25 Organic Seed Packets for $4.99

Let me start out by saying that I'm very excited about this offer. Earlier this year I wrote a POST where I talked about my love of gardening and heirloom veggies. I even mentioned (okay - pictured) Seeds of Change in my post.

(Click on the picture to view the seed cataloge)

Now, Seeds Of Change is giving away 100 million seeds; you just have to pay shipping!

Individuals will be sent 25 packets of seeds (approx. $75 value). Shipping and handling = $4.99
Organizations will be sent 100 packets of seeds (approx. $300 value).  Shipping and handling = $14.99

I know, shocker of shockers, there's a RA ad preview on the blog!!  : )  I'm hoping that this week sees some more normal activity on the blog. (Normal activity on the blog means more normal activity at home . . . I'm ready for some plain ol' run-of-the-mill normal.)

Rite Aid Deal and Transaction Scenarios 3/20 to 3/26

 

New to Rite Aid shopping? Visit the RiteAid page for more information.

All my scenarios will reflect my personal goal to either make money or at least not to have spent any at the end of the month - after I get my Single Check Rebate, Rite Aid gift cards, and/or MIR checks.

**Unless otherwise indicated, there is a limit of one single check rebate per item.


And another less-than-normal week at my house . . . Seems to be a theme around my house.

I will receive a MIR check for $0. And I will have $25 in +UP Rewards left for other purchases this week or next. That's like MAKEing $6.21 on products with a sale value of $60.77!

Giant Eagle March 17-23

Here are the highlights for this week. If you see any other fantastic deals, let me know.

• Giant Eagle's ad runs from Thursday to Wednesday.
• My GE doubles all coupons up to $0.99.
• Don't forget to load your GE card with Giant Eagle's EOffers and with e-coupons from Shortcuts and Cellfire. (If the same coupon is on more than one site, only load one at a time. After you have redeemed/used the first coupon, then go back and load the next. If you load both to your card, you will loose one of them.)
• Be careful with the CAT deals. If you do two of the same CAT deals in the same transaction, the CAT may not print. Check your ad to make sure that you separate like CAT deals into separate transactions.
• Remember, you can order coupons that you don't have from a CouponClippingService.

These are the Giant Eagle deals that I see this week:
