A Cool Coupon Site

Abbie L. pointed me out to this site: www.coupontom.com

It's pretty neat because you can type in a particular product in the search box and it will bring up all the places you kind find coupons on it.

It also has a price book section where you can type in a product and it will give you the cheapest price and what store you can find it in.

The coupon insert section give the dates of when you get Smart Source and Red Plum inserts in the newspaper for the year.

But wait! There's more. In the Tools section you can find a Coupon Match and a Blank Grocery List.


Looks like a pretty valuable website, check it out!

I Only Go To The Mall For Free Stuff

Ever go to Ann Taylor? If you don't you should tomorrow with this coupon. It's a $20 off a full price purchase of at least $20. You should be able to get out of there with some free or close to free!

Here are some other things I got at the mall for FREE just this week, maybe you could benefit as well:

Aerie: Every month they give out a free gift. You can only get them on Thursday so plan accordingly. Additionally, if is your birthday month you can get yet another free gift. This week I received a small backpack and since it is my b-day month I got to choose a lip gloss color!

Victoria Secret: I bought something back in December for super cheap and ever since then, they occasionally send me a coupon from free panties.

Or, right now, you can print off this coupon and receive a 1 ounce VS Pink Body Lotion.

Aveda: They sent me a birthday coupon for a free body wash or perfume spray. Sign up with them and maybe you can receive this as well on your birthday.

Or, right now, you can print off this coupon and receive a three piece sample pack of Smooth Infusion Shampoo, Conditioner, and Style Prep Smoother

JCPenny: The $10/$10 promotion is over now, but they are worth signing up on their mailing list. They also have great clearances and coupons. I used that $10/$10 coupon and picked up a couple of shirts for only $2.00.

Kroger Gas and Groceries Sweepstakes

Kroger is having a drawing on September 14th and giving away FREE gas and groceries for an entire year! Now, I am really not into entering sweepstakes, but you can spin a wheel on the website here everyday up until September 12th. If you have a Kroger card number registered on their site you get two spins! I don't know what the odds are on landing on something cool on the 'wheel' but it might be worth a try. Here are the following prizes that are on the 'wheel':

Journey Diamond Pendent Valued at $1,950
I-Wireless Mobile Phone and Airtime Minutes

$5/$25 Walgreens Coupons

Go to the Walgreens site here and get your coupon! It only works for this Wednesday and Thursday, so use it quick! Click here to find some of the freebies that are offered this week.

Frugal Experiment: All-Purpose Cleaner


A little vinegar and borax can go a long way! I finished up a particular 'toxic' cleaner I bought at the store a while back. I kept the bottle, poured in the new ingredients, and it works great! I use it for everything. I even used it to clean up a little red paint that was spilled on my beige carpet! Also, some pink Sunny D was spilled on the carpet as well. This too came up very well.

Keep in mind I used this as soon as the spill happened. It does take a little elbow grease on other surfaces or stains/crustations.

Anyway, it's all natural and does what I need it to do for now. Here's the recipe if you are interested!

2 Teaspoons Borax
4 Tablespoons Vinegar
32 ounces of water
