Celebrating my 1st year as a Blogger

Wow! Wow! Wow!

A year has passed and I have been the official blogger of Dirtcheapteach.blogspot.com.  I have enjoyed sharing my shopping, stories, and experiences with those of you who have followed me.  I look forward to another great money saving year in 2013.  I know that some days I don't get to post as much as I would like, but the complications of being a wife, parenting and teaching sometimes get in the way.  Look for more to come and thanks for allowing me to share parts of my life with you. 

Happy Blogging,

Dirtcheapteach

Merry Christmas

Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas.

Reduced Gift Cards with Swag Bucks

As of November 1st, for the rest of the year the Swagbucks Swag Store will be bringing you lower prices and limitless rewards. To break it down for you, all $5 gift cards will now be 500 Swag Bucks, $10 gift cards will be 1000 Swag Bucks, $25 Gift Cards will be 2500 Swag Bucks and so on. This excludes the $5 Amazon.com, which remains the bargain price of 450 SB.       

Now you get more bang for your (Swag) Bucks, and with your leftover Swag Bucks, you can now snag even more rewards, because our old monthly redemption limits (except the $5 Amazon.com Gift Card) will be gone. You’re still limited to 2 rewards per day, but you don’t have to worry about which prizes you’re redeeming, because Swagbucks just expanded your monthly SB budget!

Shopping @ Staples

 

 

Well shopping at Staples has its rewards.  I purchase most of my ink at Staples for printing school work and coupons.  Being a member of the Teachers Rewards Program at Staples I earn bonus bucks for the money I spend in store.  I was able to use my rewards and store coupons to score the items above.  I also received a special offer from Staples to try these new AVANT Style pens.  I will have to write a review later to tell how well I like them and voice my opinion.  Look forward to a later review on the AVANT Style pens.

Pet Peeve

I hate to walk into a store to find that the signage is all wrong.  I was so excited when I went to Dollar General and saw a 90% sign on a table filled with items I could use.  I believe Dollar General is the worst at grouping a lot of items together and once you get to the register you find that nothing is on sale except for a few items that were included on the table. As the cashier began to scan all the items the prices were not what I expected so of course I stopped him in his tracks and pointed to the table right behind me.  Then I got the usual spill, it's not everything on the table just a few selected items with green dots.  Of course, I didn't get any of the items I had chosen, but decided to go back to the table just to see what was on sale.  There wasn't one green dot item on the table.  I guess I will not be trying to purchase clearance items at Dollar General anytime in the future.

Shopping @ Publix

Not much to brag on since I took my husband to the store with me and he picked up several items that were not on the list.  My budget was $30, but we went way over.

Looking to stock up on popcorn, head over to Walgreen's where they have a great sale going on.  There is a double discount when you purchase ACT II popcorn.  The popcorn is on sale for BOGO free and there is also a coupon in this week's circular.  I purchased all 16 bags of popcorn for $2.06 this is including tax.  Wow, I have enough popcorn to last for a while.  Since we were introduced to the letter P this week in class I think we just may have a Popcorn Party.

Shopping @ Publix

I love shopping at Publix, but this trip was not so exciting after having to deal with the anti-coupon cashier.  I mean she doubled checked, tripled checked and called the manager 3 times for this transaction.  I was very patient and calm and allowed her to do what she needed to do to clear her conscious for taking my coupons.  She acted as if I was stealing or something.  When I first went through her line she was very pleasant and polite, but after going through my stack of coupons she became irritated and just plain mean.

A gift for the Teacher

We don't get much from students in the area where I teach, but I would say this is one of the best teacher gifts I've ever received.  One of my student's grandmother works for McCormick and they get an opportunity to purchase seasoning several times a year and she thought of me.  She brought me all of the seasoning above and it didn't cost me one cent.  I was so excited to get all of my spices and I am looking forward to cooking with all of them as soon as possible.

TIMES ARE CHANGING IN EDUCATION

In the past we have received money to purchase supplies for our students to use in the classroom. but lately their is no money to purchase supplies.  We were told recently at my school that we would receive $75 per teacher to purchase supplies.  This includes anything we need to use with students such as paper, pencils, crayons, markers, glue sticks, scissors, construction paper, and poster boards.  We can only use school supplies catalogs, so how do you stretch $75 using the expensive school supply companies.  Now if was given this same $75 in cash I could surely spread it thick, but my hands are tied to the big box suppliers.

Lost Coupons

Update: I called Publix and they found my coupons I left.  Gotta Love Publix!

How do you feel when you loose or misplace coupons you plan on using?  Well I will tell you how this makes me feel.  I have lost or misplaced one of my coupon sleeves that contained some great coupons in it.  It even contained some free coupons for Clorox wipes, coffee creamer and Nathans Hot Dogs.  It also housed my $5 off $25 dollar competitor coupons that I use at Publix. I realized the sleeve was missing about a day ago and I have been looking high and low trying to find it.  I've looked in the car, in the pantry where I keep the grocery bags, in drawers, basically in every room of the house.  I plan to call the two stores I visited the last time I used them tomorrow, but tonight I will go to bed depressed.  I hate to lose anything, but when I lose coupons it's like loosing a pocket full of money. 

Amazon Deal of the Day

UPDATE:  The laminator is now $25.33, so it will ship free with Super Saving Shipping.
