They're doing it again. Kashi is giving away free samples. Choose between cinnamon cereal and a peanutty granola bar

. I chose the bsr. I've had the cereal before and it was okay, but I've been waiting to try the bar and actually almost purchased a box last week.

 Glad I waited in case I don't like it.

I just can't imagine what the dog must be feeling/thinking!

Memo to myself: Starting tomorrow; July 2 - 4, Burger King will have their Original Chicken Sandwich on sale for $1.04 in celebration of the 4th of July!

Lately I've been watching that Extreme Couponing show, where the 'coupon queen' purchases hundreds  of dollars worth of product but pays only a minute percentage of the actual cost due to her strategic use of coupons. Her goal is usually to purchase a certain amount of products and spend only a limited amount of money for that purchase. For example, one woman wanted to be able to feed her family of 6 for the entire summer, but use only $50 to do it. Well, the show never really explains in any great detail, how they are able to do that but now thanks to this website I understand a little better.
 The most notable tip I got there was that Bigger isn’t Always Better, and  most of the time it is more cost effective to purchase the smallest size allowable because you will save more and may even be able to get travel size products for free if the coupon does not exclude it.
