My store currently has Omega Water priced at $1.89 (regular price). I found a $1/1 coupon on the dietary shelf (located near the entrance at my local Hyvee..usually has whatever health products they are promoting that week/month and is right next to produce). The waters were located in the soda aisle and there were actually only two left total! This makes the waters $0.89 each! Has anyone tried these yet?

Guest post by Heather from Feel Good About Dinner as originally posted on Money Saving Mom!
Premixed spice packets and sauces promote convenience, but are they really saving you time? If you knew you could get the same (or better) results by adding just a few spices to the pot, would you still buy them?
It is a lot easier than you may think. In fact, once you learn how to use your own spices, you will wonder why you ever bought those little packets.
Not only is it easy to use your own spices, but a lot cheaper. An average spice packet costs anywhere from $0.50 to $2. That sounds pretty cheap, but when you consider that it is only for one meal, it really adds up.
Basic spices can be purchased in generic varieties for $0.50 to $1–or even cheaper if you buy from a bulk food store. These can be used for several meals or even dozens of meals.
For example, I could buy a taco-seasoning packet for $0.50 on sale for one meal, or I could buy $3 worth of spices and make more than 20 taco/Mexican dishes. Multiply that by all of the different mixes we buy, and that is a huge savings over time.
Not only is it easy and inexpensive to season your own dishes, it’s also healthier and tastier. Spice packets add a lot of extra salt, empty calories, and mystery ingredients. In addition, seasoning dishes yourself doesn’t lock you into one flavor, but allows you to adjust the flavor of the dish to your taste.
I have known people who even used both seasoning packets and spices. The packet doesn’t provide enough flavor for them, so they add extra oregano or crushed red pepper. They could have skipped the spice packet all together and just added their favorite spices.
While it can be a time and sanity-saver for some people to pre-make baggies of seasonings, I’ve found it’s easier for me to just have the spices on hand and add them in to a recipe as I need them.
Not sure where to start when making substituting homemade seasoning for seasoning packets? The following is a list of basic spices to keep stocked in your pantry and the types of dishes for which they are used:
Italian Spices
Oregano
Basil
Thyme
Fresh Garlic
Mexican Spices
Chili Powder
Crushed Red Pepper
Cumin
Fresh Garlic
Miscellaneous Spices
Rosemary: Pork, Broth
Sage: Stuffing, Sausage
Cinnamon
Paprika
Garlic Salt
For additional help, find a good homemade spaghetti sauce recipe to learn Italian spices and a taco-seasoning recipe to learn Mexican spices. Think of these recipes as a method and not just a recipe. Once you learn how to use your own spices, it will open up a whole new window of creativity in your kitchen.
Heather lives in a Detroit suburb with her husband, Mark, and two boys, Jonathan (15) and David (10). Heather is a full-time wife and mother and a part-time substitute teacher.

Here are this week’s Walmart matchups.
Walmart matchups are a little different than other stores because they rarely put out a weekly sales flyer, and when they do most of the prices advertised are their regular “Everyday Low Prices,” rather than a special sale. Thus, most of the match-ups on this list are “Every Day Low Price” items that match up well with coupons that are currently available. The prices are gathered by physically going to the store and recording prices, then matching up current coupons.
Please remember that prices on this list may vary by location!
Walmart’s new coupon policy is very friendly towards couponers AND allows for overage, so there are some great opportunities for saving. Walmart also does price matching for advertised sale prices, and BOGO if a price is listed. They also accept coupons for price matched items, which can really add up the savings! Be sure to print a copy of the Walmart Coupon Policy to take with you.
As always, note that links to printable coupons are subject to expire at any time. If you come across a link that has expired, please let me know in the comment section below and I will try to remove it. Thanks!

As some of you may know, I posted on Friday about how the travel size Tide packets at Walmart would be FREE after the $2/1 Tide detergent (no size restriction) coupon available in today’s P&G insert. Well, shortly after posting this deal I discovered that the Tide travel size packets aren’t actually valid for this coupon. I do not condone using coupons improperly, however, I had no clue that these little Tide packets aren’t actually distributed by P&G.
Here’s what Tide stated in the comment section on their Facebook Wall:
The coupon does not have a size restriction and is valid on all Tide detergent that is distributed by Procter & Gamble. The single use packets are not distributed by P&G and therefore the store reserves the right to choose not to accept the coupon on that item. I hope this helps with any confusion.
Also, here’s what Tide stated in reply to a comment left on their Facebook Wall:
We license the Tide name and actual product to another company (in this case Cotton Buds) to distribute one use packets of the product. It is actually Tide in the package but it is distributed by the other company. Since that product isn’t distributed by P&G the stores reserve the right to deny a manufacturer’s coupon on that product. I hope this helps.
I apologize for not doing more thorough research before posting about the Walmart deal on Friday. I did decide to educate my readers once I realized that the deal was a no go… however, I know that some of you may have already headed to Walmart this morning trying to snag the deal, only to leave feeling frustrated – which makes me feel bad.
I also feel that it wouldn’t have been too difficult for P&G to put excludes trial/travel size on the coupon. Even though they don’t distribute these packets… well, they should have known that most consumers don’t know that. So to make is easier on all, it would have made way more sense (in my opinion) to put exclusions on the coupon.

A frugal lifestyle is more than just refusing to spend money or going after the best deal. It is about being a good steward with all of your resources. Some people are unwilling or unable to change their spending budget. That doesn’t mean they can’t be frugal.
Here are three ways you can save money without changing your spending:
1. Use Less
There are some things that you just have to buy, but if you use a little less of them, you’ll stretch those products further. It is better to go back for a little more shampoo than to use too much to begin with!
Here are some ideas for things you can experiment with to see how little you can actually use while still getting the job done:
*shampoo/conditioner
*toothpaste
*laundry detergent
*hand soap
*dish detergent
*lotion
*toilet paper
*milk – in your cereal or coffee
*electricity - Turn off lights and other devices when you’re not using them.
*heat – Use a blanket, sweater, or hot drink to warm up.
*baby wipes – Tear them in half and only use what you need.
*gas – Crystal shared 15 ways to save money on gasoline here and here.
water – Turn off water when possible, take shorter showers, or recycle “gray” water.
2. Use it All
Don’t waste what you’ve already paid for! I shudder just thinking about how much money I’m “throwing away” each time I clean out my refrigerator. Food is the most obvious thing people struggle to use completely, but there are more.
Here are some ways you can be sure to get your money’s worth out of products by using all of it:
*Keep a container in your freezer for leftover veggies that you can add to regularly. Then when the container is full, make soup.
*Swish some water in your “empty” shampoo/conditioner bottle to get out the last drops.
*Freeze over ripe bananas to use for baking or Crystal’s chocolate banana smoothies.
*Peel off that last annoying, glued-to-the-roll square of toilet paper and add it to the next roll.
*Cut the tops off your “empty” toothpaste, face wash, and lotion to access some hidden product. There is more left in there than you think!
*Save stale bread for making bread crumbs or go on a duck feeding adventure.
3. Use it Twice
There are some things that you can truly only use once. That dab of toothpaste on your toothbrush? Yeah, I’d love to see you try to use that again! Then there are other things that really can be used again and it will save you money in the long run.
Here are some things around your house that can use twice or more:
*laundry - Do a sniff test. If it passes, then what’s the harm in wearing it again?
*paper towels - Do you use one to cover your food in the microwave? Use it over & over or use it as your napkin for that meal.
*tin foil - Did you cover a dish without it getting messy? Fold it up & save it.
*old t-shirts - Cut them into rags or make a necklace.
*gift bags - Use them for a future gift. If they are too wrinkled or ugly you can use them to carry things around.
*gift bows - Put a piece of tape on the back and use them over and over.
*tissue paper - Did you know that you can iron tissue paper?
*plastic food storage bags - I don’t recommend doing this with meat, but you can wash and reuse bags several times.
*plastic grocery bags - Use them in small trash cans, to pick up behind your dog on walks, or as a “wet bag” in your diaper bag.
*q-tips - If you use one end for touching up your make-up, save it to use the other end next time.
*birthday candles & decorations - They are used for such a short time. Why not save them for the next birthday?
*disposable swim diapers - Put swim diapers in your laundry and use them several times before throwing them out.
You don’t have to be a coupon queen or a penny pincher to save some cash! Those things certainly help, but when you’ve done everything you can to save money, try these three tactics to stretch your dollar even further.
What suggestions do you have for getting the most out of your products?
I’m crossing my fingers that we all receive the $1.00 off Pampers wipes Target Coupon in today’s Red Plum insert.

Hurry, because the manufacturer coupon expires Monday!
