TIRED OF PAYING TONS OF MONEY FOR GAS???

Want to fight the rising gas prices? Well, www.gasbuddy.com is one option. I first remember using this site in early 2008 as gas prices hit nearly 4.00. GasBuddy.com allows you to enter your zip code, then provides a list of the lowest gas prices in the area. It will also list the highest prices so you can try to avoid these gas stations.

If you are planning a trip, there is also a "heat map" that provides the areas where gas prices are the highest/lowest so you can determine which area you would like to stop for gas.

There are other money saving tips out there for gas, and if you would like to submit one, please email me at pennypinchingpaul@gmail.com! Happy Saving!

Free Item at Sheetz!!

I recently received an email from Sheetz indicating that they are giving away a free 16oz bottle of Hint flavored water. Although I do not know anyone who has bought this product before, the word FREE sounds good to me. All you have to do is present your MySheetzCard and the coupon is pre-loaded! The coupon expires on 3/7/11. If you still have not signed up for your sheetz card, you may do so by visiting MYSHEETZCARD Happy Saving!

Free MP3s at Amazon.com!!

A great suggestion was recommended by Bruce that everyone should check out. Amazon.com will allow you to download 100 free songs/albums from their website. The list of songs can be found here. http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/dmusic/digital-music-album/ref=pd_ts_pg_1?ie=UTF8&pg=1

Although they may not all be the most popular songs, many of these songs are great! I was able to discover a great REM song I had not heard of previously. When Bruce suggested the site, he mentioned a great Sister Hazel compilation of 20 songs! If you are a big music fan, checking this out is a must!

A special thanks to Bruce for recommending this money saving idea! He also runs a blog that you should check out --> http://thepastorworeplaid.blogspot.com/

If you have an idea you can email it to me at pennypinchingpaul@gmail.com, and as always... HAPPY SAVING!

Harris Teeter Super Doubles 2/16-22: Trip 1

I want to apologize for not posting in a while. We finally had the chance to go to Harris Teeter for their super doubles coupon week. We were able to get $78.89 of food for $19.91 (an overall savings of 75%). They were all out of several items we were wanting to purchase, so we will most likely have a second or third trip. You can submit your success story along with a picture to pennypinchingpaul@gmail.com and i'll post it! Happy Saving!

Free Roast Beef Sandwiches at Arby's

Have you ever noticed on the back of Arby's receipts that if you call/logon and give your feedback within two days of your purchase that you qualify for a free Regular Roast Beef or Beef 'n Chedder? Well... I didn't until this past weekend.

I saved the receipt and visited the URL on the back of the receipt. (http://www.arbys.com/survey) and after spending about five minutes entering information and answering questions, they gave me a validation code that I can use at any Arby's to receive my free sandwich

It is important to note that you have 30 days after the completion of the survey to receive your free sandwich. This means that in order to continue receiving free sandwiches, you must do this at least once a month. I haven't tried it as of yet, but you may need to make an additional purchase I.E. a drink to receive another receipt. I shall find out soon!

Happy Saving!
