I used to do "freebie boards" all the time! They can be a lot of fun. This sounds like something I would be interested in, well not a freebie board it does rekindle the "freebie bug" LOL

Since you posted your freebie I thought I'd add mine Springhillnurseries.com is offering $20 of an order of $20 or more. In otherwords you can buy $20 bucks of stuff for just the cost of freight. Not bad!

Old thread but thought I'd post a new one or two I found.

Here is a simple one:

Borders $5 off $5 or more at borders.com

Promo Code: BR41925

Expriation Date: Unknown

If you pick something under $5 and choose the option to pick it up at the store then you pay Zero Zip Nada!!

I found a cute CD for my 4 year old for $4.99 before the discount. I couldn't believe the number of items under $5 I had to choose from

Not bad at all.

OK this one is a bit more complicated for the uninitiated but here goes...

Walgreens has a monthly booklet at the front of the store called the Easy Saver book next to the weekly sales flyers. This Saturday the "July" & "August" books will both be out and valid creating a situation where you end up saving more money than you are spending or effectively getting paid to buy their diapers, if you buy them on Saturday (IT MUST BE SATURDAY). Here is how it breaks down.

$ 17.97 for 3 packages of diapers at the sale price this week of $5.99 each

...........(Sale ends Saturday night so you must do this on Saturday)

- 7.50 using the coupon out of the July Coupon/Rebate Book

- 7.50 using the coupon out of the August Coupon/Rebate Book

$ 2.97 Final Price out of pocket for all 3 packages of Diapers

Note: you only need one coupon from each book the register will automatically adjust the discount to apply to all three, and YES they will allow you to use the coupons from both books though don't ask me why.

On its own this is already a fantastic deal BUT it gets EVEN BETTER as after you pay for the diapers when they hand you the receipt they will also give you a $5.00 coupon (called a Register Reward) which can be used to buy anything in the store except tobacco or prescriptions.

In other words after you deduct the $2.97 you just paid they are basically paying you $2.13 to buy their diapers on Saturday. Yes you have to spend $2.97 to start but then you could turn around and use the $5 coupon to either buy yourself some milk/bread or some other necessary item you would have most likly bought from somewhere this weekend anyways.

If anyone really loves this deal and wants to know how to make it into an even BIGGER moneymaker just let me know. It involves saving the register reward coupon you get from the diaper deal and using it to pay for another "money making deal" that is coming up next Friday at Walgreens.

Even if you don't need diapers for your family this is such a good deal it would practically be a crime for anyone who can not to go buy them to donate to a local church, women's clinic or other charity. And it really isn't as hard as it sounds. You just need to hand them 2 coupons one from each month's book available at the front of every store.

I'm just wondering about this deal...I looked up the easy saver book online and the coupon in there says "$5 off two packages of diapers" then it says limit 2 per coupon. Will it still apply the money off to all 3 packages? I guess I'm just confused. I don't want to go buy diapers and not get the right price because I usually wouldn't buy Walgreens brand.

Don't ask why but yes it will work. You don't even have to buy multiples of 2. Walgreens Coupons alwasy have a published limit but for some reason they don't enforce it. Ofcourse if you get the one stickler of a clerk that reads the fine print and refuses to do what every other store does then you would end up still getting all 3 packs for the 2.97 as the loss of coupon on the 3rd item would be $5 which is equal to the register reward coupon that would print after you paid. And 99-cents per package is still extremely cheap.

Let me know how it works.

I'm one that doesn't need them myself but still plan on doing it for the $2 profit, then saving them for a present or donating them. If you ever make it over to the KC side of the state I'd be glad to "donate" them to you. :thumbup:

One tip: You can do the deal multiple times by going through the line more than once but you can't use the first $5 coupon to help pay for more diapers or it won't print out another $5 coupon. The deal state one per customer so when you use the coupon it the register recognizes you have already participated and won't print out another one. Again I have never heard of a store refusing to let a customer do it more than once just because they saw them doing it before.

Good Luck

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
