  1. Hi actually more of a question then a comment though... anyone realize the last few weeks there has been no Walgreen's ad in the sunday paper?

  2. Hi Anonymous - I've had Walgreens ads in my Sunday papers.

    I've never been able to figure out why some papers get ads/inserts and others don't. I'm sure there is some fancy marketing formula where they think they are getting ads/inserts to people that want and will use them, but I'm not so sure that is the way it works out.

  3. Anonymous,

    I am assuming you get home delivery of your paper. (If not, there is nothing you can do.) One week I was missing a coupon insert I was pretty sure I should have gotten. I called and was told it wasn't in my paper that week. Another time I got online and contacted the Post Dispatch that way. They verified I was to get the insert, and I had it within a few hours. If I were you, I would contact the Post Dispatch next time to find out if you should have received the insert. If they say no, I would email Walgreens. Tell them you wish they would include inserts in your paper and be sure to include your zip code.

  4. Sorry, I don't have a deal find, I just have a question!!! Is there a website or something that lists what each insert has? Like the coupon info, date issued, and expiration date?

    I am trying to make my own spreadsheet so I can keep track of which coupons I have, but it is taking me too long to enter in each coupon manually.

    So, please let me know how I can find already made-up lists with the coupon info!!
    Thanks!

  5. Stephanie L,

    This is not really what you are wanting, but what I use a lot to locate coupons is: http://coupontom.com/ If I want a coupon for a certain product, I enter that brand. However, coupons and coupon amounts differ greatly by regions, so it is not always accurate. However, it is a still helpful.

  6. Hi Stephanie- Have you checked out Deal Seeking Mom's Coupon Data base?

    http://coupondatabase.dealseekingmom.com/main-database/

    You can set up your own Personal Data Base. It's free all you need to do is register. You then click on coupons she already has in the main data base to add them to your personal one. There are a lot of cool features. You can add your own coupons or even record the number of coupons you have.

I combined that with 2 $1 off coupons from 10/9 inserts (I forgot if it was SS or RP) or you can print a $1 coupon from curel website. I paid $3.98 and recieved a $5 giftcard.

  10. I used (2)1$ off bodywash( axe) from the 16th and BOGO from the 23rd ended up with 3.50 for two body wash -2$
    or .75 a piece!
    also there are some that come with free travel sizes on them so if thats your brand get a little extra freebie
    I noticed at walmart that they had some 12OZ bottle with 50% more free so your getting the 18oz for the price of the 12.(I didn't see these at my Target in O'Fallon Mo)
    -If your trying to get the 18oz for the price of the 12 make sure its labled 50% more free or you will be paying the price of the 18oz

  11. I wanted to share this with everyone but didn't know a better place to put it! I got a few great deals at Dollar General this week. I don't routinely shop there, but occasionally a great bargain will draw me in!

    They have Libby's canned vegetables 2/$1 this week, and if you still have the $1/4 coupon from a while back, that's a steal! They also have Chex cereals Buy 2, get 1 free at $2.50/box. So 3/$5 or better if you have the printable coupons from a while ago. My Aldi has been running their version of Chex for over $2 a box- which I refuse to pay- so I was stoked to get that deal!

    I'm sure there are more deals, but those are the ones that I caught.
