I went to Walmart today and spent .54 on 18 Buddies Soaps! I had coupons for $3/3 Johnsons products and with the price of .97 each at Walmart, I only had to pay .3 for each of them for tax! Thanks to Coupon Clippers I was able to get 10 coupons. I would have bought more soaps at Walmart, but I cleaned off the shelves!!!!!
I went in this morning to use my 5/20 coupon at WAGS and I found a huge amount of candy on clearance! I bought so many stocking stuffers for .25 and .30. There were shelves full of baskets, full of candy! Loved it! They also have Disney musical snowglobes for only $9.99. They were up on a high shelf, but there were four different kinds that I saw. I got a Mickey Mouse one for my daughter for Christmas, but I also saw a Sleeping Beauty, Disney Princesses and Winnie the Pooh. Great deal for these!
I went in for Soy Joy and Alpo, but I came out with tons of hair goodies for 90 percent off! Not pictured are my daughter's Skittles which were quickly eaten and her lunch sacks needed for a school field trip.

I was able to get four pairs of clogs for my daughter today at CVS and it cost me nothing OOP! (I will post a picture later tonight when I get a chance) The shoes are regularly $7.99 each, and they are 75% off with summer items right now! I was able to get four pairs for $8, and I still had $8 ECBs left over from my Arnicare deal last week, so it didn't cost me a dime! I love clearance sales!
This is my frugal tip of the day.
I did not realize it, but my homeowners insurance will cover the loss of food in my refrigerators and freezers due to the power outage! Someone at my husband's job told him we should check into it, and indeed it does!
My policy subtracts my deductible and then pays the difference! For some people, meeting the deductible may be difficult, but I have two refrigerator/freezers and a deep freezer, and they were all full. The meat in the deep freezer alone may meet the deductible!
All I have to do is keep a list of the food I throw out and then turn it in with the approximate price value. I won't make enough to replace it all, but at least it will be something.
You should call your insurance company and check into it!
I have had no power since the weekend thanks to the aftermath of Hurricane Ike traveling across Kentucky, so I have not had a chance to post at all until today. I will begin posting tonight and set up this week's coupon contest. Talk to you soon!
