Coupons are unique and come up as used if you try them again. But you can use 3 different emails to get the Q and on each email the code is unique. I didn't realize the offer was still ongoing. I guess since the coupon doesn't expire until 3/15, it is going to be offered for a while. I used DH's junk facebook and email and I'll get another coupon within 24 hours. ;D The coupon is not card specific but is one time use.

If anyone is short on Probiotic, I found this on Mash Up Mom's site:
NEW $3.00/1 Ultimate Flora coupon! PDF, hosted directly on their website, legit. Starting Sunday 2/26, the 30 ct is $10.00 with $10.00 RR at Walgreens, so this makes it a money maker.

Twin Mama - Got the "Try Me Free" form - thank you! No worries. It looks like a lot of the items are on sale this week at Sfwy, so that could keep my OOP down, which is nice. Weird...somehow I didn't get what you wrote in my reply here.

Hello Ladies!
I've had an interesting couple weeks. My office moved down the street and we're downsizing everything to save money. No more free, secure, covered parking. No more kitchen. No more individual offices. No more personal printers after your current toner wears out. This means no more free toner cartridges for me and no more printing away of coupons without being noticed. I'll have to print as many as I can before they take mine away. But I have to wait. My desk is surrounded by windows surrounded by an alley and a busy street, so anyone can look inside and see me and what I'm doing and what's on my screen. I've ordered one of those privacy screens but it will probably be a few weeks before they place the next order. Ugh. My co-workers and I are NOT happy about much of it. I'll have to buy different things for lunch now that the food storage situation has changed.
I feel like I've been spending way more money on groceries than ever before so I've been adding up last month and am about to do this month's totals. I've been comparing them to my 2008 spending, which is the only consistent data I have. I'll finish February and then let you guys see the numbers and see what you think.
DH is back on the caveman diet (if a caveman could eat it, you can eat it, so meat, fruit, and vegetables only) and is reading up about all the corn, pesticides, antibiotics, etc. in processed food and is really wanting organic food. This is much more expensive, of course, but I'm doing the best I can. He even mentioned that he wants to raise our own free-range chickens, live on a farm, and go off the grid. I think he might be partly serious. We live in an apartment in the city so my mom joked about putting some chickens out on the balcony. That would be funny. It just might work! You wouldn't be able to hear them over the noise of the freeway so maybe it's not so bad! LOL.

My days of getting overage at Walmart on the Schick razors are about to end since they're not putting the $3.00 MQ in the packages. But I had a great little run burning up some of the coupons I had. My items: $23.64 12 pkg. razors @$1.97 1.54 2 heads lettuce (pricematch) .49 3lb. onions (pricematch) 1.97 pineapple (pricematch) .59 mushrooms (pricematch) 4.00 2 lbs. butter (pricematch) 1.79 gallon milk (pricematch)
$34.02 Subtotal -36.00 MQ's +1.65 tax - .23 I was given back in change

rubyslippers/ohiositter: I just wanted to make sure I let you know that I got your envies in the last couple of days. I called Target this morning and they have none on the shelf today, but I'll keep calling first thing in the morning to have them hold the bags for me. They still have a shelf space for them, so I'm pretty sure they'll get some in before the Qs expire. Anyway, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU both. The Rocket Man and Buddy the Beagle say thank you too!!

I know that your spending on organics has substantially increased since you met DH. The increased food spending goes with the guy, so just do the best you can. If you picked him, I'm sure he's worth it.

I gave up on trying to use them cuz it was always a PITA. They are not technically for the 1.97 packs so most of the cashiers wouldn't want to put them through, and they don't scan, so, too much of a hassle for me. I used several when they first came out, but then between no stock and the hassle, I gave up...

I totally gave up on Target ever getting the $3 Iams in either. I went there no less than 7 times this month, only to find empty shelves. I was told they were having trouble getting them in...whatever...I will bet money that the shelves will be full next week after the q expires.

I received my $5 COLGATE rebate today. This is one I sent immediately (as I procrastinate terribly with rebates, I put together 15 last night for instance) and I included the +5 zip code (it's a typo) and I spent less than $1 OOP (tax on GC), BUT I still got the $5

It was a surprise in the mail yesterday since I was not expecting it to come so soon. I only wish I had more of those forms, since I have a whole bunch of receipts from RA for the colgate TP and would like to help out some of my friends who have lost their jobs .

rubyslippers/ohiositter: I was able to get the IAMS today after all. We had to go to Costco and Target is just across the way and I had (2) of $1/1 Target paper towel coupons, so I asked DH to make the stop and checked to see if they had the dog food.....just in case. I was so happy to see several bags on the shelf. I was able to get (9) more bags thanks to you guys. from (Rocket) and (Buddy).

When I got IAMS today, the young male cashier told me that someone came in and bought two CARTS FILLED with them yesterday. I am so bummed that I got very few inserts on my coupon roundup that week. Oh well. HOPEFULLY, I have enough doggie food stockpiled now to get me through to the next freebie, but I rather doubt it.

It must have come yesterday afternoon cuz it wasn't in there yesterday morning. I'll run across town again before they expire. I'm doing the dancinmama happy dance cuz this might be the last opportunity for free pet food for a while. I'm bummed for you that you were not able to get them though.

There was a sale that made kitty treats free at Target a while back so I was glad to pass them on to you. This is what is most excellent about this board. We've not only shared info about the deals for years, but we've also shared our coupons with each another. If you added up all the money that we have collectively saved in our little community here over all these years, I'm sure it would reach into the tens of thousands of dollars.

Dancin: I would say it would be even higher if you count in all the store rewards, % off dept. store coupons and catalinas in addition to all the MQ's. I've been keeping track over the last 3 years and I can't believe how much I've saved. Rite Aid: Free Pantene if you buy the Aqua Light or Ice. I saw this on hip2save last night and tried it today and it gave out an extra two $1.00 UPs along with the advertised $2.00 UP. There's a $3/2 MQ in today's insert. If anyone is planning on buying the Pepsi products, watch your receipt. Mine didn't ring up on sale so I had to return it and do over. I'm putting the extra cash back on a giftcard to eat up my tax.

Dancinmama: Glad you finally found the Iams! My Target's shelves are still empty although the spot is still there. I was able to get 5 when the q first came out. The Science Diet deal was good, too, last week when I "deployed" DH for that mission.
There's a $2 Purina dry dog/cat food q in this week's Smart Source inserts. It's good on any size of the Purina cat food. There are places that sell the 1 lb bag for $2.50-$2.99 which would make it an okay deal--not great, but better than full price.
If any of you do not have furballs and won't use that q, I would love to get a few more You can PM me and I'll give my addy. Thanks.

rubyslippers: Is that a particular brand of Pantene shampoo/conditioner? I'm interested because I'm slowly working the Pantene/Cover Girl $10 rebate. Pantene shampoo is one of the eligible items.

Dancinmama: I agree with rubyslippers that it could be much, much more. I did track that one year and saved @ $4600. Between the rebates, UPs, EB's etc., I think my OOP total was @ $50. I don't keep track anymore (just track my grocery spending per month) as my goal was to see if all the work in couponing made monetary sense. I'm still here so needless to say, it does! I don't get as many deals anymore since my insert sources have all dried up, but between IP's, my Sunday paper, and the kindness of folks here, I'm in the game. You all rock!
