Even More Free Stuff


Andy thinks it's really dorky that I'm posting pictures of stuff I got for free on my blog. It probably is.

I'm getting better! You can see my large stash of free to almost free items I got the last week. After rebates, I'm going to make over $20 on the above items. I did pay 99 cents for the razor, 32 cents for the cereal, and 16 cents each for the organic diced tomatoes, but even when you figure these in plus stamps for the rebates, I'll still make about $15. Pretty cool!

(By the way... The Just for Men was just because I'm making $10 for buying it. If any of you wants this, let me know and you can have it for free :) )

Free Stuff

I have been determined to become a better shopper, and make our money last longer. I always hear about great deals and combining coupons, but it always seems impossible for me to actually do. Yesterday however, I beat the system. I will make money on all the above items. Here's how I did it:

Walgreens has a catalog, called the Easy Saver catalog, that is full of rebates. It comes out every month, and each month, there are a few items in it that are free after rebate. This month the Garnier Hair Styling products and the Colgate Advanced toothpaste were both free after rebate (limit 1 each). These are both things that Andy and/or myself use. The Glade flameless candles are on sale this week at Walgreens for $5.99 (regularly $7.99). In the Easy Saver Catalog (which can be found with the weekly ads at all the Walgreens stores) there is a $2 rebate for these (limit 3). Now if you combine this with this $5 off coupon from the Glade website, you will actually make $1 for each candle when you get your rebates back. (The coupon from Glade will only print 2 times per computer).

So, this is a picture of the things I made money to buy this week :)
