Sunday Coupon Preview: March 14

Time to take a peek at this week’s coupons!  You will find 2 inserts this weekend, Red Plum and Smart Source.  I always like to know what I’m in for so I can plan ahead.  Remember that just because you aren’t using a coupon THIS week….you may be able to pair it up with a great sale in the weeks to come.

Sunday Coupon Preview: March 7

You will definitely want to plan ahead this week for collecting your Sunday inserts!  See the Coupon Preview to get a look at what is in store!  This week you will find the Biggest P&G insert EVER.  Over $162 in savings!  P&G is using this month’s insert as a chance to donate to the Children’s Safe Drinking Water program through PUR.  Please take a minute to read more about this. Interested in collecting a large number of inserts this weekend but not really wanting to spend loads of money?  Here are some ideas to help you round up your weekend fix of coupons!

Target Mobile Coupons

Because you just can’t have enough ways to gather coupons!! Now at Target.com you can sign up for coupons delivered straight to your cell phone once a month for FREE (you will be charged as you would for any text message).  Sign Up Here and within two weeks you will get your first set of coupons.

I got mine the other day and they are GREAT coupons including:

$1/1 Kraft Cheese

$3/1 The Fragrence Collection by Glade

$0.75/1 M&Ms

$1/1 Planters Food Product

$0.75/1 Crest Toothpaste or Oral B Manual Toothbrush

You can use each of these coupons once by having the cashier scan the barcode on your phone at checkout.  The “balance” or unused coupons remain active until you use them or the expiration date… you do NOT have to use them all at one time!  It appears to me that these are TARGET coupons and therefore STACKABLE which makes them even better!  I haven’t used mine yet but a friend did and assured me that they work great.

What do you think? Have you used them yet?  Leave a comment and let us know!

Weekly Menus: February 28 – March 6

Friday night Eric and I ordered out Chinese food.  This was the first time in a month that we ordered out, and truth be told I never really made it to the grocery store this week.  I made a quick trip for green onions and milk..so I didn’t feel like we were stepping out of our budget lines by ordering out.

Know what?  It didn’t taste very good, and I got an upset stomach about an hour later.  That is not saying it wasn’t good food…I usually LOVE the place we ordered from… what it IS saying…is that I now remember what happens when I stick to my menu planning and cook for my family.  My taste buds return.  I’m more discerning about what I eat and I’m more sensitive to fats/oils/salt in restaurant food.

Let’s not pretend this will make me stop wanting to eat out.  It does, however, reinforce my resolve to cook for my family at home.

Sunday – Sloppy Joes, French Fries, carrot sticks

Venison burger from our freezer and manwhich from a can.  I purchased some on sale at Dillon’s about two weeks ago.  I have french fries in the freezer that I bought on deep discount, with a coupon.  I have enough to last us for like 4 months I think.  I will need to buy hamburger buns.

Monday – Skillet Ziti with Chicken and Broccoli

I keep different kinds of pasta on hand, I buy it up whenever I get a good coupon/sale so I have some penne in the pantry I’ll use for this.  Chicken was purchased at Target last week.  Normally I would use fresh broccoli but as I’m buying a larger amount of fresh produce this week I may use frozen… I’ll see how my grocery bill looks.  I have Roasted Red Peppers in the pantry as well.  I will need to buy some cream.

Tuesday- Tilapia w/dill, baked red potatoes, asparagus

I have Tilapia left in the freezer from a purchase at Aldi about a month ago that I’ll use for this.  Dill is dried from our garden this past summer.  I will buy red potatoes and asparagus this week.

Wednesday – Marinated Chicken Breasts, fried rice w/vegetables

As simple as tossing some chicken breasts in Italian dressing for a couple of hours then cooking on the stove.  I got the dressing as part of a “buy 10″ sale deal at Dillon’s several weeks ago and I stocked up on Chicken at Target last week.  Fried Rice is a Weight Watchers recipe that we really like and I always keep rice on hand!

Thursday – Leftovers

Friday - Sticky Chicken, homemade biscuits, green beans

- Yes, I’m STILL using whole chickens that I bought at Target this summer at rock bottom prices.  I only have a few left, I’m going to have to keep an eye out for more!  Homemade biscuits are made with staples we keep around the house and I will buy some fresh green beans this week if they look good.

Saturday – Homemade Pizza

- Leftover Sticky chicken cut up will be a great addition to the pizza, I’ve got turkey pepperoni from the LAST pizza we made (its a favorite around here), I will need to buy some cheese, olives, artichokes, green pepper and mushrooms.  This one is going to be a doozie!

So what does my shopping list look like?

Asparagus

Green Beans

Red Potatoes

Bananas

Cuties

Hamburger Buns

Bread

Rice Milk

Artichokes

Green Pepper

Mushrooms

Black Olives

Half and Half
