Target printable coupons- compatible with Windows7
We recently purchased a new laptop on black Friday and I love it! The only negative about it so far has been not being able to print the online Target coupons. Everytime I have tried, since they redid their coupon software, it says it is not compatable with Windows 7 and they were working on fixing it soon. I was so pleasantly surprised that when I tried to print a coupon tonight it let me download their software and print coupons!

BOGO gift cards at the Melting Pot
My husband and I have really enjoyed going to the Melting Pot lately. We sit at the bar and order during their happy hour time period between 5pm and 6:30pm. The cheese and chocolate fondues are half price and so are the martinis.
Right now the Melting Pot is having two promotions and I apologize for not telling you about the first one sooner as it is ending tomorrow. For every $10 you donate to St. Jude's hospital you will get a $20 gift card. We donated $100 and got $200 in gift cards to use later. The Melting Pot in Addison assures us that we can use all gift cards together. We plan on using these and another gift card that we have to take my family out for a nice dining experience when they visit for Christmas.
The other promotion is buy a $100 gift card and get (4) $25 bonus gift certificates to be used in 4 separate visits for yourself or to give to someone.
Check their site or store for more details.
You might want to check out this blog for more restaurants that offer extra/free gift cards when you purchase a gift card.

Pei We Entree 25%off - December 2nd
Pei Wei will be having their Holiday Food Drive on December 2nd. You will get an entree for 25% off when you bring in a non-perishable food item to be donated to the local food pantry. It looks like only one entree on each check can be discounted. We have gift cards here from my husband cashing in his credit card points so this will help the gift card go a little longer.
Our Black Friday purchases
My husband has always gone out on Black Friday to get deals. This year was no different and I was happy to stay home away from the early morning crowds.
We weren't really looking for very many items since I did most of my kids Christmas shopping at Target in July when toys were 75% off. (see here). My husband got the Radio Flyer Big Flyer at Walmart for $30 (normally $62-$92). He got 4 cordless phones for $50.00 and 20 FREE AA batteries from Staples. He went to two Best Buys and found the Toshiba 4 GB laptop computer with FREE printer and carrying case for $500. He also went to Sam's club and purchased a wireless printer. Later in the day we returned it.
Then to top off the day, we realized our couches downstairs were 12 years old and really shabby so we purchased a couch and love seat at Ashley Furniture. They were less than $1,000 with a warranty and delivery. I would say we did our part to stimulate the economy.

Glade Candle Deal at Target continues
This deal has been going on for a while now and I have done it a few times already. I might just start my own Glade Candle store! You need these coupons to get the best savings. You should also get $10.00 of Target gift cards back for buying the 10 items!
The top coupon is $2.00 off of TWO Glade scented candle products (They are found inside the holiday glass refillable candle holder. You might also have a $1.50 off of ONE glade candle holder or tin coupon which was found in the tins of the non-holiday scents.
The middle coupon was found in 10/1/09 Smart Source section of Sunday's newspaper. (I think)
The bottom coupon was found at a Smart Source blinkie machine at Kroger (I took five to do my deal). The blinkie machines are the ones that you can find around grocery stores that blink a red light then spit out a coupon for you.
There is also a printable coupon available here.
Here is the deal: For every five holiday Glade scented oil products purchased, you get a $5.00 gift card.
Buy 5 Holiday Scented Oil Candle holders (tins or decorative glass holder) $2.50 each
Buy 5 Apple Cinnamon or Bayberry Spice Scented oil candle refills $2.50 each
(Make sure you use the Price scanners found around the store. When you scan the item it should say $5.00 gift card beside the price, if it doesn't then it is not included)
Total= $25.00
Use (5) Buy Any Glade scented oil candles holder, and get a refill pack FREE coupon
-$12.50
Use (5) Save $1.50 on any Glade candle holder
-$7.50
or
(2) Save $2.00 on Two glade scented oil products and (1) $1.50 off of 1 scented oil holder
-$5.50
Pay $5.00 or $7.00, but get TWO $5.00 gift cards
End up with an overage of $5.00 or $3.00
You can then submit for $5.00 SC Johnson Rebates. You have to use original receipts so if you want to take advantage of the family limit of 3 rebates per household then you need to ask for multiple copies of the original receipts. I have gotten two with the managers help. I don't think they can do more than two at the checkout area.
Here is a pic of some of my loot from a couple of shopping trips.
I wanted to add that I was given a hard time over this by one manager at Target. She kept explaining to me that the one coupon for buy one get one free was a coupon to be used for the two items. The cashier was very rude and the manager was not helpful. There is no such rule listed in their Corporate coupon policy. I would love to see it in writing if they do have such a rule. I had the whole transaction voided and said forget it eventually. Let's just say that I was not the quiet, subdued, soft spoken person I normally am. I have never had such hard time before....there were several things that the cashier was fussing about, not just the glade deal. So, just a warning to others that you might be given a hard time. Try going to customer service. They usually know what to do with problems.

I know that others in the couponing world use a coupon on the other item that is not free as long as it is a different item. I used 10 coupons for 10 products. This deal should work. I did not get any beeping today and the deal worked just fine.

Freebies at Kroger this week
Here is a good post by Common Sense with Money about the Freebies at Kroger this week during their Mega event! Make sure you get 10, 20, 30 or more items so you are sure to get the extra $5.00 off per 10. I was not careful enough during the last mega event and somehow only had 9 items. I grouped my coupons for this sale in groups of 10 items so I will be sure not to make that mistake again.
Also, not included in the Mega event is the Yaki Soba noodles ($1.00 each). There are $0.50 off coupons which doubles to make them FREE as well.
Have fun saving!

Few helpful hints for the beginning couponer
I thought I would re-post this previous entry for anyone who did not get a chance to read it yet.
I would consider myself a beginning couponer but trying to learn quickly. I wanted to share some helpful hints I have learned recently.
These are several of the most popular websites for printing coupons:
Coupons.com
This is a great site to print coupons. There is a limit per print per computer and also a total print limit for each coupon available. Coupons limits get reset throughout the month and everything is reset on the first of each month. You need to put in your zip code for the town you live. For whatever reason, if you put in the zip code for Beverly Hills (90210) there seems to be better coupons...try it for yourself.
Redplum.com and SmartSource.com are both good sites to print coupons on your home printer.
Proctor and Gamble.com
This is a site you need to register for but you get coupons and free samples in the mail. You can also register your Kroger plus shopper's card and your Tom Thumb Reward card with P&G. By doing this, you will be able to utilize the P&G eSAVER. You may choose your own coupons to load onto your grocery store card and also print a list of the items you choose for your shopping trip (these seem to have a two month expiration date).
AllYou.com
All You is a magazine that you can subscribe to or can purchase at Walmart. There is frequently $70.00-$90.00 worth of coupons. Their website also has printable coupons available.
These sites are useful for clipless coupons:
Upromise.com
We actually signed up with Upromise as one of the ways to save for college over four years ago when we had our first child. We have close to $2,000 in our Upromise account without doing anything special...just shopping with our credit card. Check out the site if you haven't done so already. You can load coupons on your Upromise credit card and the amount is not saved on the item but put into your account instead. Many popular retail online shops give a percentage of the total amount purchased towards your Upromise account.
*A really helpful hint that I recently learned:* If you are are on a blog or site that takes you straight to something that has a button for a coupon for a specific product then after the first coupon prints make sure you press the back button then refresh button and it should automatically print another coupon for you. This was especially helpful recently when Smithfield bacon was on sale for 2 for $6.00. I had (2) $3.00 Q and I was able to get both packages for FREE at Tom Thumb!
A friend of mine said she recently got a virus on her computer when she went to a site to print coupons. We have not any problems with viruses. It would be a good idea to have your virus protection software up-to-date just in case.
It is a good idea to learn from my mistake and keep a file or sheet of paper with all of your login and password information. As you start signing up for more sites it gets harder to remember all of the passwords.

Let's all use our reusable shopping bags
I have several different reusable shopping bags but most of the time I leave them in the car. It seems that keeping track of two kids, my huge coupon notebook and my purse is all I can handle. If we have plastic bags around our house then I try to bundle them all up and return them to a store that has a bin that recycles them or use them for kitty litter waste. There are now several stores in our area that are jumping on the bandwagon to encourage use all with some incentives to use our reusable bags.
CVS recently started their green bag tag system. You purchase a green bag tag from CVS for $0.99 and get it scanned whenever you come into the store. Every 4th time you are get your bag tag scanned, you earn a $1.00 Extra Care Buck towards a purchase. I wonder if you could also get them to scan it for drive through pick up of prescription drugs?
Target has printed on the bottom of their receipt “Save 5 cents every time you use a reusable bag.
Sprouts also has an incentive for using reusable shopping bags. You get $0.05 credit for each reusable shopping bag you use as well.
Does anyone know of any other stores that are giving a credit for reusable shopping bags?

Would you like FREE tickets to the Theater?
Go here to freenightoftheater.net and click on the left hand side "Find a Show". These FREE tickets are available in many cities all over the country. In the Dallas Metro Area, there will be a new set of FREE tickets released on Monday, October 19th at 12 PM for performances occurring Oct. 22-Oct 28th. Write a little note on your calendar so you won't forget.
The purpose of this program is to reach people who would not normally go to the theater. Many people who have gotten the free tickets enjoyed their experience so much that they return again to purchase a ticket at a later date.
Target: Few freebies and Deals, $12.01 spent
I was shopping at Kroger on Preston yesterday and and got so excited when I found a display of the Kellogg's Antioxidant Fiber Plus bars. Maybe other Kroger's might have this display as well? There was a pad of manufacturers coupons for $1.00 off a box of these bars. I took 8 of them to use at Target since I knew this deal was still going on until 11/02.
Deals at Target:
- Buy 4 Kellogg's Fiber Plus bars (priced at $1.99 each) and get a $5.00 gift card. I used (8)$1.00 coupons, paid $0.99 for each box and got $10.00 back in Target gift cards to use for a future purchase. (This deal is not advertised in the sale ad or listed with the item but it worked for me) Ends up being FREE for 8 boxes plus overage.
- Buy 3 Kid Cuisines on sale for $1.75 and used a MQ for $1.00/3 from November All You magazine. $1.42 each

Have you used your TGI Fridays burger coupon?
Our TGI Fridays FREE Jack Daniels Burger or Chicken sandwich coupons are expiring today that we received by becoming fans of TGI Fridays on Facebook. If yours are too you might want to take advantage of the coupons today!
Our family went out to eat last night. I don't even remember the last time I ate at a TGI Fridays so the menu was unfamiliar to me. We ordered a pizza kids meal for the boys to split with fruit and an extra mixed fruit on the side. It was plenty for the two of them. I ordered the Jack Daniels Chicken sandwich and hubby ordered the Jack Daniels Burger. Mine came with an option of several sides and I got the salad. Hubby got the sweet potato fries. We both enjoyed them very much. It was a great dinner out and our total to pay was $6.68 plus tip. We would have spent more going to a fast food restaurant. Thanks Woody!
On our receipt there is a survey code and we will get a coupon for a free appetizer when we fill it out online.

I am back and ready to blog, few Target deals
I am back to reality after a week at the beach, a nice long visit with my lifelong friend and her two twin girls. It was busy with 4 children in the house for 11 days. I wanted to really devote all of my time to everyone instead of running to the computer every hour. We have had a some kind of cold virus since her visit and are trying to get back to feeling well.
Anyways, I got some good deals in the last week. I went back to Target last night to see what I could find. I think I am falling out-of-love with Target at the moment. After spotting my favorite cashier and starting the check out process, he called over the "trainer" (I found out it was the trainer's last night working at that store). Several items I was purchasing were not working with the coupons I was using. I know many others all over the country have had success with them. I ended up having the items removed from the transaction, pulling them out of my bags and getting my coupons back. I have never had such a hard time at Target before. Thank goodness I was alone and my children were not with me. That would have been a nightmare! My experience last night has turned me off with shopping at Target for a while.
Some decent deals at Target I found were:
$2.44 for a 7.8 oz Colgate Total Whitening paste with Free toothbrush package on end cap
I used $1.00 off MQ making it $1.44. Inside the box was $10.00 worth of Target coupons for more Colgate-Palmolive products. I can combine these with manufacturers coupons for some good deals or free items. The coupons don't expire until 12/31/2009.
3 Free bath Buddies by Johnson and Johnson. I used 3-$1.00 off MQs from newspaper.
(I plan on sending my receipt to Johnson and Johnson for a Free Elegant Baby Bath Toy Frog Set.)
$1.25 Market Pantry fruit snacks
$1.09 dozen eggs
$1.50 each for 8 oz block of cheese
$4.99 Jimmy Dean D-lights breakfast sandwiches (4-pack), used $1.00 MQ and $1.00 Target Q= $2.99 each.
$1.75 Chex Mix, used 1 $0.50 MQ and $1.00 Target Q= $0.25-$0.50 each
$4.49 Glade Reed infusers and large candles, used $3.00 off MQ= $1.50 each
