Recipe of the Week, All-Day Meatloaf & Vegetables

Hi to all you Cheap Chicks that are tired of SNOW!
I do not get home until 6pm most nights, with the weather we have been having lately - it has been close to 7pm! I must have meals for weekdays that I can go from pot to table in 15 minutes or less! This is a good one for that.

What's up in the coupon world this week?

Get some Great P&G Coups HERE and a $10 coupon savings booklet from Box Tops HERE.

4 Inserts in today's paper: 2 Smart Source, 1 P&G and 1 Valassis!

The sales at Meijer and Kroger look normal, which is to say, nothing like last week! We should all be stocked up for a while!


The ECB's and RR's at CVS and Wags look good this week, I'll post later if there are any don't miss deals.

Have a great Super Bowl Sunday.

Hi to all the Cheap Chicks!
This recipe has been in all the new issues of the popular magazines but for those that missed it - last week in the coupons in the local newspapers there were coupons for the pineapple and the Minute Rice.

Groupon is in Cincinnati

Today's Groupon is for Slatts Pub (HERE) in Blue Ash
$30 coupon for $12 (60% savings)

What is a Groupon?
This is how they explain it:

"Groupon is a group coupon. Each day, they will offer an unbeatable deal on the best of Cincinnati: restaurants, spas, sporting events, theater, and more. By promising businesses a minimum number of customers, they get great discounts. They call it "collective buying power."

"If the minimum number of people (30 for today's deal) sign up by the end of the day, you'll get a printable gift certificate in your inbox the next morning that you can use whenever you want (well, at least until the deal expires-today's expires in one year). If not enough people join, no one gets the deal (and you won't be charged), so invite your friends to make sure you get the discount!"
