Sorry for no post this week...

Taking a week off this week as DD was diagnosed with hand, foot and mouth disease on Monday, so we have been on quarrantine at home all week. I haven't had a chance to post the flyer links or the matchups for the week, so I'm probably going to skip it until next week.

I'll still post my shopping trip deals from the weekend, but I just won't have time to do the matchups and get them posted. :(

DD is doing well though, all things considered. She is feeling much better, the rash is almost gone and she has been such a trooper this whole time.

Until the weekend... hopefully back to normal next week!

So I get regional differences in inserts, but...

Wow! I sure feel like I'm getting the short end of the stick living where I live. So I have been picking up a local paper and a Boston Sunday Globe every week for a few weeks now and it's starting to frost my hiney how many more coupons the Boston Sunday Globe gets. So, for example, this week in the local paper there were a total of 40 coupons, including:
Hershey bars, Hershey syrup, Downy, Tide, Glade auto spray refill, John Frieda hair care, John Frieda root awakening, Chock Full O Nuts, Era, Glade plugins, Glade plugins refill, Marcal small steps, Zantac, Curad, Krusteaz, Glade candles BOGO, Glad candles refill, Glade jar candles, Glade sense & spray starter, Glade sense & spray refill, SoyJoy bars, Glade carpet, Glade premium spray, Glade fabric, Food Should Taste Good, French's, Zaditor, White Castle, Dole fruit bowls, Dole fruit parfait, Dole frozen fruit bars, Clorox bleach, Clorox 2, Hidden Valley, Britta (2), Clorox wipes, Formula 409, Clorox/Tilex/Pine Sol, Schick.
Not bad right? Quite a few coupons in that one. Until I see how many are still left in the Boston paper after clipping all of the above! In the Boston inserts, in addition to all of the above, I got:
Nestle morsels, Nestle dough, Beggin Strips, Blue Diamond (2), Finish Jet Dri, Finish, Triaminic (2), Huggies diapers (2), Huggies wipes, Dole jar fruit, Yoplait 32 oz, GM cereal, Yoplait Splitz, Frigio string cheese, Arm & Hammer toothpaste, Arm & Hammer spinbrush, GoodNites, Purina cat treats, Ssips, ClearCare/AQuify, Claritin, Planters bars, Lunchables, Oscar Mayer hot dogs, Dr Oetker Ristorante, Mitchum, Pull Ups, Bic, Pillsbury sweet rolls, Old El Paso, Yoplait original, YoPlus, Pyrex, and Schick/Bananna Boat/Hawaiian Tropic.
37 more coupons in the Boston insert! Holey Moley! I had been debating if it was really worth getting the more expensive paper, I'm going to say, most definitey, YES! LOL Almost twice as many coupons is worth it for sure!

Monday, August 2, 2010

Ooops, I forgot! LOL

I guess I WON'T be adding my matchups for the week this week. I totally spaced it and we will not be around this weekend, headed to Maine to visit friends so I wan't be going shopping until Monday next week. So I'll be waiting for the insert preview over at WeUseCoupons so I can do some planning before being away for the weekend. :) I'll be posting the new deals as soon as we get back!
