Reader Deals! TP at Walgreens/ Oreos at Walmart


Wow- you guys are awesome! Thanks for texting/ e-mailing/ facebooking with all the great deals you're finding! Here are two great ones:

Rita found Cottonelle double roll 4 pks clearanced to $.87 at her local Walgreens in Owasso, Okla. There are a few various $.50/1 or $1/2 coupons available from blinkies, tearpads, and one from the 8/23 insert. Even without a Q, this is a sweet deal on TP. Pair it with a Q for a steal! Hat tip to Rita!

Kristen found Strawberry Milkshake and Hot Fudge Sundae Oreos on sale at the Siloam Springs, Ark. Walmart for 2/$4. The best part? The packages had $1/1 peelies, making these Oreos only $1 per package! As Kristen reminded us, it's not a bad idea to stash away a few cheap snacks so that you'll have some on hand when you need to take goodies to an event, school party, etc. Hat tip to Kristen!

There were still lots left on the shelf at the Fayetteville Target.

A Few Frugal Musings


Hello, Frugal Muse readers. First, let me say thanks for your patience as I've been rather quiet on this blog during the last week and a half. We've been pretty busy with my husband's parents visiting from California!

Also, I've been taking some time to consider what to do with this blog. I launched The Frugal Muse back in March to help a few of my friends and family get started with couponing. I didn't imagine that so many of you would become regular readers. It's been so fun!

Over the past couple of weeks I've been trying to decide whether to keep the blog going or not. I had just about decided to give it a break for a while, but then this week I have run into several of you who have told me how much this blog has helped your families over the past few months. Even though there are a LOT of other frugal blogs available, it seems that this little corner of the blogosphere is still specifically helping lots of families. So for the time being, I'm going to keep it rolling.

With that said, on to more great deal posting! Thanks for being great readers!
