Amy,
for some reason I couldn’t leave a comment on your other blog, but I wanted to tell you how nice I think this new one is on wordpress. I like the background, the colors, font, etc. Regardless of the format of your blog, you have some great free/discounted information. You’ve helped me save quite a few bucks here and there and for that I thank you! keep up the great work!

Hi, love your blog, but wanted to let you know that your left hand adds almost completely overrun your text making it hard to see the left margin. I don’t know if this is my firefox setting or if it is that the margins are off. but just thought I would let you know in case anyone else had trouble reading the entries.
I just wanted to say thanks for letting me know about the PF sweepstakes. I won 24 boxes of Milano cookies! I am so excited. I just started entering the sweepstakes you post and was extremely suprised by the win.
I am jealous hehehe I was seeing on another blog that they won that sweeps and was bummed that I didnt win!! CONGRATS!!!
Hi, I am trying to redeem the Kelloggs movie tickets…I have entered 12 codes and they were accepted however when I click to redeem for the movie tickets, it asks for a 14- digit code? Do you know anything about this? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! ~C

Love how easy it is to read your posts. Questions— You ordered some coupons from whole coupon inserts the end of July. Did they not work out? —- Can you recommend a site for pet food coupons and deals. Thank you. Veronica Massey.
Yes I got them on Friday that week and went and did some deals with them at CVS. She raised her rate though so I didn’t order them this time. I plan to just recycle a lot tomorrow for some.
How do I get emails from this site whosaidnothingisforfree?
Look on the right side of my page under the sunday coupon preview button and it will say “subscribe to Who Said Nothing in Life is Free by email”
AWESOME deal at Albertsons….AquaPod 8 packs are 10/$10. $1.50 off 2 in yesterdays Red Plum, makes them .25 each!! Wooohoooo, I got 20 packs for $5, what a deal!
Love the new site! Everything looks great, awesome job! Just one question, maybe I’m blind, but where is the search site button? I’ve scanned through a few times now and can’t seem to locate it. Thanks!!
I had to take it off while the All You magazine paypal button was on the left side. For some reason when you did a search, it went to paypal instead of searching.
The All You deal ends on Monday so the search will be back after that.
What did you need to find, I can search internally for you
No biggie, I was just checking to see if the Orlando IKEA was having any special events coming up in the near future. Thanks a bunch!
first off i would like to say thank you for all the awesome deals u have posted and all your hard work. just wondering if u have any codes to get the all you magazine really cheap?
Hi,
Not sure if you already know about the coupons on the Kraft website that are only good at Publix. Here is the link below:

Thanks for all your hard work!
Also what is your mailing address. I have some of the $3.00 internet printed Chef Request coupons that I still can not find here in Oregon, Ohio.
Thanks,
Brooke Gahler
Oh I would LOVE those
I am emailing you now with my address
Thanks so much

Hello,
I was wondering if you could tell me where the cheap Publix is in Orlando. Also are the prices different by a few cents or are the savings worth going out of my way a little bit for. One last question what competitor coupons do they accept. Thanks for you help and I love your blog I’ve told all my friends about it. Keep up the good work!

I found the Quantumatic on clearance at my Target for $4.24 and I had picked up $3off coupons from a blinkie at Publix over the weekend…. So a $1.24 , I was super excited I love a good deal !!!!
I want to thank you. Your site has helped me so much in saving money. Was wondering if you knew of anyone who will buy coupons from people or who I can sell coupons to . I have a large supply of coupons that either I dont use or will never be able to use by the time they expire. Thank you again.
Try either selling on ebay or you can go on http://www.hotcouponworld.com and try to trade them for coupons that you need!
Amy, I really like your site. I got hooked a few wks ago when you posted the Skintimate/Edge shaving gel deal which worked by stacking the Manuf Q and the Target Q. Didn’t see this on anyone else’s site at the time. Also like that you must be either up late or up early because when I check first thing in the morning you usually have something new up. Thanks a bunch!
I am usually up late and up early LOL
Thanks for reading my site, I truly appreciate it!

Hi Amy, maybe i am missing it but one thing i loved about your blog was the ability to search 9lots of times i see things, forget about it for a couple days then i go back and find it when i have time) but now that feature seems to be gone?
Like this morning i was going to read your post about weekly cinema and sign up but i have no way to search?
Am i missing something?
The search bar is a little down on the right side of my page
Hi,
Love your site! Always pull you up thru Swagbucks….but just recently when I put in “whosaidnothinginlifeisfree” your home page doesn’t come up. I must be doing something wrong…..I click on an old post and click on home page and get to you. Anyone else having to do this?
hmmm interesting… I know google was doing that but every time I have searched my site, the home page has come up. Thanks for letting me know though
Same thing has been happening for me.
I recently saw a site called Quibids, do you know anything about it and is it legit? It seems like it could be an awesome site if it is not “to good to be true”.
Love your site, I am on it everyday! Really looking forward to finding some grat Christmas present deals. I have already taken advantage of a few.
Have a great day!!
Never heard of it, sorry. I will try to look into it though for you.
Hey there – Do you have an entry on which circulars I can trash from the past? My stack is just WAY too big and I can’t find one! Thanks!!!
Funny you should ask this, I was just going through file folders today and planned to do an end of year clean up post very soon !!!
I just wanted to let you know that the step2 kitchen is on sale this week at Target for $59.99 the cheapest I have found anywhere. I bought this for my daughter for xmas.
I got the El Sentinels today and in them there were coupons for a free loaf of Archer Farms bread when you purchase $25 worth of grocerties (Target) I don’t have a Target close to me so if someone wants the coupons let me know and I will send them to you. I have 10 of them and they expire on the 15th of this month
How do you sign up to receive the El Sentinel?

Hi Amy! Have you ever seen a Walgreens Infant Care Booklet in our area? I have not and there are coupons in there that will give jumbo pack of diapers for only $2.50

Hi, first I’d. like to thank you for all your help and advice with couponing – it real is such a huge help. I was wondering if you had your blog connected to Twitter? And If so what is your Twitter name? I love using Twitter to search new coupons and couponing advice and would love to follow you! Thanks
Kristen
I did and it just stopped working one day and I need to find another way to connect it. I was using twitterfeed or something like that
I haven’t integrated any twitter accounts with the wordpress sites I am an administrator on, but I did look at this site which gives short descriptions of some plugins you could try:

Hope you can find a useful & well operating plugin to help expand your site’s viewing!
Thanks I will check it out !
Just want to say thanks for your hard work, you have helped save my family a lot of money. No sweat on the SB person I just read about, worlds full of them and some people just have nothing better to do. Thanks again!!!
I would like to start off saying I love your site, you help make my life so much easier. I wanted to tell you about my bad day last Saturday at Walgreens where I live in Tyler, Texas and if it was my fault oh well, things happen. I stopped in Saturday 4/9/11 to get the special on the Gillette Fusion Progide Razor for 9.99 and get $4 RB. I had a $3.00 coupon and $5.00 RB from Almay deal a couple of weeks back. I bought one small tumbler for .39 so I could use both the coupon and the RB. Everything did fine until it did not print me my new $4 RB. The manager informed me that if I use the $3.00 coupon that it will not print the $4 RB. I told him that is not what your policy says (which I did not have with me). He told me that it does. I told him that I would not shop there again because he was wrong. He told me fine and for me to have a nice day. Please let me know if I was wrong.
Thanks, Donna
It should have printed, their machine must not have been working. I would go back and return it or tell him to redo it so you can get your register reward.
I have a question. I am having trouble printing out Target coupons. It tells me to install the “software” when I go on the website, and so I do. Then it tells me that I am ready to print my coupons, but nothing happens. Do I have to install something else? And what is a plug-in? Does that have something to do with it?
Thanks!
Mandy
I had that problem for awhile. It finally just started working one day but honestly I don’t know what changed to make it work. Did you try rebooting your computer after installing it?
Wish I could help more
I haven’t tried rebooting my computer after I installing the program. I will give it a try! Thank you
Amy, I went to a few Publix today and the cashiers said that they are changing there coupon policy. Have you heard what changes are going to be done.
they have been saying this for months now and no official coupon policy change has been made yet, so we really don’t know what will change
Hey! I Love your website. I was wondering if you know where to get any snail mail coupons. I dont have a printer so this would be very helpful to me and my family. Thank-You!!
You can email companies and compliment them and you will usually get very high value coupons, sometimes even FREE coupons. Just find products you like and look on the packaging for email or phone info (or google it online)
Amy, fyi i think the TG LEE coupon reset. It will be on sale at cvs for 3.19- 1.00ecb-1.00 0ff tg lee q.
Oh cool… I emailed them weeks ago asking when they were going to reset it and never heard back from them
I have trouble with coupons.com, It won’t let me print on my computer and I have always used it. Are they under some kind of mechanical malfunction or is it my computer?
try reinstalling it

Congrats on winning Publix $8.00 Gift Card”
Question: Did Walmart change there coupon policy? Does every Walmart honor this policy differently? I went to Walmart today and they had Bic Razors on sale for $2.88/4pack. I was able to use the $3 off coupon from the 6/5 SS (I think) but they didn’t give me overage for these razors. Instead they wrote the price on each razor package on the coupon. They didn’t have enough razors for the amount of coupons that I had, so I went to another Walmart to get the rest. This other Walmart honored the overage policy. I just don’t get Walmart! Is this normal?
No that is not their policy, that was a cashier who didn’t know what she was supposed to do obviously (either trained wrong or just guessed on what she was supposed to do)
This particular Walmart is constantly trying me! I called corporate on them last week because they wouldn’t except one of my coupons because it had overage. They seem to want to make there own rules. I asked the girl why she price adjusted the coupon and she said her managers want them to do this now on all coupons that have overage. I think I need to call corporate again! LOL!
Yea of course they do, then THEY get the overage instead of you. They still get full face value on that coupon that they adjust down for you.
I have a question, when you say the Walgreens July Booklet, what is it and where can I get one? Is it free?
they will be in the front of the store, yes it is free (its a tiny rectangular booklet)… the cashier should know what it is
I do not have a facebook account. Alot of coupons say go to their website and click like. Do I have to have a facebook acct. to get the coupons?
you should really create one because you will get SOOO many freebies if you do… I am not sure of a way to do it otherwise (i am sure there probably is a way, I just don’t know how)
I was just wondering how you get all your Publix coupons for $5 off $30? I never seem to get one but every 6 months or so. Thanks for your help!
Hey! I just got back from Walmart where I found Velveta Cheesy Dinners (the ones comparable to Hamburger Helper) for 1.75 with a 1.75 peelie on them which made them free. Just had to pay tax. I bought 17 of them. They have chicken and Hamburger. Just wanted to pass it along!
I just recently started watching that coupon show..i could not believe that women would have hundreds of dollars of food and pay only a few dollars..i would love to learn how to do that..any suggestions. im a mother of six kids and really want to learn to do this..
follow my site daily and you will learn in no time… I usually spend around $3 – $5 per shopping trip
Hey Amy. I have a question about The Cupcake Factory groupon that I bought. I just called to place an order and ask about what areas in Orlando were free shipping and he said their new policy is you have to place an order of at least 12 cupcakes which is 4 more than when we bought this deal and more out of pocket. My question is can they do that even though it clearly states on the groupon free shopping?
I would tell them that they need to honor the groupon deal or you will contact groupon to get your money back. One of the other cupcake places wanted to change the deal on me and charge shipping and I said NO WAY… they ended up shipping free after all.
I did tell them what all it said and he basically said they have the right to do it. I also told them that I was gonna contact Groupon and he said that it would be like if I had purchased a deal for a restaurant and they raised their prices. I would not buy from this company even if they offered free shipping. They won’t be in business for much longer if they don’t change the way they treat customers. I guess it’s time to contact Groupon. Thanks for your help!!
YEP groupon will give you your money back and take it away from them!!!
and saying shipping is free on a deal and then saying its not free is NOT the same as a restaurant raising their prices!!! lol
Hi Amy,
I was wondering if winn dixie would take coupon for the free item that they offer…for example these week if you buy bounty and charming you will get some items free..for those free item Can I use coupon? Thank you
it depends on the store.. also if you do try it, have them ring up at least one item before scanning your card (it seems to help)

Hi Amy,
I have a question about pampers gift to grow. How do I send a referral for someone to sign up for the program? I have looked everywhere. Thanks for all you do. I read your post daily. Thanks a true reader. Linda
they USED to have a referral program but it ended. I asked them about it a month ago and it had ended about a month before that
Thanks so much Amy.
I hope you get this today.. but right now (not sure when it ends) Party City is having a clearnce sell… Alot of birthday party stuff is on sell for $0.50 and alot of other things. Great deals.
i was at walgreens earlier and saw that they have great lash big maybelline mascara 2/$5. Red plum has $1 printable for any maybelline mascara. Awesome deal. This is coming out of mcallen, tx
You are out of Orlando right? Where can I get the best deals on Disney/animal kingdom?
Disney deals are very hard to come by unless you want to sit through presentations to get free tickets. Disney really doesn’t have many deals because they know they can get people to pay their ridiculous prices!!! Sometimes they will offer FL resident deals but usually those are on passes and not single day tickets
Hi, Amy: I was on your site looking for recommended coupon clipping services. I didn’t see any and was wondering if I am missing it? Last week, I ordered a stack of Smart Source inserts, online, because I only wanted duplicates of 1 specific insert.
Unfortunately, I think I got scammed. I think. The coupons came from WA. Many of the coupons I was expecting, were not there, including Tyson, Allegra, and Colgate; a total of 40 were “missing”. The seller told me that her region has different coupons than FL, but when I searched a reputable database from her region, the coupons were listed. I’m bummed, but there isn’t anything I can really do.
Can you recommend anyone who offers whole inserts, not clipped? Thanks!
Manuf are cracking down on the sale of coupons and most clipping services are closing
amy…I live in here in orlando and got the 8/7 El Sentinel and just now realized that there weren’t any RP inserts in mine? I asked a friend of mine who got them in hers…anything I can do about this?
probably not since its a free paper…. if you notice it RIGHT AWAY and call they MIGHT bring you a new paper (at least they do with the reg orlando sentinels)
The Garnier free box of haircolor giveaway is live now

deal at Kmart-(just noticed ad this a.m.!):
Keebler cookies sale $1.99 ea.with Kmart card & Kmart coupon(in ad and on shelf),
Used my $2 off gal of milk coupon,when you buy 2 Keebler cookies (kellogg’s coupons that you sent me-thank you).
And used $1 off 2 keebler cookies coupon from Sun Aug 7 paper (wasnt sure if they would take all 3 coupons-but they did!)
Have you noticed that the mullers paper SS 8/21 and printable coupons say 1 per customer, the printable says 1per customer per product? Does this mean I can’t use 2 on the bogo sale thursday? I was going to stock up. I don’t mind if I only get one coupon/2 boxes but if I can only use 1 coupon per transaction that is going to suck.
yes sadly if it says that, you can only use one
I have 2 hang tag coupons for buy 2 get 1 free Classico sauce plus a ton of $1/2 mfg coupons. They are Bogo this week for $4.19.

Hope you can answer this. And Thanks!

I recently did the backpack deal through office max and I was wondering the best way to use my rewards. Can they be used online – or only in store? Can I use them towards gift cards to other places like restaurants?
Thanks so much for all that you do – you save me so much money
I used mine to get ink that I needed. In the past I have gotten gift cards but someone said they now have signs in their store saying you can’t do that anymore.
You can use them online or in-store

I was wondering if you recieved any of the free coupons from Purina from the promotion they had?
no not yet
I got my purina coupons yesterday, did you?
Just letting you know about a great deal at Publix on Coke Products. Nestea Iced Tea and Sprite (Coke Products) have hangtags that go with the B2G1 free sale that is currently going on at Publix. Nesteas hangtag says $1/3 and Sprite is $1/4. Plus if your store accepts Target as a competitor you can use the B4G1 free printable coupon. So the deal I did earlier was Buy 6 Nesteas use (2) $1/and one B4G1 Target coupon and only paid for 1 Nestea
And the Sprite deal is use (1) Sprite $1/4 with the Target coupon for 4 Sprite and 2 other varities of Coke and pay $2.78 for all 6 bottles.
Hey Amy,
I see you all over the Sentinel’s website today (you’re a local celebrity now!)! Congrats! I just wanted to thank you for mentioning the NCP awhile back and encouraging your readers to sign up. I did, spent a month or two answering surveys for them and they just emailed me saying I’ve been chosen and will be receiving a scanner soon! Pretty cool, hope I win lots of stuff from their sweepstakes and giveaways!!
Thank you!
hehe yea I wasn’t on the front page online until about an hour ago. My daughter says I am famous now hahaha
Hi Amy! I follow your site on a regular basis. You sure do help me find the bargains, and I appreciate it so much! I know you sometimes list deals from Living Social, so I wanted to tell you that the offer they are running now for Caffe Positano in Orlando is something your local readers may want to get in on. It is a $20 certificate for food & drink for $10, and I can tell you for sure that this restaurant serves about the best italian food and pizza in the area…at a great price!! It’s a great way to go out for a family pizza for half price. I just bought 3 certificates, and plan on giving 2 away for gifts! Thanks again for all of your hard work to help us save money on our shopping!
If its still being sold tomorrow I will def post it then with your recommendation on the post
Thanks
Hi Amy,
I would like to know how you stay organized. Do you keep a list of all the freebies that you request? What about rewards programs you are apart of and do you track your points? Thanks for all your work. Happy new year
