May 2016 Frugal Chatter - ALL WELCOME

I don't know what it is but I haven't seen any coupons lately. I've kept my eye on the coupon board each week and it's been bare for a long time. Shelves have been cleared on Aveeno in at least three stores that I've checked. The only coupons I get nowadays are the ones that I get in the local paper.

I wasn't able to print any of the $5 Aveeno coupons last week because the website wouldn't accept my password, even when I reset it. I logged into my health essentials account yesterday and the $5 Aveeno coupon isn't there. Is it still available somewhere?

@Granger: I think our $300 included both the groom and best man suits and included everything: shoes, tie, jacket, pants, socks, etc.

I think I missed something somewhere...lol. If you got all that for $300 for keeps...way better deal. Still happy with our Moore's deal even if it was an expensive one. (AND IT WILL LAST FOREVER, FOR-EV-ER!!!) lol.

Everytime I go to use a coupon there is some stipulation that makes it less desirable of late. e.g. Mott's Fruitsations, $1 off 12-packs...I can only ever find 4-packs. le sigh.

I think people were printing tons of them so it was pulled a few days after. Shelves are all cleared in my area. Many people have them for trade though. I don't remember using a password, I thought it was a direct link?

@Granger : It was a rental. The bonus is....no clutter! Your DH has an excuse though. He uses one regularly.

I agree with the extra conditions on coupons. I think around 2010, they started making the wording so specific that cashiers were starting to scrutinize every word. The photo of only one product and the word "any" would make many of them call a manager like they were hitting a panic button.

Dh and I tried a new babysitter this evening because our 2 regular sitters weren't available. So far I think she did a good job. She texted a few questions and updates. All 3 kids were asleep when we got home. She picked up the toys in the living room and washed up the supper dishes. Dh is driving her home, she lives out of town.

I did more baby shopping for my brother this morning. We are having a lot of rain and there is a nasty wind with it, so not nice being out with little ones. It was nice to stay and visit. It will take 2wks to find out if this medication is helping SIL.

That makes sense. An arena in our hockey district was re-rebuilt last year and they used other arenas. Once their home game was at our arena so it was great for us! ok then you better start saving for hockey lol
