If you’ve been reading Thrifty Mommy for a while, then you know that I enjoy buying birthday presents for my kids when they are on clearance.  I try to shop around for things I know my children will like, except I don’t have the guilt of paying outrageous prices for their toys and I don’t feel too much of a loss if the item becomes forgotten and ends up in the yard sale.
Alligator Girl’s birthday is July 4th and here’s a look at the cool stuff she got, thanks to her Thrifty Mommy!

For quite a while now I’ve been using the same coupon organization system. I was using The Grocery Game to help me find deals on groceries. The Grocery Game tells you which week of the paper to pull the coupons from so that you don’t need to clip the coupons until you need them.

The filing system shown above a great system to use if you’re only using The Grocery Game.  I definitely like the convenience of the system.  The big problem is, I’m missing out on saving money on unadvertised specials, close-outs, and triple coupon sales.  I can’t tell you the number of …read more

If you’ve ever shopped for coffee, then chances are you’ve noticed the many different brands and prices.  If you’re trying to comparison shop, then you want the best price for the taste.  The problem I have is, what is the difference between them?

Millstone is a popular coffee. I like that you can buy it by the pound. I don’t brew a lot of coffee, so I like that I can purchase 1/4 lb if I choose.  It also allows me to try different flavors and bean types without feeling stuck with a whole pound of something (if I don’t like it).  …read more

I had to take J to a doctor’s appointment this week.  We passed by Harris Teeter and I suddenly remembered that they were having triple coupons.  Then I was so mad at myself because I didn’t bring my coupons (was driving hubby’s car).  Harris Teeter is 30 minutes from my house. 
After the appointment, I decided to take a walk through Harris Teeter to see what their specials were, without the triple coupon savings.  I found several great deals.  I picked up some cube steak, stew meat, boneless chicken, and deli meats and cheese.  All were good prices. 

Then I wandered down …read more

Yesterday, I went to Wal-Mart, the devil store because I spend way too much money there, and splurged on a pregnancy craving (at least I am using it as a good excuse at this point HAHA) – ramen noodles.  I realize, before you give me a hard time about the sodium, they are horrible nutritionally.  But they are wonderful!
So anyway, I went and just hate to have to load up 10 separate boxes.  So I was very happy when I saw them packaged for 6 packs for $1.82 or 30.33 cents a piece.  Then I looked at the individual ones …read more

OK, so I have to admit I was watching a short spot on The View this morning and I saw a great idea for staying modestly dressed.

We went to the big city last night (heehee) and stopped by Super Target.  I found some good grocery deals.
Egglands Best eggs are $1.47/dozen.  This is a great price, as regular large eggs cost more than this sale price.  I bought 3 dozen!
Jones All Natural Sausage are on sale for $1.25 per package of 10 links.  Then, there is a coupon on the box to save $1 on 2 boxes.
Kraft shredded cheese is $2 per 8 oz package.  And if you can find a coupon, even better.
Top round steak is $1.99/lb.  These kinds of steaks are great for stir fry and …read more
