My Western Family

While at a class in Ogden, Saturday, the hostess was telling me about the FREE stuff she was getting from Western Family. I looked into it a bit more and found this site, My Western Family. After you watch a little video you get to print a coupon good for a FREE item (this changes weekly). This week it is Western Family Apple Sauce. To find a store participating in this great deal click here (this looks like it may be available to most of the western US).

Thanks Katrina for letting me about this!

~If any of you out there know about any other great deals and would be willing to share either post a comment or email me and I will post it.

Oh, and by the way Applesauce is an awesome substitute for oil in your baking. I just add the same amout of applesauce that the recipe called for oil. It doesn't flavor it it just makes it moist AND lower in fat! LOVE IT!

Free For All!

Okay another cool feature I just discovered is the Free Items list. You can check it often for updates. What it is is a list of coupons for free items. These coupons simply say that the item is free. Since there is no need to use the coupon when the item is on sale, these coupons will work at any store. To limit redemption liability, manufacturers state a "Maximum price" on thier coupon ("Up to 4.49" -for example).To get the item free, make sure that your store's price really is under that amount.

Freebies July 2-8
