Have you paid much attention to the sign outside Walgreens that tells you what is on sale? Now not quite the LED's above provided by LED's Magazine, but you get the idea. You really should watch these signs because each Thursday they advertise specials that are only on sale that Thursday through Saturday.

Two more important signs at Walgreens are the signs signaling clearance or discount. In the DFW area, orange tags represent clearance and DEEP discounts. Yellow tags or signs represent a price drop marked by percentages. These signs could read, 25%, 50%, etc.

When visiting more than one Walgreens, it is important to make notes on what you see that is on clearance. Make a note even if it is out of stock. It has come to my attention that Walgreens is not marking the clearance prices on all the clearance products. You can take these products to the register for a price check and more times than not, the clearance price will appear rather than what might be marked on the shelf.

Being a work at home mommy of 4 can be hard sometimes but with the internet, its a piece of cake. Oh man...cake! Yeah, yeah, yeah focus T.Rochelle! With school starting back, many of us are running around like chickens with our heads cut off trying to settle on a schedule and a menu.

I was sitting in my favorite chair this morning and got to thinking about all of the things that kids can either get for free or at a great deal. With Christmas rapidly approaching, we need to make a list of all of the deals and discounts we can find. With that being said, today's posts and Tweets will be dedicated to the children. There will still be job listings and savings for the grown ups but look for things kids might enjoy as well!

Do you guys remember the Brady Bunch? Who didn't want their own Alice? I grew up on reruns of the show and I wished Alice was there to do some of my chores. Now we can all have our own Alice. You have to be thinking, "In this economy? Girl you done lost yo mind?" Or something quite similar. I am going to show you how to get your own Alice.

Alice will not cook or clean and like Florence Johnston, she don't do windows. Alice does however, assist in managing your household items as well as helps you find bargains. Alice sends you alerts, informing you that you may need to purchase certain items in your home. Alice even gives you the opportunity to purchase these items online and have them shipped to your home.

Signing up for the service is easy. Alice is in its Beta stages. When signing up, Alice asks the sex and ages of the people living in your home. This allows Alice to personalize certain items to put into a list for you. If you do not purchase some of these items, feel free to remove them. You can also add your favorite brands to your list. Alice partners with many major brands, therefore you can purchase these items quite easily.

Alice will monitor how often you purchase the items on your list and notify you when its about time for you to make another purchase. If you run out sooner or later, you can adjust Alice to your pattern of use. Alice also applies coupons to your purchases when a coupon is available. Alice also keeps a budget for you so that you can monitor how much you spend on those items.

The makers of Alice are also working on adding a feature that allows people to network with other Alice users. Alice will also have a feature that will allow people to automatically ship items when Alice feels they are running low. Don't worry, shipping is always free with Alice!

Just popping in to share the wonderful Walgreens news. Walgreens has started issuing a $5 off $25 purchase coupon. If you are an avid Walgreens shopper, this is music to your ears. This coupon is good for June 10th and June 11th. You also want to keep in mind that this total is NOT before coupons. The purchase amount of $25 or more must be before taxes and after all manufacturer and Walgreens coupons and discounts. Limit one coupon per customer per offer. To use this savings online, enter the discount code JUNE.
