FREE Stuff Thursday

• Have you ever bought an Entertainment book? These are great and can save you $100's of dollars each year! Great coupons for restaurants, movie theaters, entertainment AND most areas have high value GROCERY store coupons, too! (Cincinnati area has Meijer coupons!!). You can now get them for only $15 AND Free shipping! Would make a great Mother's Day or birthday gift!
• This is a great freebie! Also a great gift for your friends who are new or expecting moms. Enfamil LIPIL® Formulas. Free sample Click Here
• Get your FREE updated Jiffy recipe book here.
• Click here to request your FREE sample of Emergen-C Blue.
• FREE breastfeeding support kit for nursing moms (or pregnant women who are thinking about nursing - believe me, you'll need all the support you can get!)

• FREE Glad Flexforce grocery bag! Click Here.
• 500 full-color Business Cards only $1.99! That's the best deal I've seen in a long time. Did you know...Many stay-at-home moms are now carrying "calling" cards to exchange information with other moms they meet (to arrange playdates, carpooling, etc.). Very cool new trend and this sale is a great way to try it out for CHEAP! Also great if you or someone you know owns their own business...These are nice, high quality cards...

FREE "vintage" poster & wine rebate

I love wine, but I love FREE stuff and GREAT deals even more! Even if you are NOT a drinker, this deal is still a great one!

Redwood Creek wines has an ad campaign featuring a vintage, outdoorsy theme - it's very cool, although I'm making it sound a little cheesy (sorry). They are giving away, for FREE, very nice posters (see two examples at the top of this post). You can get one free per month, just for requesting it AND you can earn additional FREE posters by earning points (they call them "corks") by taking on-line surveys, submitting wine-related questions, etc. I have a collection of these and I framed them with a pretty-nice frame I got for a great deal at WalMart (Michael's has some REALLY nice frames, which of course, are on sale every-other month). I get compliments on these posters each time someone sees them (they are displayed in our finished basement).

ALSO, if you are a wine drinker, Kroger has a great deal on Redwood Creek wine this month. They are on sale ($5.99 - $6.99/bottle) AND they have a rebate right now $2/1 bottle OR $5/2 bottles OR $9/3 bottles! Look for tear pads around the wines and on an end cap....If you can't find them, ask the people who work in that department - they should have some for you.

FREE Johnson & Johnson soap!

Kroger, Walmart and Target currently carry Johnson’s Buddies Easy-Grip Sudzing Bars for 97¢-99¢. Use any of the following coupons to get them FREE!

$3 off 3 Johnson’s Products
$1 off 1 Johnson’s Buddies
$2 off 2 Johnson’s Shampoo, Conditioner or Buddies
$2 off 2 Johnson’s Buddies
Also, you can print each coupon twice by clicking the back button on your browser...so that makes a GRAND TOTAL of 16 FREE Buddies soaps!

My son loves these (my daughter is still a little too young for them), so I always stock up when I can. These also make great "basket" stuffers for Baby Showers (those infants do get bigger, you know) and if you have an infant or are pregnant right now - go ahead and stock up - these are great and obviously, don't have a "use by" date!

These are also great to donate to your local charity. Shelters for homeless families, Food Banks, mission trips, Children's homes, etc. Once again, an example of how the simple act of couponing can make the world a better place (what is better than a FREE donation?!)

Since Suave is on sale 2 for $3, I made $1 profit!
