A Few of My Favorite Things

I think everyone has a few products they get excited about when they find them on a good deal.

There are a few that make me feel like Julie Andrews. I want to throw my hands in the air and twirl around when a coupon is issued, and do an even bigger happy dance when they go on sale.

Many of my readers know my "Favorite Things" and let me know when they find a good deal on them. Thanks!

A Few of My Favorite Things
  • Breyers Ice Cream
  • Grande & Krunchers Chips
  • International Delight Coffee Creamer
  • Red Gold Tomatoes
  • Bounty Paper Towel

I've gotten to know quite a few of my readers "Favorite Things". Even though I might not buy these products, I pay more attention to them and look for great deals on them too.

I know whose husband loves fresh spinach and whose has heartburn. I know whose kids love chicken strips and whose love strawberries. I know who has a cat and who loves pie. I even know who colors their hair. (I probably should by this product for myself.)

Leave a short list of your "Favorite Things" in the comments. I'll be on the look out for a great deal on them too.

  2. I've noticed shopping locally that a few senior women should be picking up a bottle of hair dye, after getting their hair cut and style. The only thing worse is being up in North County and seeing guys my age wearing ponytails and untrimmed beards, both with streaks of gray or white.

  3. My house is in serious need of paper... toliet paper and paper towels... I am dieing for a $1 Bounty sale and was so excited for the toliet paper at Shop n Save... only to be disappointed when I got there and there was none!

    So if you could put an all points bulletin out for those I would be much grateful!

  4. Revlon comestics--I have been waiting forever to find a super cheap deal. I really hate the free Almay from the November WAGS deal.

    Good cheese--Feta crumbles, brie, whatever, and everyday cheese--shredded, singles, etc.

    Ok, this is TMI, but foot spray, like Gold Bond. I have to buy it for my husband and there are very few good deals!
    Gogurt, pop-tarts, granola bars, Wheat Thins, and Special K. and Coke Kelly

  17. Thanks, everyone for sharing "Your Favorite Things". I hope everyone else is enjoying reading the lists as much I am. Overall we look like a pretty easy group to please.

    Jennifer - I once saw a tearpad coupon for Nutella at the store. So, they do offer them, but not very often.

    Kelly - Lots of weeks Dierbergs includes some "good" cheese in their ad.

    Dierbergs - We love it when you put single roll Bounty on sale for $1. Do you have a Bounty sale coming up? (Jennifer, hope this helps.)
