COUPONING CRAZY

Hello Everyone,

As you can see this is my biggest haul in one day and it only cost about $25.00.  I did a total of 6 transactions at three different CVS stores (2 ran out of the Scott Paper Towels) and 1 curbside express order. I am done for now when it comes to Scott Paper Towels, lol.  I couldn't pass up the sale combination this past weekend.  If you need tips or have questions, post in comments below.

Working on my website too...coming soon!

Free Vacation Coming

Happy March,

Today, I decided to plan ahead and book my yearly summer family vacation. We are headed to Orlando, FL again (its been 8 years) and I want to visit Universal Studios.  I decided to a challenge myself and keep the trip costs under $500 for a family of three for seven days.  So far, I have 5 days booked for free. I redeemed a free vacation package that covered 4 days and three nights at the Radisson Resort Orlando and with Expedia.com, a coupon covers our first night stay (out of pocket cost $6.00 after coupon).  I still need a two day stay, just haven't seen the right price yet.  I booked the round trip flight on Frontier and paid $212.00 for 3 tickets. Not bad. I suggest checking Bookvip.com out for affordable vacations. Thanks to them I will received my free Radisson Resort stay, otherwise I would be paying $137.00 a night, last time I checked. This will be an ongoing post. What are your summer plans for trips? Do you know any vacation tips?

Credit Repair Tip Feburay 9, 2017

When it come to Credit, if you are like most people, you have been hearing about the importance of a good credit report/score, since you were in high school. One of the best things that you can do for yourself is to keep track of everything that has to do with your credit.

The better your credit is, the better the chance you will have to get good rates on loans, credit cards etc... There are several steps that you should take in order to go through the process of building a good credit report.

As long as you pay attention to all of your accounts, as well as all of your expenses, it should be easy for you to build a good credit report/score. Make certain that you pay all of your bills right away when they are due. Even, if you cannot pay your balance, you at least need to pay the minimum. This shows creditors that you are a financially responsible. Late and missed payments will reflect negatively on your credit report. It will leave you with a undesirable credit score.

Remember that credit is a privilege, not a right. You should always do your best to take care of the credit that you are given.

For affordable assistance, with your credit repair, reach out to A&A Credit Consultants. They are available Monday through Saturday. Mention promo code, CTFW to receive $25 off your package. Send inquiries email to: infoataacc@gmail.com.

CVS Curbside Express...Had to do it Again

Well, I am truly an advocate for everything that comes down to an awesome deal.  Luckily, I have a best friend who allowed me to order Laundry Detergent for us both, from CVS Curbside Express. Last week, CVS had all Purex Detergent, Fabric Softener and dryer sheets on sale for $1.99 each. My order consisted of 4 bottles of Purex Detergent and 4 bottles of Purex Fabric Softener.  Total was $7.10 including tax and $10 Curbside Express Promo.  Without the sale price each item would have been $6.29 at or $51.50.  I saved $44.40 with this deal!

Additionally, on SavingStar.com there is an offer available of $4.00 back on a $15 purchase of purex products. This offer will make my total go down to $3.10!!!

Total was $7.10 for these products

My 1st CVS Curbside Express Experience

Hello Everyone,

Sorry for the delay, in posting, but you know I have been couponing, up a storm.  I have to tell you about a wonderful service that CVS has.  It's called CVS Curbside Express.  You can do all of your shopping online, get a text/call/email when you order is ready for pickup, drive to the store and pick it up, without ever leaving your car.  Best part about this, is the $10 off a $15 dollar purchase promo. I decided to give it a try, My order consisted of 2 Scott Bathroom tissue 12-pack white ($13.98) and 1 box of Lucky Charms Cereal($1.99). Items Totaled $15.97 plus tax of $1.12 minus Curbside Pickup Promo $10.00, making my total $7.09.  Not bad considering, 1 Scott Bathroom tissue 12-pack at original store price is $11.49 and 1 box of Lucky Charms Cereal at original store price is $4.49. Additionally, I submitted a receipt for a $2.00 credit(buy 2 Scott bathroom tissue) through Checkout51 app.

So, I had a choice, pay full price including tax of $29.22 or pay $7.09 at sale price plus combine with Curbside Promo.

Total for above products $7.09
