Cheap coffee, anyone?


I ordered from Boca Java back in early Spring and my husband and I have been very happy with the coffee we received. We picked 4 different flavors and have enjoyed every one of them! So get yours today! 4 bags of coffee for $9.95 with free shipping is a good price. I am thinking of ordering another set to make a gift basket for a Christmas gift.

When I ordered before, it did say that I was signing up for monthly shipments. But as soon as I got my cheap coffee (which came very quick!), I just logged on to their website and cancelled my membership. No problems, no questions asked, and I have not been contacted by them again. Their site specifically says you have no further obligation to buy anything and you may cancel at anytime by logging into your account at www.bocajava.com or by calling 1-888-BOCA JAVA.

Cick above to enjoy your cheap gormet coffee today!

My favorite budget-friendly, family-friendly recipe

"Chicken of the Ritz"

2 - 2 1/2 lbs. of cooked and shredded chicken
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
1/2 stick butter
salt and pepper if chicken not seasoned

Mix chicken, sour cream, and cans of soup (do not mix milk or anything with the soup). Spread in bottom of 13 x 9 baking dish. Crumble Ritz crackers on top and drizzle butter on top of crackers. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes until bubbly and crackers are lightly browned.

Makes 4- 6 servings

Now me share what I typically buy the ingredients for:
2- 2 1/2 lbs of chicken - $1.50
(I buy the bone-in split chicken breast for recipes in which I just need shredded chicken on sale for $0.99/lb.) With the recent $1.00 off Tyson coupon I got this chicken for @ $1.50 for the whole package! I cook my chicken by taking the skin off and placing in the crockpot with a little seasoning and water and cooking on high for about 4 hours. It comes out juicy, falls off the bone, and requires almost no work at all!

2 cans of soup $.50 each = $1.00

1 cup sour cream (usually get a 2 cup pkg for $0.50 or less ) = $0.25

1 1/2 - 2 sleeves Ritz crackers (usually get the whole box for about $1.00 at Publix BOGO) = $0.50

1/2 stick butter (4 sticks for $1.50) = $0.18

Total cost for the whole recipe= $3.43! and that should feed a family of 4 for $0.86 a serving!

Pair this with some fresh veggies or some FREE steamfresh veggies and you could easily have a meal under $6.00 for a family of 4! Sometimes I have even put steamfresh mixed vegetables into the casserole for a "meal-all-in-one-dish."

I can't wait to get some ideas from you for some budget-friendly, family-friendly recipes! Leave them in a comment under the giveaway #3 post.

Check out this giveaway and come back tonight to enter for my 3rd giveaway!

CVS 101 (part 2)

Here are some tips to help you even more with your CVS shopping:

  • Ask for rainchecks. If CVS is out of any item, even a ECB item, ask for a raincheck. On the raincheck they should write the event code(a small # code printed in the CVS ad next to the ECB item) on the raincheck so that when you buy the item later you will not only get the item at the sale price, but they will able to print the ECB for you as well.
  • Watch the limits on ECB deals. The limit will be printed in the ad and on the shelf tag. If the item has a limit of more than 1 don't buy all the items in the same transaction. If you do, the ECB's for ALL of the items will print in one lump sum ECB. For example: if an item gives a $5.00 ECB and has a limit of 5 and you buy all 5 in a transaction you will get (1) $25 ECB! This is rather hard to use later if CVS has a slow week and you don't have a $25 total after coupons.
  • "Buy $ worth get xx ECB deals". For deals like "Buy $20 worth get $xx ECB" you don't have to buy all the items in one transaction. Just make sure to go back and finish doing the deal! The bottom of your receipt will keep track of all your purchases for the week. So if you bought $8.00 worth it will say "amount toward reward - $8.00, amount needed to reach reward - $12.00." This is the same for "buy 2 get xx ECB". You don't have to buy both items in one transaction - just don't forget to buy the 2nd one later!
  • Watch the bottom of your receipt. Not only will it keep track of your purchases like I stated above, it will also keep track of the limits. It will say how many items you have bought and if you have reached your limit yet.
  • Scan your card at the Coupon Printer every time you visit CVS! If your store has a price checker/coupon printer, scan your card there to get valuable CVS store coupons! Especially on your first visit that week, you can usually scan your card multiple times until it says "No more coupons available." Also watch for CVS coupons to print on the bottom of your receipt.
  • Stack your coupons if possible. CVS will accept 1 manufacturer coupon AND 1 CVS coupon on each item. So if you had a CVS store coupon for $1.00 of any deodorant and you had a manuf. coupon for $1.00 of Sure deodorant you could use both coupons and get $2.00 total off 1 Sure deodorant.
  • Watch the expiration dates on your ECB's!! If they expire most stores will not let you use them and you are in a sense throwing money away! There have been times that I have had ECB's expiring and no good ECB deals to do. So I would just buy milk, or TP or something my family needed instead of letting that "money" go to waste! I try to keep my ECB's filed (in my small coupon binder) with the ECB expiring the soonest first so I know when I have to use it.
  • Register your card at CVS.com. They will sometimes send you coupons like "$4 off a $20 purchase" and more in your email.
  • Hand your coupons to the cashier in a certain order. If you have any kind of $ off coupon like $5/$25, etc. hand the cashier that coupon first. Then hand all your manuf. coupons and CVS coupons. I always then ask the cashier what the total is before tax (since my ECB's will not pay the tax) and I then combine and grab any ECB's that I have that can get me closest to the total without going over (unless it is only a few pennies over).
  • Be nice to your store employees and cashiers!! I have 2 main CVS stores that I visit in my area and I know most of the employee's names and greet them by name as I come in the store. And they either know my name or know who I am (one store has a CVS hall of fame with pictures of great CVS shoppers and their coupon testimony posted and they call me "Hall of famer"!) I have to say, I have some wonderful CVS cashiers! I have shared diaper coupons and tips on how to do a really great deal or a hidden deal that week with them on multiple occasions. So, no groans as I come up to the cash register with my stack of coupons and sometimes even multiple transactions - they laugh and chat with me and try to guess how much I will pay for everything. It makes shopping at CVS so much more enjoyable and it also helps me uphold my Christian testimony!

I hope this has helped answer your questions about shopping at CVS and you are ready to give it a try!

If you have a question that I haven't answered, please either leave a comment or send me a email at centsiblesavings (@) yahoo (.) com.
