Start Planning!!

OK -- SUPER excited about the NEXT Roundy's flier - that starts on Thursday! It would be PERFECT if they would do a double-double day, but I will settle with what they have and work around it
=)

First of all, the General Mills Cereal Deal is back! Buy 6, get $10 instantly AND get the FREE milk and egg vouchers totaling $5.

BONUS offer right now - Buy $20 of Participating General Mills Products, With Roundy’s Card, Get $5 in Free Gas Via Mail-in Rebate.

Say it with me; MONEY MAKER WEEK!

Here is my plan:

6 boxes Cinnamon Burst Cheerios @$4 a box, add something like a pound of ground beef.
Use SIX $1/1 Cheerios (from 2/13 paper) and 5 will double. Also use the $1 off meat coupon from last weeks Old El Paso Deal.
$26 - $10 Instantly - $12 in coupons = $4, but GET $5 in milk/eggs and $5 in gas to result in a $6 MONEY MAKER!

I will do this SIX times and donate the cereal to the food pantry and come out $36 ahead.

THEN, I will go back and get milk, eggs, 4-5# apples, 2#chicken ($.99/#) and some:
Ronzoni Pasta @ $1.00
I will by 10 and use five $1/2 from 1/23 Smart Source insert
Final price: Ten free after doubled coupon**
**Watch this coupon carefully as it will likely only double up to an additional $0.79 as the full price of the pasta is something like $1.79. If that happens ask for the additional $0.21 to be manually taken off as you did buy 2 products totaling $2.00 so the doubled coupon is not removing more than what you paid.

These transactions should run me about $5-10 each when I am done and I will restock my pasta, make apple butter and apple pie, and have chicken to make dishes for my next meal swap!

Yes, I LOVE playing the grocery store game - how about you?

If you don't have enough cereal coupons - RUN to www.thecouponclippers.com and get a few before they are gone! $.12 each to save $2 is a fair trade off.

Happy Shopping!

Cookie Exchange Parties are SO MUCH FUN - for a few simple reasons:You get together with your friends You make only ONE kind of cookie and finish your holiday baking, after swapping out You get new recipes You often have snacks or games! That being said, I do one every year - in December, about 2 weeks before Christmas. (You can read about it HERE or see a TV segment I did on it http://youtu.be/-iUR7GlAiQw ). I thought it would be fun to have a collection of 30 fun recipes to try - one a day in November - so you can be prepared for that holiday baking!

Chili Dog Casserole

I know this sounds strange -- and yummy at the same time, LOL You need to know the family history to "get it". We are part German, part English, part Irish and part Tennessee Hillbilly. Seriously. Did you ever see that black and white movie of Gary Cooper's called Sergeant York? Yes, my family comes from the Dyer/Yorks -- same family. Some of the "family recipes" are too far out there for even me to try... But this is a pot luck favorite. SUPER Easy and SUPER Easy to make healthier. We choose the middle of the road option, LOL You need:  1 package hot dog buns (8 ct) 1 package hot dogs 2 cups chili (or 1 can) 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese "fixins" That's it! You could do gluten free or whole grain wheat buns, turkey or tofu dogs, vegetarian chili, vegan or light cheese, you get the drift. We do white buns, cut them up and place in the 9x13 pan, like you see here: Then you dice up the hot dogs
