Contesting Monday with a Twist!

Welcome to Contesting Monday! Hopefully a few giveaways (or more than a few) will bring joy to your day!

So here is the deal. I will start you guys off with a giveaway and then you put yours, or your finds, into Mr. Linky. If you are hosting a giveaway or have a post about someone's giveaway just leave a link. Make sure this link is to the giveaway post itself and not just the blog or it will be deleted. If you listed it last week but your giveaway is still open, list it again! Also your link must be to something family friendly or it will be deleted.

We are starting off with a giveaway all of my own. Isn't this cute. I am giving away this cute coupon holder (and if you want to read what is in it and how I did it, read this post) as part of Bloggy Giveaway's Carnival. All you have to do is comment on this post telling me what kind of information you would like to see here (coupons, sample, tips, what?). Make sure that you include your email so I can get hold of you if you win!

Then I am giving away some cute girl's fabric covered clips on my main blog, NerdFamily Blog.

I have a Pampered Chef giveaway at NerdFamily Food and a scrapbooking giveaway at NerdFamily Things.

Now add your contests to Mr. Linky one at a time, go enter some contests and tell them Contesting Monday sent you! (For all of you who are here because of Bloggy Giveaways, we do this every week so come back every Monday!)

Frugal Gift for Frugal People

Cute isn't it? This is a gift coupon holder. I have heard for years about people who want to start using coupons but find it to intimidating to start. So here is a good cheap way to get them going. To start with I got a plastic organizer from Walmart for less than $4 (watch the sales). Then I got these cute embellishments on clearance that are just peel and stick.

Then I took my label maker and made some easy categories. Then I give them a running start with some coupons. In this one I put in some EPT coupons, Cottonelle, Pillsbury internet coupons (like Grands, sugar cookies, and pizza dough), Totinos and more! So for half and hour and less than $10 bucks you have a sweet little gift!

Maximize Your Toner and Check

I know its an odd headline but it made you curious didn't it;)? Before you spend precious time printing gobs of coupons make sure the stores you shop at take Internet Coupons. I know, it is a sad thought but often a reality. And don't be sure that the stores will know the chain's policy.

There are a few ways to find out if your chosen store takes Internet Coupons. Some stores like Walmart have a coupon policy online but not all of their employees know it (yes, they take them) and will fight with you about it. With some stores, like Riteaid, it varies by store so you need to call over and speak to the store manager. Then there are other stores, like Winco, that do not take any Internet Coupons.

So how does this influence my behavior? Well, RiteAid is running a wonderful free after rebate sale. I found another blog that had a bunch of printables for those same items. Before I printed them I called my RiteAid and found out that they wouldn't take them (Clovis and Kings Canyon for you locals). I saved my self money and paper by checking before I printed.

I do a lot of my grocery shopping at Winco so I don't print off every coupon I find. Just ones that will justify a trip to another grocery store. Frankly, the Winco store brand is usually a better price than a brand with the coupon (but that is another post).

So just check before printing to make sure you are Keeping Money!
