Reminder for FREEBIES - 4/18

I'll be MIA tomorrow b/c Hubby and I will be trekking to our semi-annual pub crawl with some friends. But I want to remind you of the FREE events that will be taking place tomorrow, April 18th. If you know of any that I have missed, please post them!

FREE Breakfast at Ikea - the food is seriously good. If you can't make it tomorrow morning, go on Sunday! Your stomach will thank you.

FREE Craft Event at Michael's - what's not to love about chicks and bunnies with googly eyes?

Have a great Saturday!

Mickey D’s 2 for 1 Drink Promotions!

To wash down that spicy chicken sandwich I just posted about, run over to Mickey D’s and get 2 drinks for the price of 1! And you just might need two – those sandwiches are spicy.

Mondays through Fridays from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., you can get 2 of the following for the price of 1 – icy cold cokes, McCafe Mochas, Lattes, and Cappuccinos just to name a few.

Wendy’s Coupon!

I think the universe is trying to getting my Hubby to eat out as much as possible because these awesome coupons keep coming out for his favorite restaurants. Does a fast-food place count as a restaurant? Someone get back to me on that please.

Hubby’s favorite thing to eat from Wendy’s is their spicy chicken sandwich, and wouldn’t you know that a $1 off coupon just magically appeared for that very sandwich. He’s a lucky one isn’t he? Click here to print out yours!

FREE Michael’s Family Event – Tomorrow!

Boo and I go to Michael’s every fall to decorate pumpkins – I just love their FREE events! My girl is way into crafting right now so I wish she were old enough for the event that will be taking place at Michael’s tomorrow. From 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., you can take your kiddies to Michaels and make cute spring critters. The recommended age for this event is 5 – 12.

$1/2 Sun Chips (Thanks Thrifty Mom!)

$1/1 Wholly Guacamole – you know, to go with the salsa =)

Kmart Doubles Coupon Match-Up

And if you missed my previous Kmart post and have no idea what I'm talking about, click here =)

FREE Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

If you haven’t tried one of these before now is your chance. This thing is seriously heaven-sent. It gets any stain/mark/smudge/chocolate-covered fingerprint off anything. We just used one last week to clean the scuff marks off of our door. I tend to get a little compulsive with these though, and Hubby has to forcefully remove the eraser from my hands or I will attempt to wipe down everything in the house.

Click here to get your FREE 2-pack and get to working on all those smudges. Or not. I personally think they add character =)

Is Your Kmart Doubling Coupons?

Remember how I posted last night that Kmart will be doubling coupons again? Well, Kmart's weekly circulars for next week are posted! Click here to see whether your store will be participating in the Double Coupons promotion, and if they are, up to what amount! My store is doubling coupons up to and including $2 =)

FREE Breakfast at Ikea, 4/17 – 4/19

Woot woot! Ikea is having another FREE breakfast! If you guys missed the last one, definitely go this time around if you have a store near you. I took Boo and Bubba and for FREE we each got scrambled eggs, bacon, and hash browns. And it was dang good! There was a bit of a crowd but we waited in line for maybe 3 minutes at most, and found a seat with no problem. So don't let the possible crowds scare you away!

Click here to find a location near you and to find out the breakfast hours for your store =)

The Children’s Place – A Promotional Code!

We just went to a Children’s Place outlet over Easter weekend, and we cleared the $1.99 and $.99 racks! One thing we didn’t stock up on though are jeans for Boo. She is growing like a weed and is over the 95th percentile for height. So unless we want her to look like she’s getting ready for a flood, we’re going to have to do some more shopping. Oh darn.

Children’s Place has a promotional code for online purchases where you will receive 15% off your total purchase. All you have to do is enter the code: SA249. This code is good until May 10th, and even better, their shipping is a flat rate of $5. Gotta love that! Head over while they are having their spring sale, and you can score some seriously cheap and cute clothes!

(Thanks Baby Cheapskate!)

CVS FREEBIES!

I don’t usually shop at CVS because I’ve got enough on my plate with all my Target and Walgreens adventures. But while prowling around on A Full Cup, I noticed these FREEBIES!

Purex Laundry Detergent – BOGO
- BOGO printable from my Coupons.com widget on the right side of my page
= 2 for FREE
Note: This coupon is not available for all zip codes, so enter your zip code and keep your fingers crossed that the coupon appears!
*Edit: Hip 2 Save posted that zip code 43123 results in one of these coupons! Thanks!!

- BOGO printable
= 2 for FREE, and if you can print out 2, you will get 4 for FREE!

A Few Internet Coupons and Promotions

Borders: Another 30% off coupon available for print! Click here =)

Victoria’s Secret: $10 off any full-priced bra and FREE VS cotton pant with purchase. Click here =)

Chick-fil-A Promotions

Hubby feels about Chick-fil-A the way that I feel about ice cream. I was prowling on their website for coupons, one of my favorite pastimes, and I noticed that the location closest to me has a list of ongoing promotions. I’m sure they vary for each location, but our upcoming promotions are: Kids Eat FREE on April 21st and FREE Breakfast Wednesday from now until May 15th. With these great deals, I can count on Hubby being an even more frequent visitor!

Click here to find your closest locations and whether they have any upcoming promotions =)

Kmart Doubling Coupons, 4/19 – 4/25

Kmart is doing it again! From the 19th to the 25th, Kmart will be doubling coupons that are valued from $.75 to $2 or possibly even $4!! That means you can *possibly* get discounts of up to $8. Isn’t that unreal?

Deal Seeking Mom has compiled a list by state of what stores will be participating, so go to her site and keep your fingers crossed that yours is! I would also suggest calling your local store directly to see whether they will be participating, and what amount they will double up to. Also as a note, each store limits how many coupons you can use per transaction, and not all stores accept internet coupons. So you will want to find out that information as well =)

Arby’s Coupons and Text Message Promotion!

Hubby is going to love this! More Arby’s coupons were emailed to me for a Roast Beef Choice, Roast Beef Combo, ½ off an Iced Fruitea, and a FREE Swirl Shake with the purchase of another Swirl Shake. To print these out, click here =)

And if you text the word ROASTED to 74700, you will receive a coupon via text message for a FREE Roastburger with the purchase of any sized drink. Sweet!

(Thanks Coupon Cravings for the awesome text message promotion!)

More Tax Day FREEBIES!

I was browsing one of my fav sites, Hip 2 Save, and noticed these two Tax Day FREEBIES that I had missed.

Dunkin Donuts: FREE Donut with the purchase of any size coffee

Subway: FREE cookie while supplies last - no purchase necessary!

If you missed my other Tax Day promotions, check them out here =)

Earth Day Promotions at the Disney Store

I am obsessed with all things Disney. We just recently went in January and had the time of our lives. I'm trying to talk Hubby into going back in September when they are having their FREE Dining promotion but he is being a bit resistant. Don't you worry, I'll wear him down.

The Disney Store is having a cute promotion for Earth Day. They collaborated with the Disney Worldwide Conservation fund and produced specially designed reusable tote bags. For every bag produced, they planted one tree - that's over 95,000 trees! You can show your support by buying a tote bag for only $2.50.

Also, if you bring in 3 plastic bottles to any Disney Store location on Earth Day, April 22nd, you will receive a FREE gift. It's a great way to teach kids about recycling, and also get a FREE gift in the process!

FREE Scoop of Haagen Dazs Ice Cream - 5/12

I swear, no sooner had I posted my previous post on ice cream, and I spotted this FREEBIE. It's eerie how at one the universe and I are.

On May 12th from 4 - 8 p.m., you can get a FREE scoop of any Bee-built ice cream flavor at any participating Haagen Dazs. I have two thoughts on this: 1) I have no clue was Bee-built ice cream is, but I'm intrigued; and 2) am I the only one who didn't know there was an 's' at the end of Haagen Dazs?

Click here for more info =)

FREE Carvel Iceberg - 4/30 (A.K.A. My Ode to Ice Cream)

I can't believe my good luck with all of these great FREE ice cream promotions that are coming up! On Thursday, April 30th, from 3 - 7 p.m., (is that one comma too many?) Carvel will be celebrating it's 75th anniversary by giving away FREE Icebergs. I just love it when companies celebrate special occasions, and I get something out of it.

FREE CFL Lightbulbs at Home Depot - 4/19

Here's another great Earth Day promotion, and it couldn't come at a better time. Our family room lightbulb has been out for about 6 months now. Not because we don't have lightbulbs but because we are too lazy to change them. But I've been meaning to buy some CFL lightbulbs, so a FREE one will surely motivate me to finally change them. Or at least to nag Hubby to do it.

On Sunday, April 19th Home Depot is going to be giving away 1 million EcoSmart 14w CFL lightbulbs in support of Earth Day 2009. Each store will have varying quantities, and it is only while supplies last, so if you have your heart set on one, go early! Click here to find your closest location =)

FREE Sample of Bare Escentuals Foundation

Remember the FREE Bare Escentuals Foundation Sample and Brush I posted about here? Well, this promotion is being offered again! All you have to do is go to your closest Bare Escentuals location to get your FREE ten day foundation sample and brush. If you don’t have a location near you, you can order it online and just pay $3.95 for shipping. Their products are amazing, and if you have never tried them before, now is a good time! Click here for more info and to find a location near you =)

(Thanks Deal Seeking Mom!)

FREE Sample of Nature’s Source

Every Tuesday in the month of April, you will have a chance to get a FREE sample of Nature’s Source All-Purpose Cleaner. All you have to do is go to Right at Home tomorrow morning and be one of the first 10,000 to respond. Look for the “Especially for You” section on the lower right-hand side =)

FREE Redbox Movie Monday!

The coupon code for your free movie is J89LA2 and it expires at midnight tonight (CST). Click here for more information on redbox.

The Art of Rolling Register Rewards at Walgreens

I will be the first to admit that I'm no pro at this money-saving stuff, although I like to think I'm doing pretty good! It wasn't until very recently that I learned how much you can save by rolling the Register Rewards you receive from Walgreens. I used to use my Register Rewards on my next purchase to get my total out-of-pocket amount down. There's nothing wrong with this, but oftentimes I wasn't purchasing anything else that resulted in a Register Reward. So I wasn't utilizing my Rewards in the most efficient way.

That probably makes no sense so here's an example using some of this week's Register Reward deals.

Transaction #1
1 Scunci Elastics - $2
1 small filler item for $.30 - $.50
- $2 Chapstick Register Reward
= $.30 and get a $2 Register Reward

Transaction #2
1 Chapstick $1.99
1 small filler item for $.30 - $.50
- $2 Scunci RR
= $.29 and get a $2 RR from Chapstick

Repeat as many times as you want to get lots of Chapstick and Scunci Elastics for just the cost of the filler item. I always add cheap filler items if the total out-of-pocket after Register Rewards/coupons will be $0 or a negative amount. I just feel it's best not to make any waves ;-)You can also do this with the Skintimate/Edge Shaving Gel and Colgate Toothbrush Register Rewards!

I hope this makes sense but please let me know if you have any questions =)

Walgreens, 4/12 - 4/18

Babies R Us Coupon - $5 off $25

I haven't set foot inside a Babies R Us in over a year. I had to stop going there because every time I walked in, I left with over $75 of clothes. Their stuff is just too dang cute. Also, seeing ridiculously tiny baby clothes makes me want another small baby. Like now. I think it's best for my hubby's sanity that I stay out of there.

However, I may be tempted to go there to take advantage of this coupon! Right now until May 2nd, you can use this coupon to get $5 off a $25 purchase. And since the coupon doesn't exclude diapers or wipes, I'm thinking you can stack it with manufacturer's coupons to get an even better deal. That is, if Babies R Us takes manufacturer's coupons. Anyone know? I'll call and find out.

(Thanks Hip 2 Save!)

FREE Roll of Reynolds Wrap Foil!

In the spirit of Earth Day, you can try Reynolds Wrap foil (made from 100% recycled aluminum)for FREE with a mail-in rebate. The rebate form won't be available until Earth Day (April 22nd), so if you click here, you can register to receive an email reminder. I'd like to say I'll be able to remember to remind you but seeing as how I lost my cell phone for a few hours today, that may not be the best idea. Just being honest.

New Target Printables!

It should be apparent that I'm rapidly becoming Target's number one fan =) I've been semi-stalking their grocery coupons page to see when new coupons will load, and today was my lucky day! Here is the list of new coupons available for print:

My Target Trip - 4/10

Total: $2.49

Target is quickly becoming my favorite place to stock up on free/cheap items. Here's how I did it.

4 Johnson Buddies Soap Bars - $.97 each
- (2) $2/2 printables
- $.75/1 Target printable
= - $.12

2 Gerber Graduates Animal Crackers - $1.89 each
- $3/1 printable
- $.50/2 Target printable
= 2/$.28

2 All Laundry Detergent - $4.54 each
- (2) $2/1 printables (no longer available)
- (2) $1/1 Target printables
= $1.54 each
*If you didn't get the $2/1 coupon, you can still print out a $1/1 coupon here*

2 Dry Idea Deodarants - $2 each
- (2) $2 printables (in my coupons.com widget)
= FREE

The Gerber Target coupons are good through the 25th so you better believe I will be making more trips back to stock up. And the Johnson Buddies deal is ongoing, so I'll also be back for those. I will need to figure out where I'm going to keep all my stockpiles though as we are rapidly running out of storage room. Any ideas?
