$3 movies at Target!

This is from Deal Seeking Mom:


What a great way to stock up on some early Christmas gifts! Print the $2 off Movie Staycation coupon (Target version), and take it to Target to get a number of movies for only $3.

The coupon is in PDF format, so you can print it multiple times, and it’s valid on any Columbia Pictures movie, not just those shown.

Reader Teresa got the following movies for just $3 each:

• Madeline
• Little Women
• Muppets From Space
• Elmo in Grouchland

Wow! That's a good deal!

5 coupon inserts this Sunday!!

Seriously---5 inserts! That's alot of coupons and there are some REALLY good ones that go great with recurring deals at Publix and the grocery stores. So NOW is the time to start couponing, if you never have!! Please buy AT LEAST 2 papers, so you have 2 coupons for buy-one-get-one-free deals. But I will get 8-10 papers probably. I buy mine at Walgreens, where they are $0.75!

Also, I will post a beginners guide to the stores, couponing methods, and couponing lingo this weekend, so hopefully that will be helpful to you!

For a full list of this Sunday's coupons go here. (Thank you, For the Mammas!) (Coupons sometimes vary by region, so this is only a guideline.)

Target toy clearance!!

According the Surviving the Stores, Target's 75% off toy clearance begins today! She mentions rumors that outdoor merchandise is marked down 90%!

Stock up now for Christmas or birthdays! This is one of those situations where things get picked through quickly, so check it out soon and post a comment if you score any good deals!!

Welcome to my new blog!

Thanks for stopping by to see my new blog! First and foremost I am a follower of the King and seek to honor Him in all I do. Jesus is the creator of my adventure and my greatest pursuit. He provides daily for me and my family, but I have had to learn to live on less as I order my life around the things that are really of greatest value.

I am all about a bargain, whether it comes to feeding my family, decorating my home, or adding to my wardrobe. I love sharing with others how I save money, and I hope this blog will serve to help someone else with the same goal as I have: to live on less, and have fun while doing it!

I also hope it will serve as an encouragement to others who are looking for a life of adventure and risk. Here's a few highlights of the kinds of posts I plan to include:

Weekly Walgreens & CVS drugstore deals
Weekly Publix deals
Centsable design (decorating on a budget)
Centsable fashion (cute looks for less)
Living the Adventure: thoughts on risky living in everyday life

I will begin with drugstore deals and grocery deals, and begin to add elements as I go along. Please become a follower of my blog or bookmark my site on your favorites list!

I hope you will join me on this adventure! Please post comments and offer your feedback! Thanks for stopping by!
