Target in-home mailer coupon book

Tonight I checked the mail and much to my delight, I found a little book of Target coupons!  I'm not sure if this is a general mailing, or how we got this, but it was actually address to my husband! :) 

Lots of great coupons to pair up with manufacturer coupons, here are a few of my favorites that I know I also have manufacturer for to make a superb deal-especially if Target has a sale!
  • Clorox Bleach, $0.50
  • Cottonelle, $1.00
  • Bounty, $1.00
  • Dial bar or body wash, $1.00
  • Ziploc, $0.50
  • Swiffer, $1.00
  • Kelloggs cereal or POP TARTS (lol!), $0.50
  • There are quite a few pet coupons as well, I'll pass these to my coupon clipping co-worker and hope she can score a deal.

VocalPoint

In my research on coupons and cutting the budget, I have run across "VocalPoint" more than once.  Apparently they send out some pretty sweet samples and coupons when you join up.  You have to actually login to their site and request various samples, and then come back and review them--so a teeny bit of work is required, but it sounds like fun to me!

The current promotion that I requested earlier today is a 28 day sample of Olay Pro-X.  I'm really looking forward to trying this product!  It is supposed to help your skin be softer, younger looking and keep moisture in-I need that!

Check it out, http://www.vocalpoint.com/

$1.60 off Nature Valley Nut Clusters

I saw these for $1.99 the other day at Econo....$1.60 off means just 33 cents!

Free Cards

Somewhere along the line within the past month, I found a link to request 2 free greeting cards from Hallmark.  I really should have shared the link...if I can find it, I will if the cards are still available.

Anyway, I got them in the mail this past week and they are really cute!

The first one is to send to another Mom and it has a picture of a woman at the fridge, it reads:

"Sure we're busy, but we can still feed our kids well-rounded meals.  Pizza...toaster waffles...bologna...doughnuts..."

You open it, and:

"How are things at your house?"
I about busted out laughing (while at work) when I read this.

Guess what Henry had for breakfast this morning?????!


The second card is a picture of a frog and it reads,

"I found this smile..."

You open it, and:

"...and thought you could use it!"

It's meant to give to your child as they embark on the first day of school.  While Henry is too young for school, this greeting card is generic enough to send to a friend who needs a pick-me-up.

I fully expected lame cards-but these are really great!  Thanks Hallmark!  (and Wal*Mart....lol)
