Rainbow Double Coupons

It looks like Rainbow is no longer going to double coupons this year. I think there has been some talk about contacting corporate and asking them to change their mind. Until then it looks like Rainbow probably won't have too many good deals

Feeling a little better

Alright, I'm feeling a little better and pretty bored because I haven't done a thing all week long. I figured that I would write up a few things that I noticed. These will probably be pretty random, just things that I would like to get if I make it out this weekend. There are a couple of great free or overage deals so that's what I'm looking at right now.

CVS
Energizer rechargeable 4pk batteries $8, -$2 peelie on pkge, -$6 ECB WYB 2, $3/15 CVS=2/$3
Hellmann's Mayo $2.50, -.40/1 MF x4, -$3 ECB WYB $10, -$2/$10=4/$3.40
(this deal is good on lipton tea, Skippy and Ragu also. Haven't found the coupons for those produts yet)
Arm & Hammer Toothpaste $1.99, -$.75/1MF, -$1 ECB, =1/$.025 Great filler to bump you up for your $/$$ coupons.

This is the deal I'm excited about. I can get a months worth or diapers for $3-$4 after ECBs when all is said and done. My OOP might be a little lower because I have some Cash Register Tape (CRT) coupons from CVS to help give me an overage.


Garnier Fruituse face clothes $5.99x2=$11.98
Robitussin $6x2=$12
Advil PM $4x2=$8
Stayfree $3.29
Huggies $8.88x3=$26.64
Total=$61.91

Coupons,
$10/50 CVS
$2/10 CVS
$2/1 x2 Garnier
$3/1 x2 Robitussin Printable found here $3 off Robitussin IP
$2/1 x2 Advil PM printable found here $2 off Advil PM IP
$2/1 x2 Huggies Printable found here Huggies coupon Answers are Pampers and toddler
$1/1 Huggies MF coupon (printable is limit 2 per computer, use another computer to get 3)

Total=$31

ECB
$3.29 Stayfree
$10 WYB $20 worth of Advil/Robitussin
$7 WYB 2 Garnier
$5 WYB $25 worth of Huggies products
Total=$21.29

Total OOP is $5.62 You could make it a little less if you are able to get 3 huggies printables. Also I think there is a $1/1 MF for the Stayfree, but I just can't find mine. I will have 3 huggies and I also have a CRT for $2.50/$10 in over the counter meds so my OOP will be $2.12. Not a bad deal being I really only want the diapers.

If you don't have enough ECBs to do the transaction all in one you can break it up amounts that fit your ECBs, just make sure that you maximize your $/$$ coupons so that you will still get the most for your money.

Also if you don't need the huggies you could use the overage from the other products on anything you want. I think there is a $6.02 overage before you add in the huggies so you could use this on anything you actually need.

Esther is Sick

Hi Everyone,

This is Becca. Esther came down with what Noah had late last night, so she asked me to post and let everyone know that she's not able to post anything on the Rainbow Foods deals for tomorrow (Wed.) This is the second time the flu has hit their house in about two weeks, so we can keep them in our prayers! It seems like they have been sick a lot this winter. Also pray for Jason because he has had to stay home from work and school to take care of Noah and Esther. Hopefully he doesn't catch it!

If anyone finds any good deals you can email Esther or post a comment on the blog. I will be checking the blog until she gets better.

Have a good night!

Coupon Train

I started a poll for the coupon train. I thought that I would be able to see who was voting so I would know who was interested and we could get it up and going, but I guess that isn't how it works. If you are interested in the coupon train why you add a comment with your name or just send me an email. That way I know who is voting. Thanks

FREE sting cheese at Target

Target has a printable coupon for $.50 off 2 Market Pantry (MP) cheese. This coupon is working on the individual string cheese. They are supposed to be around $.22-$.24 each. It is also giving the overage without beeping. I haven't tried it yet, but will post an update after I have run through it. The coupon can be found on the Target webiste here.

Noah is sick

Noah went to Grandma Judy's yesterday, but came up early this morning because he was throwing up. He did pretty good all day, but started throwing up again this evening. I am trying to work on the list this evening, but I'm not really sure how it will go this week. I think that I will probably post it in sections when I get a store or two done.

If I don't get it done; make sure to check out the buy 10 get $5 off at CUB, and double coupons at Rainbow.

Double coupon week at Rainbow

Hey all, just wanted to remind you that this Wednesday, Jan 30 is double coupon day at Rainbow. You need to spend $25 BEFORE coupons. They will double up to 5 coupons. They only double up to $1 so your $1 coupon becomes $2, but a $1.50 coupon isn't doubled get it? You can use as many coupons as you want and they will pick the highest value coupons to double.

If you got cereal two weeks ago and still have milk coupons they will expire this week. If you use them on Wednesday it is a great way to get your total closer to $25 without having to spend more money. Remember that they will give you the full $3.75 per coupon.
