My friend is hooked, and she ROCKS!!

I first told my friend Sarah about couponing and rebates about a year ago. She is very organized, always planned meals before she shopped. She is a very busy person, and really didn't feel there was time to clip coupons and save $.40 on Ragu. Well look at her now. This is her first trip to Albertson's and only her second couponing excursion. She has only been collecting coupons for three weeks.
The breakdown:
5 transactions and bought 66 items (5 jars Ragu still in trunk)
(ave. 68 cents per item).
reg. Albs Prices of all items: 223.76
Sale Albs prices of all items: 134.26
Paid OOP for all items: 45.13

A week in FREE...or pert near

So if you know me at all, it may seem that my ultimate goal in life is something for nothing. Better yet something for a possitive return. This week I began to reep rewards from my ever flattening butt in front of my laptop, mostly to the credit of the new freebie website. I have recieved free Blue Bunny ice cream bars for the whole family, two digital converters with antennas, Oscar Mayer BEEF hotdogs(they are around $4 a pack, we rarely get the all beef), free Hershey's candy, free root beer floats, and a $25 Restaurant.com certificate for $5 to Brick 29 in Nampa. (p.s. If you have not been to this Bistro, it is a must try!!) Also, to the credit of Yardsalequeen.com, I stopped by my Walgreens and they had bubble wrap on clearance. The rolls are regularly over $5 each, got the skinny ones for $1.09 and the fat ones for $1.39. The best part, didn't really pay anything since I still had a gift card from their rebate program. HA! Thanks for the FREE!!

Shameful Little Mermaid

You might remember way back when the Little Mermaid Movie came out, there was some hype about a phalicy hidden in the picture on the cover. I had never seen it and didn't really spend the time to find it on my VHS copy either. Well I was gathering up my VHS movies today to list on Ebay and decided to see if I could find a pic on the internet. Is was easy since I am the Google queen. Guess what, my copy has the unchanged phalacy. Guess I am keeping it as a collector. :)

Check it out. I've gotten free tacos, icecream, and supposedly a $20 Starbuck's card is in the mail.

Button, button, who's got the button?

I've got it! In fact over 400. Some shell, glass, bakelite, plastic, etc. I counted and sorted a jar of buttons this morning that I bought at a yardsale for 25 cents. We'll see how they do on Ebay. I will start them out at $4.99.
