Great deals! I will never, ever be embarrassed saving money either. I think people should be embarrassed NOT saving money! If you can, why wouldn't you?? Saving money on all these things for my family allows us to do more as a family since I don't have to work outside the home for that extra money.
ReplyDeleteHow do I get the at home mailer?
ReplyDeleteunfortunantly they are no longer available. We posted about them a while back. we will let you know about any that become available in the future though!

Hey - where'd you find the $5.00/1 tear pad Similac coupons????? Nice shop! Joelle
ReplyDeleteJoelle-
ReplyDeletemy neighbor gave them to me. She found them at her doctor's office and knows that is the formula I use to feed my little one (I LOVE the Similac spit-up for night-time feedings!). I have a couple more if you are interested!

Thanks Shannon - but you keep them and use them! My youngest is 3 so we are done with formula. I was just curious where you found those high value coupons in a tearpad! You can get some good coupons at the doctors though. I scored a few $1.00/1 Activia the other day when I had to take my son in for a bad ear infection. At least one good thing came out of that! :-) Joelle
