Watch your ECB’s…

Just a warning before you head out for the big Sunday/Monday deals.  Watch your ECB’s on the Sally Hansen Nail Polish.  For me they rang up cheaper than the $5.99 and did not print any ECB!

Sadly I was at a store that had no idea how to do the new manual printing so I get to call CVS in the morning.

You can still buy them and they will be free, just be ready to make them manually give you the ECB’s or to have to call the Customer Service when you get home.

I didn’t buy everything that was free but most of the items and all the other ECB’s printed without problems.

    I have a question for you this morning.  Lots of other blogs find one deal and spot light each deal in it’s own post.  For example printable coupons.  I tend to find a group of them and highlight them.  Do you prefer a separate post on each great deal?

    Ex. The free Ouchless products at Kroger, has been part of the Kroger deals all week but is being spotlighted on other sites today?  Would it help to pull those out? It doesn’t make my job any harder just makes more posts for you to read…

    Now for a small soapbox…  I don’t get on these often so just ignore it if you want… This question comes after me getting a little miffed this morning on seeing a deal that I posted in the printable coupon list yesterday morning highlighted (even with the special instructions) in special posts on three other sites today but no credit here or to slickdeals where I had also posted how to print it.  I know we all forget (me included) to credit things or it seems so well known credit is not needed… but sometimes after working numerous nights in a row into the middle of the night it gets on your nerves…

    Thanks for any feedback and thanks for letting me vent.  Now back to your regularly scheduled deals!

      Printable Coupons

      Here are some great printable coupons:

      -$1.75 off any Reynolds Parchment paper printable (-thanks Anne)

      -.50/1 off any Tabasco product printable (or from side bar) (makes small size free at many stores)

      -.50/1 off any Tilex printable (or from side bar) (print and save for a sale)

      Various Foster Farms Chicken product printables not a brand in my area but maybe someone can use it

      $5 in Old Orchard Juice coupons by mail – register here

      -$1/2 any (2) Pillsbury products printable (IE) or printable (FF)

      Tip:  If something doesn’t print try using another browser to print it.  It is always best to print a coupon that you will use when you see it rather than waiting for when you will use it.  Odd’s are if you wait it won’t be there when you want it (or if you are like me you spend hours searching for it and never find it)

      -$1/2 any Philadelphia Cream Cheese printable (on sale at EVERY Southern Savers store this week!!)
      (This coupon is an individual link per person but… there is a way around this so you can print it!!  Attempt to print it, when it says you have already printed it there will be spots to email a friend.  Email yourself about the coupon and they will send you your own special link in a couple minutes!!)

            With the market that we are in there are going to be a lot of stores closing down some or all locations in the next few months.  While it is sad for the store, it does mean good deals for us.

            I am going to keep a running list of stores.  If you come across one share with us and I’ll add it, big or little stores it doesn’t matter as long as they are in the southeast.

            National Chains

            Circuit City – 155 stores
            Office Depot – 112 stores (only 8 in the south)
            Steve and Barry’s – all locations
            KB Toy Store – all locations
            Freidman’s, White Hall, and Crescent Jewelers – closing 363 remaining locations
            Linen & Things – all locations and down to the last days

            Local Stores

            South Carolina
            Tullulah – high end lingerie store currently up to 75% off – Columbia
            Sears Outlet Center – Columbia

                  Just in case you are getting your deals tonight and see strange things happening on the site…  I’m doing my best to be a web designer tonight.  Let’s cross our fingers that it all comes out good in the end.  I have big hopes.
