I’d like to introduce Jay. He’s a man. He coupons. And he and his buddies call themselves The Coupon Craftsmen... He’ll be doing the Saturday Savings Report for us for awhile – enjoy!

Hello all, Jay here from Newcrazydeals.com . Well, we went all out shopping today. The in-laws (more like outlaws) will be with us for a week before Christmas, and some family friends the week after Christmas, so we’re stocking up.

We made a trip to Publix and Bi-Lo. Total for the trip before savings… $400.69. Out of pocket cost… 180.88. For our family of five alone, this would be about a month of food.

Just a sampling of the goods we got…14 boxes of cereal, 18 boxes of various flavors of scalloped potatoes, a Turkey, 2 chickens, a large ham, lots of biscuits/cinnamon rolls/crescent rolls, canned goods, 2 qts of ice cream, 4 pizzas…. we had the car LOADED down.

Hello, Jay here from New Crazy Deals. With this Thanksgiving week here, I had to buy a good bit of stuff that wasn’t a great deal but it still came out pretty good. Checkout was $132 before bonus card and coupons. We paid $80, a savings of $52!

As you can see we got a good variety of things, from Turkey to Peanut Butter. The veggie tray and the $25 worth of un-couponed cheese for my famous homemade tons of cheese mac and cheese set us back a bit, but when I was stuffed on the couch on Thanksgiving watching football, it was all worth it.

Jay here, from New Crazy Deals, with your Saturday Savings Report. Today, instead of showing you what we perfectly organized couponers (like we all are) got this week, I’m going to speak of what happens when you’ve missed something.

It happens to the best of us, we let our stockpile run down and we’re out of something. What do we do now?  With how we now value a dollar after couponing, it’s hard to go pay full price for something we know we can get so much cheaper. This hit me this week as my wife dragged me into Dollar Tree to look at Christmas decorations. I walked by and saw this….

This whole rack of V05 and White Rain shampoos, conditioners, and body washes, along with some other “house” brands, were all only $1 per bottle. There were a lot of other great bargains for everyday items in the store. They may not be the top brands that we’ve gotten spoiled by with our couponing prowess, but they’re great for the price and will get you by until your brand goes on sale again. So next time you need that item, and don’t have a coupon, don’t forget to check out your local dollar stores.
