http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/community/feeds/defaultThe latest discussions from the Bargain Blessings Community - powered by BlogFrog(c) 2009, BlogFrog, INC. All rights reserved.5 I have searched 3 different Targets near me and none of them have those One-A-Day vitamins in the travel section (10count). Does anyone know of a Target that DOES have these? Please let me know where. Thank you http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/140914/target-one-a-day-vitamins.htmlFri, 30 Dec 2011 16:38:36 GMT Love, love, love this blog! I am a newbie and a Christian. With all of the polluted air and foods we keep inhaling and digesting, I want to offer information and insight to a healthier way of living that lines up with the Word of God. Thanks for providing me inspiration and information. I would love to send information your way as I find out deals and offers in re to living organically and naturally. God bless you! Organics Sense! http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/129621/a-newbie-blogger-for-organic-and-natural-living.htmlMon, 10 Oct 2011 14:37:19 GMT I've been couponing for about a 1.5 years now w/ no real spectacular savings. Seems I've spent most of my time just trying to find an organizational plan that I like and of course clipping and then throwing away what I've clipped when I can't get to it in time. With big-hearted intentions of donating I've really over-whelmed myself. And until today I had not found a website that applied to my location. So I sat down with my computer this evening hoping to read through another site and see if I could learn a bit more about how to create my lists and actually see the magic happen at the register. I was actually looking for a different site when I ran across this one and all I can say is WOW! So far this is not only very informative, it's such an easy read. Thank you for this site and I can't wait to start putting all of this into action. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/127959/hi---just-call-me-noob.htmlThu, 29 Sep 2011 05:34:06 GMT I've been couponing for awhile and checking different blogs, advice and ideas. I print coupons often from the web and many have a printing limit. My question is: Can't I just photocopy coupons for as many as I need? I know I've heard that some people use several computers so that they can print extras. Isn't it easier just to photocopy? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/127694/copies-of-coupons.htmlTue, 27 Sep 2011 22:14:40 GMT I'm new to the Denver area and didn't know where a good place would be to donate any extra items I get with couponing. Was thinking of a pregnancy center or homeless shelter or places like that, but I'm not sure where there's any close. I'm in the Littleton area. Thanks, Lindsay http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/124516/donating-toiletry-items.htmlTue, 06 Sep 2011 02:44:32 GMT Have you heard of Daily Referral? It's a GREAT new site that helps consumers save over 50-90% on items from stores such as Target, Walmart, Sears, KMart,JCpenny, etc... Its also FREE to signup. Go to http://www.DailyReferralsignup.com/ to signup. Enjoy. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/124298/get-50-90-off-coupons-for-target,-cvs--walmart-here.htmlSat, 03 Sep 2011 16:37:02 GMT I found a super deal on men's jeans at Target - in Parker, they have many jeans marked at 70% off - making them between $6-10 dollars. There is also a Target coupon for $3 off jeans - so some jeans are only $3! I was only able to print 2 coupons for jeans, though. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/118632/mens-jeans-at-target.htmlSun, 31 Jul 2011 16:31:21 GMT King soopers here in Littleton CO. said that the no longer will take more than 3 coupons on a product...for example if you are going to buy 10 for 10 on toothpaste and have 10 coupons they will only take 3...making getting them for free not an option any more...it this new? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/116594/king-sooperchange-with-coupons.htmlTue, 19 Jul 2011 19:56:07 GMTHi, fellow bargain hunters! My husband and I want to buy a Sleep Number bed, but are looking for a Friends and Family coupon. We were told by the sales person that these coupons went out to Sleep Number owners not too long ago. You get a $50 gift card for referring us. Thanks and let me know if anyone can help! - Reneehttp://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/109218/sleep-number-coupon-please.htmlSun, 05 Jun 2011 22:54:52 GMT I am just starting to think about coupons. I have used them in the past but never to actually make a difference that is visible. So I just bought the store brands and figured I was doing enough, but seeing that its possible to spend less using coupons seems like an amazing deal. I am just not sure how to match coupons to stores and or making all the store coupon rules to make it work it feels kinda over whelming. Can any one help walk me through understanding all the different aspects? I am really lost. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/101431/need-help.htmlThu, 21 Apr 2011 03:17:17 GMT Hey All, I'm new to the blog, but have been a couponer for almost a year now. I've recently started a project called "HANDLE WITH CARE: PACKAGES WITH A PURPOSE" to send care-packages to soldiers over seas and local shelters in my area. It was inspired by my husband, an Army Veteran, and from my own desire to give back with all this free things I get! Here is where I need your support! As a couponer, I know how great it is to snag freebies, and how sometimes...we have more than we know what to do with. So...I invite you all, to dig into your stockpiles and join me in sending care packages to those in need. I ask that you join my group on facebook HANDLE WITH CARE:Packages with a purpose, and there you will find wish list requirements and extra information on how to get started. Please feel free to reply back to this post also, if you have more questions! I look forward to get our coupon community united and giving back! Its a small gesture to help boost the morale of those who need it! Thanks in advanced! -Jessica http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/97156/being-charitable-with-freebies.htmlSun, 03 Apr 2011 16:45:48 GMTI got an iPad for Christmas and while I love it, I haven't been able to check out all the great deals on BargainBlessings. So far, everything works except the ''Stores'' drop down menu. Is anyone else having trouble?http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/78387/stores-drop-down-menu.htmlThu, 03 Feb 2011 04:14:10 GMT Hi, My blog, HappySimpleLiving.com is getting ready to host our Second Annual January Money Diet when several hundred of us will take a 31-day break from nonessential spending to start the new year strong!

I look forward to them every Friday, and I didn't get one again this week. I know they had a breach on their servers with email addresses, so maybe that's why? If anyone received the Sneak Peek this week, can you send me the link? Pretty please? :) http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/69489/weekly-walgreens-sneak-peek-emails.htmlSat, 11 Dec 2010 12:58:02 GMT New to coupons! Having a LOT of fun. However my husband is awesome with the budget AND I am just wondering if people find they do better using cash or debit? I never used to keep money or even spare change (always gave to my kids savings jars)..... in my wallet. Well when I started having 5 receipts for .07 cents. I looked at change differently. Does anyone have any good systems? Sometimes when I use debit I feel like my head spins and I'm not sure til I get home on some of the deals I got. Any tips would be great! Thanks! http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/66590/question.htmlTue, 23 Nov 2010 20:48:04 GMT Are you planning to head out to the stores this year on Black Friday? Have you ever gone out in the past? How was the experience? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/64722/will-you-be-shopping-this-black-friday.htmlSun, 14 Nov 2010 20:36:26 GMT Hi, I'm new to this coupon shopping and I have discovered that there is a learning curve associated with this shopping technique. I'm determined to learn and am doing my best but I'd love to just shadow someone who has done this for awhile. If you or anyone you know would be agreeable for me to just tag along one day please let me know. I'm in the Tech Center/Lone Tree area. Thank you! Meghan http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/61217/coupon-buddy.htmlThu, 28 Oct 2010 15:17:53 GMT I just tried to load more eCoupons onto my Shortcuts account and received a message saying "you have reached the maximum number of coupons - please shop & redeem coupons before adding more." This has never happened before, & I always load every eCoupon onto my account when there are new ones, so have they recently made a rule that there are a maximum number allowed? Does anyone know if you can delete some of the loaded ones off your account, so you can add others (rather than buying stuff just to get them off your account, or having to wait until they expire)? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/60113/shortcutscom-ecoupon-limit.htmlThu, 21 Oct 2010 20:35:17 GMT Since I'm new to the area, I was hoping fellow readers could advise me on some great places to take donations to. Websites for non-profits, physical addresses, etc are all appreciated to get me started, plus hopefully it will help a few others find a location as well. I live in the Littleton area, so would love info on places near me, but any donation centers are encouraged, in case it helps others find a place. Can't wait for the Bargain Blessings readers to meet & beat Jennie's challenge! :) http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/60108/donation-locations-for-2010-give-back-challenge.htmlThu, 21 Oct 2010 20:25:21 GMT I'm so bumbed...I drove all the way out to the Albertsons in aurora and they wouldn't double my coupons for the chex mix and other stuff. I didn't realize that they didn't double coupons that say "do not double or triple" even if it starts with a 5. Live and learn I guess. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/59591/albertsons-flop.htmlTue, 19 Oct 2010 16:03:02 GMT Does anyone have any recommendations on brown women's socks that actually last more than a few weeks? I have gone through sooo many and can't find any that last any amount of time! Thanks!!! http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/58584/womens-socks.htmlWed, 13 Oct 2010 22:30:58 GMT I'm very new to couponing and have run out of printer ink! I would like to get some today and I'm hoping someone knows of some good deals out there. I'd also like to save on ink in the long run so if someone knows some deals for future reference, please let me know. Thanks so much!!!! http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/58219/printer-ink.htmlTue, 12 Oct 2010 15:52:47 GMT Okay, I admit it, I over-stocked-up on salad dressing this year. I even gave lots away, but I have more than I'll ever use on salad. Does anyone have any great recipes that use salad dressing they'd like to share? I would love to use it up before it expires early next year. I have just about every flavor, I think ;P http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/53593/i-have-sooooo-much-salad-dressing,-now-what.htmlThu, 16 Sep 2010 19:53:51 GMT Had an interesting trip to Walgreens today - I tried to use a coupon for $1.25 off an item that was on clearance for $1.19. The register beeped, the cashier said she couldn't take it (this was not my only item - I had at least 10 items in the order). I told her that I thought that their new policy was clear about how to handle this issue. She called the manager over and the manager flat out refused to take the coupon or write it down to $1.19. I got my copy of the policy out and showed her and she was not interested. She said "I refuse to change coupon amounts". I said "even if that is what your corporate policy says you should do?". Her response - I've never done it before and I won't do it now!!! What in the world??? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/52730/walgreens-manager-wouldnt-honor-new-coupon-policy.htmlSun, 12 Sep 2010 03:46:36 GMT Hi, I'm new to this. Tried to get a coupon from coolsavings.com and had to fill out a bunch of stuff, and click thru offers for about 10 minutes. Then I went back back 10 minutes later and it wanted me to go thru the whole process again. What am I missing here? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/52659/coolsavings----so-many-clicks.htmlSat, 11 Sep 2010 17:56:17 GMT I have been couponing since May and I now have a pretty good stockpile. It has cost me a bit more money these last few months to get a stockpile, but it was well worth it. We now have a ton of food, beverages, and household products. Other than milk and produce, we could probably live off of what we have for several weeks. But, my problem is knowing when to stop. I see these great deals and I have coupons that will expire if I don't use them, and I so badly want to buy more stuff. But, we just can't do this and save money. Does anyone else have this problem or used to have this problem? If I seriously bring home one more bag of candy or one more Betty Crocker snack, I think my hubby is going to shoot me! :) Not really, but seriously...how do you all know when to stop stockpiling? What do you tell yourself when there is a really good deal on something and you don't need that item? How do you determine what to buy and what not to buy? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/52006/when-to-stop.htmlWed, 08 Sep 2010 04:57:37 GMT I just went to K.S. today to look for some of the coupon books mentioned previously and found one that I don't think I've heard anyone else reference yet. It's called the "better at home" Eat At Home FOR LESS coupon book. I found it in a tall display next to Customer Service at the Ken Caryl/C-470 store in Littleton, CO. It says you can save up to $15 and some of the coupons include: $1 off 1 box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch $1 off 2 Pillsbury Refrigerated Sweet Rolls $1 off 3 any flavor Progresso Soups $1 off any flavor/variety Cascadian Farm product $1 off any 1 Pillsbury Refrigerated Simply product These are just a few of the 15 total coupons and all but one expire on 10/25/10. I also found a "My Allergy Guide" coupon book for Zyrtec & Benadryl at the Pharmacy counter while I was asking about the "Stay Prepared Stay Healthy" coupon book (which they had to go in the back to get). Additionally, I found the K.S. "Optimum Wellness" coupon book for Sept/Oct 2010 in the produce section. Unfortunately, no one at my store knew anything about the Healthy Living coupon book I read about on one of the posts, so I'll have to try again later or somewhere else for that one. I hope this helps! (Sorry for the length!) Melissa http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/52005/new-coupon-book-found-at-king-soopers-9-7-10.htmlWed, 08 Sep 2010 04:19:23 GMT Well, I was so excited to get our Sunday newspaper (as always) and went straight to the coupon section, but there were no SS or RP inserts!!! What a bummer! I also went to the Dollar Tree and nothing! No coupon inserts in any of those papers either! Did anyone else not get the SS or RP inserts? Is there's anyway to get these? I emailed The Denver Post customer service, but haven't heard back from anyone yet. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/51922/no-ss-or-rp-in-sundays-denver-post-(-boo.htmlTue, 07 Sep 2010 22:34:37 GMT Jennie- I can't remember if you had previously asked for website suggestions to be posted in certain place, so I thought I would just put them here. I love the new site and I know it's still working out the kinks, but I did have one suggestion for an improvement (or some may think otherwise): When we click on the "Comment" link of a post and we leave a comment, is there any way to return to that post on the BB main page when we hit the "Back" button, versus being sent back to the top of the BB main page? I saw the "next post" and "previous post" links at the bottom of the "Comments" section, but it might still be nice to just be able to hit "Back" and go to the current post on the main page. Does anyone else agree/disagree? Melissa http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/51904/suggestions-for-relaunched-bb-site.htmlTue, 07 Sep 2010 20:51:41 GMT I grew up going to the doctor very frequently. Every time I had a cough or sniffle that is where I went…it was just how we did things. My husband’s family, on the other hand, is much more conservative when it comes to going to the doctor. They tend to take a much more natural approach. I’ve found that I have settled myself somewhere in between. If I feel that I need to I will certainly make a visit to the doctor, but I’m also very open to more natural remedies too. I was just curious what your thoughts are on this. Does your family make frequent doctor visits, take the more natural route, or fall somewhere in between? PS~ I know this can be a very passionate subject for some, so please just make sure to respect other’s opinions on this thread!

Anyone in the Highlands Ranch area found the Fuel for School, MDA book, or August Safeway coupon book? It's hard for me to pop into all the stores with two kids in tow. If you know which stores have them out, let me know. Much appreciated! http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/45718/finding-coupon-books.htmlMon, 09 Aug 2010 21:17:10 GMT I just wanted to tell everyone that a new grocery store chain called SmartCo Foods is opening up all over Denver. There is a grand opening at 3615 W. Bowles Ave it is in the Littleton/Englewood area. Their sale ads run from Wednesday to Tuesday. Here are some of their deals... boneless beef loin top sirloin steaks $1.78lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts $1.48lb. daisy fresh large eggs 69cents dozen (limit 4) red or green grapes 50cents pound First Street Milk $1.49gal. yellow or white nectarines 50cents pound tilapia fillets $1.98lb. boneless pork loin chops or roasts $1.98lb. honeydew melons 25cents pound red leaf, green leaf, or romaine lettuce 50cents each olathe corn 3 for 99cents in the ad but when I went it was 5 for $1 brown onions 33cents pound on the vine tomatoes 69cents pound avocados 2 for $1 in the ad but when I went it was 3 for $1 http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/45582/smartco-foods.htmlMon, 09 Aug 2010 12:37:41 GMT So, what is your favorite thing about couponing? Saving money? Getting things for free? Is it the hunt for the best deal? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/44577/what-is-your-favorite-thing-about-couponing.htmlWed, 04 Aug 2010 15:05:05 GMT I was at kingsoopers this morning and bought 4 gillete body wash for 1.99 each.used 2 $2 off MQ and 2 BOGO Q for these and it came down to $3 dollars overage . And once again it got me into trouble.so I bought some other items to cover it. whichI was fine with it.http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/43431/hi,-therepossible-overage-on-gillete-body-wash.htmlFri, 30 Jul 2010 13:24:17 GMT I know that Kingsoopers has a policy that no more than 3 coupons for one item but what I didn't know is that I can only use 3 coupons for one item a a day!!! I was going to get 50 crest toothpastes and donate all of them. Just to test out what Jennie taught in the class.So I do different transactions.But the cashier that I talked to called the manager and stop me from doing this.And tole me I bought way over I should.Somehow I feel really mad over this and I know I shouldn't. Did I do something wrong?Did anyone have experience like this? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/42209/feel-really-humilated-today-at-in-kingsoopers.htmlSun, 25 Jul 2010 16:44:32 GMT Hey all, I know this is a very individual topic but, I was wondering if anyone wanted to share there target prices. I have a few but just in my head . . . and I follow Jennie's rule of not paying for toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, etc. What are your target prices? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/40895/target-pricing.htmlTue, 20 Jul 2010 14:21:59 GMT If you had to pick just one...what would you say is the best deal you have ever got? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/40882/best-deal-you-ever-got.htmlTue, 20 Jul 2010 13:01:16 GMT So, this is non-coupon related question. My daughter is 2 years, 10 months and has just decided to stop napping. Argh! I have not been able to make her do "quiet time" in her room either. Any suggestions from the seasoned moms out there? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/40255/question-for-moms-.htmlFri, 16 Jul 2010 18:47:17 GMT Thank you all for joining and getting the Bargain Blessings Community kicked off! :) The winner of the 1 Year subscription to All You Magazine is TORI! Congrats! Tori~ Please shoot me an e-mail with your mailing info. :) Jennie http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/40069/and-the-winner-is.htmlThu, 15 Jul 2010 17:29:08 GMT I haven't had this happen before...I went to King Soopers today to take advantage of their Mega Sale event. I noticed on my receipt when I got home that about $12 worth of eCoupons did not come off my bill! (Some eCoupons did, so I know my card was working...) I double-checked online to make sure they were on there - they were - so my question is: What is my recourse? Return to the store? Contact KS online? Wondered in anyone else has had this problem... http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/40067/ecoupons-not-working.htmlThu, 15 Jul 2010 17:08:53 GMT I'm having trouble every now and then printing internet coupons, especially from coupons.com. The most recent problem was in trying to print the Bar S Coupon, referred to in the most recent King Soopers post. It said I had already printed it the maximum number of times, so I tried from my other computer and it still gave me the same message, even though I've never printed that coupon before from either computer. Any suggestions? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39983/printing-internet-coupons.htmlThu, 15 Jul 2010 01:56:59 GMT Ok fellow Q-poners! I've got one for you. Does your husband/wife get frustrated and angry b/c you eat and sleep couponing? My husband gets so angry if I'm on the computer couponing by the time he gets home. He loves that I'm saving money but doesn't want me on the computer in the evenings. I am trying to honor him by getting done before he gets home from work but sometimes I just can't get it completed. How about you? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39876/hubby-and-couponing.htmlWed, 14 Jul 2010 18:41:26 GMT Last week an asst. store manager at the Safeway on Ken Caryl/C-470 said they were no longer taking eCoupons (she said Safeway had just changed their coupon policy), but a couple days before that the store manager accepted them, so she went ahead & took it. Next time I go, I'm going to verify if they are or are not taking ecoupons, but just thought I would ask if you've heard anything similar to this recently. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39694/safeway-ecoupons-question.htmlTue, 13 Jul 2010 20:15:00 GMT When I print eCoupons, it usually only lets me print one, every now & then 2, otherwise I have to go to my laptop and print a 2nd one from there. Sometimes you post deals where you need 2+ eCoupons (1 for ea. item you're buying, like buy 4/$4), and I was wondering if you have any advice on how to print multiple eCoupons or how it is that you figure in having more than 1 eCoupon of an item to get the deal. http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39693/ecoupons-question.htmlTue, 13 Jul 2010 20:14:13 GMT Hi! As I just posted on BlogFrog, I recently moved to CO, heard about the awesome Bargain Blessings website through a friend, and have been loving it ever since. I've tried to go through all of the helpful pages on couponing, different stores' rules, etc., but I still have a few questions, so I'll post each one in it's own discussion to make it easier to respond. Does BB base the price-grading system on previous prices for that particular product (including comparing it to a generic equivalent) and if so, is there a place I can find the "best-price-to-date" & the store it was at (even if it's an old price that's not currently available) for particular products? In other words, rather than going price-comparison shopping at each store, do you have a spreadsheet or something I can reference so I can keep a running tally of the best price seen on a product and which store it was at, say in the last year or so? (This would be helpful for those times when I really need a product & can't necessarily wait for the absolute best deal or it's not on sale that week so I don't know what price-grade it typically has, but would like to know if I can get close to a good deal.) http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39692/price-grading-question.htmlTue, 13 Jul 2010 20:12:46 GMT What are some of your favorite things to stock up on? http://theblogfrog.com/1343698/forum/39406/stocking-up.htmlMon, 12 Jul 2010 15:07:48 GMT Welcome!
