* indicate that I KNOW coupons are out there for those products, there may be others.
The forms were in Sunday coupon inserts on 4/5 or 3/31. If you didn't get one, The Coupon Clippers has one available on their site. Go to Forms, then scroll down, and you'll see the unilever rebate.
If these are items you need, this month would be a good time to buy them (purchases can be made between 4/1 and 4/30). Some of these brands are also included in Safeway's Living Well Promo that starts 4/15, so if you purchase them at that time, you'll also get a $10.00 Catalina for your next purchase. Rolling that Catalina to future purchases of the same products will further reduce your cost, lowering your overall bill and still qualifying you for the free ham. So far I have $15.90 towards a free ham, although I only spent $11.60 actual cash (based on sale price, after coupons).

This Week's Shopping 4/3/09
This week I did three different stores:
Our local in town market, Ringo’s. The usually have some great sales. Their regular prices are considerably higher than the stores in Trinidad, but with their sales, and the convenience of them being local, they are great for when you run out of bread. They also have amazing customer service.
Safeway. Our store in Trinidad is coupon friendly. I do, however, often have to get rainchecks on sale items.
Walmart. Blech, but necessary. It is my goal to reduce my Walmart trips to one a month or less once the littles are out of diapers.
Prices noted are shelf prices. Items in Italics were on sale (shelf price, not sale price, reflected). Items on which I used coupons have * next to them.

Lesson Learned: Even with coupons, some store brands are still cheaper. It is, however, a good idea to still hold on to coupons you can get in your paper or for free for items you need often, but buy the store brand of (diapers and pull ups, for us). Our store is often out of the store brand for diapers, so we end up having to buy the higher priced brands. Coupons help us save there, even if we wouldn’t normally buy that brand without a coupon, or even with a coupon.
I do find myself buying more items that I normally would have made from scratch (biscuits, chicken nuggets, etc), but with working, time is more valuable-I'd rather be spending it tickling giggly girls or kissing baby belly or reading Aimee's writing or having a philosophical discussion with Saren than cooking in my tiny kitchen that makes spending family time together in there difficult. Yet another one of those choices we have to make.

A great ebayer...
So I buy coupons. OK, I don't actually buy coupons. I pay for the time to clip, sort and mail the coupons. So I buy a coupon broker's time, and get the coupons for free. I don't have good newspapers around here, so my ability to get the coupons free in the weekly inserts in the Sunday paper is pretty small, so I'm thankful for the coupon sellers that charge me for their time and effort. It gives me the opportunity to save more money for my family's grocery budget.
Anyway, in the last few weeks, I have bought a lot of coupons on ebay. I guess I should say ordering coupons, since I'm not buying the Q's, but the time of the broker. Again.
Anyway, one of the folks I ordered coupons from, I got two batches, and they arrived sometime in the last couple of days. One of them was in a different envelope, having been rewrapped by the post office. Seems the envelope ripped in shipping and they plopped it in another envelope and sent it on it's way. It was a pretty significant rip. The thing is, this ebay seller took the five seconds to wrap the coupons in a separate piece of paper. Only one other seller did that. But this seller, because she took the time to wrap it, averted the loss of my coupons. That little act, I'm sure, prevented my coupons from being strewn all over the place when the envelope got ripped. I really appreciate effort like that, so I wanted to share it with you all.
