My family is not a big football family.  Personally I am more of a College Football person (Geaux Tigers!).  I can’t recall the last time we watched the Super Bowl, not even the commercials.  But I know football is HUGE for so many of you.  And a bunch of you will probably have people over for the big day.

I am giving away one $50 Walmart gift cards to two lucky readers.  While the winners may not get the card in time to save on their party supplies, I am sure it will put to good use.

What do you need to do to enter this giveaway?

1) Leave me a comment sharing who is your favorite football team and who you’ll be rooting for next Sunday.

For three additional entries you can:

2) Become a new RSS Feed or email subscriber to this blog.

3) Become a Facebook fan of this blog.

4) Follow me on Twitter.

This way you can earn up to four entries. Just please remember to come back and leave me a separate comment for each additional action you have taken (leave comment, share on Twitter, share on Facebook, etc).

If you are reading this entry via email updates or via RSS reader please CLICK HERE to visit my blog to enter. Emailing me is not a valid entry for this giveaway. This giveaway is open to residents of the United States only. Please enter only if you are 18 years or older.  This giveaway ends on 2/3/2010 at 5PM CST.  At that time I will close the giveaway and select two winners randomly.

Are you looking forward to the big game?  Who are you rooting for this year?  Since I lived in Louisiana for many years I feel I must back up the Saints.  I hope that doesn’t offend my friend Bargain Briana who is a HUGE Colts Fan.  Anyways, if you are thinking of throwing a Super Bowl Party there are some deals you can take advantage off to stretch your hard earned $$. You can get the following spread for under $44 at Walmart:

One package of Oscar Mayer Meat Hot Dogs (8 ct.)
One package of Johnsonville® Bratwursts (6 ct.)
Two packages of Great Value™ Hot Dog Buns
Two bags of T.G.I. Friday’s™ Frozen Appetizers

There are a couple of Walgreens deals that I want to share on a separate thread because they are highly YMMV.  What does YMMV mean?  Your Mileage May Vary means that some stores may let you do the deal and some others may not.  However, the deal is perfectly legit.  So here are the deals:

Accu-Chek Aviv Blood Glucose Monitor $14.99, earn a $5.00 RR when you buy one
Use $10/1 coupon from 11/8 SS insert
Use $5/1 Walgreens Store coupon from Diabetes and You Magazine (EXPIRES 1/31)
Submit for $14.99 Mail-in Rebate
FREE plus earn $14.99 rebate and $5.00 RR
According to Natasha from Saving a Bundle, she has been able to get the full mail in rebate even after using a coupon. Asking for a rebate receipt is another way to get the mail in rebate even after using a coupon.

Theraflu Sugar-Free Nighttime Cold & Cough 6-pack, Earn a $5 RR when you buy two
Buy two Theraflu Sugar-Free Nighttime Cold & Cough 6-pack $5.49 each
Use two $2/1 Theraflu printable coupons on Coupons.com, Smartsource andRed Plum  PLUS
Use $2/1 Walgreens Store coupon from Diabetes and You Magazinet (EXPIRES 1/31)
Pay $2.98 and earn a $5 RR  Thanks Time to Save Workshops!

Will you be checking out these deals?  Make sure to come back and share how you did.

You may know that I have a little 4 month old baby girl, the youngest of three.    Even though I have been able to re-use a lot of gear from my two older boys with her we have had to replace a couple of big ticket items.  First, we replaced her infant car seat for safety reasons.  Now I find myself in the need to replace her stroller.

As you can imagine I love a great bargain but I have not been lucky to find a clearance stroller.  Now I find myself out of time to keep looking for one as I am getting ready to take her to Nashville next Thursday to attend Blissdom with me.  I was very happy to hear from Penny Pinching Parent that starting  on 1/29 and through 2/20, Babies R Us has an on going Trade In event.  You can trade in an old baby gear item from the following catergories: car seat, stroller, travel system, high chair, play yard, toddler bed, bassinet or crib and get 25% off a new item from a participating brand in one of those same categories. Participating brands include Babi Italia, Baby Cache, Baby Trend, Bergamo, Bertini, Britax, Carter’s, Chicco, Coutours by Kolcraft, Cosco, Delta, Eddie Bauer, Graco, Jeep, Little Tikes, Safety 1st and Step 2.

So, I am going to take the old baby infant my oldest two used and get 25% off a new stroller for her. Plus I also plan on using the $5 eGift card I got this week from them.  Here are also some deals gathered by the Thrifty Couple that I will checking out:

Snikiddy Snacks 2/$4
Use $1/1 printable coupon
Pay $1 each after coupon

First Juice 32oz 2/$6
Use $1/1 printable coupon
Pay $2 each after coupon

So, I am thinking of getting a Chicco stroller to match her car seat.  Anybody wants to chime in with words about this brand or maybe I should consider another brand.  I am looking for a lightweight stroller.

Just wanted to give you a heads up before I head out the door for some grocery shopping.  Tomorrow 1/31 Meijer starts a sale and instant discount promotion on Kraft cheese.  Tomorrow is also the last day of the Kraft cheese catalina promotion that has been going on.  Here’s how you can get free cheese:

Kraft Shredded Cheese, Cubes, Crumbles, Sticks or Chunks, 6-8 oz all varieties 3/$5 (buy six)
Less $1 instant discount at checkout when you buy three (will deduct $2)
Less three $1/2 Kraft cheese coupons from 1/24 SS insert or $1/2 Kraft cheese printable coupon
Pay $5 plus tax out of pocket and earn back a $5 catalina back.

Please remember that this starts tomorrow 1/31 and since the catalina promo ends tomorrow for this to be free you have to do it tomorrow.  Also, make sure to check your local sales circular as sales periods vary by area.  Check out Macomb Money Savers for her rest of coupon match ups for Meijer next week.  The Philly cream cheese is better than free and you can freeze it!

Calling all chocoholics!  This deal is for you!  Starting tomorrow 1/31 Kmart is offering a free $10 Kmart Gift Card when you buy four bags of Hershey’s Pieces.  They are also on sale 2/$5.  So, basically you can get the chocolate for free after mail in gift card offer but you can turn it into a moneymaker like this:

Buy four bags of Hershey’s Pieces 2/$5
Use four $1/1 Hershey’s Pieces chocolate coupons from 1/31 SS insert
Pay $6 plus tax out of pocket
Submit for mail in $10 gift card offer and come out ahead $4

The mail in form prints at checkout and usually at the bottom of your receipt.  The gift card is good towards the use of more Hershey’s products but for all we know it could just be a generic $10 Kmart Gift Card.  Plus don’t forget that if you mail in a wrapper you can get another one free.

Thanks Saving in MO!

Redken is offering a free sample of their new Style Connection Line.  Jump on this one quick because these Rdeken sample usually go quick.

Thanks Mojo Savings!

Happy Savings!
