Old Navy 50% off all swim for the family Saturday, May 25th only!

I was in Old Navy yesterday and saw that they are having a swim sale tomorrow  50% off all swim for the entire family.  This does exclude clearance, but for example, girls swimsuits are around $12 full price, so $6 for a girls swimsuit can't be beat.  Don't know the prices on the women's swimsuits there, but I am sure that there are deals to be had!

Free Disney Parks Planning DVD!

I keep seeing this on my coupon blogs, so I thought I would mention it.  We would love to do Disney in the next few years, but have no idea even where to start.  This DVD has come highly recommended, so fill out the info and look for the free DVD in the mail very soon!

Shopkick app: 200 walk in points at Target, Old Navy, Macy's, Best Buy today only!

Apparently, it it some sort of Black Friday event today and you can get your 200 kicks from Shopkick today.  Of course, I just visited Target and Old Navy yesterday, should I go again???

For those of you who don't know, Shopkick is an app that awards you points simply for walking into certain stores (such as the ones above.)  Once you reach a certain number of points, you can redeem those points for gift cards.  Don't quote me on this, but as far as Target, I think once you reach 500 points, you get a $2 gift card.  I am saving all of my points up (I am around 2500 at this point) and cashing in at Christmastime.

My weekly grocery stopping - Price Chopper and CVS - spent $23 for $100 retail!


No meat this week - just bought some staples and some treats.  I was most excited about the BBQ sauce and DiGiorno pizzeria pizza from Price Chopper.  I told you about the $1/2 peelies on the display, well, they were still there when I was at the store yesterday.  I used 5 $1/2 coupons to get the BBQ sauce for 50 cents each.  Also, the DiGiorno pizza was $3.99 and there is a $2/1 coupon from coupons.com to get a pizza for $1.99.  That is THE lowest price you will see on this product.  

I headed to CVS as well.  I spent $9 and got 4 Oreos with $1/1 coupon (NLA) and 2 $1/50/1 coupons for the milk (NLA.)  I also bought MORE Diet Coke, you can NEVER have too much, right?

I don't plan to head to HyVee or Hen House this week - I didn't see much in either of their ads.  But, I am sure next week will be totally different and I might just head to Hen House or just HyVee.  Who knows?

What did you find this week????

Free women's flip flops this upcoming week!

Women's flip flops are free with coupon starting tomorrow.  Just use the $2/1 women's sandals coupon coupons.target.com to score a pair for free!

Grocery deals for the week of May 16th-22nd

Here are the best deals (in my opinion) for the KC grocery stores.  Looks like a sweet Price Chopper week!

Price Chopper:
DiGiorno frozen pizza $3.99 (limit 2) (Use $2/1 DiGiorno Pizzeria Pizzeria if included coupons.com or use $1.50/1 SS 4/21 or $1/1 RP 5/12)
Chobani Champions tubes $2.00 (Use $1/1 coupon to get these for $1.  Seriously, these are the best things ever and are usually our dessert for the kids.) chobani.com  

Price Chopper is doing a 4 day sale 10/$10.  Remember, you do NOT have to buy 10 items to get the prices.  You can buy just 1 item if you want or 15, the price remains $1.  Here are some deals that are pretty good:

Powerade:  Buy 10, get 5 free (stock up price if you like Powerade)
Colgate toothpaste $1 (Use $1/1 coupons.com to score 2 for free!  I want to check this out to verify, but don't think I am going to make it out today. Hopefully tomorrow.)
Armour/Hormel pepperoni $1 (hormel.com and armour.com both have $1/2 coupons to get the pepperoni for 50 cents)
Garland Jack's Secret Six BBQ sauce $1 (Use $1/2 SS 5/12 to get them for 50 cents.  Every time I have been at Price Chopper, there have been coupons sitting right on the display so I have several saved up.  If you go to the Price Chopper on Woodlawn (our favorite!) the display is at the back of the store by the milk.  Worth checking out!

Hen House:
Roberts orange juice $1.59 (Use 50 cents/1 SS 3/3 or 3/24 to get them for 50 cents)
Corn on the cob 25 cents on the husk

HyVee:
Powerade:  15 for $8.  (Stock up price if you like Powerade.)  This is a better deal than Price Chopper.  Use the in ad coupon to get them for this price.  Valid Thursday and Friday only.  If this is your deal, I would go today.  HyVee seems to have a little trouble sometimes keeping their supply up.
Eggs 88 cents.  Valid Thursday and Friday only.
Xtra laundry detergent $2

Aldi's
Lettuce head 69 cents
Sweet corn in the tray 99 cents for 4

Victoria's Secret special: Buy one Body by Victoria bra, get another for $25!

I think that I have been waiting for this sale for awhile.  Nice bras like these run $55-$65, so getting two bras for $80 or $90, usually $110 or $120 is a nice savings, indeed!

It seems to be an in store event.  I might have to grab my hubby or a good friend and head in.  This is one of the stores I REFUSE to take my kids into - trying on underwear with Mommy is not my 3 year old or  year old's idea of a good time!

Men, if you are still looking for a Mother's Day idea, maybe this is it. Every woman loves a bra from Victoria's Secret!

Mother's Day flowers deals at the grocery stores

Well, I told my hubby not to buy flowers for Mother's Day this year because they are crazy expensive to deliver, but I do like the idea of picking them up at the store so I might pick up some pretty flowers while out shopping this week!

Hen House flower deals:
Red or assorted dozen roses for $9.99.  No vase included.  
Tulips 15 stem for $11.99.  No vase included.  These are the ones I want!  I may pick them up and put them in a pretty vase myself!
100 plus spray rose blooms for $19.99

Price Chopper flower deals:
Dozen roses for $9.99
Knockout roses for $9.99
10 inch ferns for $9.99

Grocery deals for the week of May 8th-14th

Here are the good grocery deals for the week (in my opinion):

Wild Cold water lobster tails $3.99 
AE Yogurt 33 cents (limit 12)
Strawberries $2.99/2 pounds

Hen House:
Blueberries $2.99 (It is not a stock up price, but it has been SOOO long since we have seen blueberries under $3, I just might have to splurge and pick some up.)

With a new-trampoline smell still fresh in the recently opened, indoor jump center's air, bouncers somersault and catapult across Cosmic Jump's 29,000-square-foot of arenas. Four lanes run the length of the main trampoline area, with angled pads at the ends and, in the center, a high vault called The Summit that can only be cleared by heroic bounds or hitching a ride on a mountain goat. After dark, Cosmic Jump transforms into a glowing jump zone as a premium sound system blasts music, with LED black lights and colorful lights pulsing to the beat. Trampolines also host body-sculpting boot camps, dodge-ball classes, and Latin cardio dance classes designed to strengthen the core. Cosmic jump also hosts a wide variety of special events and birthday parties.

Half priced hand mixed shakes!

Sonic is starting their half priced mixed shakes after 8:00!  Yummy!

What flavor will you get?

A GREAT Mother's Day idea!

I would LOVE this!

All of us mothers know that our house is immaculate at all times, but it would be nice to have someone to come in and clean it professionally for us.  I have been eyeing this groupon and it is worth checking out.  

www.groupon.com/deals/brenda-s-house-cleaning-kansas-1?pt=aUYlQ2DAAAABLQGK97WmQuxgsL3I24L8b

Here is what the groupon says:

Choose from Two Options

  • $49 for two man-hours of housecleaning (a $120 value)
  • $99 for four man-hours of housecleaning (a $240 value)
Bonded and insured housecleaners bring all necessary supplies for a general houseclean and spend two or four hours dusting, vacuuming, and sanitizing surfaces. Prior to the service, clients need only pick up clothing, toys, and other misplaced household items to help ensure the most thorough cleaning.

Brenda’s House Cleaning

Brenda’s House Cleaning’s licensed and insured cleaners take a personal interest in each home they serve. Along with sending the same staff cleaner to the same home for each visit, they take the time to learn special requests and concerns. Clients can opt to alternate between deep-cleaning services and standard weekly or biweekly housecleaning sessions to maintain a level of tidiness akin to Mary Poppins's summer home. To back their stalwart service, Brenda's House Cleaning vows to return within 24 hours at no extra cost if a morsel of dirt goes untouched.

$5 off $10+ purchase at Hallmark!

http://www.hallmark.com/offers/store-offers/?mc=T_M_NA_MD_GC_FB_5off10Coupon

Just in time for Mother's Day!!!!

And, of course, I JUST did my card shopping. Oh well, I am sure that I can find something I can't live without.  I love the Hallmark at 119th and Blackbob - they are so friendly there!

My grocery shopping for the week: Spent $33, Retail was $93!


I shopped this week at all 3 stores;  HyVee, Hen House, and Price Chopper.  I usually don't do all 3 stores, but there were good deals to awesome to pass up.  

I did the Diet Coke for $4.99 (and I will head back at least one, if not two more times to take advantage of that price.)  I also did the eggs for 69 cents and the bananas for 39 cents.  Spent $7.

Next, I went to Hen House.  I got my McCormick taco seasoning using the 50 cent/2 coupon from the paper plus the printable (check my earlier post on grocery deals for the week for the link.)  I used 7 coupons and got 14 for free!  I also got 5 pounds of boneless skinless chicken for $1.99 each.  Total at Hen House was $12.

Lastly, I went to Price Chopper.  I did their buy 10, get $10 off sale.  It ends today and you really need to take advantage of it!  Even if you don't want to use coupons, there are still awesome deals.  Check my grocery deals post for ideas.  I got 8 peaches and cream corn for 29 cents each, 6 Oscar Meyer deli meats, 2 Crystal Lights, and 2 Velveeta Skillets.  I also purchased 4 blow pops at 20 cents each, but more on that later.

I used 3 $1/2 Oscar Meyer deli fresh meats coupon coupons.com, the Crystal Light $1/2 coupon from last week's paper, and 2 $1/1 Velveeta Skillets coupons.com to get these 10 items for under $10 total!  Total at Price Chopper was $14 for $45 retail.

The Price Chopper trip was chaotic to say the least.  My kids are great with me shopping like 99% off the time.  They know what to expect, but, hey, they are kids.  

Is it possible for a grocery store to make sure that all of their seat belts actually work in those car carts?  It happens to me every time, you would think I would figure it out by now.  By the time I got my kids settled in and sitting down, I had to move everything into a new cart.  At checkout, my son smashed his fingers between the car cart and the checkout lane (because, seriously, they don't make the checkout lanes wide enough for the car carts) and I couldn't move the cart to save my life.  I finally did while everyone just stared at me and got him out to calm him down before setting him down for just a second.  I am watching the register because I am one of the THOSE people who stare at every item and coupon scanned to make sure I am charged correctly when I discover my son is two isles over frantically unwrapping Charm's blow pops and sticking them in his mouth.  Oh yes, he has also kicked off his rain boots and his socks, at least he still had his pants and shirt on!  So, I got to pay for 4 blow pops which both my children just threw on the ground as we left Price Chopper.  

Just another day in the life!

Another groupon - Harlem Globetrotters Summer Skills Camp and tickets to a game



I loved going to the Harlem Globetrotters games when I was a kid!  I saw this and thought it looked like fun.  Too bad my kids are too little.  Read about this groupon below.

Kids learn best when there’s a little glitz and showmanship involved, which is why most teachers end their history lessons by dunking the textbook and endorsing their loafers. Immerse your budding superstar in a learning environment with this Groupon.

$55 for a Harlem Globetrotters Skills Clinic and Game (Up to $99 Value)


  • Two-hour basketball clinic for one child age 6–12 (a $59 value)
  • Two ticket vouchers to see a Globetrotters game in 2014 (one ticket is complimentary with clinic admission; the other is worth up to a $40 value)
Choose between clinics at either 9 a.m. or 3:30 p.m. on one of the following dates:

An interesting groupon - The Package Tour with New Kids on the Block featuring 98 Degrees and Boys to Men

Don't laugh at this post - but this is my childhood!  New Kids on the Block, Boys to Men and 98 Degrees all at the Sprint Center July 21st.  I remember sitting in my room playing these cassette tapes over and over.  My neighbor down the street had a NKOTB pillow and sleeping bag.

24 dollars for nosebleed and $42 for better seating.

I guess it is not selling well since it is on groupon, but I would totally do a girls night and go...
