It's often hard for me to eat out because I keep thinking "I could have cooked all this for $XXX" But Olive Garden often beckons me with their bread sticks! YUM.
HERE is a $5 off 2 entrees printable coupon. HURRY because quantities are limited. It does not expire until Jan 23, 2011. It can be redeemed for $2.50 off a single entree.

Free Spreedsheet for Couponing
Here is how to get a Moola Saving Mom Coupon Helper Spreadsheet:
1. "LIKE" us on
2. Come back here to Moola Saving Mom and email us (moolasavingmom@yahoo.com)! Be sure to give us your Face Book Name!
3. As soon as humanly possible we will reply with an attachment of the spreadsheet and directions on using it. It can be used at Lowes Foods or Harris Teeter. Shortly in the future there will be another give away for drug store spreadsheets.
WHY do you NEED this spreadsheet?
1. It is impossible to coupon shop as effectively as possible if you are standing in the aisle trying to calculate a final price and savings. It is MUCH better to do it at home and have a list when you go into the store.
2. This list does doubles, super doubles and triples for you! It gives you a final price and you can actually SEE the amount you will be spending. Is it perfect? NO- but it is a GREAT head start!

Got a Catalina today that I had not seen, or had forgotten about!
This was at Harris Teeter-
Buy 3 BC Boxed Potatoes and get $1 coupon
Buy 4 and get $1.50
Buy 5+ and get $2
I already used mine but there was a BC Potatoes E-vic coupon for 50 cents....
There are .50/2 coupons in the Smart Sources dated 11/14, 11/21 and 12/5
Buy 5, use two of the coupons, pay $3 get $2 back. That is $1 for 5 boxes. This should be able to roll- there is no limit and it expires 12/26
A GREAT thing to bring to a food pantry or make a quick and easy dinner!

Why it's great to sign up...
for LOTS of things.
In my inbox yesterday there were 2 wonderful emails!
The first email was from CVS. It was a survey invitation. For completeing the 5 minute survey about my spice buying habits (LOL) I got a $5 ECB reward! YAY.
The second email was from Build-a-Bear (my 7 year olds obsession). It was a $10 gift certificiate. No minimum purchase, no strings! YEP. That made her day.
This is why I sign up for everything and anything online from REPUTABLE companies. You never know what their next marketing campaign might include for you!

Bud Light Rebate $6
By happenstance today in Lowes Foods I found a Bud Light Golden Wheat Offer for $6 rebate with a $10 purchase of pasta, sauces, breads and spices. From 9/1-12/31.
This is why I keep ALL my receipts! I had purchased $12 worth of Ragu sauce at Walgreens back on 12/5 (after coupons and everything I only spent $10.05 for 8 Ragus, 2 Hershey bars, 4 Barilla pastas, Helmmans mayo and floss ! I;m sure i got a ton of RR back too!
So, I am sending my rebate off to get my $6 check! Cha-Ching!
