Free items

Two places you should check for free stuff:

1. Aveda - sign up online and you will begin receiving post cards for free items. I have gotten hand lotion, body wash, a customized perfume, and more. Most are travel sized!

2. Earth Fare grocery stores if you have one near you. I missed out on my junk email, I could have gotten a free ice cream! My husband will be disappointed. Now they are giving a free tub of almonds and two grapefruits! I also should mention they have sales, for example, I bought a bag of organic apples for around $4, the same price as the regular grocery store's non-organic kind.

ENJOY! I know it makes my day when I go to the mall and get amazing smelling products for free!

CVS and more!

Many great deals recently.

@ Bi Lo
Marcal paper goods were on sale and everyone remembers those free coupons that were given out for about two weeks...

1 Marcel Small Steps 8 roll, on sale for 6.49
used $2 off coupons.

2 Marcal Small steps tissues B1G1 free!
I got two for free because i had two coupons for $1

1 Marcal Small Steps napkins, also a free coupon


I spent $8 there on all those paper goods AND a bag of frozen shrimp I was bringing to my friends house for dinner!

I think the cashier accepted too many coupons because it was beeping but then the manager came and put all of them through!

CVS - I got a link to a survey and I got 15 ECBs!!! Now I have 29 to spend. After today I will spend 14 but end up with another 15 or more!!!!!
I really love CVS, I have had the most success there.
