I was pleasantly surprised Sunday morning when I woke up to three dozen fresh baked Krispy Kreme doughnuts courtesy of my husband. (I couldn’t have been more pleased and I showed it by eating a half dozen doughnuts by myself.) What was even better was the fact that I found three really cute sets of Valentines Day cards in the bags. They were too adorable and all I kept thinking was “Yay! I don’t have to buy my son’s Valentine’s Day cards for their class this year.”
That was until I opened them to get a better look.

I am going to reiterate my rule on buying cereal in my house: I will not pay more than $1.00 per box for cereal. I have too many people in my household, and it does not afford me the luxury to spend $3 and $4 for a box of cereal when we can easily eat one and half in a day.
There is a new high value coupon for $2.00 off of 1 Raisin Bran, Shredded Wheat or Grape Nuts Cereal printable available for print.
This is a really high value coupon and I can see this coupon, when paired with a sale, getting anyone cheap cereal. This coupon can only be p...

If you have been to the main Penny Pinching Diva website lately, you have probably noticed that it is looking a little different. With 2010 well on it's way, I have been wanting to update the look of the website for quite some time now. Being the picky person that I am, I have not been able to find "the look" for this website. I am happy to say that I have finally settled on the new look for Penny Pinching Diva, and I hope that you take a look at it and let me know what you think of it.

Liquid hand soap in the pump is a staple in my household. Especially in my son's bathroom because bar soap is not kid friendly. Neither are germs, so we frequently wash our hands.
This week Target has Method Hand Soap on sale for $2.49.
Use the $2.00 off of 1 printable coupon to get this handsoap for just $.49 this week. This is a great stockpile opportunity.
Thank you to Deal Seeking Mom for this Target alert....

If you text APPLE to 69100 you will get a return text message that says "Show this text for $5.00 off of ur Food purchase (today only)."
Now, I don't know about you but I will be using this coupon to get me a free Maple Butter Blondie sometime this week. This coupon is ONLY valid on the day that you text 69100 for this coup...

This is a really good coupon for those of you whose family eats a lot of oatmeal for breakfast. Even if you don't eat a lot of oatmeal you can use it for other recipes, like Oatmeal Raisin cookies. There is currently a high value coupon for $1.00 off of Quaker Instant Oatmeal, Quaker Quick Oats or Quaker Old fashioned Oats. This coupon, when paired with a really good sale, would make for reallly cheap oatmeal.
