*FAKE* Coupon Alert

Just an FYI.  This EXTREMELY HIGH VALUE Coupon is a FAKE.  It has come to my attention that people are trying to use it at my Walmart, and it’s also been making its way around other places.  This coupon is FRAUDULENT and should NOT be used for any reason.  Let’s coupon the right way!  Be honest and you will save so much money and keep your good reputation!!!

There are a few clues that should let you know that this is a likely fraudulent coupon:

• It is “high value” – $8 off Huggies is a REALLY big coupon. They just don’t make these.
• They are sent in a PDF format and do not come from the manufacturer.
• They just don’t “look” right.
• There are multiple coupons in the PDF from different manufacturers.

If you ever have any questions about coupons please go to the  CIC (coupon information center) and look at the fraudulent coupon list and see if they are on there.

Diapers Stockpile

I want to show you a trip I made to Walmart not too long ago.  As you see in this picture I bought 20 packs of diapers.  Wow!  Yeah, I know.  But thankfully because I bought them from Walmart I did NOT clear the shelves.  They were super stocked and I did not feel bad about taking buying that many!  Like you have read in my Stockpiling post, stockpiling is different for every family.  For me, I have 3 kids, one in diapers full time and the other two in diapers at night.  So 20 packs of diapers doesn’t last very long for me.  When diapers go on sale, you better believe I get as many as I have coupons for!  Thanks to a great friend Malissa, who gives me all of her baby coupons, I was able to come up with 20 $3/1 any pack of Huggies Diapers coupons!  I love Huggies because they frequently come out with high value coupons.

Here is the deal I did.

Price Matched Babies R Us price at $5 a pack of Huggies Jean Diapers

Bought 20 packs

Total Due $100

Used 20 $3/1 Huggies Diapers

Final Cost $40

That’s only $2 a pack!!!

Now you don’t think I’m so crazy for buying all these diapers do ya?

*On another note, Babies R Us was actually running a better promotion than what I got.  They had a gift card deal with this.  For every two packs you bought, they gave you a $5 Gift Card!  So, if I had done this deal at Babies R Us instead of Ad Matching it at Walmart, I would have MADE MONEY!
