FINANCE: Some Savings Bonds to stop gaining interest

Do you have any old US Savings Bonds stuck inside a lock box somewhere? Sometimes saving for a rainy day can earn you nothing and may even cost you money! It's time for you to dig up those old savings bonds and see which you may hold that will stop earning interest after June. To check which series you have and to find out how to redeem them, visit www.treasuryhunt.gov.

PAWS: Pet Supplies "Plus"

On Monday I was left home because of all the rain. But those people I take care of came home with a big bag full of surprises for me. I got to try out some new foods from Pet Supplies "Plus". I like to go to this store because they have noms like meaty bones, pig ears and rawhides down on a low shelf. I usually get in trouble because us pups can sniff out and lick for a quick sample when no one is looking. Now mostly when they take me I have to get in some kind of fake car that you push and not drive.

There were these little pieces of papers that I heard them call coupons or "drop it" when i run off with them. Apparently they get me all the good food and treats that I get to enjoy. Here's how much I heard them talking about what they saved.  

(8) Pro Plan cans were priced at $1.43 each minus four BOGO coupons
(1) Chef Michaels Dry food 4.5lb bag was priced at $4.48 minus one $3 off Qpon
This made it eight cans of different flavored meals and one bag of filet mignon flavored Chef Michaels for only $8.43 out of pocket and that's not included the other three sample food packs they gave out just for shopping. We always get a great deal there. They now even sell bakery items for us PAWS!

Anyway, I thought I'd share all the wonderful goodies they brought back to make up for me having to be home alone on a pet store trip. Something about me smelling like a wet dog makes them mad. Hope you get to go visit the store with your pets too.

DEAL: Pepsi Products

As you know, there is Super Doubles and also a good sale on Pepsi products at Harris Teeter this week. You buy two 12-pk fridge packs and get three free. BUT what is even better is that certain flavors have a $1 off sticker on them. These include Sunkist, Hawaiian Punch and Squirt in regular or diet flavors.

I purchased Pepsi, Sunkist, Hawaiian Punch, Squirt, and a new Mt. Dew flavor called Typhoon. They each rang up at $5.99 and then there was three deductions of the $5.99 plus $3 in coupons (no doubling as stated on the Q's). So I ended up getting 5 12-pks of Pepsi products for an out of pocket total of $9.91!

It's a great deal for Pepsi drinkers and remember you can mix and match any of their products such as Root Beer and Sierra Mist - this one had a coupon to buy two and get $1off. Don't forget your Vic card!

 

SAVINGS: Harris Teeter Deal of the Day

Ms. FindaBB herself (aka Mom/Grandma PAWS) needed to make a quick run into Harris Teeter tonight for just a couple of items and ended up browsing the aisles as always.  But as usual she came uup on a great deal. Let's see if I can easily repeat what she told me....

(4 boxes) Orville Redenbacker Popcorn. It was BOGO and she had (3) .75/1 and (1) .40 (out of pocket                                                                                                                                                                        
(1) Oscar Mayer Bacon. BOGO but she only had one coupon  .75/1 q (oop $1.25)
(3) Dawn Hand Renewal w/ Olay 19oz bottles  - on sale for $1.99 and using (3) .50/1 q's
(1) Dawn Pure Essentials 24oz bottle - Sale $1,94 - one q also at .50/1
(2) Dawn regular concentrated 10oz bottles using (2) .50/1 q's
(10) Mighty Dog cans - 10/$6 used (2) $3 off 5 cans which made them FREE

the out of pocket total was only $7.18

Remember at Harris Teeter any coupon less than $1 is doubled - that's how you save so much once you match up what you have in coupons with what you need in the pantry!
