In My Mailbox Today…

I actually had some great stuff in the mailbox this week.  I usually don’t request a ton of samples and things so what I do get I am usually really excited about.

So this week I got my free Babytalk magazine (that is still available here)

I got the free $10 gift card to Red Robin plus the coupon for a free kid’s meal thanks to Pampers Rewards

I got the $10 rebate from buying 2 Listerine a few months ago- I got the Listerine for free at Target so this was really a deal.  (If you got this too I heard from a few people you need to make sure the cards are loaded before you try to use them.  Apparently some are finding they need to call because there is a 0 balance on the cards.)

I got the free coupon for a bag of dog food

And I got 2 Entertainment Books in the mail. I ordered one for my local city and one for NYC since we are heading there next week.  These were $5 each and I was excited to find a $5/50 coupon inside for my local grocery store!  That alone paid for the book.  You can still get them for 2/$10- be sure to use Ebates and get 25% cash back plus a $5 bonus for new members…  Just click on Ebates and search under Entertainment.com.  Then click through and order your books!

Anyone else have a great week at the mailbox?

    I signed up for the free dog food coupon (got my coupon earlier in the week) and went yesterday to get it. I was shocked – 6 lb. bag of dog food for $18.99!! Who pays that for dog food? I do buy premium but wow~ Anyway, thanks for sharing this coupon. My dogs loved the special treat!

    I also recently received the “free” dog food coupon from Natura and was also shocked to find out that the variety I wanted was $14.99 OR $19.99 (price depended on flavor within the line). It was nice to hear that someone else also found that this food was expensive. When I signed up for the coupon, I had to select a specific retailer to purchase from. I am curious to know if anyone has bene able to use the coupon to get the food FREE.

    I got my dog food last week ,my dogs loved it. I got the EVO brand and it was priced at $14 bucks. It was nice to see my dogs enjoy a treat (they have expensive taste) lol, My store was shocked at the coupon and asked how they could get one too!!

    @ Susan , I had to pay the tax at my store which was like a $1 and some change, but not bad for a $14 bag of dog food!!

    I am confused? The coupon is for a free bag of dog food. If you didn’t get it in time the $7 off is not going to get you a deal it is ultra premium stuff. Susan you should be able to walk into the store you selected and walk out with a free bag of food- did you have a problem doing that? There is no price restriction on the coupon I received.

    I got my free dog food coupon last week. I also had signed my dad up, and he went to get his. He said it was no problem! He didn’t mention the price.

    I had an excellent week at the mailbox!! I got several samples, a full size shampoo and conditioner to try for a research site, and, best of all……I got my ipod from SoBe!!! Awesome!

    I got my Shick razor rebate for $8.97 and my entertainment book for $5.00. I was able to use the $5/50 at Safeway on Tuesday night. I ended up spending $18.00 oop, but got the $5.00 catalina for the Kraft cheese. So, approx $50 before coupons and $13.00 after. Pretty good for two bags full of yogurt and cheese!
    Jealous about New York, and of Kristi’s free ipod!

    I had a good week too! I got my rebate from Schick, my rebate from Finesse, La Vida Rica Kraft sampler, my Rachel Ray magazine which was super inexpensive for a one year subscription! All in all a good week at the mailbox!

    This was a good mailbox week! 🙂 Got my dog food coupon, got our Schick rebates, Kraft rebate, a few samples (Playtex, Pampers, both with good coupons inside & 10 Pampers points!) and my 2 Entertainment Books (which already saved us $70 on a hotel reservation!!! 🙂
    Unrelated to the mail, I picked up more of the Purina One SmartBlend sample bags at Target (free with coupon) and to my delight, opened them all up today, and there was a $1 off Q inside! 🙂 Between that and the deals at Rite Aid & Shop Rite, it was a GREAT couponing week! 🙂

    I was wondering if anyone has received the Listerine Rebate yet. I wanted to get the dog food coupon but the store that honored it was 1 1/2 hours away. Boo!
    Wow Kristi you won an Ipod from Sobe… Did you win it off a code or the game?

    I received my SC Johnson $15.00 in rebates. Redeemed my coupon for free Kraft olive oil mayo.

    Charlene..you’ll be in my neck of the woods this coming week! I live in the big apple. Have a blessed trip:)
