I don't have those so have nothing with which to compare. <br /><br />Yes, I see the CVS and think that I must take advantage of that. Free coupons? <br />Even if you save all your cartridges and have any reason to drive in the town where OM is located, if not too far, you could still go once to drop off and then go back to redeem. There are rules and they can expire, so figure that in if you must travel to get there.

I am really trying to get the costs of everything down for Christmas and this is the way to go. <br />I have to tell you that my heart sings when I get a $10 off $50 at CVS. I save all my free coupons for that!Sonya Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985227040902078422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-28049967562752763912014-01-22T20:21:24.527-06:002014-01-22T20:21:24.527-06:00Meg B.,

My older grandkids are at the age it is hard to buy something FOR them, that is, something they might like to wear or play with. Oh, they have wants, just not in my league. They need batteries and socks. I still send school supplies gotten for free at OM. Besides, I use the free school supplies from OM for the Christmas Child boxes. Thanks for the comment.

And believe me, if I did play the OM game, my kids would definitely be getting gifts from there. Socks? Batteries? School supplies? I think those are great gifts!<br />I DO use Rite Aid and its Up Reward program, as we have one a mere 12 miles away. At the end ot Christmas sale, I spent down soon to expire awards on clearance items for Christmas gifts. Any future Up Rewards I earn will probably be spent on wine!

Then, just let them stack up while you work up to the rest. You will get a different savings plan than teachers. Next thing to do when you have the time, check on plans available for recycling. I get credit applied after each quarter. Individuals get it applied once a month, I think. Take it slowly with it, learn and you will enjoy the experience rather than making it a chore. Setting aside cartridges and toners is the first thing that takes no effort. Good luck.<br /><br />Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-30734556645810915372014-01-22T15:41:12.843-06:002014-01-22T15:41:12.843-06:00As much as I'd like to participate in savings ...As much as I'd like to participate in savings like OM, CVS, and other retailers offer, I just don't have the time/mental capacity to dive in just yet.<br /><br />GREAT job on the savings though!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
