Whenever free Magazine subscriptions come around I almost always order them, if only just for the random coupons you can get from them. I just recently got a $10 off Thomas Train coupon from Parents' Mag that I stacked with a Target coupon to get a $24.99 toy for only $2.49. And I've gotten loads of free pasta from Ronzoni coupons that I've found in mags. My point is, it's worth it to get the subscription for free and look for the Qs in it, even if you don't read the mag yourself.
So here you can get a free subscription to American Baby Magazine!

TRU deal for me.
Today I bought this Graco pack n' play. I've had my eyes out for deals on these and found something similar on Craigslist for $40. However, this one sells in stores for $69.99. I had a 20% off one baby item coupon, plus $11 left on a gift card that I got for free for making a baby registry. So I paid about $46 oop for this. $6 more than CL, but it's not used, I don't have to drive to someone's house to get it, and it is in the pattern I actually want. Plus this month TRU has 10% back for rewards card members, so I will get $4.60 back as a coupon later too. Seems like a pretty good deal to me!

Old Navy clearance clothing haul!
I hit up Old Navy yesterday. They had an unadvertised sale for extra 50% off clearance prices, PLUS I had a 30% off coupon that I printed (expired yesterday). I cleaned the place out!!
I spent $108. I tallied up how much everything would have cost if I'd paid full price and it was $517!!!
I got basically a whole wardrobe for baby #2, a bunch of clothes for Penny, a few shirts for myself, and some nice sweaters and undies for DH.
Some of my favorite deals were maternity pants for $2.50, flip-flops for .17, and Jon's sweaters for $4.37. But really everything I got was insanely cheap. Check out the pictures of my haul!!

Saved 47% at Kroger
Let me first just say that I LOVE to grocery shop on Friday nights. That makes me lame, okay. But the best mark-downs are at this time, and there is absolutely no one else in the store, so I can shop leisurely and no traffic jams. The one cashier that is working isn't too please when I pull up with my cart full of food and a fistful of coupons, but she copes.
Tonight I spent $84.56 and saved $75.37!!
