Frugal Tip
Meijer's run for the week
Cheap snack foods this week. Pizza Rolls aren’t good for you AT ALL but when you want to eat crap fast, they work well.
Buy 2 Cheerios Snack Mix
2 Pizza Rolls
4 I Can’t believe It’s Not Butter (replace with Chex Mix it you don’t use)
2 Chex Mix
Use the following printable coupons:
2 Pizza Rolls (.50 coupons and they double)
2 Cheerios Snack Mix (.55 coupon)
2 I Can’t Believe (.50 doubled)
2 I Can’t Believe (.75 coupon)
1 Chex Mix (.60 off 2 coupon)
- add 2 more Chex coupons if you replace it for the butter
PLUS, you get a free item when you buy this stuff!! There carrots, bread, toothpaste, and all sorts of stuff you can get. It is listed in their flyer, you get at the entrance. Anything marked 10 for $10 get the 11th free.
Your total will be under $3 if you do the butter and if you do the Chex option it will be a little over $5.

My Frugal/Green Tip of the week
I have been trying to better a better steward of the earth. It is hard when I work full time, raise two kids, and am just plain lazy. I need certain convenience products to make it through the day. One of these is my Swiffer Wet Jet. I LOVE this thing. WELL, I have learned that I can take the top off and fill with the cleaning solution of my choice. Let me tell you, I don't think they really want you to do this cause that sucker is on TIGHT but it can be done. Soak the top in hot water for a minute or so and use some pliers and VIOLA! So I filled it with vinegar and water. It did a good job and my house only smelled like a pickle for a short time. Now when The Bug runs across the wet floor I don't have to worry about her getting all those chemicals on her, just that she will smell like a gherkin!
Life is good!
Life is good!

Deals at Target this week
Friends have told me that i need to post the deals I do on this blog and spread the love. So I am going to let you in on my Target deals. I have web sites that I visit for printable coupons, one being www.hotcouponworld.com.
Nature Valley Granola Bars are 2 for $4 this week. There is a Target coupon (TQ) for .75 off one and a printable manufacturers coupon (MQ) for .80 off 2. This makes them .85 a box. I plan to get 4 boxes.
Morningstar Farms Veggie Products are 2.99 at out Target, there is a TQ for 2.00 any M-Star product. This will make them .99 a box, I plan to get 5.
Tava Beverages are 2.50 and there is a 1.50 printable MQ, making them 1.00 a 4 pack. I plan to buy 4.
Luv's Diapers are on sale (unconfirmed) for 6.99. I have a 2.00 MQ and there is a 1.50 MQ so they would be around 3.50 a pack. I am getting one as that is the only MQ I have and I have a wall of diapers from my CVS deals.
So the rundown is this:
4 packs of granola bars
5 packs Morningstar
4 packs Tava
1 pack Luv's
----------------
Before Coupons - 39.94
After Coupons - 15.85
And people make fun of me for couponing!!!!
