yes, but so does every blog that you read. HCW definitely gets paid per click. The only way around it is to navigate and find the Qs yourself (coupons.com, zip XXXXX etc)
It is fine that they do. We can use that to show we pay for ourselves (somewhat) Smilie

I wonder what they get paid per print. I belong to Inbox Dollars and they pay .10 cents for each coupon you print AND redeem from their site. So I assume they get more than a dime for each coupon we redeem.

It also shows that they can and do track the coupons....

Oh wow! You were about a mile or two from my house then - in Swansea. Swansea borders Fairview Heights.

But I was staying in St. Charles, MO on Wed and Thursday nights. LOL

I wish I would have kept up with this thread. I had BOGO tickets to the Magic House I could have given you. They have them in the St. Louis Entertainment Book. I get several books every year for the $5/$50 Shop N Save coupons.

My great-niece and nephew were here visiting for 2 weeks. It was their first time visiting without their dad. They stayed at my mom's most of the time - and I got them for a couple days each week.

Choice Hotels has a deal where you get a $50 gas card if you stay two separate times from mid-May to mid-August so I was looking to see what deals I could find on a hotel. I just did a search of hotels within a 50 mile radius of St. Louis and sorted by price and the Quality Inn in St. Charles came up with a room with a King Size bed and sofa sleeper for $19 a night Bigeye I thought it was an error because all of the other rooms were close to $100. I think this one was supposed to be $109. But I booked it (with the AARP rate of $16.15 a night). It was a bit of a risk though because they could have refused to honor that price as an error. But they just shrugged and said "I am not sure why that rate came up."

I ended up paying $20 because of tax and the fact that they charge you $2 a night if you use the safe - and my nephew opened and closed the safe 3852 times. He definitely got $2 worth of entertainment out of it - opening it, closing it, locking things in it, changing the combination over and over and over again. And I sure didn't want to complain about my bill.

But it worked out well because we had already stayed at a different hotel in St. Louis the week before for $50 a night - so this stay qualified me for the $50 gas card. So I got a big chunk of my motel money back.
Is St. Charles a little bit west of St. Louis? I thought maybe that was the place we stopped in on our way out to fill up before leaving and if so it was a nice little town and I thought it'd be another place just far enough out to stay.

Great deal on your hotel!!!

DD just loved the magic house....just loved it. She could have played there for about 3 days straight I think Teehee

From what I've read, it's pay per click. Doesn't matter if you print there or not.

The AC is blasting and the house is still at 80s tonight...ugh. It is either the darn "Pepco Plan" that "saves us $$" but really is meant for help them or the darn AC is acting up or probably the refrigerant needs to be recharged. The latter is not good because it means we'll have to ask MIL to call it in w/ the appliance protection plan she has w/ this house. I think we will sweat a little LMAO

Gosh this mini seasonal clearance itch is getting to me. I barely had the time to check one store today by checking a pack of foil bags. Still 70% so I just left the store since the kids were a total mess. I hope tomorrow is the day for 90% around here and that I can get out before the kids' playdate Wink

back to hulu 'til DH gets home. Wave

I just found out about this and hope I can find them. You can also print another 2 of these $2/1 from the A&R Savings Center [armandhammer.com]

you should also look for the G.U.M. PerioShield mouthwash. Ppl have found them at 75% ~ $2.95 (only checked 1 store and it was 50% at $5.89). There is a $5/1 IP and a $3 SS reward. Even as a >$1 filler it was good enough for me. heart the CVS clearance thread

Woo Hoo! The joys of clearance Yahoo!

I bought $10 worth of stuff today... would have been well over $100. I also found two grills (repped Zolar). This was so much FUN!

I'll ask again (because it wasn't answered).

Setsail, how are you and your little man?

Not setsail but last I heard they were both fine. Just taking a little time for her to get her strength back I think.

I am missing clearance stuff. Won't get to go till Saturday and will probably be gone or salvaged by then.

mini summer is making my head spin.
I think I'll squeeze in one T today for a couple more things I have on my list Wink Really trying to find that coppertone pure & simple. Says available at two store but couldn't find it at one ...Pray the second one has them out. I wonder if store know what is what and could take the package apart to sell them separately at full price. They all have a place on their own in the store. I know, I know...conspiracy theories but T (and other stores) have done other shady things that I wouldn't be surprised at all.

morning.

altogether hit 4 stores. as usual, my nearby store only had 30% off signs up so even though i got there late, i did pretty good. even found 1-400ct napkin in the reg napkin section. found 1 glad mini-round mixed in the reg section. wished i'd found the large but anything is better than nothing. i actually haven't opened the one i got last yr yet but it will happen. just last wk used another one at sil's 2nd home.

2nd store did have a 4 foot gondola of clearance marked 75% off but it was all junk. did find 3 striped dinner plates dumped in the summer seasonal section that is getting stickered, that match the 3 bowls i found at the first store.

3rd store no more mini-seasonal section but good hidden treasure. got a 2nd glass beverage dispenser, 2nd dragonfly string lights, 2 of the polar bear mugz that make ice cream and caved and bought a 3rd oval metal tub in white.

4th store also no more section but found the banzai slide, a coppertone lotion, 5 reynold foil grill bags, one plastic cup that matches the 3 plates and 3 bowls and some orange dot stuff inc another spike light up ball in pink this time, a tablecloth, some glow in the dark balls. too bad melamine isn't microwaveable. would have been perfect to give nephew going to college a plate, bowl and cup set and then keep the other 2 plates and bowls for myself. but he needs stuff he can stick in the microwave.

everyone be sure to check reviews on amazon. the banzai beach ball and sprinkler ring have horrible reviews. i don't keep anything less than 3 stars.

i also try to test everything and plug everything in if i can. last yr i had some really bad experiences. a clock radio i got from xmas clearance i gave as a gift did not work and a tonka flipover rc car bff bought off me also didn't work at all. easter clearance some of the pinwheels didn't work and went right back. nowadays i try to test those things in the store. i bounced all the orange dot light up spike balls b4 they came home w/ me.
