The Children’s Place 15% Off Printable Coupon

I was excited to see this 15% off The Children’s Place purchase coupon that’s good through November 16th!
Printable Savings!

Ok, so you want to save money but you don't necessarily want to clip the coupons from the Sunday paper. No problem, here are a few sites you can visit and choose which coupons to print!
You can also visit the manufacturer's website to print coupons.
Later, I will upload a picture of how I organize my coupons, gift cards, etc, but if you are just starting, or don't have a lot of coupons, I suggest using one of those accordion files that you can purchase at the Dollar Tree (or any dollar store). Or, you can simply use an envelope to put them in. The most important thing is to BRING THEM WITH YOU!!
Put them in your purse, diaper bag, or whatever you ALWAYS have with you. If you change bags alot, keep them in your car.
There is nothing like getting to the store, seeing a "great deal" and STARING at the item, thinking, "I KNOW I have a coupon for this at HOME!!" Now, this may not seem like such a big deal when you are talking about a $0.25 coupon, but consider this:
I walk into Walgreens to get medicine for child with cold. Hmmmm, "You know, we are running low on Pull Ups." I walk down Baby Aisle, see Pull Ups for $15. Crazy price, but we need them! So I grab a package. I round the corner to get medicine, see Pull Ups on clearance......why????......because the manufacturer is changing the outside packaging of the Pull Ups! Ok, the same packaging that I am going to throw away. Ok, so I'll take it!
Pull Ups on clearance are $3.19/pkg. Yipeee!! But WAIT! I have a $3 coupon!! Whooty to the Whoooo! So I grab 5 packages of Pull Ups and head to the counter with 5 $3 coupons in hand. I pay $0.95 for 5 pkg. of Pull Ups! And my husband laughs at me for using coupons! Hmph!
Moral of the story: Always have your coupons with you! (You know as well as I do, someone would have snatched those up even for $3.19/pkg. if I would have had to leave and go back home to get my coupons!) LOL!

Loyalty Cards & E-Coupons
Ok, so the very first thing that you want to make sure and do is sign up for a Store Loyalty Card. You can ditch the actual card and just keep the keychain thing...makes it much easier especially if you are a busy parent on the go....cuts down on having to keep up with or search for cards!
Now, if you never did anything else, you can show/scan your loyalty card each time you shop and receive the lower shelf price that is advertised.
Buuuuut, if you want to take it one step further, you can "load" e-coupons onto your card and when you purchase the required item(s), your e-coupon will come off of your total! It's easy-peasy! It's just like cutting a coupon except, you just load it onto your store card.
Here are a few sites where you can load e-coupons onto your card:
http://www.cellfire.com/
http://www.shortcuts.com/
http://www.pgesaver.com

Target's Markdown Schedule
Yeah.....I have a problem. I don't know what it is about Target, but they must have some sort of VooDoo that Do on You because I can't walk my self out of there without a cart full of stuff.....unless ofcourse my husband is with me! LOL!
If you are a Target fan....Ok....!!Fanatic!! like me, then check out their markdown schedule. Not all stores follow the same schedule, but most do.
Monday - Kids Clothing and Electronics
Tuesday - Women's Clothing and Domestics
Wednesday - Men's Clothing, Toys, Health and Beauty
Thursday - Lingerie, Shoes, Housewares
Friday - Cosmetics, Housewares, Automotives
Target will typically mark down unsold clearance merchandise every two weeks. So, if you are watching an item and see that it has been marked down 30 or 50 percent, come back in another two weeks to see if it has been marked down further.

Always be sure to check your receipts for survey offers!! The offers are usually found at the bottom of the receipt. All you have to do is call in to the survey line, answer a few Quality Control questions (usually about your experience) and write your validation code in the space provided. Then, take your ENTIRE receipt to the store to redeem your offer! It's that easy!
Receipt offers range anywhere from FREE items (Sonic, Schlotsky's as examples) to percentages off (Old Navy, JCPenney)!!
Be sure to pay close attention to the date on the offer as some survey need to be completed within 7 days of purchase date.
I will post pics as an example a bit later.
