A slight break from our regularly scheduled program

I am taking a small break from couponing to share a blog with you guys.

A very close friend of mine recently started a blog that I want to spread the word about.

She has three children who are recovered autistic. Yes, you read that right, recovered. Her children have had issues with autism, sensory disorders, and many severe food allergies. She has spent many years learning how to get and keep her children healthy and it is a daily battle, but one that is totally worth it. She has decided to start blogging to share her knowledge (and she's a genius when it comes to this topic- although she would probably argue with me about that as she is very modest :) ).

HERE is the link to her blog, Autism Recovered.

Please pass this along to anyone you think it might help.

Kroger Mega finals from last week

Well I FINALLY found the Crayons in stock, the night before the Cat deal ended and prayed the cat would print (It didn't the first, and only other, time I bought them). I diid a sample transaction, rolling the $4 GM cat, and yay! It printed! So I rolled it with two more sets, then hit the other Kroger in town yesterday to try to get more. I bought them out of crayons. The crayons weren't marked as a sale, the catalina wasn't listed, so I figured no one else would be looking for them. :) Plus it was the very last day you could do the deal.

Here's my grand total in 12 transactions on both days, started with a $4 GMcat:
8 Pillsbury Frozen Biscuits
-$.50/1 mq
132 Crayola Crayons
5 Goldfish
4 Boulder Canyon Chips
2 apples
3 small bunches bananas
21 Bumblebee tuna

18 Sobe Juice/Tea (these rang up $1.59/ea, so the "free" took off $1.59, so $.61 overage for each two bought)

Total Tax: $5.62

I have a whole lot of things going on right now that are precluding me being online a lot. . . So excuse my infrequent posts.

Meanwhile, anyone have, or know of a home for rent in the Nashville/Clarksville area? 1500+ sq feet... $900 range...

Walgreens

I hit Wags early today b/c I didn't know how many Biotrue were in stock and I needed them to roll my $10rrs. They only had three, so I'm glad I went early!

Proglide was a problem. The deal on those ends today, but apparently, corporate pulled it early, so not only were they ringing up full price ($12.99 instead of $9.89) they also were not producing the rr. The cashier price modified them for me, and then the mgr did a "return" of $15 and I got that back on a gift card, to make up for the $rr's not printing. (I bought three razors, so should have gotten 3 $5rr's).

Here was my transaction
Bought
1 Gillette Proglide $9.89 (price modified)
1 Dial Nutriskin $3.99
1 Biotrue $4.99
2 Penway folders $.09/ea

Used
$4/1 Proglide
$4/1 Biotrue (found at WalMart)
$1/1 Dial ip
$10rr from Alive vitamins
=$.05 +tax

Earned
$3rr (dial), $4rr (Biotrue), shuold have gotten a $5rr for Proglide, but instead received $5 on a gift card

Then I did this at the second store:
Bought
1 Biotrue $4.99
1 folder $.09

Used
$4/1 Biotrue
$1rr from Crayons last week

=$.08+tax

Earned $4rr
