Check out my savings for the week below:
Hey, All!
I’m actually camping this weekend (yep…they have internet. Does that count as roughing it? If not, I think the lack of sleep we got last night due to one certain little boy and one obnoxiously loud bird should make up for any other conveniences we might have!) So, I’m going to wait until next week to share all of my steals and deals with you (I got some sweet ones!) I still want to see how you all did though, so leave a linky or a comment and share the savings love!

How are you using your Fuel for School Rebate?

I made our Kellogg’s Fuel for School Rebate Purchase at Walmart last night. Here’s how I spent it:
4 boxes of Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats @ $2.33 each
4 boxes of Kellogg’s Pop Tarts @ $1.88 each
2 packages of Keebler Fudge Shoppe Co0kies @ $2.88 each
Used:
(2) $1.50/2 Frosted Mini Wheats coupons here
(2) $1/2 Pop Tarts from RP 6/7/09
(2) $1/1 Keebler Fudge Shoppe Cookies here (not sure if this is still available)
In the end, I spent $.46 per item after coupons and rebate. We are going camping this weekend and needed some snacks that will fit into our All You Grocery Challenge budget. Plus each of the four Frosted Mini Wheats boxes had a coupon booklet inside which included $5 of coupons to use on breakfast foods–including a $1/1 Frosted Mini Wheats coupon. Definitely will use that!
So, here’s what I’m thinking. Why not check your Walmart to see if they have 10 boxes of Frosted Mini Wheats with the coupon booklets inside. Then pop those babies open before you buy them and use the coupons in the box? You could possibly score 10 boxes of Frosted Mini Wheats for only $.33 each after coupons and rebate! (You may want to bring along a couple of the other coupons listed above in case you can’t find these boxes though!)

So, I want to know! How are you spending your Fuel for School Rebate? I’ve seen some GREAT deal and moneymakers around the web. I’m providing a Mr. Linky today to let you link up your blog post about it. Or if you don’t have a blog, leave a comment and let us know! It always fun to find out how creative you all can get with your HOT deals!
Facebook: Free Caribou Cooler
So, here’s a question. What would you do for a FREE Caribou Cooler? Would you be willing to lose a smidge of your dignity?
If so, then you can get a printable coupon for a free medium Wild Cooler or Wild Brownie at Caribou Coffee when you sign up for the Wild Up application on the Caribou Coffee Facebook page. Then use one of your Facebook photos and add some “wild accessories” to it. You can print the coupon after you are finished with your picture.
I would soooo do this if we had a Caribou Coffee nearby. But since we don’t, I think you all should leave a link to your wild pics!
T.G.I. Friday’s: $5 off each additional entree

Restaurant.com Sale: 80% off
I’ve been wracking my brain trying to figure out how we are going to stay under budget for the All You Grocery Challenge this week since we are going camping with my family and plan on eating out at least twice.
So I was happy to discover that Restaurant.com has a special promotion going on right now. Get a $25 gift certificate for only $2 when you enter code: NAPKIN at check-out. Sweet! I checked and there is a nice selection of restaurants to choose from not far from our campground. (Now I just need to convince the rest of the family to join us!)
Most Restaurant.com gift certificates expire a year from purchase date, so you may want to snag this deal for later.
If you have never purchased a gift certificate from Restaurant.com, I would encourage you to be sure to read all of the details before purchasing. Sometimes there is a minimum amount that needs to be spent or you are required to purchase a certain amount of entrees. It is still a great way to save money, but just be sure to be informed!
Huggies Flushable Wipes Coupon
Would you like to have these great deals delivered right to your inbox? Subscribe to our email digest. Or if you use a feed reader, subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for stopping by!
I love it when I run out of an item and great deals start popping up.
We just ran out of flushable wipes, which are just nice to have with a 3 year old, y’know?
Well, according to Coupon Cravings, Huggies is rebranding their Clean Team wipes to “Pull-Ups Flushable Moist Wipes”. The travel-sized packages of these wipes are priced at $1.64 at Wal-Mart. Use the $3/2 coupon from the 7/19 SmartSource insert and you’ll get these for $0.14 each after the coupon.
(I have found these in the Health and Beauty section of my Wal-Mart.)
And then when I went to my mailbox today, I discovered a freebie I ordered from Wal-Mart a couple of weeks ago that included Scott Flushable Wipes. (This freebie is no longer available. Sorry!)
Thanks, Wal-Mart. =)
