Free Airwick warmers at commissary, printable

Coupons.com has a printable coupon for $1 off an Airwick plug-in warmer unit. For me it's on page 9 of coupons.com, but that goes by zip code, here:

These plug-ins are 75 cents at the commissary. Every coupon you print is a free warmer and a quarter taken off your bill. I will normally print a few of these, maybe 4 or 5, grab those warmers, and get $1.00 or $1.25 taken off my bill to help pay for the rest of my groceries.

Another easy way to get an overage!

Some more overages/freebies at the commissary are $1.00 Suave deodorant (they are 0.79), $2.00 Dentastix (they are $2.00), and $1.00 off Small Steps tissues (they are $1.00)

Walmart is about to pay you to take formula

In the April 3rd Sunday paper, and all over Ebay, there is a $5 off any Similac formula coupon. Walmart has Similac Ready to Feed for $3.84.

Walmart’s Coupon Policy states that you can apply the overage to the rest of your shopping order.

Do the math here! One $5.00 coupon, the item is only $3.84, the Walmart let's you keep the overage, that's Walmart paying you $1.16 for every bottle of this that you buy with a coupon.

Didn't get this coupon in the paper? Here they are all over Ebay!

I just ordered 10 of them for $3.00. When I go and buy 10 bottles (and I will donate thiese since I don't have a baby!), Walmart will give me $11.60 in overage. The cost of my coupons were $3.00, so I profited $9.60 not really doing anything at all. That means anything else I add to my cart at Walmart for $6.60, home stuff, groceries, anything, is going to be free. This is a really simple way to make some money at Walmart. THe more coupons you go ahead and get, the more you can save.

This is where the "Extreme Coupon" people would buy 100 or more of the coupons and save $160 or more but I'm just not that crazy and I don't want 100 bottles of formula!

If you use this Similac formula you have just struck gold!!!

Here's a link to the formula find:

How to coupon at the commissary!

In order to coupon at the commissary, you need to know what the sales are. Lucky for us, http://www.commissaries.com tells us the price of EVERY SINGLE ITEM THAT IS IN THE STORE along with what's on sale. Couldn't be easier!!

Once you're on commissaries.com, you can click the quick link "What's on sale" to view promotional prices. You'll login with the active duty member's social and birthdate because this info isn't available to the public (we're special), and then choose your commissary (I am Camp Lejeune MCB).

A huge huge list of all products and brands will come up with their sale prices, and how long that price is good for. They really make this the easiest thing in the world for us.

Once you've got your price list, you can search through coupons online or through the circulars if you get the paper. Every coupon I have in front of me or see online, I will normally go back to this sale guide to see if the item will be free or an overage. The general rule is that an item goes on sale once every 3 months, so when you see something that yo use often on this sale list, you need to stock up and google some coupons for it!

Example: Pampers baby wipes are $1.76 right now. Now I know as I'm looking through coupons that if I find a $2 off, I'm going to get paid to take baby wipes.

You'll start to learn what things cost at the commissary, so when you see a high value coupon, you'll just start to learn that the store is actually going to end up paying you to take it when you give them your coupon!

I absolutely love that this is online, it saves me that moment of having no idea how much something is going to actually cost there.
