Old Navy: Last day for $10 jeans sale! Plus, Save with "Super Cash" and Coupons!

Today's the last day for the $10 jeans sale at Old Navy!  Plus, you can get $10 Old Navy "Super Cash" for every $25 you spend!  (You can use the Super Cash September 9, 2012 through September 12, 2012.)  And keep an eye out for great clearance deals - reader Caitlyn found a shirt for .87¢ and jeans for her hubzy for $4!

I love to find deals on clothes at thrift/consignment stores or yard sales, but as the kids get older, jeans are harder to find in good shape!  I just did this deal for 2 of my kids a couple days ago.....
bought 5 pair for $50
- a $10/$50 coupon
and got $20 back in Super Cash*
= $6 a pair for brand new (cute!) jeans!

*and that Super Cash will give me a great excuse to go buy something for myself after successfully getting the kids all back-to-school, lol!  ;)

Here are a few ways to save extra with coupons:

• OfficeMax is printing out $10/$50 coupons with a receipt
• check in on Foursquare (smart phone app - thanks Caitlyn!) to get $10/$50
• check RetailMeNot for a coupon code online or a printable coupon

Remember that the "Super Cash" offer is only available in-store, but if you buy them online you can still get $10 jeans, save $10/$50, AND get 7% cash back if you go through Shop At Home!

Target: Weekly deals (8/5 - 8/11/12) and Wrap-Up! Cheap diapers, cheap socks, up to 70% off Clearance!

I finally made it to Target today and scored some really good deals!  There was quite a bit of clearance at my store (shoes and clothes 50-70% off), so keep your eyes peeled! 
These were my favorite deals that go through Saturday.....


Hanes Socks (10-12pk) - $6 - $6.49
- $5/3 Hanes coupon in Target ad
= as low as $4.33 a pk!
(I paid .36¢ a pair for my girls socks - best deal I've found yet!)
*also a .75¢/1 Hanes Target printable here

Scotch tape - .49¢
- .50¢/1 Target printable
= FREE!
(my store was out, so I plan on trying to price match at Walmart)

RoseArt Colored Pencils (12ct) and Markers (10ct) - .49¢
*FREE 24ct. crayons with purchase
{deal scenario}
Buy 3
- $1/3 RoseArt MQ (7/29 RP or printable, no longer available)
= .49¢ for 3!  (or FREE if the crayons count as an item! I didn't think to check when I was there)

Luvs big-pack diapers - $16.99
*FREE $10 gift card wyb 2
- $1/1 Target coupon (7/29 RP)
= as low as $10.99 a box (I only had 1 coupon, so for a sz. 3 and sz. 4 box I paid .11¢ a diaper!)

{These 2 lunch time goodies were in the $1 section....a 24pk of lunch box notes, and a sandwich cutter will add a lot of fun to the kiddles lunches}

{Clearance - retails for $127.91...Pd. $41.22....average 68% off}

{The rest of the haul}

Kohl's $10 off $10 Coupon - Expired? No problem! (AND a Wrap-Up with a 96% Savings!)

Did you get the $10 off $10 coupon from Kohl's in the mail?  I got one yesterday and they're one of my favorite things to find in the mailbox!  =)

I've mentioned before how much I love Kohl's and how they allow the use of expired Kohl's Cash (for us forgetful people, lol)!  A few weeks ago I went into Kohl's to use a $10/$10 card, but I also had a couple expired $10/$10 coupons that I couldn't let go of....just hoping that I could still use them.

Since I had such a good experience with the expired Kohl's Cash, I decided to ask if I could use the expired $10/$10 coupons....the cashier said no problem!!  AND she let me use all three on one purchase!

I was able to get my daughter a pair of shorts, 4 undergarments, and 2 tanks for me (that are "regular", but will work great for my maternity belly too!)...all for $2.79!!

Retail Price: $77.61
Sale Price: $32.79
- Three $10/$10 Q's: $30
Final Price = $2.79!!  Saved 96%!

Obviously, this policy may be vary from store to store, but it is definitely worth asking about!!  There was something that rang up wrong and a manager helped me to get it straightened out -- even after voiding and re-ringing it 4 times because of computer trouble, he never mentioned that there was any problem with using multiple $10/$10 cards either!  That makes me think it's probably a chain-wide policy.  This makes the procrastinator in me really happy!  =)

Target Daily Deal: Women's Nursing Bras - 2 pk. for $13 + FREE Shipping! Today!

Check out this good deal on nursing bras!  Today, get a 2-pk of Gilligan & O'Malley nursing bras for only $13 Shipped! (regularly $22) They look very comfy and you have a choice of 4 different colors.

From the reviews, it looks like they may run a little on the small size, so I might be ordering a size up when I order mine.


(thanks Thrifty Wifey!)
