Amazon is offering a great deal on 24 packs of ready to drink Slim Fast. They are on sale for 19.12, but if you click Subscribe and Save they go down to 16.25. Then, if you enter the coupon code SLIM2OII at checkout they go down to 13.38 a case! The coupon is good until Feb. 28th.

Just wanted to let you know how much I’ve enjoyed your website and the amount of things I’ve learned especially ways to save money. I’m a first time parent to a 2 months old baby girl and it’s awesome that you guys take the time to share your knowledge with us. Thanks =)
On another note, I was wondering if you know of any diapers, wipes and formula deals in Hawaii. She is currently on Enfamil and used Pampers Dry Max. Unfortunately, Amazon charges a crazy shipping fee to Hawaii.

Wanted to let you know that the March edition of Parents magazine has the $10 off Amazon coupon. I looked in two different ones when I was in line at the grocery store and they both had one in it. It’s very exciting! Time to stack them with the 20% off codes. YAY CHEAP DIAPERS!!

Not sure if this is worth posting or not, but I thought it was a pretty good deal:
If you go to http://www.sevenslings.com/ and enter the Promo Code “ARIZONA”, they will take $39 off your order which means a free baby sling of your choice. You only pay the shipping (about $11).

I need to get 4 Sunday Papers and the prices are outrageous. I was wondering If you can get me a deal. I have called the standard and the tribune and they want between $200-$300 a year just for the sunday paper. They would not work with me on a price. I use to get 4 papers for 20 weeks for $40.00. I thought that was an awesome deal. If you could get back with me that would be great.

Thanks, Annette Bodrero

I find it very difficult to try to get points online from the receipt of my prescription. Please make it easier……maybe by allowing it to happen IN THE STORE……instead of online…and advise me how to get my points from my receipt online. Frustrated again and again

If you could add Homeland and United to that list! Those are the only grocery stores in my town. Have to travel over 80 miles to get to the stores you have listed. All the gas would eat up my savings. :(

Hey guys!
I too am using the Moritz list and have been swapping out lists with a few other bloggers who are also using it. I compile a “mean” Harvey’s and Publix AD matchups list y’all!(I am from south GA. so “y’all” is more my speed)! Would y’all at all be interested in doing a list swap?!? You can check out my website to see the quality of my list.
Thanks So Much and God Bless,

Hi Guys! I am one of your fans from Michigan (Thrifty Al, I was one of your readers you featured for the target deals a few months ago) and I have a submission for your work from home ideas –
I JUST (like last Friday!) resigned from my position/career after 9 years, to be a stay at home mom/wife. I have a 2 year old. 7 years ago, I started a Calligraphy Studio named “Graceful Expressions”. I am a calligrapher, and I am able to make a sizeable income from home addressing wedding invitations, placecards, corporate work, etc. I am self-taught, and have never taken a professional course in my life. For anyone that has beautiful handwritting, or those artistic types, this may be a great suggestion. I was able to get started for under $100, run my own website, and when I am doing projects, the client supplies the items – so there are no products I need to purchase before hand, except for ink which lasts forever! I do several bridal shows a year, and that takes care of my business. Right now I have already booked 2012 brides! I decided to quit my job and stay at home, and actually with taking my son out of daycare and eliminating some of the other expenses, the income I can generate from Calligraphy is fairly close to what my salary was! (and my little guys sits next to me as I read aloud the addresses and cities, states, and zip codes and colors!)

Do you ever do grocery ad match ups for Wegmans grocery store? I live in Upsate NY, and am always checking your blog for good deals ( especially diapers and wipes! ), and noticed that Wegmans isn’t on your list.

We noticed recently that your Twitter feed has been sharing out news regarding Pampers Kandoo and its products and that you run a blog. In doing a quick cross-check with our blogger database, it doesn’t seem that we have you as a current participant. And we’d like to change that around.

If you would like to receive direct information on our deals, promotions and samples, please let me know and we can create a profile for you. Most of our communication is via email. The only exception would be if we have new product to share for review/sampling, etc.

All we will need to opt you in is the following information:

Name
Email Address
Mailing Address

We hope you will join us.

Thanks!

I can’t print your Good Bites dog treat coupon says $2 off at Target, I have a Mac. Really what’s the point of a site with coupons that don’t print, page comes up completely blank when I click on the coupon.

Hello Thrifty Couple,
I need serious helpful advice. I wanted to try the whole couponing thing. So I started getting Sunday Papers. I clipped, and clipped. I pulled out the coupons I needed to do my shopping and went to the local Walmart. I live in a very rural area. The only other “supermarket” in town is a “Save-aLot” which is a deep discount “off brand” type of market. I do not live near any other major stores.
In any case, I went through Walmart and in EVERY instance but one, I found that buying what I NEEDED of the Walmart brand, I saved money. For instance
I had a coupon for50 cents off any Gorton’s Fish product. I wanted to purchase fish sticks. So I get there, and Gorton’s Fish Sticks were 4.98 the Great Value Brand was 3.48. Now I’m not super at math but even I can subtract so I feel that when it comes to saving money, it made more sense financially to scrub the coupon, and purchase the Walmart brand. I walked out of the store that night, having purchased what I needed but not saving anything because the store brand was the better deal. So, my question is, what do I need to do to re train my thinking? I am assuming that this must be the problem. What else should I be doing? If I could make couponing work for me, I would be all over it, but I just don’t see how this is going to work. Can I be helped?
( It should be noted our rural Walmart does not accept computer printed coupons, nor do they take register receipts from other stores.)
If couponing will not work for me, please just let me know, so I can stop feeling so guilty over what I DO spend on groceries.
Thanks.
(PS, I am open to any responses in regards to my question. I’m not above learning )

Hi Kim, the Walgreens and Rite Aid that you are seeing is just a snippet of the list. You will want to click on the “display all matchups” button to reveal the whole list which would then show CVS, plus Walmart, Target, Babies R Us, Kmart and more! Hope that helps!

Love your email savings!!! I wanted to let you know that I was in Target yesterday buying gum and they had the 3 pack gums marked down and the Shawn White gum was marked down 2 for $5 and there was a coupon on the package for $2 off!!! That made the 3 pack .50 cents!!

Hi Thrifty’s ;)

First off, I love your site! I am an avid couponer from Canada, and I’m exploring how Canadians can adopt some of the tips and tricks of couponing experts down south. I also wanted to share that I just recently built a site that turns daily deal vouchers (from Groupon, TIPPR, etc.) in to gift certificates for free. It’s called http://www.Presentify.me, and it now works in the U.S. as well! I thought of the idea because I wanted to give daily deal vouchers as gifts, but didn’t like how plain they are. It’s a perfect tool to help people save some money on great gifts (especially last minute gifts!), so I thought I’d share it with you and your readers. Here’s an awesome animated YouTube video we made that gives a quick overview: http://youtu.be/CLNJvyMtwxY. Hope you love it!

Happy Holidays!

Alex

I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your website and I have certainly gotten alot of money saving ideas which I greatly appreciate. I did just want to make a couple of quick comments. Thank you for sharing your story about your Christmas budget. I was curious about whether or not you guys utilized your local library? Also, with regard to your running out for milk. I was wondering if you freeze it? Will you use all that before it expires?
Thanks. Best wishes to you and your family for the New Year.
