Saving My Sanity had this to say: I had some Target gift cards burning a hole in my purse. I earned them from previous razor and cereal deals and I like to think of them as Target’s equivalent to ExtraCareBucks!
Target’s ad this week yielded great potential for freebies and cheapies for the Penny Experiment. I was able to get a few of the items I was looking for but want to try another store tomorrow to see if I can get some of the FREE toothpaste and Tums

Mavin Of Savin’ had this to say: This is my local food pantry — I will have more pictures next week. IT WAS POURING out and everyone was fleeing so I could not get many shots. They were VERY happy to get all the food and I am actually attending their monthly meeting tonight to talk about coupon training for the volunteers and the patrons.

Jenny Ward had this to say: The food bank asked where the food came from and I explained I was a couponer and that it was all from me. He was amazed and what I could do with so little cash. I told the Director, who helped us, about Penny Experiment and he wrote it on the receipt because he wanted to check it out.

This Frugal Life had this to say: Today I stopped off at Vons to take advantage of that sweet Kellogg’s catalina promotion that ends today. I lucked out and found a blinkie machine with 70ยข/1 Kellogg’s Cereal coupons, however it was being rampaged by a little girl who was taking coupons from it like it was dispensing free candy. She was there for what seemed like forever. I laugh about it now, but I have to admit, I thought for sure she was taking them all and I was having a mini coupon conniption while I waited for her to leave. Sometimes I can be such a spaz!

Saving My Sanity had this to say: I didn’t post anything earlier about Harris Teeter Super Doubles (double any coupon – more than 20- at face value of $1.98 or greater) because the nearest coupon friendly HT to me is about 25mins away. I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it there, but I knew if the opportunity arose I would try. I was hoping I could get some great deals for the Penny Experiment I have been blogging about.
