Years ago, I participated in a Neilson study and had such fun sharing my ideas and opinions. Honestly, I do not particularly appreciate the way many marketing and product avenues are going, and I felt this was one way I could contribute and get some free things for my family as well. I have no idea how quickly you can earn things now, but one of my friends just received her home scanner and is excited to start sharing her opinions about products.

It’s September 1st, which means some new coupons have loaded at Coupons.com and around. I just finished printing out my favorites and you won’t be disappointed.
Here’s just a sampling of what I will use this month.
Ol El Paso taco seasoning is OFTEN priced at $1 or under. Use this Old El Paso Coupon at a store that doubles and you can get this for free or nearly free if your store doesn’t double.
As much as I love making home made pizza, I admit, we eat frozen more often. Easy and quick…Digiorno’s is one of our favs, especially with a Digiorno’s coupon.
Six months ago, I stockpiled about 30 bags of frozen veggies. We use them all the time, but they are GONE. (Gasp) I’ve been waiting for a great BOGO free sale and this coupon will be perfect. (There are three other Green Giant coupons, so just look around)
I am ending with the best coupon of all. $5 off of FIVE Kraft Products. Print now because this will not last long. This past week, I actually went into the fridge and had NO cheese. I had to buy some without a good sale. That is the number one Stockpiling 101 error. Well, Walmart, Publix, Target and Harris Teeter all have cheese on sale for $2. Use this coupon and you can get it for $1/piece.
Meijer – Buy 10 Kraft Chunk Cheese (8 oz) @ $1.67 each
Use two $5.00/5 Kraft Cheese or Dairy
Pay $6.67 and get a $5.00 checkout coupon valid on your next order
Yes, paying $1.67 for 10 packages of Kraft Chunk Cheese after coupons and catalina promotion is unbelievable. We don’t have Meijer in NC, but it’s almost worth the drive. lol. (thx to Mercedes commentors)
Safeway Kraft Cheese is on sale for $1.69 with in ad coupon and $10 minimum purchase. Use this $5/5 coupon and get them for only $0.69 ea! There is a limit of 3 at the $1.69 price so you’ll have to buy 2 other items that may or may not be on sale. I’d suggest looking for the Philadelphia Cream Cheese, which could be a great filler item.
Does anyone know any other store that Kraft is on sale? I’ll update it. Make sure you hit the back button when printing coupons. You may print two.
