The Coupon Junkie*

WELL... I had 2 Lego BDay presents to buy, 1 for this weekend and one in a couple weeks, so considering Legos aren't cheap I was trying to figure out how I was going to do this the cheapest way! So last night i checked my email and say there was a coupon for BOGO1/2! PERFECT! So I picked up two $34.99 sets. I also got two carters outfits and a pair of xmas Jammies for Braeden and a pack of M&Ms for a filler item [needed to spend $100]. [Sorry i don't have a picture to post... the people's kids who they are for read my blog ;-)] So my subtotal was $105. I handed over my $10/100 TRU Coupon and it went right through. Then gave my $3/3 Birthday Club Coupon as well as my Lego Coupon. After the cashier scanned the last 2 coupons he hands me back the $10/100 and tells me i now cant use it cause using the other two coupons made my total $85. I said yeah, but my subtotal was $105! So he starts getting up in arms about it. I didn't feel like arguing and i DON'T know exact...

Seeing as both my kids birthdays are in November I have to start planning in the summer considering xmas is right after!!! So I have the majority of their stuff done, so now I'm just picking up things as the sales start popping up and coupons for toys start coming out! This is what I got today! 1 - Chuck Stunt Set @ $19.99 [B, for XMAS...already got him the big part of the set] - used the $10/1 Manf Q 2 - Littlest Pet Shop Figures @ $5.49 - used BOGO LPS Manf Q 1 - DS Game Cartridge Holder @ $9.99 [K, for XMAS]. 1 - Imaginext Vehicle @ $2.44 [B, Birthday] 1 - Camo Lion PJs @ $14 Orig. $20 Used $10/$50 & $10 TRU GC  Total Oop = $20.22!! [so i pretty much paid for the Chuck Set!] Total Before Savings = $70.48 Total Savings = $50.26!

Every time this commercial comes on Braeden goes nuts!! He has a bunch of Chuck Trucks and plays with with daily, so we knew we wanted to get this for him!! There was a coupon in this past Sundays paper for $10 off the Chuck Play set, and it just so happens to be on sale this week for $29.99 reg. $39.99. Then yesterday i got a $5/25 TRU coupon in the mail, so i combined the two and it made the play set $15.93!! Awesome deal, i think! There are other parts to the one we got him, which i think my parents are going to get him for xmas! He will be so excited!

Tomorrow at Toys R Us My little Pony are BOGO !  ! There are a few great deals with this.... Use the BOGO Single pony friends playsaver coupon and get 2 for free! Use the bogo TRU sale to get one free and then the coupon to get the other for free! They may make you buy one more depending on the cashier but if they do 3 for the price of one is better then nothing! Thanks AMANDA!!!

[Thanks to Hip2Save ] Check out this awesome bargain you can score at Toys R Us! Thru 2/27, the Pictureka Flipper game is on sale for just $6.98! Plus, you can use the $5/1 coupon from here to bring the cost of this game down to just $1.98! Now that’s what I call a sweet deal! If Toys R Us is sold out, then I suggest heading on over to Walmart or Target to do a price match. Just make sure to bring in the Toys R Us weekly ad , so they can honor the $6.98 price.

I have a Dr. apt tomorrow and my husband is coming with me. We will have the baby with us. I was trying to figure out how we would take him in the office with us w/o him wiggling around the whole time and Driving Dave nuts. Obv our Jeep stroller would be wayyyy to big! So i decided to run to TRU to see what they had. I had nothing in mind other than i needed to get a umbrella stroller. I looked at all the ones they had on display and saw the Fisher-Price Precious Plants stroller was on sale for $29.99 Orig. $49.99! and all the basic umbrella strollers were $29.99, so i figured i might as well get the more expensive one for the same exact price as a basic one! The only one left was the one up on the display, so i took that one, and course there was no tag on it so i peeled off the big red and white sale tag that was attached to the shelf -- figured it was the last one so w/e. The cashier thanked me for bringing the tag up other wise she woulda had to go get it herself. She then scans it...

We went to get a gift card for my cousins birthday party but ended up shopping!! I ended up needing more hangers than i got@ target so i picked up 3 more packs @ $1.99 a piece. Got 2 XMas presents: Little Mermaid book for Kaitlyn -- we're getting her the Tag LeapFrog reading thing for either her bday or xmas, there was a $4 off coupon for the books in the TRU book making them $9.00 & for the baby we got the Laugh & Learn tool bag, that was $15.99 and they let us use the $3 off the Laugh and Learn Purse coupon [even tho they weren't supposed to ;-)] coupon, so it ended up being $12.99! I got Pampers 160 ct. diapers & 560 ct. wipes. Toys R Us lets you use as many manf. coupons as your heart disieres on one or more packs of diapers/wipes etc!!!! i used like 5-6 $1.00 off coupons!! Although i spent $13.92 on the wipes & $33.06 on diapers i still got the diapers for .4 a piece & wipes for .2 a piece!!! I highly doubt either will go to waste!!! ...and anything tha...
