The Beginning!

All good things must start somewhere. Day after day I encounter 'blog moments' where I tell myself that whatever it is that's happening - it would make a great blog post. However, I dont' have a blog. Oh well I do - blogs I've started in the past but never made it past 2 posts, etc etc. I want to change that. I want to begin blogging in earnest. Those of you that know me, I'm a couponer. I love savings. Any kind of savings. And I'd do whatever I can to get those good delicious savings. So, for now this blog will be about savings. And how you can get great stuff for yourself and your kids and your family - for little or no cost. Of course, my daily random 'blog moments' will be blogged too. I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoy writing it. Well - I hope to enjoy writing it. And I'm SURE your pockets will like the great deals I will be posting.

I'm going to start you off with a great deal. Pampers. Huggies. Luvs. Diapers! August and September's Parents magazine carried a bright orange pull out coupon insert featuring 20% off any diaper purchase at Amazon.com. August's Parenting Magazine carried the coupon as well. In addition, Amazon.com is offering free 2 day shipping on diapers, and 30% off your diapers purchase if you 'subscribe and save'. That is, you say you want regular shipments of the dipes - of course you can cancel that service minutes after you place your order. Oh and lastly, there's a $1.50 instant coupon for Pampers brand diapers. So, head over to Amazon.com - and select a nice big box of Diapers in the size you want. Chose Pampers brand for the best deal. Purchase the above magazines for the coupons. Try to get all 3. One is better then nothing though. Your diapers would start at about $40 a box, and after the 30% off subscribe and save it should go down to about $28, and after the 20% off coupon from one of the Mags - it should go down to about $20, and then there's the $1.50 coupon instantly applied at checkout - that brings you down to about $18, and then feel free to add the additional 20% off coupons from the other magazines - the next one should bring your order down to about $10, and the final one should bring you down to about $3! That's right. $3 for a super-sized big box of almost 200 diapers - depending on the size. The beauty in this deal is that the differnet coupon codes 'stack'. That is, you can apply all 3 - from all 3 magazines - provided of course that the first digit in the couopn is a differnet letter. If you get the September Parents magazine, and the August Parents, and August Parenting - you'll get all 3 different beautiful codes. Many drugstores still have these mags in stock!

I hope you get to save some $$$ with my first post - and I should have a new deal coming up in a day or so!  Take care for now!
