I always thought you need a fancy phone to do that. I don't have one - so figured I was out those things. I will be taking advantage of the Freebie Friday deals too! I can bless someone else as you do, or maybe use in gift baskets.<br />I guess it shows we are never too old to learn something!! LOL<br />FREE is FREE and can bless someone.<br />Thanks for coming by.Cheryl Kimbleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06485771676254429681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-78199905543953833352016-09-10T15:12:43.105-04:002016-09-10T15:12:43.105-04:00Not crazy...I don't typically shop at Kroger b...Not crazy...I don't typically shop at Kroger but they have a Freebie Friday offer in our area where you can download a coupon to your card and get a free item. It ranges in value from week to week. I think this week's is a package of gum. I download and make a trip by their at least every third week to pick up my free items and any really good sales items at the same time. I don't always use the free product myself but I can gift them to others and do.terricheneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06865436021565986224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-48017209212614216832016-09-09T13:00:09.682-04:002016-09-09T13:00:09.682-04:00I agree - buy what you will use.

I had items left from last season - so I cut down the number of jars this season of certain products.<br /><br />I don't want things to go bad. If store bought stuff seems to be too much - then I pass it on to those who can use it.<br /><br />I can resist shopping any where except the grocery! LOL I love the grocery store.Cheryl Kimbleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06485771676254429681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-67114615773758763722016-09-09T12:57:12.764-04:002016-09-09T12:57:12.764-04:00I have gotten the $10 coupons for Aldi through the...I have gotten the $10 coupons for Aldi through the paper. The $5 ones the store gave me.<br /><br />I kind of agree and kind of disagree. If I spend some money to save $10, to me it is like money in the bank. I know I will use the products. I also know that groceries will continue to go up in price. So I see it as a win-win for me.<br /><br />I use the $10/$10 Kohls only to get items for my gift basket for the teen girls who are so hard to buy for. I generally walk out of there spending out of pocket less than a $1.<br />I don't use those all the time - I do pass them on tho others.Cheryl Kimbleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06485771676254429681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-7989735276606448562016-09-09T10:11:59.698-04:002016-09-09T10:11:59.698-04:00If I have the power to resist impulse buying in ad...If I have the power to resist impulse buying in addition to what I intend to get, then using those coupons is great! But sometimes I don't have that will power and I know I just have to stay away from the store. In those cases I pass the coupons on to someone who will use them.<br /><br />I have changed a little on my restocking, now I only get those items I know I will use, that only comes from experience of running a stockpile for a few years running. What is left over from year to year is something taken off the list for the next year.EllenMBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16862195995276660737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-10763427439860933522016-09-09T09:53:45.255-04:002016-09-09T09:53:45.255-04:00where do you get the Aldi coupons?

I have never seen them. :( Sadness abounds...<br />The only thing I can say about $10 off coupons that I DON'T use is if I don't NEED anything then I don't want to use the coupons just to get $10 off, you know? Not going to spend money to save less money.barbaradougherty126https://www.blogger.com/profile/08836028500126454110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-91340951091939022642016-09-09T08:46:07.036-04:002016-09-09T08:46:07.036-04:00Hi Cheryl.

They aren't any longer but now they are having 1/2 price sales on good products on weekend. Last week was string cheese for $.99, the week before it was whole chickens for about .50 cents a pound. This week is hamburger for .99 and brownie mix for .45. <br />Aldi is a huge budget helper. <br /><br />I know you will use your coupons in the best way 😄<br /><br />Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898829593961271218noreply@blogger.com
