It's been a long time!

I started working, and since, have not posted anything.

However, I saw this article today and I was inspired:

CVS Score Today!

Today I spent $53.56 at CVS and received $30 worth of EC Bucks.

I immediately used them to purchase more items totalling $30.30 (that's only .30 out of pocket) and received another $18 in EC Bucks which I was not expecting, because the SoyJoy ECB Rebate was limited to 3 per household; I received 6!

I still have $18 worth of free merchandise coming!

There was a coupon in this week's ad for double points on CVS brand items, which runs through March. Even if you aren't purchasing any CVS brand items this week, you can still have the coupon scanned so that it's reflected on your card until the offer expires.

Also, if you purchase the CVS Greenbagtag for .99, you can earn $1 EBC every 4th visit when you scan your tag and use a reuseable bag instead of their sacks. You can go in, buy gum, scan your tag and still earn the ECB every 4th time! ;~}

PLUS because the Greenbagtag is a CVS branded item, you will receive double points on your purchase if you've used the coupon above.

ALWAYS GOOGLE FOR COUPONS BEFORE YOU ORDER ONLINE!!!!!

I was placing an order online at work yesterday and as it's my habit to search for coupons before I place an order at home, I did so then, even though I really didn't expect to find anything.

Guess what. I found a coupon for $30 off my order!

Happy New Year!

It's hard to believe it's been more than 2 months since my last post! Thank you all for your prayers and support while I was away caring for my grandma in her final days. She was an awesome deal maker and bargain hunter; I am proud to have learned so much from her.

I did a lot of my Christmas shopping online Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving), getting deep discounts in addition to earning rebates on nearly everything. Those check will be nice to receive in the next couple of months!

Candles To My Door has some great pricing on candles right now. Examples: Buy 1 22 oz. Woodwick and get the 2nd 50% off. It's hard to find sales on these, so 25% off of 2 is good. Also Colonial Candles are all 25% off. The best deal is the 23 oz. Traditions Jar, weighing in at .55 cents an ounce. If you have not smelled Peppermint Stick, you are missing something FABULOUS!!! I did not find any rebate sites for them, but you do get free UPS shipping on orders over $99.

Viewpoint Forum

Viewpoint Forum is a survey company that pays better than most. I just cashed in points for a payment of $11.20 and have spent less than an hour total on the surveys!

True, my opinions are probably being used against me in their marketing strategies, but as an informed consumer, I'm not threatened! Besides, sometimes you get to try new products before they hit the market and that's fun!
