PostHeaderIcon What are you Lucky for? Free Redbox Movies!

These days I like any activity that I can do with the boys that is either pretty cheap or totally free. On the weekends that the boys are at home with me, they love to “camp out”. This consists of my king size mattress (Yea, total blast to move by myself by the way!) on the living room floor. We all grab our pillow and blankets and all 3 of us sleep on it. (Sorry but Mom refuses to sleep on the floor lol) The game is to see who falls asleep first and who can stay up the longest. Spencer always falls asleep first and a few times Royal has beat me at staying up! While camping out,  we watch a lot of movies and it starts right after dinner. We get a few movies from Redbox because they are only $1! The only thing better than $1 a night movies…free movies of course!  Lucky you, Redbox is giving everyone the chance to score some free movies now through St. Patrick’s Day during the Redbox Lucky to Have Friends Like You promotion. Each fan receives a unique web address and each time someone rents a movie using your address through March 17, you get a free movie credit!! Credits are valid for ten (10) days after they’ve been deposited into your account. Spread the word, and lucky you could be rolling in free movies this March!

I never gave much thought to certain holidays like St Patrick’s Day. Other than Green Beer and Green Milkshakes, I suppose it could be a day to really give some thought to what are YOU lucky for? My dad always said if it wasn’t for bad luck, he would have no luck at all. As an adult I really understand what he meant. I don’t consider myself to be lucky in many areas but what I am lucky for is to have my boys by my side almost 24/7. They are happy, healthy and the best kiddos a mom could ask for! Okay… well… maybe I would make Spencer throw less tantrums and Royal whine less BUT other than that, they are perfect! ;) I also feel VERY lucky to still have my mom and my brothers in my life. I wish my Dad were here but we can’t have it all :)

What makes you feel lucky? I would love to hear!!

PostHeaderIcon Kroger: CartBuster Deals & Digital Coupons

Who doesn’t like getting all of their favorite groceries at a bargain? I know I certainly do! How do you find your deals? Weekly store circulars? Deal blogs? Friends and family? I personally just look at my weekly ads these days. I used to use A LOT of coupons but I just don’t have the time anymore. Now when I am looking at the ads, I look for in store promotions like Kroger’s current CartBuster savings event! From February 27th to March 12th, customers can get savings on products from brands like P&G, General Mills, Nestle, and Pepsi by visiting the Kroger Facebook page.

Not only are their thousands of items on sale, but, you can also add a bunch or digital coupons to your Kroger card for even more savings! I don’t normally find a to many digital coupons that fit my buying needs but there are some great ones you can load up now. I just added 27 of them to my card! If you have never used Kroger’s digital coupons before, it is simple. Just register (for free) at the Kroger site, enter your card Plus Card savings information and ad the savings you want.  When you purchase any product that you added a coupon for, you savings will automatically be deducted at the end of your order. I personally LOVE this because there is no coupon clipping, not having to remember your coupons, no losing coupons while shopping (yes, I have done this many times)… It is so convenient. There is no excuse why you are not saving a little extra this week with this easy option to save on your favorite brands.

Another way to work with these sales is to plan your meals ahead of time with your sales flyer. I do this and not only does it save me from walking around the store just grabbing things that look good. I already have a list of things I need so I can match that with whats on sale for the upcoming week! Sale cycles for items being on sale  is every 6 to 8 weeks so stock up when you see the deal you can’t turn down!

Also save a few extra cents by bring in reusable bags, I just heard that Kroger gives $.05 off per bag you use. Can anyone confirm this?
