King Soopers Freebies


It's been a while since I have had a chance to post.  I can never keep up.  My oldest turned 8 this week and we had a small family party for her last Sunday, then her actual Birthday we went out to eat and celebrated with a 1/2 eaten cake (the dog ate the other half right off the stove, I salvaged what he didn't touch...darn dog)  and today we have her friend party at 2...swimming here we come.

Anyway,  Kings has a few Freebies that I picked up today and several other great deals:

Right Guard Deodarant
$1
Use B1G1 Free from 7/25 RP
Also use $1.50 from 8/15 RP
These end up being better than FREE
I picked up 6 as it is the deodarant that my hubby likes.

Quaker Rice cakes (part of the buy 8)
There are $1 off printables on quakers website.
These would be FREE

There is also a deal on Fruit Snacks (I only bought these for the birthday party...my kid doesn't need anymore cavities)
They are $1.49 a box
There are many printables out there for $.50 off two
Shortcuts has coupons you can load, and possibly cellfire.
Then if you buy 5 you get a $3 coupon off your next order
This could be as low as $.49 after the $3 coupon if you buy 6 and use (3) $.50/2 coupons

I also got some good deals on Ziploc containers, Cottonelle Toilet Paper (check their site for coupons), Gardetto's Snack Mix, Chex Mix, Bugels, etc. 

Have a great Weekend!

Monogram Tile for a Wedding Gift

 This is without the stand

I bought a tile from World of Tile for more than I wanted to spend...but it was a natural stone, and a wedding gift, so I wanted something really cool.

Then I designed the monogram in Sure Cuts A Lot.

I decided that since there were many colors in the stone that I wanted different colors of vinyl.  I used black for the circle and the corner detail.  I used dark brown for the H and then I layered white and brown for their last name and established year.  The white was too stark since the tile had more of a cream to it, so the brown overlay toned it down a bit.

My hubby decided that it would be a good idea to strengthen up the tile, so he got out his stinky fiberglass resin and applied it to the back.  I picked up an easel stand for it at Target for about $8.00

Then because I'm thrifty I didn't want to spend $5 on a wedding gift bag.  I had a plain white one at home and whipped out the ol' vinyl and Cricut one more time and added the H monogram to the bag.  It turned out really nice and I hope they will cherish it for years to come!




Here it is all wrapped up
