Good Deals

paid $5.77 for all these

I have been busy shopping free and cheap items lately. Hopefully, this will help with our grocery budget, put more food on our table, use for donation, share with relatives and best of all save us a lot money by the end of the year.


This is why I am so busy lately, blog being neglected as well as my household chores. I just can't resist a good deal. A good example of which is the new Dove Visiblecare bodywash. It is regularly priced at $4.72, went down to $2.97 minus a $2 off coupon. .97/bottle is way too good to pass up so I bought a lot and shared coupons to our friends. This product went out of stock in days, I am so relieved a picked up a few bottles before they got cleared out. Of course, there's always this feeling that I should have picked out a few more but that wouldn't be saving anymore so it's important to have a limit and a budget specifically for stockpiling.

paid $3.44 + tax

One trip I enjoyed the most was when I went to claim 2 free Sunlight detergent, 1 free kashi cereal, 1 free Special K cereal and 2 boxes of motrin. I paid only .89 at the till and can't stop grinning from ear to ear.

I also received a gift pack from Kellogg's with new flavors that aren't even out in the market. The kids were extremely happy with those Kellogg's boxes and Leila is hoping the mailman will bring her more free cereal.


In the few months that I have started saving through coupons (I started late November), I have accumulated a neat pile of stuff  which looks like a sari-sari store (mini store). I like to stare at it from time to time, still couldn't believe how cheap I got them and I know I want more. I can never go back to paying full price so everywhere I go, my coupon binder goes :D
