Food Storage/Stockpile Calculators

As you can see I have been thinking alot about my food storage/stockpile lately.  Maybe because we have had the need this last year to use it because of a drop in our income.  My husband and I always talk about when this trial in our lives is over, that we need to make an extra effort to make sure we have a better supply built up.  Thankfully, I started couponing about the time our world was turned upside down.  I don't want to get into the details, but we have been hit with a 50% paycut for the last 1 1/2-2 yrs.  We have not had to change our eating habits (yes, we may not have been purchasing lots of steaks and seafood-but overall, not much change) or household items that we use.  I am so grateful for the blessing couponing has been to our family.  With that said, I was talking with a friend a while ago and she had researched Food Storage Calculators.  This is perfect!  I have always wondered how much of something I should be stocking up on.  Thanks Ginger for doing the work and finding these awesome resources! 

I am including the links to two websites that she found helpful and that I am now using:

1.  Three Month Food Storage Supply

2.  Long Term Food Storage Calculator

Thanks so much to Ginger, PreparedLDSFamily and FoodStorageMadeEasy!!!

Stock Up Prices

I am sure most of you, like me, wonder "What is a good stock up price?".  Well, I went searching to see if I couldn't find some help and came across the KrazyCouponLady Stock Up Price List.  I found this very helpful for me because I always have a question on whether something is a good deal or not (if I don't see it on Grocery Smarts). 

I hope this helps a little bit! 

Thanks KrazyCouponLady!

Foods With the Longest Expiration Dates

Hello everyone!  I had a friend send this article to me and I found it very informative.  I never knew you could keep some of these items for so long!

I hope you enjoy the article and find some helpful information.

Happy Saving!!!

Olay sent out a new rebate offer for $20 back on a $50 purchase. I have been able to do this rebate several times in the past and it works out to be a really great deal.

The purchasing dates are from 7/5-9/2 and you do not need to spend $50 all at once. Typically this is based on pre-coupon totals, so circle those ones on the receipt. Lately every week there has been some sort of RR, ECB or +Up deal on Olay so this can make for some very inexpensive products!

FYI - This rebate only applies to facial cleansers, facial treatments or facial moisturizers.

Who doesn't like FREE toothbrushes!

So, I know this is late-but I just wanted to share with you!  I just ran to Bel Air and this is what I got:

Can you say FREE FREE FREE!!!!!!!

So, I am not sure if you all know about the AWESOME coupon that Staples has right now (bummer it actually expires tomorrow), but it is SO cool!  They have a $3 off any purchase coupon that you can score some amazing stuff for FREE!!!!  What is even more amazing is that if you purchase exactly $3 then the coupon takes it away, making your subtotal $0 and they don't tax $0.  So, we walked away several times without even taking out my wallet.  It was the best.

So, the coupon says "Limit 1 coupon per person per day".  I have taken my girls and gone to 6 stores in the last 2 days to get all this fun stuff.  I am glad they humor me and go along with it. :)  I had a few cashiers say I can't do this, but I said that it says 1 per person, not 1 per household. 

So here is what we got:
10 - 8oz hand sanitizer
3 - Wet Ones (40 wipes per container)
11 - 50ct closable sandwich bags
3 - 2pk (2oz) hand sanitizer
1 - 7ct magnetic clips
3 - 12pk gel mini pens
1 - 11x14 reversible dry erase board
3 - Flexible Straws (100 ct)
5 - 8.9x11.4 Expo dry erase boards (reversible)
1 - 12pk mechanical pencils
1 - 2pk sponges (the girls wanted them so they could "wash" their toys)
1 - 6 in 1 tool set (Mike thought this was good to have around)
2 - Reams of staples copy paper (will be free after rebate)

Then, we got 5 6pk of Bounty paper towels for a grand total of $10.76.

And yes, we will be going again tomorrow :)

Good luck!!!!!!

Rite Aid Deals 1/31

So who doesn't like to get paid for things :) 
This is my Rite Aid run yesterday and I have to say I am pretty excited for the stuff I got.

6 Lays Stax ($2/2) also running a $1Up+Reward for each can-FREE
9 Edy's/Dreyers 1.5qt Ice Cream ($2.99), with $2 Up+Reward for each container-.99 ea
4 A&W Root Beer 2 L (4/$5), with a $1 Up+Reward when you buy 4-$4
2 Rubbermaid Containers (B1G1 50%), with a $2 Up+Reward when you buy $10 worth-$13
1 Neuragen Pain Gel ($19.99), used $10/1 c/o from RP 12/5 (expired 1/31), send away for $19.99 Single Check Rebate-$9.99
4 Tylenol Precise Pain Relievers (from Rain Check) $5, used $6/2 c/o from SS 1/9 Johnson-$8

Total OOP-$31.05 (because I got stuck on stupid and didn't split up one of my transactions-dang it)
Recevied-$41 Up+Reward, plus I will be receiving $12 Up+Reward from Tylenol Rain Check
Single Check Rebate-$19.99

So, when all is said and done-I came out on top with a PROFIT of $41.94.  YEAH!!!!!!!

Okay, so they have several double promo deals going on right now.  The best way to maximize your savings is to buy those things that are doing the double deals.  For instance, the Lays Stax and Edy's/Dryer's Ice Cream are both in a double promo.  When you buy $15 worth of these items (plus others listed in the ad) you will get a $5 Up+Reward. 

Here is an example of one of my transactions:
6 Edy's/Dreyers 1.5qt Ice Cream ($2.99)
Total- 17.94
Received- 6 $2Up+Rewards and a $5 Up+Reward for being over the $15

So, it really comes out to .94 for 6 1.5qt Edy's/Dryer's ice cream.  Not bad at all!!!!!

Let me know what great deals you find!

Starting Sunday at Walgreens: Make $2 on Children’s Medicine, Plus Glad & Huggies Deals

Did you all see Joanie, from The Krazy Coupon Lady, on TLC this last Wednesday!  She did a fantastic job at showing us what an Extreme Couponer does.  I loved watching them all--I do think that some of them have a little OCD in them (BIG TIME), but they are all inspiring.

Thanks to thekrazycouponlady for the following deals at Walgreen's this coming week.  They are written so well, I am not going to change a thing.
