Its Wednesday...new grocery store deals! Here are the BIGI deals at Bi-Lo this week. Normally grocery store deals run Wednesday to Wednesday but with Thanksgiving coming up next week, this sale will run from Wednesday the 18th until Thursday the 26th. Also, don't forget Bi-Lo will automatically double your coupons when the coupon is valued at .60 or less.

Its Thrifty Thursday!

BIG big CVS news. My sister and I were told about the "possibility" of this promotion a few months back and were very excited about it. This is free ECB's people, just for using a reusable shopping bag which most of us already do. CVS is going green and starting this week near the register at your local CVS there will be a green tag leaf tag that attaches to your shopping bag, much like a luggage tag.

Just attach it to your favorite bag and go shopping!

Everytime you make a CVS purchase the cashier will scan your tag and every 4th time it is scanned you will earn a $1 ECB, just for shopping with your bag. The ECB will print on your receipt just like normal! I can't wait, this will look so cute on my pink shopping bag I got for Breast Cancer Awareness month!

There is alot of free stuff to be had this week, here are a few highlights!

WALGREENS

3 Character Bandaids $1.99

Inexpensive filler item (I like the .17 Haloween cups) .17

use coupon from Walgreens Childrens activity book $2.00

The computer will take coupon off each bandaid, so you owe just tax and the amount of your filler item!

**You must have a filler item because when the coupon is taken off they owe you money and that won't work, the more inexpensive your filler item is the less you pay overall**

Ragu Spaghetti Sauce/Skippy Peanut Butter/Bertolli Frozen Meals *Buy 8, get $8RR back, buy 6, get $4 RR*

I love this deal! You could use this to get enough spaghetti sauce and peanut butter to last a long time! I am not advacating cleaning them out, but at my house we go through ALOT of peanut butter so these deals make me very happy! Here is the deal lay out!

**Click here to print out a rebate form good for $3 back when you purchase Skippy Peanut Butter AND It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!**

So, you get 8 jars of peanut butter and 8 jars of spaghetti sauce for $13.13 in cash out of pocket. You get back $8 in RR which reduces your cost to $5.13 or .32 per jar. = I know your thinking you don't need this much and if not, then mix it up to get what you need. Stock up while its at a good price!
