Tune-In Tuesday!

One of the reasons couponing is so great, is because you can get yourself in a position to help others!  You can donate to your local food bank, women’s shelters and even donate to the troops overseas- all with items you got for super cheap or even free!  It doesn’t cost you anything but your time to serve.

This video shows my stockpile- I thought it was about time for you guys to see it.  Keep in mind that everyone’s stockpile sizes are totally different depending on the size of the family, the space they have and what they are trying to do with it.

I was able to donate items from my own stockpile and other Utah Freebies2Deals Readers were able to do so too so we could help out the Utah Food Bank!  So, when you know you won’t be able to use an item before it expires, make sure you donate to those who need it.  Summer time is one of the worst times for Food Banks because no one donates!  They are running out of food all over the country.

(If you can’t see the video, you can watch it here instead.)

THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED.

This is probably the video people are looking forward to the most. So I really hope it helps clear up any confusion on how to use coupons at Walgreens and combine them with Register Rewards. Enjoy! (After watching the video back, I realized how much noise was all around us. Sorry! I’ll have to work on my videotaping skills. LOL)

**To clarify, if you have more coupons than items, you need to purchase a “filler” item.  It can be items that you don’t have coupons for. Or, you can find cheap things like a $.09 pencil to fill in the item to coupon ratio gap.

I know there are a lot of you who are brand new to couponing and may feel a little overwhelmed or intimidated by how to use coupons and how to use them at different stores- because every store has different rules.  It can get confusing too!  So, today’s Tune-In Tuesday Video is all about How to use Coupons at Target!  I’m using this week’s ad to show you what is allowed, what isn’t allowed, how to stack coupons, and also how to use coupons on the in-store deals.  So, if you are new to couponing, this video is perfect for you!  And, if you are a seasoned vet, it could be a good refresher course.

But, most importantly, always take the NEW Target Coupon Policy with you each time you go to the store.  It will help you when you are in a bind, or need help with a cashier who does not know the coupon policy.

(If you cannont see the Tune-In Tuesday Video below, head over here to watch it instead.)


I’m hoping to do a “How to Coupon at Walgreens” next week if the deals are good examples!! So stay tuned for next week’s video!

I personally think that beer rebates are one of the coolest things out there for saving money.  And, there are 14 states that actually do NOT require a beer purchase.  (Al, AR, CT, HI, IN, KY, ME, MO, NC, NJ, NY, OK, UT AND WV) Depending on the rebate, you could score amazing rebate deals on everything from meat, fresh produce, seafood, and grill items.

Summer is a HUGE time for Beer Rebates.  So, if you haven’t heard of them, or want to know how to use them, make sure to check out the video below!  Hopefully I am getting better at the videos- bear with me! :)

Last week, I asked everyone on the Freebies2Deals Facebook page what kinds of things they would like help with.  And, since most people learn visually, I thought it might be a good idea to start back up my videos that I used to do when I first started the Freebies2Deals site.  I think that will help everyone learn how to use coupons and all of the other tricks that are hard to explain just by typing!

So, I hope you are excited because tomorrow, June 7th will be our First “Tune-In Tuesday” Video Series!  Each week, I’ll do a video that helps explain more about coupons, finding deals and other money-saving ideas.

If you didn’t weigh in on Facebook, leave a comment here of what kinds of things you are having a hard time with and what videos you would like to see! 

**Oh, and if you haven’t seen previous videos, you can head over to the Freebies2Deals Facebook page and click on the YouTube Button on the left side to see all of them!
