Target - Clearance Alert !!!

I went to Target today with my list of items and matching coupons and quickly checked out the toy section for any new clearance. I shop year around for Christmas and Birthdays so I made it my habit to always check the aisles...just in case! Today I found a few items I thought I would share that I did not pick up but thought they might be perfect for someone else.

Please Note: Prices listed below are sticker prices. They may be CHEAPER since I didn't scan the items.

Lego Space Police Set - Now $50.48 (Regular $100.99)
DPCI: 204 00 0164
Legos RARELY go beyond 50%. So if you want this item, now is the time to act. Take the DPCI and check here for availability for your store or through Target's website. NEVER call the store to check. Often times employees will scan the item and realize what a great deal it is...and wipe the store out.












Playskool Adventure Heros (Police and Fire) - Now $14.98 (Regular $29.99)
DPCI: 204 03 1388

Rite Aid - Breathe Right Strips - FREE

If you print the coupon here you can score a free box of breathe right strips AND if you wait until next week (May 8 - May 14) you can also score an UP Reward with this product.

This is VERY IMPORTANT. Do not in any way abuse this coupon. It is ONE PER CUSTOMER and should mean one per person or household. Once a coupon is abused it ruins it for the rest of the couponing community. I will step off my soap box now :)

Thanks Slickdeals!

My Madness...

I thought I would share what my dining room table looks like while I try to figure out my personal deals for the week but also what it may look like when figuring out the weekly flyers for you. I call this my madness. Or as my husband calls it my chaos. I am normally a very organized person but when it comes to bargain hunting everything is fair game.

I have my stacks of weekly coupons with each date labeled with a Sharpie on the front so I don’t have to look at the teeny tiny font on the side of the flyer each time I’m looking for a certain date. I also have them stacked in order with newest on top and all the same together (5/1 SS, 5/1 RP, etc).

Back in the day when I first started Bargain Hunting (2007) I used to cut the coupons out every week and put them in my binder. However since I became a “victim” of the corporate downsizing in February 2011 I haven’t been cutting them. Instead I stack and label them and use two coupon databases online to help me search for the coupons I need. Now this CAN hinder a great deal on the fly, but at some point I just decided I would write down any deals I see and come back later. If they are there, great! If not, it wasn’t meant to be. It’s just so time consuming now to clip coupons and run the blog so I just wait LOL.

You will see my binder which has plastic inserts for holding baseball cards. These are perfect for storing clipped coupons. Inside the binder I also have two pencil cases; one for all my Target coupons and one for storing misc coupons that I haven’t sorted yet. Eventually, since I am not clipping my Sunday inserts I will use the binder for all my printable coupons from the Internet. But as you can see I also have a stack of those waiting to be clipped. Sigh…

I also have envelopes for each store that I visit (Shaw’s, Market Basket, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-Mart, Target, etc.) along with a pad of paper and pen. This is my “shopping list” that I prepare before I step out the door. I search the flyers for the weekly deals and other blogs to see if there is anything I am missing then search the coupon databases to match coupons. I put each store’s stack of coupons in an envelope with the list and that is all I should get when I go to the store. Every now and then I do get more then I wrote down but I’m really trying to stick with the list for my budget.

So this is my madness…what I do when I’m search for you or myself. I have my computer powered up and ready to help me work the deals and also tell you about what you can find at the stores. Only thing missing from the picture is my big cup of coffee every morning. And yes I DID get the coffee at a great price too!
