If you have a Meijer close by there is an INCREDIBLE deal on Ziploc storage bags, freezer bags and containers. If you are a once a month cooking (OAMC) mom, you don’t want to miss out on this stock up opportunity. Here is what I got at the store today:

Ziploc Sale!

• 1 large round disposable containers
• 6 medium size square disposable containers
• 1 small size square disposable container
• 1 small size round disposable containers
• 1 xs round disposable containers
• 2 quart size freezer bags
• 2 gallon size storage bags

They were all $2 each so my total before coupons was $28. I used the following coupons:

• 7 $1.00 off 2 Ziploc bags or containers Meijer Mealbox
• 3 $.40 off 1 off any Ziploc bags from Sunday paper coupons: (Doubles to $.80 each)
  • $.40 off 1 (7/26SS) 9/19
  • $.40 off 1 (8/9SS) 10/3
• 2 $.55 off 1 Ziploc container from Sunday paper coupons: (Doubles to $1)

• 4 $1.00 off 2 Ziploc bags from Sunday paper coupons: (Doubles to $1)
  • $1.00 off 2 (7/26SS) 9/19
  • $1.00 off 2 (8/9SS) 10/3
• Coupon Savings Total = $21.40

Cost AFTER Coupons = $6.60

That is $.47 each!!! And what I love most about these is that they are reusable (at least most of it)! Now that is some savings.

If you have a Meijer near you, get out of the house and go get some Ziploc products. Don’t forget to print out lots of the Ziploc coupons off of  Meijer Mealbox before you go. Also, if they don’t have a product you are looking for in stock, remember they will give you a rain check at the cash register. My Meijer was out of the gallon freezer bags so I got a rain check. The  Meijer Mealbox coupons are good until 9/19 so just make sure you use the rain check before then.

Happy Shopping!

Thank you again to the Mom Select suite at Blogher for providing the Lands End backpack and Meijer for the gift card. Remember if you are looking for great back to school deals and don’t have a Meijer in your immediate area, don’t fret, they ship.

Lands End Backpack - Red

What are we giving away? First, I got a FANTASTIC Lands End backpack as part of my swag takeaway from the Mom Select suite at Blogher. I don’t exactly have a school age child so I thought maybe one of you fine folks could find some great use for it. It is a great backpack (I have hidden it from my husband so he doesn’t find a use for it).

Second, I have a $50 gift certificate from Meijer to give away. I figure that you can use it to buy back-to-school supplies, back-to-school foods or prepare for the August back-to-school menu. Either way, the gift certificate is yours to use however you wish. (Don’t have a Meijer in your area, don’t fret, they SHIP)!

Both items will be given together as one gift. Giveaway ends Friday, August 7th at midnight. Here’s how you can enter (you can enter up to 3 times using the different methods).
