!

What you will need:

* 1 box of brownie mix

* ingredients needed to make the brownies

* 16 large marshmallows

* chocolate bars

* graham crackers

What to do:

* Make the brownie mix according to the package.

* Pour half of the batter in a 9 x 9 pan that you lined with tin foil and sprayed with non-stick spray. (This makes them easier to remove... seriously)!

* Cover the batter with graham crackers.

* Cover the graham crackers with the chocolate bars. (Get creative here if you would like. I made another batch using Reese's Peanut Butter Cups instead. Delish!)

* Cover with marshmallows. (I used the big marshmallows but next time I make these, and there will definitely be a next time, I will use the mini marshamllows and see how that works.)

* Now pour the remaining brownie batter over the top.

* Bake at 350 degrees for 40 - 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out fairly clean.

* Let cool completely! (This is important. I was a little too eager and tried to cut them while they were still a little warm. It was messy! But still delicious!) =o)

Now go grab a glass of ice cold milk and enjoy!

Just want to make sure everyone got a Red Plum, a Smart Source, Albertson's Doublers and a Sarah Lee coupon out of the Parade magazine.

Let me know if you find any great double ideas!

Stockpile help

I want to help us use our stockpiles. The first thing I'd like to do is address any needs. Do you have something in your stockpile that you have no idea how to use (hey, it was probably free right?)? Do you have groceries that you need new ideas how to cook because you are tired of the same old recipe? Do you have fun and creative ideas of how you've used items from your stockpiles?

2 inserts this Sunday!

We will be getting a Smart Source and a Red Plum this Sunday.  Still hoping for Doubles but haven't got it confirmed yet!

Print your Mission Tortillas coupon quick before they are gone!

Bountiful Basket update

I have had a few questions about Bountiful Baskets so I am answering them on here instead of individually.
If you log in and the location that you want does not show up then that means they are sold out.  Each location is set up to get a certain amount and when they are all purchased then the location no longer shows up.  When you go in and order, it will show how many are available next to the location.  I ordered Monday night at 9:00 and there were 18 left (out of 100 for Burley). 
If anyone would like to start another location, you go to bountifulbaskets.org and email them to set one up.  You will need to have a location that you can use year round that is free to use.  Everything is run by volunteers so make sure you have a few people that will not leave you hangin'! 
I have heard rumors that they are starting one in Malta but I don't know where. 
You can start ordering Monday night at 8:00 pm, pickup is on Saturday and the time depends on which location you are going to.
Hope this helps!

3 responses so far!

Just to update everyone, I have had 3 responses to my plea for help!  One would like to cover yard sales and how to use our stockpiles, the others are just willing to help.  If you would like to help please let me know! 
I probably need to clarify a few things.  To handle a store you just need to have access to the weekly ad (from the newspaper) and have a few hours to go through and matchup what we have coupons for and post it online.  I will give more details on how this works to whomever is helping.  If you know anyone who works at the store that you choose to cover, you can ask them to please email or call you if there is a deal that they would like to have posted.  You do not have to be in the store more then your regular shopping trip.  Also if you have signed up for product newsletters and you get an email for a link to a coupon, you can share that on the blog. 
Thanks for all your patience this week!

1 insert this Sunday

We will be getting the new P&G this Sunday.  Hopefully some great coupons!

Just getting your attention!

I am finally coming to the conclusion that I am not wonderwoman (I never was this version but one can dream right)  and can no longer do everything!  I know those of you who know me well are probably shocked beyond belief to know that these words are coming out of my mouth!  So needless to say, I am either looking for 3-10 people who are interested in helping with this blog or I am going to have to pull the plug. 
I am thinking that if each person picked a store (Smith's, Walgreen's, Albertson's, Walmart, etc.) then it would be alot less time consuming, PLUS we would cover more and the site would be alot better.  I would love to have more content, businesses who would give us coupongals deals, yard sale posts, posts on how to use our storage, in other words the potential is endless! 
If you are interested please email coupongals@live.com and leave me your phone number and I will call you asap!   Just FYI, there is no compensation EXCEPT for the joy that comes from knowing that you have helped others save money and feed their families.  I truly, truly have enjoyed getting to know so many new people and seeing lives change!  The best payment I can get is when I get emails or see people and they tell me how they didn't have to forclose on their house, or they got to send a child to college, or that they can afford medication, braces, vehicles, surgeries...  You would all be amazed if you had heard all the stories that I have. 
Hope to hear from some of you soon, doesn't matter if you are in the Burley area or Twin.  We can cover any stores that you guys are willing to help with.
Thanks to all of you who follow the blog, hopefully we can keep it going!
