Typo on Smiths ad

so if you are like me and was super excited to see cereal for forty eight cents a box, then like me you will be disappointed to learn that it was a typo and cereal is two ninetynine a box.

however, there are still some killer deals at smiths so check out grocerysmarts lists and have fun shopping. i stocked up on powerades, sunnyd, sobes, and sodas. no one will be thirsty at my house.


btw if you are wondering why my grammar is so horrible i am typing this on my phone.

Busy Busy Busy

I feel like I am always apologizing for the lack of posts and for that I am truly sorry, but life has been so hectic lately that even though I have been scoring some great deals I haven't had the time to share any of them.

Some of the things that have been keeping me busy are:
1. a trip to Idaho for a week
2. Our ward being dissolved and we were realigned into a new ward. I was the first counselor in the Primary presidency and didn't lose my calling (there are currently two first counselors) and there are 90 kids in the primary so we have been trying to figure out all of the logisitics of that.
3. My daughter was in her first dance concert at Cashman Field, and we had rehearsals every Friday, dance class every Saturday and the week of the show we had rehearsal Wednesday, Thursday, and then Friday was the show, then on Saturday my cousin was married.
4. On top of all of this I just found out that I am expecting our final baby! I am only six weeks along and am EXHAUSTED! Literally I could sleep all of the time.

Life has finally calmed down and looking at the ads this week there are some killer deals, if I were I would be checking out Grocery Smarts tomorrow (especially the Smith's ad) and check here throughout the day where at some point I will be putting together a list of my picks!

Free Tortillas at Albertsons

Mission Tortillas are on sale at Albertson's for 1.49, and in this Sunday paper there were coupon doublers for Albertson's and in the Smart Source in that same Sunday paper there is a coupon for .75/1 Mission Flour Tortillas. When you combine both that coupon and the doubler at Albertson's it makes the tortillas FREE! I picked up 4 of them yesterday all for free!

RJ Issues

I have been meaning to do this post for AGES! I get calls and emails all the time about having issues or questions about their papers. Unfortunately, most of the time I can't really help since I don't technically work for the paper. I simply process your orders. Once they are turned in, they are out of my hands. However, I understand the frustration that can come if your papers aren't delivered properly (we NEED our coupons dang it!), or you have issues upon renewal. After some research, I found that the RJ online is SO easy and a great way to ease those frustrations. Below is a little tutorial on how to register online and manage your account. I really hope this helps! Thanks!!

Step #1 - Go to www.lvrj.com and click on the link at the to of the page that reads "Subscribe or Manage your account"

Step #2 - Click to Register

Step #3 - Locate your account by entering in 2 pieces of information. You don't even need your account number! Just try your phone number and/or house number and/or zip and/or last name. Any 2 will do. Then enter your email address and create a password. Super easy!!

Step #4 - Managing your account. When all your info pulls up you should have 2 accounts. The first is your account if you already had one before adding more Sunday papers. If you signed up at a class, this is your $45.50 account. The next account is for you additional Sunday Only papers at $19.50 each.
Now, the cool part!! On the left side (circled in red) are some really neat options.
Vacation holds - remember how the paper doesn't have coupons on holidays? Just click on that tab and set your delivery date you want for the hold (the next one will be July 4th). SUPER simple, right?!
Service Issues - You can send them a note if your paper came delivered wet, late, or was missing the coupon inserts or heaven forbid they delivered the wrong amount of papers. You can even send a message to the carrier. So handy - and I am pretty sure this is a new option.

I sure hope this helps! Happy Couponing everyone!!
