Kroger DOES accept legitimate internet coupons.<br /><br />Kroger also particpates in programs that offer electronic coupons that automatically deduct at the cash register when you use your Kroger Plus Card.

Especially when it comes to food items with a limited shelf life.<br /><br />Sometimes there's a fine line and sometimes it's pretty obvious. And it differs for everyone based on their needs.<br /><br />You can add another column to your <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/2009/10/tip-of-day-october-1st.html">Price List </a>and write down how much of that item your family uses in a month and go from there.<br /><br />You may think buying 25 boxes of mac & cheese is ridiculous if your family only uses one box a month. If my kids eat it 4 or more times a week, that'll only last 6 weeks.

Sales usually run through 90 day cycles--especially at grocery stores. <br /><br />When you come across as great deal on something that your family uses regularly, buy enough to get you to the next great deal. <br /><br />You may feel like you're spending too much money at that moment, but when you don't have to buy the item at all for the next 3 months, you'll notice a difference.Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-90883432957107993002009-10-12T06:00:00.000-07:002009-10-12T06:00:09.407-07:00Tip of the Day: October 12thYou've seen me talk about "Stockpiling" on here, but you may be wondering what that really is.<br /><br />Stockpiling is buying multiple items at their lowest prices so that you never have to pay full price.

Those who have access to a Military Commissary can use coupons up to 6 months expired. <br /><br />I first heard about this about a year ago, but the program I read about required a large amount of sorting, special packaging, and fees paid by the donor. I wanted to help, but I couldn't commit that time and money.<br /><br />Luckily, I have since discovered <a href="http://thehappyhousewife.com/thank-you/">Coupons for Troops,</a> sponsored and created by <a href="http://thehappyhousewife.com/">The Happy Housewife</a>. Her program is so simple. If you'd like to participate, just send her an e-mail. She assigns you to a family. Then you send your expired coupons to that family. THAT'S IT! You don't even have to pay international shipping--it's a domestic rate for service stations!<br /><br />Read more details <a href="http://thehappyhousewife.com/thank-you/">HERE</a> and stop throwing away your expired coupons today!Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-60354007763480966512009-10-09T09:28:00.000-07:002009-10-10T11:54:29.283-07:00My Style<div style="text-align: center;">This is my style:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLcAsvWjne4PnHG3V8OqQ0cxuAf8sfzByDqxB4f5OEBUxv4zptFpsbmtzl57jt2a8G38TINMAYlogmAg6yFNOLd507GaZG4b8eIm9VJ0NxWyUiVoS7emUlq9OLdi5zAOSjPU3_mfInyJG1/s1600-h/Lady+Gaga+frog.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLcAsvWjne4PnHG3V8OqQ0cxuAf8sfzByDqxB4f5OEBUxv4zptFpsbmtzl57jt2a8G38TINMAYlogmAg6yFNOLd507GaZG4b8eIm9VJ0NxWyUiVoS7emUlq9OLdi5zAOSjPU3_mfInyJG1/s320/Lady+Gaga+frog.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391044268502062034" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Ha!

Welcome to Mommy Managing Interactive!<br /><br />Along the way, I'm going to show you some of my Frugal Fashion Finds!<br /><br />I'm really excited (and <span style="font-style: italic;">slightly terrified</span>) to find out what you guys think!<br /><br />I have a closet full of <span style="font-style: italic;">stuff</span>.<br /><br />I want to have a closet full of stuff <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">I LOVE</span>.<br /><br />This is what I'm starting with:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFSUgN_0BB5_yZu0k2i-MfLxjVsmJM6hnr1UGpOuS1OrSes_S_RAfaYOeMABMIhxAHNml22KALjLu98_J_Bc0_DJugm9B9hPzhOMoSNY7xpBcQEL4nb2NSugaKw-0SwVIGFQol3fIYieIk/s1600-h/DSCF9309.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFSUgN_0BB5_yZu0k2i-MfLxjVsmJM6hnr1UGpOuS1OrSes_S_RAfaYOeMABMIhxAHNml22KALjLu98_J_Bc0_DJugm9B9hPzhOMoSNY7xpBcQEL4nb2NSugaKw-0SwVIGFQol3fIYieIk/s320/DSCF9309.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390629507352270994" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKBqNQI7Wru_jRWYCOBd0Q1M92dl_p0lzTSR5ev5uIVZgdwx_yLnU_6NvnIFrPFT5rvrYMQh7_CWlXXf6i5sWajVcyJ6Q0r8lOvEwiEQ7o6JVOd2cEBuFitQ-JoUrAYhKeZLhegOA_Obia/s1600-h/DSCF9310.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKBqNQI7Wru_jRWYCOBd0Q1M92dl_p0lzTSR5ev5uIVZgdwx_yLnU_6NvnIFrPFT5rvrYMQh7_CWlXXf6i5sWajVcyJ6Q0r8lOvEwiEQ7o6JVOd2cEBuFitQ-JoUrAYhKeZLhegOA_Obia/s320/DSCF9310.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390637485086614738" border="0" /></a> <script src="http://www.anntaylor.com/js/s_code.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script><div class="wrapper-l2"> </div>Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-25480899895905435042009-10-09T06:00:00.000-07:002009-10-09T06:00:04.749-07:00Tip of the Day: October 9thYou can print most Internet coupons two times! <br /><br />If it is a "Bricks" coupon, you will see the word "bricks" in the web address. After you print the first one, click the "back" button three times or follow the same prompts that got you to the first one.<br /><br />If it is a <a href="http://print.coupons.com/couponweb/index.aspx?pid=13903&nid=10&zid=xh20&cid=0&bid=1030970001">coupons.com</a> coupon, you can usually hit the "back" button three times after printing or go back to <a href="http://print.coupons.com/couponweb/index.aspx?pid=13903&nid=10&zid=xh20&cid=0&bid=1030970001">coupons.com</a> and repeat your steps. <a href="http://print.coupons.com/couponweb/index.aspx?pid=13903&nid=10&zid=xh20&cid=0&bid=1030970001">Coupons.com</a> will hide the ones you have already printed on the last page of choices.<br /><br />For other sites like Smartsource.com, Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, etc., I always have to go back to their homepage and repeat the same process.<br /><br />When a coupon is offered by e-centives (look at the web address), you may only be able to print it once. I always try a second time, just in case.<br /><br />Very very super rarely, a coupon will have NO PRINT LIMIT! Hallelujah! <span style="font-style: italic;">{Print, print, print, I need ink, print, print, more paper, print, print....}</span>Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-34194576846041015052009-10-08T08:53:00.000-07:002009-10-15T13:07:34.111-07:00Coupon Preview for October 11thAll of the previews are showing three inserts this weekend, but I have a sneaky suspicion we may only get two.

And we are highly carnivorous! (Okay, I know that we are actually omnivorous, but we like our meat!)<br /><br />I am not a blogger that will suggest a "Meat-Free Night" or using only dark meat chicken all the time. Uh-uh. We don't eat without meat, and I love steak and pork chops!<br /><br />Meat is a commodity item and the price fluctuates based on location and demand. It is one of the best items to keep up with on your <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/2009/10/tip-of-day-october-1st.html">Price List</a>, though you will rarely have a coupon for it.<br /><br />One trick we use for well-priced high quality ground beef is grinding it ourselves <span style="font-style: italic;">{that's code for I make my Hubs do it}</span>. I can usually find whole roasts on sale cheaper than the pre-ground beef. (We have a grinder because my husband is a deer hunter, so this may not work for you.)<br /><br />I also buy a lot of Split Chicken Breast on the bone. I can usually get them for less than $1 per pound. We <span style="font-style: italic;"></span>de-bone them and store them in freezer bags. Or sometimes I'll boil it first, then de-bone and store. Then I have a quick starter for a night when things get hectic, perfect for <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/2009/04/enchiladas.html">Enchiladas</a> or a <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/2009/04/chicken-broccoli-braid-recipe.html">Chicken Broccoli Braid</a>.<br /><br />Also, you will almost always pay less per pound if you purchase the larger family packs. Just be sure to factor in the price of storage bags to figure out if it really saves you money.<br /><br />However, if you do manage to have a coupon, like the .55 Pilgrim's Pride Printable coupon I often list in my <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/search/label/Coupon%20Matchups">coupon matchups</a>, you may get a better price by buying the smaller pack.Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-3864250040848173222009-10-07T20:45:00.000-07:002009-10-07T20:55:04.128-07:00Brookshire's Pillsbury DealI mentioned in my <a href="http://mommymanaging.blogspot.com/2009/10/brookshires-october-7th-13th.html">Brookshire's matchup</a> earlier today that they had select Pillsbury cinnamon rolls and Grands! biscuits on sale for $1 and that I was *hoping* they would have the same Catalina deal as Kroger...<br /><br />Well, they do have a Catalina deal, but it is slightly different:<br /><br /><em>10/5-11/1<br />Purchase any Pillsbury Refrigerated Baked Goods<br />Includes: Crescents, Cookies, Sweet Rolls, Grands! Biscuits, Grands!

So use different values to make the most of them. If the coupons look different but have the same value, check the 12 digit bar code. If it's the same number, only 1 will triple.Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836880110077006372.post-2408313089373160502009-10-07T10:08:00.000-07:002009-10-07T13:51:34.115-07:00McDade's (October 7th-13th)McDade's doubles coupons up to and including 60 cents.

Only one of each kind of coupon will TRIPLE, all others will be redeemed at face value. According to policy, coupons that say "Do Not Double or Triple" will be redeemed at face value only. Internet coupons up to $1.99 will be accepted.<br /><br />Brookshire's also has a "Priced Right Guarantee", meaning if your item doesn't ring up correctly, you get it FREE (Excludes Dairy, Tobacco, & Alcohol). Don't address this at the cash register.

If you need to fill/refill a prescription anyway, why not get paid to do so? I love having these gift cards on hand to reduce my out-of-pocket expenses, and the prescription is tax-deductible.<br /><br />Brookshire's also honors these competitor offers, and that has bought me many groceries.<br /><br />If you're <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">really</span> lucky, you might come across one for a NEW prescription, but that's a little rare.Mommy Managinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08782325069718647521noreply@blogger.com2
