Inbox Dollars

Inbox Dollars is one of those programs where you do a bunch of little, easy things to start collecting money! You won't get rich over night but you will collect a little mad money! I often earn on these programs all year to get Christmas money/ gift cards. You get $5 just for signing up!!! Can't go wrong with that!

Pampers Coupon

I often get asked where I get diaper coupons. Well, I sign up with manufacturers. Many of them have a club similar to the Pampers Village. I prefer Pampers so I always sign up with them as soon as I find out I am pregnant. If you are in the market for diapers go sign up with Pampers!

Home Depot Garden Club

Home Depot has a Garden Club. You can sign up to get on their newsletter for it. They send out deals and tips. And it is free. How can you beat that?

Groupon Hits Fresno

So I have been seeing the Groupon ad on Google and Facebook for quite a while now. I was getting curious as to whether they really have good coupons. They kicked off the Fresno Groupon today and started off well. They have $20 of Batter Up Pancakes for $8.

I like that you just take part in the deals you like and they email you to tell you when they are available. No fuss no muss. So go! Sign up for Groupon so you can get the emails! Now if only they have a great massage deal....

(I was not paid to post about Groupon but there is an affiliate link. Please use it, that helps slightly justify the hours I spend on the computer finding deals and such;)

Craft Store Discounts

Here in Fresno we really only have 2 craft stores, Michaels and Joann. I don't know about the rest of you, but I can blow quite a bit of money in these fine establishments;).

Now, I signed up for the paper ad from Joann's but it is tiring to shop by 1 40% off coupon at a time. Joann's does have some other deal opportunities! First you can sign up for their online newsletter. They will send you some coupons that are good only online but also many coupons that are printable to take in!

If you are an educator (yes, that means homeschoolers too!) you can sign up for an additional discount. You will get a 15% card that is good on your entire purchase, excluding things you used coupons on. That means you can use the 15% off sale and clearance items!!! You also get a 1 time 20% off an entire purchase coupon! You can sign up online for the educator's discount if you have an ein number (teachers) or hslda/peah number (homeschoolers). As homeschoolers, if you go into the store you just have to show them something. I used my Chea card. The educator discount is good for 1 year and then you just fill out the form again.

Michaels also have an online newsletter. You will get the ad emailed to you every week. They also have The Knack newsletter. This is for both teachers and educators. Usually it is just craft ideas but sometimes it includes additional coupons to!

Both Michaels and Joann's accept competitor's coupons. At Michaels it can take a while because they often need to do multiple purchases but Joann's just scans them all in on one purchase.

So what are you still doing here? Go sign up for your discounts and good crafting!

Target Coupons

There are some awesome Target coupons right now. They have a spot on their website that always has various coupons. But right now they have coupons for the holiday candy that has all gone on sale! For example the M&Ms are on sale half off and they have a $1 off coupon. That makes it quite a deal! They also have coupons for Ghiradelli and other special candy brands!

I have gotten other deals such as $1 off toddler bathroom wipes that they sell for 97 cents. So I have gotten them free!

So keep an eye on the Target coupons!

Ebates Black Friday!!!!!

For all of those who remember, I love Ebates!So I was stoked to find out that they are going to be doing a double cash back promo! Tie that in with all the online deals and you can save some serious $$$. If you haven't signed up for Ebates, run over and sign up. It is free and you get cash back for shopping! Just make sure you use mom@nerdfamily.com as your referring email!

Mimi Cafe

If you fill out a form to join Mimi Cafe's e-club they immediately send you a coupon for a free breakfast! My coupon is printing right now!!!!

Ebates: Best Deal on The Internet

Since we are all doing more and more shopping online, there is a tool we all need: Ebates. When you shop online you start at the Ebates home site. Then you look up whatever store that is on there and click to the store. You will get a percentage of your purchase back in cash. It is that simple. Then they will pay you either by check or paypal (I believe there is a time delay or fee associated with a check) once a quarter. They only pay out once you hit $5 but it will wait forever for you to hit it. My first $5 took over a year (before I did a lot of online shopping). You can still use any online coupons, deals, etc so you don't loose out. Ebates is something I have been doing for a few years and I have gotten over $120. If you sign up now you will get $10 (and yes, I will get $10 too). Sign up and if it doesn't get filled in for you, use my email as a reference (mom@nerdfamily.com).
