I love to share frugal tips and ideas daily.. Please come by and visit

I just found another deal you can link with the 55% off grocery coupon (CLRNCFTY) right now.

Special Offer with $25 Order (I believe your total would have to be at least $25 after the coupon in order for this to work).

Get a one-year subscription to Self Magazine (a $12.00 value) included with your order when you spend $25 or more at Amazon.com’s Grocery and Health & Personal Care stores.

or

If you don’t want the subscription to Self Magazine just make a copy of your Amazon confirmation/order and complete and send in this form to receive a $12 refund (the cost of the magazine subscription).

Hurry!!
Offer valid for purchases made between August 15 and September 15, 2008.

Just an example of what you could do with this….

I’m looking at the Starbucks Coffee

1 order of 3 bags is $29.55- 55% = $13.30
Buy 2= $26.60 (shipping on these is free for me because I signed up for the trial of Prime and these qualify). My description of Amazon Prime is here.
- $12 refund
Total= $14.60 for 6 bags of coffee that would cost me $9-10 each in the local store.

So I could spend $13.30 for 3 bags or $14.60 for 6
Can’t beat the gain for $1.30!!

I just did it myself!!

They have several other magazines that you can do this with. Here are just a few examples that all work out to be $1.60 with the coupon code June (there is a note on their homepage about using the code July for 20% off but it didn’t work… I had found the code June here and it works perfectly)

Some are 1 year and some are even 2!

Bridal Guide Magazine

Cabela’s Outfitter Journal

Car and Driver

Four Wheel & Off Road

redbook

I purchased Everyday with R.R. (1 yr), Family Fun Magazine (2yrs), Wondertime (1yr), and Women’s Day (3yr for $5). My grand total was… drum roll please…. $8.80

They take credit card or Paypal for payment and you can expect your publications in 4-16 wks… for the price I’m willing to wait for them. Just printed my receipt and will keep it handy until they all come.

I had never heard of this site before, so this is my first attempt at using them. I did do some research and found that most everyone that has ordered from them was satisified with what they received. I felt like for $8 it was worth the try for me.

Code is good through 9/30/08, but good items are going fast so order soon!

If you look around there are some good buys on items that never have coupons.

I might have to order some Starbucks coffee myself. We stopped going there and I did some research and bought a good espresso machine and now we just make our own coffee beverages… they’re even better than the ones they make if I must say so myself.

This topic is dear to me as I worked in an OB/GYN office for six years and we saw it everyday. You can carry HPV for years with no signs or symptoms and normal pap tests and then one day it becomes active and starts causing the cells on you cervix to change. That is why it is so important to have paps done on a regular basis even if you are no longer sexually active. You may be fine for 20+ years and one day, Bingo!, changes start to happen. It’s important to catch those changes early so that it can be stopped before it becomes a serious problem.

Also keep in mind that there are some new vaccines out to help prevent the most common/serious forms of HPV. They are better served to be given before someone becomes sexually active, but can have some benefits if you already are. Talk to your doctor about your options.

To see a website for one of the vaccines, click on the I CHOSE above.
