John Frieda - saved $36!

I've been waiting and waiting for these sets of John Frieda Full repair items to go on clearance. They have been hanging out at 30% off for weeks! The $2/1 off ANY John Frieda product Q's I've been holding onto expired on 7/31, so I missed out on using those. On Thursday, I squeeled like a little girl when I found these FINALLY marked down to 75% off!! They are originally $11.99 for the set (if each item is bought separately, they would sell for $14.98 as a set The shampoo & conditioner sell for $5.99 and the others sell for $8.99). Anyways, they were marked down to $2.98! I bought three with the shampoo and frizz control serum, and one of the conditioner and deep conditioning something! I spent $11.92, and saved a whopping $36.04!!! If I bought each item separate, I would of spent $59.92! 


In my mailbox today, August 7th:
In the picture above is a booklet I received today titled "The art of the Summer Striptease". Not sure how I got this, but it has AMAZING coupons inside!!! Here is what I received:

  • $4.00/1 Schick Quattro for Women refillable or disposable razor

They all expire 9/30. Looks like I'll be doing some price checks while at Target this weekend!

Feeling Lucky?

If you are feeling lucky, head on over to the facebook page of Denizen to win a free pair of jeans!!! You also have a chance at a $3 MIR or a $5 giftcard to Target (which is what I won)! I also hear rumors of a $15 giftcard. Good luck!

What's in your mailbox today? 8/3

So, I'll be the first to admit. I LOVE checking the mail box! Aside from the numerous "you owe us this amount" JUNK mail that I get, I'm usually getting some sort of sample or coupons! Before I started couponing, I got into samples. I just adopted my puppy and I wanted to see what food & treats were best for him. I realized after emailing companies and searching their sites, they are MORE than happy to send you a sample to try! After getting stuff for my new pup, I decided to try and get samples for myself. I got hair products, full size makeup products and even a bra (weird). I was hooked. PLUS samples almost always some with a coupon! Double score.

Looking to score a few samples of yourself? Try a few of your favorite companies facebook pages. I also follow a few free sample blogs. Also, I try an email a few companies a day (I've been slacking to only doing it once a week, I need to get back into it). Go to their company website and find the 'contact us' page. Whether you had a good experience or bad experience with their product, let them know!!! Just about every company I've emailed, I've gotten TONS of coupons and products! My favorite? Iams! I got free coupons for BAGS of dog & cat food. 


Here is what I received in the mail today: Wednesday 08/03
A Thank You! kit from Friskies from their facebook page, which included a full size bag of treats, 2 (only one is pictured) treat balls that my kitten LOVES already. (She was busy with the other one, and would not let it go!). A coupon for $.50 of 6 cans/pouches of food (which will double at Kroger!) and a coupon for a free can of food with purchase of more treats! My Bella is so happy. I also got a sample of Shout Wipe & Go. I love keeping these in my purse & car, just in case. Plus a coupon for $.55 off shout wipes, which Target sells in the travel aisle for $1! 


Try emailing Turkey Hill today, I got a great response in coupons from them. We go through their iced tea faster than I can think! Not to mention their ice cream is to die for! 


Enjoy your day. :)
