Healthy Choice Soup for 5 cents at Festival!

Healthy Choice Soup is part of the Con Agra buy 10 for $8 deal this week. You can stack the $.50/2 Festival store coupons (in the red box at the front of the store) and $1/2 manufacturer coupons in the 10/17 Smart Source to get each can of soup for almost nothing. There are also several other good deals at Festival this week.

Here's the math:

$8 for 10 items (or $.80 each)
-$2.50 (.50/2 store coupon x5, you may print and use more than one)
-5 ($1/2 manufacturer coupons, if you have that many... if not it's still a great deal!)
TOTAL = $.50 or $.05 each!!

You could possible make this into a money maker if you fill out the
Con Agra rebate here.

Even if you aren't fond of this brand of soup... consider taking advantage of this deal and donating the cans to a local food bank!

Stock Up Watch: November

Can you believe it's November already?! Just a quick heads up if this if your first deal seeking fall... stock up! When you see a great deal take advantage of it. There will lots of great money saving opportunities coming up in the next couple months.

If you shop deals now you should be able to stock up on enough flour, sugar, canned veggies, canned soups, and various other baking supplies to last you several months and maybe even until next year at this time. If you find a great deal on something that only goes on sale in the fall, do the math (how much is a year's supply for your family?) and then stock up now when it's on sale! Even if you don't ever clip a single coupon this will save you a TON of money.

Do that for each deal you come across and you'll soon find you are spending much less at the grocery store. Or better yet, you might find you don't have to go to the store for a week or two at all! Click here to read more about the basics of stockpiling.

In addition to great grocery store savings November and December will offer deals on toys and various other electronics like TVs, camcorders, GPS units, and other small electronic items. Keep an eye on the ads if you are looking for any of these items!

Speaking of stockpiling... here is a great (and very cheap) way to organize and store your canned goods.
