Almost everyone knows and loves Valpak! For as long as I can remember, we have been receiving those blue envelopes full of coupons for local and national businesses. I have found great new restaurants, saved at local book stores, on oil changes, and car washes and even got some great deals from national companies as a result of those Valpak envelopes!
It’s Back To School time, which means buying new clothes and supplies for the kids and that can get expensive ($100 calculator anyone?). At this time of year, every dollar saved elsewhere can go towards paying for those school supplies!
Valpak may have been mailing out coupons for the last 40 years, but they have advanced with the times to make it easier for you to save! Most of those coupons that you get in the mail can also be printed online at Valpak.com (which I didn’t know until last week!). Our favorite Chinese restaurant usually has a coupon in the Valpak mailer and I just checked and I can print the current coupon at Valpak.com as well. This will certainly come in handy when I need another coupon before the next mailer comes, or Brad just gets a little “overzealous” in sorting the mail!

sales and saving up doing the summer
by buying the items on sale
Finding extra money is not easy here lately, I just try not to buy frivolously and think more about getting things we need on sale!!!
I just got a new job! So that certainly helps with budgeting! Other than that, I’m using my coupons that I can and matching them with store deals. I’ve found a few at lesser known back-to-school stores.
I quit smoking so that I could have extra money to buy back to school supplies. I’m still scraping the bottom of the barrel though. lol
I have been saving with my coupons and purchasing school supplies all year with my savings from my coupons and rewards
using the sales and coupons.
