Dollar Tree to start accepting coupons!
My niece heard that Dollar Tree is going to start accepting coupons. Since I had just recently asked them if they did and been told no, I went to their website to get the details. Here is a link to their coupon policy, beginning August 26th. I've copied and pasted the text below:
IN-STORE COUPON ACCEPTANCE: GUIDELINES & LIMITATIONS
DOLLAR TREE WILL ACCEPT COUPONS IN STORES BEGINNING SUNDAY, AUGUST 26, 2012
- Only original and intact manufacturers’ coupons will be accepted. Retailer-specific coupons will not be accepted.
- Coupons are void if copied, scanned, or if they have been altered in any way.
- Only two (2) print-at-home Internet coupons may be redeemed per transaction.
- We are unable to accept coupons for “Free” items with no purchase requirements or where the amount for the product is blank.
- Coupons can only be used in stores and must be presented at time of purchase. Coupons cannot be redeemed for cash at a later time.
- Coupons will not be accepted without the purchase of the item specified and are subject to the terms listed (e.g. expiration date, size, limitations, quantity, etc.).
- Coupons cannot be redeemed for more than the purchase price of the item.
- Only one (1) manufacturer’s coupon will be accepted per item.
- Management has the right to refuse any coupon or otherwise limit quantities.
Wal-Mart and price matching
As I was leaving Wal-Mart on Saturday, I ran into a friend who asked me if I knew that Wal-Mart wouldn't match their own prices. Turns out that if they have an item online for less than the same item is in the store, they won't match their own price. Interesting, isn't it? I went to their website and looked at their ad match guarantee. Sure enough, it says they don't match internet pricing, but you'd think they'd match their own internet prices???? Thoughts, comments?

Interesting Article
Someone from the website Web2Carz sent me this article: Save your Food Budget from the Drought. At first I couldn't figure out why a car site was sending me a link to read and was naturally suspicious. LOL. Anyway, I went on over to the site and checked it out. Turns out they have an entire lifestyle session filled with interesting articles, as well as sections on people, tech, autos, and trends. If you get a chance, go check it out!

I'm still here
Yes, I am still here, haven't fallen into a hole or anything. LOL. I have no real good reason for not posting lately, but lots of excuses. It was a crazy week last week (meetings 3 nights, an interview Wednesday night), culminating with getting to go out of town Friday and Saturday for a child care conference. It was an awesome conference and I came back feeling revived and rejuvenated.
My goal this week is to post something everyday in the blog. So, here we go!

This week's extreme deal at Staples
Each week, Staples has been having great penny deals on school and office supplies. This week, if your child needs loose leaf notebook paper, you can pick it up for a penny at Staples. There is a limit of 5 per customer and you have to spend $5 to get the deal. But here's a hint, they also have Hammerhill copy paper for $6.99 a ream, with a $5.99 rebate. So, you can buy the $5 minimum and get most of it back in a few weeks! There is a limit of two rebates per household. So if you can go to Staples twice this week, you can get 2 reams of computer paper for $1each after rebate and 10 packages of notebook paper for a penny each.

Summer Slump?
Do you find it hard to get motivated to use coupons in the summer? The last few weeks have been so chaotic for me that I've hardly even looked at the coupons in the Sunday paper and I've certainly not cut any out. I need to get back in the groove! And this heat, ugh! It's hard to get motivated to do ANYTHING!!!!!
Just wondering if I'm the only one.
