Awesome Huggies Diaper coupons!

Hurry, hurry, hurry over to Coupons.com to print your Huggies diaper coupons.
They have a $5/1 Gentle Care Product coupon and $3/1 Natural Fit Product coupon.
You can print 2 of each, but these won't last long because they'll be so popular!

*Save these for the week of 3/8- Walgreens is suppose to have these on sale for $10 each, buy $25 worth, get $10 Register Reward (to use on your next purchase).

This is a possible scenario:
Transaction #1:
Buy 2 pkgs Gentle Care Diapers and 1 pkg Natural Fit Diapers
Spend $30 minus $13 in coupons= $17 out of pocket
Get $10 Register Reward

Transaction #2: Another pkg of Huggies Diapers
$10 minus $10 Register Reward=
FREE pkg of diapers

Total out of pocket: $17 for 4 pkgs of diapers or $4.25 per pkg

*If you have can get 4 copies of the coupons (this is possible if a friend prints them off for you or if you have access to more than one computer)
Best Scenario:
Transaction #1: Buy 3 pkgs of Gentle Care Diapers
$30 minus $15 in coupons= $15 out of pocket
Get $10 Register Rewards

Transaction #2: Buy 1 pkg Gentle Care Diapers and 2 pkgs Natural Fit Diapers
$30 minus $11 in coupons=$19 out of pocket
Get another $10 Register Rewards

Transaction #3: Buy 2 pkg of Huggies diapers
$20 minus your 2 Register Rewards (you may have to do these in 2 seperate transactions)
2 pkg FREE diapers

Total out of pocket= $34 for 8 pkgs or $4.25

***This scenario was updated as my blog friend, Sarah, let me know that if you use the Register Rewards from the Huggies promotion toward the Huggies promotion- you won't get another Register Reward coupon. To utilize this promotion you either want to use the RR toward another regularly priced pkg of diapers or toward your other purchases at Walgreens. I'll come up with some more scenarios that week to help you get the most out of your RR

Sorry for the delay...

Thanks to all the great ladies who read my blog! Sorry I've been so sporadic lately. It's turning out that pregnancy #4 has been harder than the others. I've been suffering from severe pelvic muscle pain (which apparently is common in women with multiple births so close) and the only "magic cure" is giving birth. :) Fortunately, that's not so far away for me- 4 weeks or less now!

Thankfully, my mom will be visiting this next week (while my husband flies to Los Angeles for business) to help prepare my house for our new baby girl since I've been somewhat confined to "resting" these days to overcome the pain. So look forward to lots more blogging next week! Thanks so much for all your support for my blog. I really enjoy providing these great deals for other moms like me-- just looking for the best deal!

My AWESOME Deal for the Week!




So that $2 Sunday paper I bought all the way back in January to get the Procter & Gamble coupons, really paid off for me today! After hearing about this Procter & Gamble deal- Buy $40 worth of products get a $15 gas card- here and the fact that I had a TON of P&G coupons that expired 2/28- I decided to try it.


Food Pyramid was a participating store which was even better since they DOUBLE coupons $0.50 or less. This really helped me make this deal great. As an added bonus, I also had a coupon for $5 off a $50 purchase at Food Pyramid from my Entertainment book that I got last year for FREE. So here's the break down:


(I needed milk which was on sale for $2.89 a gallon x3 and apple juice that was on sale as well)

$54.89 for my order before coupons ($44.53 in Procter & Gamble products)

-$5 coupon from Entertainment book

-$19.70 in manufacturer's coupons ($3.55 in which was doubled to be $7.10)

= $30.19 out-of-pocket

-$10.36 I spent on milk and juice

=$19.83 on Procter & Gamble products

-$15 gas card from mail-in rebate

= $4.83 after coupons and deal on Procter & Gamble products


So what percentage did I save?

$44.53 in products for $19.83 is a 55.5% savings

$44.53 in products for $4.83 (after gas card savings) is a 89.2% savings!!
And what did I get?
Tide Detergent, Disinfecting wipes, spray and mop cleaners, 2 bottles of dish detergent, rinse aid, toothpaste, 20 disposable razors, 2 rolls of paper towels and 2 boxes of baby wipes!


*The picture is of all my P&G products minus another set of wipes

My Old Navy Deal- Save $32, spend $2!



Okay-- so going to Old Navy yesterday with 3 kids to pick up the Valentine coloring sheets was less than wonderful. BUT, today we got 3 shirts and 2 pairs of flip-flops for $2! Old Navy already had a great kids and baby sale going on plus with our $5 off each transaction- we did 3 transactions.

Our first was a great deal on lighter long sleeve shirts for spring- 2 for $6 so we paid $1.09 out of pocket. Our second was on a cute tee that said "Daddy's Lil Skipper" which we got for our soon-to-be 3 yr old's birthday present- $6, $1.09 out of pocket! Then our 4 year old loved the flip-flops and they'll be needing some soon for spring and summer- 2 for $5- we paid NOTHING! It was better than going garage sale-ing :)

As an added bonus- for each transaction they were giving away a 40% off a single item coupon to be used Feb. 20-25. So we now have 3 of those coupons! You can't beat that!

$1.50 off Yo-Plus coupon

Thanks to MommySnacks.net for this $1.50/1 Yo-Plus yogurt coupon. Go here to print yours. Many stores often have these 4-packs of yogurt on sale for $2, so after this coupon, they would only be $0.50--which is a great deal!
If you like this yogurt, there's also a $1/1 coupon here. Not as great as $1.50/1 but still makes the yogurt $0.25 per serving if your store has them on sale for $2.

I tried this out because of the coupons and because I saw a friend liked it- I love it! So good!!
