About Us

I am a stay at home mom with four wonderful kids. I have been married for over 10 years to my best friend. I am head over heels in love with him. He always supports my crazy "thrifty adventures". We have a lot of fun together.

I was raised on a small dairy farm. Where I learned very young, the value of hard work and how to be thrifty in all areas of life. Growing up our meals were made from scratch. Only on special occasion would we get name brand cereal, chips, or any other fancy treats. Now that I am a Mom with my own budget, the basic foods always comes first. I too make most of our meals from scratch and take pride in feeding my family a well balanced healthy diet.

I enjoy seeing how far I can make our budget stretch, and when I take the time to match sales with coupons I am able to get all those "fun & fancy" items that would other wise be out of my budget. Being thrifty has always been a way of life for me, but it has also become a real joy.

Readers Thrifty deal on Purex

purex_new1

I bought Purex fabric softner at Albertsons on sale for $2.49 and it printed out a $1.50 catalina plus a $1.50/2 coupon. Went and bought more to use the $1.50/2 coupon and it printed out another $1.50 catalina and a $2.00/3 coupon. When I went to another store to use this coupon, it printed off 2 $1.50 catalinas and another $2.00/3 coupon. Woo-hoo!!! This makes it less than 1.00 a bottle! Thanks Jennifer!

Readers update*** It looks like a few ladys have tried this deal and it has not worked for them?  Maybe the Catalina ended yesterday?  Does anyone know for sure?  Jennifer which Albertsons did you go to?

    Maybe the deal is only in ID, I live in WA, went to Albertsons in Renton, WA on 5/29 and it did not work for me.

    Didn’t work for me at the caldwell stadium store. It only printed the coupon not the catalina. Bummer.

    This was the Albertsons in Hillsboro, OR. Maybe it’s already over??? I bought all the different scents so I know that wouldn’t be the problem. I did it Wed and Thurs, but haven’t tried today. Bummer!

    Didn’t work for me either. :(

    I tried that deal today and it did not work for me. Maybe it’s only certain “scents” of the purex, I don’t know, just know I didn’t get a “thrifty” deal today. :) bummer. :)

    Thanks for the Purex heads up. Are you all aware that a $2 catalina is printing when you spend $5.69 for the two 5-pks of Kraft macaroni and cheese and two boxes of Capri Sun Sunrise, making it $3.69 when purchased separately in sets of two pkg.

    I got a notice that the Nampa 12th St. store is having a Friday 8:00-4:00 or until sold, special sale tomorrow.

    Any coupon for the fab softener around?
