Check this out! Money Mailer Coupons online

Coupons, Food, general, Uncategorized
Where to find local coupons in your area? I plan on going out to dinner this evening and remembered that I saw a coupon in one of those home mailers but I had no idea which ones.  I came across the Money Mailer coupon website.  I'm pretty impressed.  I usually go through the Money Mailer and throw away most of them and sometimes I just don't have the time to flip through.  This is a great alternative. Click HERE to go the site!  Just enter in your zip code.  I recommend when printing to create the file in .pdf and then print.

Here is how to save during the Open Season Work Benefits 2009

general, Health, Uncategorized
[caption id="attachment_1585" align="aligncenter" width="342" caption="Copyright Holly's Savings"][/caption] It's that time of year again!  Most companies are starting their open season for work benefits.   I'm writing this to remind everyone that this is very important.  If you have your own separate policies that is probably one of the best moves you can make.  You might be spending more in some areas but you have a contract directly with the insurance company that you can take with you.  When you work for a company and leave that company you lose those benefits.  It is important if you don't have your own policies you take this open season very seriously. This is where you can save a lot of money during the year.  Let me explain why. (more…)

CVS Shopping Trip 10/10/09

CVS, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Cost: $2.67 OOP $6.67 ECBs $9 Saturday was a busy day!  My daughter and I went to both Rite Aid and CVS. Here is a little information on why CVS shopping can be so worth it.  I got all of this for under $3 but you will notice that I got some products that I might not need.  Right now I have a pretty good stockpile of shampoo, conditioner, soap, nail polish and toothpaste,  but because these items were free or close to free it helped me get the diapers that I needed for really cheap!  I can take these products donate them, give them away, stockpile them or  use them for other purposes.  There are some great blogs that talk about other uses for products like my husband can…
