Meeting for tonight has been CANCELLED...

We are not going to meet toinght. Several of our members are sick and there is not many of us left to meet so I think it will be best if we just cancel tonight and pick back up next month...or next year ;) I have emailed everyone that RSVP'd to me but if you know anyone that was going to attend please spread the word. I hope everyone has a great Christmas!

Come One, Come All....

Friday, Dec. 11 from 6:30-8:30 pm will be our last meeting of 2009!! (Not to worry, we will be picking back up in January) Normally, I don't have our meetings on Friday nights but the church was pretty booked up. Since it is on a Fri. night though, I have arranged CHILDCARE!!! for $5/child but I need to know by Dec. 8 if you want to sign your child up for this..no later! I am hoping that with it being Fri. night and having childcare that mostly everyone can attend! We will have light refreshments since it is our last meeting of the year! Let me know if you have anything you would like to bring! Don't forget to bring any groceries that you have gotten for free or nearly free to donate. We may also make a Christmas picture in front of the tree!! I think I may take the pic. of our group and make Christmas cards to give to our favorite stores! Start bringing your "trophy" receipts too so we can all share our savings!

Since we are going to have light refreshments and I have to have a count for chairs/tables please RSVP either to this blog, thecramblits@aol.com. or facebook...thanks!

Next Meeting...

Our next meeting is this Thurs. Nov. 5 at 6:30. THE MEETING DOES NOT START AT 5:30 IT STARTS AT 6:30! There was a misprint in the bulletin at church and I don't want everyone showing up an hour before they have to be there so please help me spread the word about the time!

Hope to see you all there!!!

Next Meeting!!

We will have our next meeting on Thursday, Nov. 5 @6:30 at Flint River Baptist Church in the room above the front foyer. (Same one as last time) If you come in the front door you will go up the stairst to your right.

We will be going over everything that we have learned from our last meeting when Holly was here. If you missed that meeting then you definitely need to be here Thurs!!

Please comment on this blog or email me at thecramblits@aol.com and let me know if you are going to be able to make it so that you will have a chair. Please let me know this by next Monday!

Bring your receipts that show your savings!!

Hope to see you there!!!

Publix Penny Item!!!! 10/25-26

Todays Penny Item is Publix Greenwise 4Pk Toilet Paper!!

This is one of my favorite Penny Items because who can't use toilet paper??!!! Remember: for the penny item you find the coupon in the Publix Ad in the Sunday's Paper..some stores require it and some don't...I think it depends on the cashier too. You have to spend $10 before coupons to get the penny item. If I don't have much time (like if I am running in after church) I always buy the boys' milk and one or two other items that I know are "necessities". Usually the other items are juice or bread or something like that...and this week our apple juice (Mott's Natural) is on sale for $1.79 so I just stocked up on that!

I also had several extra SS (Smart Source) coupon inserts in my paper so if anyone needs a particular coupon in there let me know because I have extras!

Welcome to Cheap Chick$!!!

I am SO excited about this group and the ladies that are part of it! First, I want to thank Holly from www.centsibleshopper.com for speaking at our kickoff Tue. night and all the ladies that came to help us get this group rolling! If you missed this event, don't worry, we are going to go over everything again at our next meeting. Holly was kind enough to leave us some extra packets for the ladies that couldn't make it.

I am going to have a post later with all of the helpful websites that Holly gave us to help us on our money - saving journey! Holly sent this one to me Wed. : www.iheartpublix.com/?p=4233 Be sure to check this website out ASAP...these are the Publix Super Deals for this week...sale ends Tue. night and there are some good deals..ecsp if you have kids (Ravioli, Ritz, pizza etc.)Even if you have never clipped a coupon or are overwhelmed at this point, this website will help you get rolling. There is a link that will take you to a printable coupon for the item that is on sale. Remember that is the key to maximizing your savings...to buy items that are on sale and to use a coupon for it!

Let's use this blog to keep in touch and share local deals and tips!
