So I've been seeing this everywhere. I though why not give it a try...Swagbucks, basically it’s a search engine that randomly rewards you with points just for doing online searches. Seriously, that’s all there is to it. You’ll likely earn between 10-30 points per day for searches and when you have 450 points, you can cash in for a $5 Amazon gift card. And there are dozens of other great prizes to choose from as well!

Diaper Challenge!
I finally got around to doing the price breakdown of my first Diapers purchase with coupons. It was also my first time couponing at Walgreens. I must say first up....you got to be organized and you've read up on how to shop at Walgreens before you go.. Thank you Lord for Olevene, the most patient and helpful cashier I've ever met. My first trip, with two babies in tow, I came away a bit frazzled but not thwarted from shopping there again. There's some great deals to be had like this....
@ Walgreens 3/24/10
Sale on Huggies Diapers, Size 3
$8.99 (36ct.) -$3/1 MFGC (printable)= $5.99 (17cents each)
wyb 3 packs, w/ 3 coupons = $17.97
you get RR = $5.00
---------------------------------
$12.97 (108ct.) = 12cents each!!!!!!! ($4.32 each pack)
So my husband wants to test me and my couponing..."but how does that deal compare to just buying the diapers @ Sam's????" I am so excited to say...I WON this one, mr. big warehouse!!! Here's the price breakdown...

What else did I get at Walgreens that day...
Oscar Mayer Bacon, 1lb. Pkg.
