Get Deals Like This Weekly! Save Oodles of Cash!

You really can get deals like this weekly. I do it all the time. All you need to do is roll up your sleeves and do a little front work. The deals in the above picture I just got today. I got MORE deals than this, but I didn't want to keep putting little price tag flags on stuff. :)

Most of these deal were gotten through ad match at Walmart. You can find information on doing Walmart Ad Match here:

Remember the software I said you could get for free the other day? That is the red Panda box in back.

And then I got a covered glass Pyrex bowl at Goodwill for .79!

Some people write me and say "I can't find any of those deals where I live". It may be true that it is hard to find deals where you live, but learning to be frugal means finding the deals where you are. I have lived in two different states and different states will have different "rules to the game". However, taking the time to figure out what those rules are and then playing by those rules will give you the edge you need to start saving.

Christmas clearance is true clearance now.

These stockings were .09 each. I bought quite a few. Think about all the different uses you could have for this next year. A party? For co-workers? For your child's class? For Sunday School?

Chocolate sucker .25

Little gift bag .24

Chocolate Peanut Clusters 1.99

So, if you learn to think frugally, you can find deals like this weekly and save Oodles of cash all year long!

My After Christmas Deals

I expect I will get more than this for after Christmas Deals, but here's a start! The food goes fast. I got some marginally healthy stuff in here too!

Buying Off Season: Three Bags of Candy for .25 each

One of the best ways to save money is to buy off season. This candy was marked down last week but I didn't buy any. I took my chances and waited to see if I could get some at rock bottom prices. Today I was at the store and BINGO! I got:

1 bag jelly pumpkins 1 lb. 2 oz for .25

1 bag peanut butter kisses 13 oz. for .25

1 bag 18 oz Autumn Mix for .25

They were just marking them down when I was there and I could have bought a whole lot more but it's not really a good idea to have that much candy laying around. :)

I buy most things off season this way, like decorations, wrapping paper etc. Autumn after autumn, Christmas after Christmas etc. The main thing is getting used to switching things around. After Halloween is probably the best candy buying time. The day after is probably best for chocolate etc. and you can save it in your freezer and take it out when you want some (sorry for not doing a blog on this earlier when the candy sales were really going on). This year, I didn't buy any but what you see above and it's 11/13, so you can get some later on but this will likely be the end of autumn candy sales.
