Best Deals/Stockpiling


BEST TIME TO BUY AND WHAT ITEMS TO BUY


JANUARY - Historically, Quaker has hot deals on cereal/all items. We see Pepsi/Tostitos go on sale mid-January (again, rebates abound for these). Other items of note this time of year are chili, side dishes, anything for hearty/warm meals.
• Post-Holiday Sales
• White Sales
• Sports and Weight Loss Equipment
• Computers
• Winter Apparel and Accessories
· Organizers, Rubbermaid totes, shelf organizers, planners, filing cabinets

FEBRUARY – many of the same food items as January
• Electronics
• Floor Coverings
• Housewares
• Furniture
• Candy and Chocolates

MARCH - Frozen food month. You'll find many stores are offering free freezers or fill-a-bag deals. Between March and April, look for spring cleaning deals, so many cleaner items will be on sale. With Easter, looks for eggs, ham, Kraft products to cycle into good sales. Paper products like towels, napkins, plates are starting to come on strong. Beverage items.
• Spring Apparel and Accessories
• Winter Sports Equipment
• Gardening Supplies
• Luggage


APRIL –
• Spring Apparel and Accessories
• Coats and Hats
• Paint
• Wallpaper
• Jewish Foods and Eggs

MAY - get ready for summer! Here come loads of deals on BBQ sauce, frozen veggies, baked beans, and condiments of all kinds, summer-time meats (ribs, hotdogs, and ground beef). Also with all the holidays, look for tons of paper goods that match the holiday and pick them up after clearance. These deals generally continue through September!
• White Sale - Linens and Towels
• Spring Cleaning Supplies
• Auto Maintenance
• Home Maintenance
• Sodas & Bottled Water, Hotdogs, Hamburger Meat, Condiments, Paper & Plastic plates & cups
* Raid/Off bug repellents and sunscreens

JUNE –
• Summer Apparel and Accessories
• Pianos
• Television Sets
• Building Materials and Hardware
• Dairy Products

JULY –
• Air Conditioners
• Summer Sports Equipment
• Sportswear
• Craft Supplies
• Sodas, Hot dogs, Hamburger Meat, Condiments
* Loss leader school supplies start now through the end of August

AUGUST –
• White Sale - Linen and Towels
• BBQ and Patio Equipment
• Back to School Supplies
• Bathing Suits
• Fresh Fish and Vegetables
• Breakfast foods (Cold cereal-Juice-Waffles-etc)
• Cold lunch items for in lunch boxes

SEPTEMBER - back to school; time to fill up on snacks! Pudding cups, Capri suns, fruit snacks, cereal sales start up hard again, peanut butter/jelly. Also, like clockwork, there will be Prego coupons in August, and plan on getting lots and using them in a hurry before they expire in September when the spaghetti sauce goes on sale. Sauce wars between Ragu and Prego this month. Campbell’s soups will go on as well and there will be coupons in the end of August for these as well. Lunch ables are on sale this time of year, too.
• Back to School Supplies and Apparel
• Gardening Supplies
• Housewares
• Bicycles
• Canned Goods

OCTOBER - Stock up on holiday foods – Stove Top, turkey, instant mashed potatoes, broth, cranberries, marshmallow, ice cream, pie shells, whipped cream, pudding. Look for great Kraft deals again this time of year. Piggyback those Kraft coupons when you can. Crackers are a biggie - going on for $1 or less a box. Lots of extra deals like $ off cheese WYB crackers. The real kicker is the after Christmas food deals! Save your coupons because pie fixings, fried onion, broth and canned green beans will be on deep discount. I got those onions for .50 a can, normally almost $4. These generally continue through December.
• Cars
• Houses
• Fishing Equipment
• Crystal, Silver, and Glassware
• Candy
· Baking/candy-making items (choc chips, sprinkles, vanilla, corn syrup, nuts, etc)

NOVEMBER -
• Winter Apparel and Accessories
• Quilts and Blankets
• Heating Devices
• Turkey, Sweet Potatoes
• Canned goods (soup, chicken broth, condensed milk, veggies etc)
• Baking goods

DECEMBER –
• Toys
• Gift Items
• Party ware
• Post-Holiday Sales
• Party Foods, Baking Goods, and Various Meat
• Canned goods (broth, soups, etc)


Year-round after a holiday, you can always pick up cheap cookie dough and any food related to a holiday.

Continual sales are candy, popcorn, chips, anything snacky, cereal (heavier in the fall/winter, but still around in the spring).
Frozen food sales seem to centralize on a brand and the switch brands the next month. I think the manufacturers buy slot time for sales. So last month, Stouffer's was on sale hard, now lean cuisine is. Save the entire frozen coupon and then keep checking back for the brand of the month.

Frozen pizzas go on sale in the fall and then again the spring; not often in the summer because people don't want to turn their ovens on in the summer.

By all means, this isn't everything that you can get on sale, but if you follow the cycle and stock up (I never buy BBQ sauce in the winter), then you can get where you have enough on hand and only need to refill when the items are in season. The result is that you spend less and less with each successful cycle

A great way to help Military famlies with expired coupons

Overseas Coupon Program


HELP MILITARY FAMILIES BY SENDING YOUR EXPIRED COUPONS TO HELP THEM

Military commissaries overseas accept manufacturer cents-off coupons for up to six months past their printed expiration dates. That means that coupons that are useless to you can still save oversea military families some money.

http://www.ocpnet.org/

Click on Overseas base list

According to Becky who is in charge of OCPNET says.

The base in Ikego, Japan, currently needs the most help.

USMC Community Services
ATTN: 5PSVC
PSC 561, Box 1867
FPO AP 96310-1867

One Sunday's coupons in a regular envelope uses a single stamp.

Donation size?

There is no minimum. You'll find that those pesky little pieces of paper add up fast! The average Sunday newspaper contains approximately $125 worth of coupons. Even the smallest donation, when combined with the donations of other individuals, will make a difference in the lives of many military families serving our country overseas.

Expired Coupons?

2 Months Max! Yes expired coupons are accepted. We recommend not sending any coupons older than 2 months expired on the date of shipment. They can use them for a couple of months after that but remember that the volunteers at the base must process the coupons once they arrive and get them out to be used. We also need to leave enough time for them to have the families sort through them and find the ones they want for use.

Clip the Coupons

By clipping the coupons, you save the volunteers at the base valuable time. Most organizations are short of needed volunteers. You also save yourself a lot of additional postage since most of the coupon circulars are wasted paper.

What type of Coupons?

Manufacturer’s Coupons are the coupons of choice since they are accepted at any store.

What type of coupons NOT to send?

Do not send Assistance Vouchers, Food Stamps, or any other assistance items. Store coupons, those only good at the store named are useless on a military base overseas. The stores there are the BX/PX or the Commissary. (See below) Do not send restaurant coupons.

Sort the Coupons

Most bases have 2 stores. One is called the “Commissary” which is a grocery store and the other is the PX or BX which is a department store. We therefore ask you to sort the coupons into “food” and “non-food” bundles so that they can more easily be placed in the correct venue once they arrive at the base. If a base wants additional sorting they will let you know.

How to package the coupons?

Use baggies, envelopes, etc., to contain the different categories -- whatever will keep them separated during shipment

(Do not use rubber bands, paper clips, and similar methods of keeping the coupons sorted as they do not work and will come apart in shipping).

Be sure to label the bundles!

What's "Food" and what's not?

Here's my rule of thumb: It's food if it can be eaten by humans, is usually eaten by humans and provides calories. For example, dog & cat food would be "Non-Food," but Ensure or Slim-Fast would be "Food." Vitamins would be non-food.



Tally the coupons

Add up the face value dollar amount for the coupons. Be sure to keep the “food” totals separate from the “non-food” amounts.

If you do not wish to total the coupons you may weigh them. If you choose this method we will give you current average credit. This amount will usually not be as much as if you total them yourself.

"Buy one, get one free" offers usually have a maximum value printed on them. If not, make your best guess.

Buy something, get something by mail offers (e.g., get a stuffed bear for purchasing boxes of Sudafed products) count for zero, but please send them anyway! (These things make nice, inexpensive Christmas gifts for the children.)

"Why total coupons? That's an awful lot of work..."

* So that we may place a value on the work that you do.
* These totals also make you eligible for OCP Awards (Note: awards program currently on hold for evaluation, but remember we could restart it at any time.
* Additionally, this assists OCP HQ in tracking which bases may need to receive more
coupons

SENIORS AND SCHOLARSHIIPS

IF YOU HAVE A SENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL,HERE IS SOME INFORMATION ON SCHOLARSHIPS

"The myth is that you have to have an amazing GPA or SAT score to win a merit-based scholarship," says Ben Kaplan, founder of

http://scholarshipcoach.com/ and author of "How to Go to College Almost for Free." "That thinking takes people out of the running."Students who are otherwise gifted can win money from nonacademic scholarships, such as essay contests, community service scholarships and awards based on artistic or athletic skill.

To find these smaller scholarships, which often offer better odds to entrants, tap your local resources.


Tips for applying for scholarships
Multi-apply. "One mistake people make is that they apply for one or two scholarships and stop," says Kaplan, who applied for three dozen scholarships and won around two dozen for his Harvard education. "Once you've applied to one or two, 60 percent of the work has already been done to apply for 10."

Our $1 Million Service Guarantee

LifeLock!


Upon enrollment you are immediately covered by our $1 million service guarantee.

Within 24 hours of our request:

You will receive an email from us stating that fraud alerts have been requested on your behalf. When fraud alerts are established with the major credit bureaus, creditors are required to verify your identity before opening any new lines of credit, issuing new cards or increasing your credit limit.

You will receive an email from us stating that your credit reports have been ordered on your behalf from the major credit bureaus. Your reports will be sent directly to you.

Every time you apply for new credit or someone tries to do something with your credit:

You should receive a phone call from the bank asking if you are actually the person applying for credit in your name. If you are, great. If not, the transaction stops.

On the next business day after our request:

You will be sent an email from us stating that we have processed the request to remove your name from Junk Mail lists. Not only is junk mail annoying, statistics show it’s also one of the most common ways thieves hijack your identity.

You will be sent an email from us saying that we've asked for you to be removed from pre-approved credit offer lists. Like junk mail, by blocking irritating offers, we also block one of the avenues thieves use to steal your identity.

Once we have made the requests:

You will receive letters from the credit bureaus confirming that fraud alerts have been set.

Your credit reports from each of the major bureaus will be sent to you.

You should begin seeing a dramatic decrease in Pre-approved credit card offers and other junk mail. Please note that banks with which you already do business can continue to send you offers unless you tell them specifically that you don't want them anymore.

About every 90 days and every 90 days thereafter:

Unless you tell us to stop, you will receive emails from us stating that we have requested that your fraud alerts be re-set.

You will receive confirmations from the credit bureaus that your fraud alerts have been re-set.

Every 12 months:

You will receive new copies of your credit reports from all credit bureaus.


If your wallet is ever lost or stolen:

We’re here to help! Just give us a call and a WalletLock Specialist will help you contact each affected credit card, bank or document issuing company, cancel those accounts and complete the paperwork and steps necessary to replace your lost documents*, including your credit/debit cards, driver’s license, social security card, insurance cards, checkbook – even travelers checks – at no additional cost. You’re even covered overseas. *Pictures, cash and other monies are excluded. Member is responsible for all applicable fees charged by document issuing companies to replace lost or stolen documents.


If you ever have a question or need help:

Our highly trained specialists are here to assist you 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 1 800 LIFELOCK (543-3562).

We alert you to potential threats:

We'll keep an eye out for identity threats with our identity monitoring package:

eRecon™ scours known criminal websites for the illegal selling or trading of your personal information (including your Social Security number, credit card numbers, driver’s license and email address, if provided).

TrueAddress™ notifies you when we detect any new address information associated with your name in address databases nationwide. This helps alert you if a criminal has changed your address to steal mail and obtain your financial information.

If you have children ---Check this out

We are reading together after dinner with our 4 children (ages 17-11 years of age)
.
Do Hard Things
ALEX AND BRETT HARRIS

I have been enjoying it myself and recommend
the book.

The official definition of the 'rebelution' is "a teenage rebellion against the low expectations of an ungodly culture." When you look around today, in terms of godly character and practical competence, our culture does not expect much of us young people.

Lord willing we be headed to Dallas Tx for the conference.

BEST WAY NOT TO GET A VIRUSES

Here are the same actions as prepared by an 'Internet Professional' for his corporation. It is an excellent message that ABSOLUTELY applies to ALL persons who send e-mails. Please read the short letter below, even if you're sure you already follow proper procedures. I strongly encourage you to read these guidelines and please try to follow them when you forward e-mails in the future.
------------------------------ ------------------------
HOW TO FORWARD E-MAILS APPROPRIATELY.
Do you really know how to forward e-mails? Some do; most DO NOT.

Do you wonder why you get viruses or junk mail?
Don't you hate it?

Every time you forward an e-mail there is information left over from the people who got the message before you, namely their e-mail addresses and names.

As the messages get forwarded along, the list of addresses builds, and builds, and builds, and all it takes is for some poor sap to get a virus, and his or her computer can send that virus to every e-mail address that has come across his computer. Or, someone can take all of those addresses and sell them or send junk mail to them in the hopes that you will go to the site and they will make five cents for each hit. That's right, all of that inconvenience over five cents.
------------------------------ ------------------------
How do you stop it? Just follow these easy steps:
------------------------------ ------------------------
(1) When you forward an e-mail, DELETE all of the other addresses that appear in the body of the message (at the top). That's right, DELETE them. Highlight them and delete them, backspace them, cut them, whatever it is you know how to do. It only takes a second.

You MUST click the 'Forward' button first and then you will have full editing capabilities against the body and headers of the message. If you don't click on 'Forward' first, you won't be able to edit the message at all.
------------------------------ ------------------------
(2) Whenever you send an e-mail to more than one person, do NOT use the To: or Cc: fields for adding e-mail addresses. Always use the Bcc: (blind carbon copy) field for listing the e-mail addresses.

This way the people you send to will only see their own e-mail address. If you don't see your Bcc: option, click on where it says To: and your address list will appear. Highlight the address and choose
Bcc: and that's it, it's that easy. When you send to Bcc: your message will automatically say 'Undisclosed Recipients' in the 'To:' field of the people who receive it
------------------------------ -------------------- ----
(3) Remove any 'FW:' in the subject line. You can re-name the subject if you wish or even correct spelling.

------------------------------ ------------------------
(4) ALWAYS hit your Forward button from the actual e-mail you are reading. Ever get those e-mails where you have to open 10 pages to read the one page with the information on it? By Forwarding only the actual page you wish someone to view, you eliminate the need for them to open those many, many e-mails just to see what you sent. In many
Instances, the recipient will just delete your message instead of opening all those extra pages. If you, as the sender, wont take the time to delete all those forwarded pages, why should the recipient have to open all of them just to get to the basic document?
------------------------------ -----------------------
(5) Have you ever gotten an e-mail that is a petition? It states a position and asks you to add your name and address and to forward it to 10 or 15 people or your entire address book. The e-mail can be forwarded on and on and can collect thousands of names and email addresses.

A FACT: The completed petition is actually worthless except to a professional spammer because of the wealth of valid names and e-mail addresses contained therein. If you want to support the petition, send it as your own personal letter to the intended recipient. Your position may carry more weight as a personal letter than a laundry list of names and e-mail address on a petition. (Actually, if you think about it, who's supposed to send the petition in to whatever cause it supports? And
Don't believe the ones that say that the e-mail is being traced, it just ain't so!)

------------------------------ ------------------------
(6) 'Send this e-mail to 10 people and you'll see something great run across your screen.DON'T
------------------------------ ------------------------
(7) Before you forward an Amber Alert, or a Virus Alert, or some of the other 'alerts' floating around nowadays, check them out before you forward them. Most of them are junk mail that's been circling the net for YEARS! Just about everything you receive in an e-mail that is in question can be checked out. Just go to

Reusable Bags

Most people are into the trend of recycling,
reusing, going green, and so on.

It seems that everyone is selling their own recyclable
bags for around 99 cents.
Of course you can make your own and it will be free or almost free.

IKEA has a large bag for just 59 cents
I thing that works perfect for those large items and frozen ones too.

I have not gotten into using recyclable bags in the grocery stores but, I did buy a couple of them.
Believe me I have a lot of cloth bags that I have gotten free
from Companies that I already use.
I use mine for different actives such as
returning library books,holding coupons and weekly flyer's, AWANA items, and Note books that I am working on at that time.

I hope you enjoy the bags as much as me.

Back from California and Navada

I was so exacted to see grocery stores
that I had heard about on blogs.
Winco foods was one that I went to in Reno
and one in Sacramento, their prices
were very reasonable. Raleys and Rite Aid
were there also but, I didn't get a chance to
stop by.

Randalls

I just bought 2- 12 packs of soda
at Randalls
and got 2 - 12 pack for free plus a
free 24 pack of water bottles.

My total was 11.58 plus tax
just a little over 2.31 each
not bad knowing that
I needed to buy sodas
for a party anyway.
