Aldi
- Charlotte says: “I just remembered that at the Lily Cache store in Bolingbrook, I saw Low Carb bars for sale. “Compare to Atkins indulge”. Caramel peanut and coconut if I recall correctly.”
- And adrimom comments: “Aldi has Disney Princess dresses marked down to $5 if you can find a store that still has some left! I found them at the Orland store. This is a great price for dress up. They carry Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, and Belle.”
Coupons
- A tip from Julie D on the Scott CVS coupon: “You need to scratch the spot off completely. If you leave any of the gray, the link will not pop up. I had the same problem until I scratched off the little swatch that I had missed the first time. My coupon opened as soon as I posted to twitter, no waiting.”
- Lisa noticed: “Also on the page with zip code 33990 are 1.00/1 la croix 12 pack and 2.50/1 oregon cafe (the company that makes oregon chai). Great coupons.”

- Francesca on Facebook gives us another one to look for: “my dollar tree had peanut butter and chocolate crackerfuls”

Java
- Some advice from Keith: “No need to panic about the Java issues. There are security holes in Java all the time. Microsoft Windows, Adobe Acrobat and Flash, the list goes on. If you want to see how secure your computer is, download SecuniaPSI. Free software that will keep all your software patched properly.”
Kmart
- Susan sends over: “I stopped by Kmart today and found tresemme products down to $2.42 & $2.15 with $1.75 coupon peelies on them. The other products (shampoo & conditioner) were on sale for under $5 plus buy one get one half off plus the $1.75 peelies. I got some styling products for 40¢. Just a heads up!”

Ultra Foods
- LauraC comments: “I still have the Duracell coupon from the one page sheet that came in the Tribune. It’s for $4.00 off and expired 12/31.” It was a regional thing, around Thanksgiving.
Walmart
- A report from jenniferh: “The walmart in south elgin carries the delights bowls for 2.58. They do not cary the icyhot/aspercreme, emergen-c, duct tape or advil. I went thinking I would come home with a bunch of stuff and only came home with 2 jimmy dean bowls (the last 2) they had. Its not worth the gas to drive to different walmarts to find the stuff.” I couldn’t agree more!

I think if you’re going to pay McDonald’s prices for wings you might as well go to Buffalo Wild Wings on Tuesday for $.60 wings or Thursday for $.60 boneless wings.
Dollar tree in north aurora is HUGE!!! They have Palmolive dish soap, soft soap body wash and hand soap, Advil 6 ct. Nivea lip gloss, hefty slider bags (13 ct) and lots of bars of soap (jergens, dial, zest, Irish spring) not sure if they are 2 or 4 ct. Most of these have coupons in various inserts that make them next to free!!!
Does anyone know if the Fiat Mart Ministry store that used to be in Algonquin is up and running at a different location yet? They had to shut down in I think it was September and were looking for a different location. Or, does anyone know of another store that is like that, where they have donated items from local stores at a large discount? Thanks so much!!
I picked up antibiotic last night and Meijer, and my eye caught an end cap of Meijer children’s liquid Ibuprofen on clearance. Price was $1.17. I think. This was Meijer St. Charles.
Melissa, re: blender. Not sure what your budget is, but if you want a great blender for ice, smoothies, most anything, check out Ninja and Ninja XL. I’ve been very happy with mine – powerful motor, multiple rows of blades, easy cleanup, etc. Check site tonight – if a Kohl’s card holder, Kohl’s cash can still be earned with purchases this evening. If you go a step up from the blender listed @ $124.99 (before 30% code, Kohl’s cash, etc) you can get the food processor version: http://www.kohls.com/search.jsp?bmForm=endeca_search&bmFormID=jMZAZXW&bmUID=jMZAZXX&bmIsForm=true&bmPrevTemplate=%2Fupgrade%2Fwebstore%2Fcatalog.jsp&bmText=search&search=blender+ninja&bmSubmit=submit-search&submit-search=Search&bmHidden=FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374762326345
I love my ninja!! Got it as a gift and I is so versatile.

Melissa on the blender: Aldi has smoothie makers for $19.99 in some unique colors. I bought one and it works great. If your putting any powder in it for mixing put it on top. The cups come with sealable lids.
the quaker instant win giveaway coupon ($1/2 quaker products) works on the new quaker yogurt bars that are 2 for $1 at walgreens, making them free. Better yet, if you buy 8 and use four coupons, you get 250 points, making it a tiny money maker.
