Did you know Famous Footwear has a rewards program? We don't even shop there very often but we have managed to get several items free or nearly free using this program in the last couple months. My husband just signed up on a whim when he was buying a pair of shoes this summer. We keep getting coupons or "gift certificates" in the mail for $10 off ANY purchase or $20 off ANY purchase with NO minimum purchase requirements!
Whenever we get one I just send my husband to the store and he picks up a couple pair of socks...for free! Last time he didn't even pay tax...he literally walked out with his socks and didn't pay a penny! Joining is free. And like I said we don't really shop there much but it seems we have gotten plenty of "rewards" so far!
Here is the info from their website:

Free Pizza Snacks
Copps has the Pizza Snacks on sale $10 for 10 this week. Be sure and use the $1 off coupon here to get at least one free box. There were coupons in the paper and there are additional printable at Betty Crocker and BoxTops.
In My Mailbox
My mailbox was stuffed with freebies today! I got a little box of goodies from Ziploc including several bags and a container from Right @ Home, a free pair of Hanes underwear (I won them playing a contest on the Hanes website), and several free product coupons: one 2L of diet Dr. Pepper, one can of Del Monte tomatoes, and a package of kids nutritional drinks. Heather at Freebies4Moms posts all sorts of freebies and easy to win contests daily.
This didn't arrive in my mailbox...yet! But I got an email telling me I won a "Carrier" bag in a blog giveaway today! That was a pleasant surprise for an otherwise uneventful Monday!! I had my choice of ten fabric combinations. I ended up choosing the one pictured here:

Target Deals
TOTAL=$2.86***THIS DEAL IS NOW DEAD...Target changed their coupons***
I stopped at Target yesterday to get a few good deals. I thought I'd post about it since the deals use mostly internet printables and last until mid-February.
Ocean Spray Light ($1.99)--using $1 Target printable and $1 off printables here. Ocean Spray "Light" only---the Target on GV does have these. You can print as many Target coupons as you want but limit one per transaction. (I've heard they will let you use more than one but didn't try it.) Print 2 man. coupons and there were also $1 off coupons in the 1/11 RP. I've done this deal twice now and hope to do it two more times!
Kashi cereal bars--if you got the mailers from Vocal Point and/or Kashi you should have "free box" coupons and several $2 off coupons. These are on "price cut" at Target through mid-February making them free or $.75 per box. There are $2 printables here. Just in case you didn't get the mailers...and if you didn't be sure and sign up with Vocal Point!
Yoplait Light yogurt cups--$1 off eight Target coupon here and $1 off four printables here. There are $.40 off four coupons from the paper. That's $.17 per yogurt!

Hello GB Savers!
Hi Everyone! Shelly kindly added me as a contributor to this site since I've been blogging at my own site about my shopping deals. I owe it all to Shelly and Theresa! Their presentation at our GBAMOM meeting opened my eyes to the world of couponing and being a smart shopper. Since then I've stocked up on all kinds of goodies from CVS and am starting to make a lot of progress in shrinking my grocery budget. Visit my blog if you're interested in seeing how I've been saving money. Thanks again Shelly for inviting me to GBSavers!!
Excedrin Coupon
Use this to make $2 buying Excedrin at CVS next week!

Kids Workshop February 7th
Just thought I'd remind you that the first Saturday of each month the Home Depot offers a FREE kids workshop. We went last month and my boys really enjoyed making their football helmet bookends. February's project is a Heart Trinket Box:
This would be a great gift for Grandma! There is no need to register. Just show up at any Home Depot between 9am and noon. If you go to the HD on the east side maybe I'll see you there!
P.S. March's project is a Car Raceway...my boys will love that!

Coupon Printing Help
If you have trouble printing a coupon you have found a link for...read this!
The Cliffs Notes version is this:
Different people use different browsers. Different browsers use different address to get coupons to print. So depending on what browser the person who posted the link to the coupon was using...you may or may not be able to get certain coupons to work because the actual URL is wrong for your browser.
Example:
Here is a link to a $1 off any Pizza Snacks I found:
hxxp://bricks.coupons.com/Start.asp?tqnm=qa1tdgl80252894&bt=xs&o=55094&ci=1&c=GM&p=PDCxEdg9
See those red letters? This is where you need to fix the link depending on what browser you use.
If you use Firefox make sure your link has: wg
If you use IE make sure your link has: wi (or vi)
If you use Safari make sure your link has: xs
So if you click a link and can't get the coupon to print that is probably why. Change those two letter, hit refresh, and try again. This little tip has already helped me print several coupons I could never get to work before! I was so happy to find it!

Frosty Flicks
Normally we do not see too many movies in the theater. Frosty Flicks at both Bay Park and the one in the GB East Industrial Park is a great buy. For $2.50 you get to see a newer movie in the theater and the admission includes a small bag of popcorn. Today was the first week and the special continues through March 14. Check out the link for the other movies.
