Earn 90 points from MyPoints

I got an email this morning from my points letting me know that I could earn 90 points just for doing 45 searches this month using their search engine. This is an easy way to earn points towards FREE giftcards and other prizes.

Over the next few weeks I will be taking you  all on a journey to earn as much points as possible in an effort to live on giftcards.

$5 off $20 at CVS

I went to CVS today to get the Fuze thats on sale for my boys, I looked in today's AJC and what did I find?, a CVS $5 off $20 or more purchase coupon that expires 6/18/11.

I was very excited since I missed the last one that came out. Here's a picture of what I bought, I paid a total of $0.61 out of pocket and got back $6 ECB.

Awesome Oatmeal Idea

I know we all are trying to eat healthy and feed our family the best that we can. I came across this option for a healthy oatmeal option that you might like on A few short cuts.

I will try this with my children and see if they like it. I love oatmeal so this is perfect for me.

Have fun and let me know iif you try it and how you liked it, or not.

Return Challenge

It is a new year and we all still have those things hanging around that we were supposed to return to the store but just never got around to it. Well I have several of those and I am determined to get it done. I usually am pretty good at returns but I got caught up and now some may have gone missing. lol

I am making this a challenge to see who have the most returns and regained the most capitol. It could be store credits, cash back or even exchanged for something you really needed.

I did one at Kohls today and got a $53 store credit, Staples and got $18 back on debit card, kroger $9 cash, Riteaid $6. So in one day I reclaimed $86 that would have been gone to waste sort of say.

I would love to know how you all do.

12 days of Christmas for the kids ..... Day One

Last year I did a twelve days of Christmas program for our three boys. Each morning they would wake up to a different gift in their room. Well it was a hit and was requested again this year. The items they get are actually quite inexpensive and I picked things they can use for a while or have fun sharing.

Today was day one and here is what they got.

I went into Riteaid and saw these quite mini cookies and thought it was great and they were only .99 each. I also got one for my mom, who I will be surprising with the 12 days this year as well. I went to Walgreens and got 6 Hallmark cards for .99 each, used a $4.00 rr, paid $2 and change and got back $5rr. Not a bad first day at all.

FREE $5 Cvs gift card when you buy a $25 Cvs gift card

I love it when I get rewarded for doing what I do anyway. I use a giftcard in each store that I shop in as a way to budget myself. I put the amount that I want to spend at that store during the sales period on a store card and when it is finished so is my retail therapy.

The holidays are here and alot of deals to be had so FREE money makes it even better. Go to this link and you can buy a Cvs Gift card in the amount of your choice and get $5 free dollars for every $25.

These will make great gifts for your coupon bff's.
