$10 Off at Allergy Superstore – No Minmum Purchase + $3.99 Shipping – Gluten-Free Foods & More

Allergy Superstore

Money Saving Mom tipped me off to a good online deal this morning: Allergy Superstore is offering $10 off with no minimum purchase required. Shipping is a flat rate fee of $3.99, and you can also get 5% cashback through Ebates. To get in on this deal, click here to go to Ebates and search for “Allergy Superstore”, then click through the “$10 off any order” coupon. If you’re new to Ebates, you will also receive a $5 bonus for signing up – learn more about online rebate programs be reading my article “How I save Money With Online Rebates”. (You can also click through Money Saving Mom’s link to get the deal, but you won’t receive cashback.)

Not only is this a good deal for those who need to buy gluten-free foods or hypoallergenic products, but for those without allergies as well. I bought one Almay Intense i-Color eyeliner pencil and a Thai Kitchen Rice Noodle Bowl and paid $3.99 total. Your total can be under $10 and it will just deduct the purchase amount – in this instance, I bought $9.28 in merchandise, which is what the coupon deducted. I’m not sure if I will receive the 5% cashback since I only paid for shipping, but I’ll be curious to find out. This was a worthwhile deal for me, because I am particular about my eyeliner – I stocked up on this Almay eyeliner about 2 years ago when there was a sale at Rite Aid, and as luck would have it, I was down to my last pencil when I found this deal. It retails for $7, so getting one eyeliner plus a meal for $3.99 was a fun deal for me!

First Shopping Trip of The Month

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Phew! What a busy week this has been! There’s a lot going on right now between work and a big remodeling project, but it’s been a great few days. I’m sad that I had to cancel my planned trip to BlogHer ’10 this weekend, but I knew there was just no way that I’d have time with my jammed schedule this month.

On Monday, I ran to Fred Meyer & Safeway to pick up a few things. Here’s my trip to Fred Meyer:

Fred Meyer trip, August 2nd

View receipt

Got:

1 gallon of milk – price: $1.99
2 packages of chicken drumsticks – priced at $5.34 and $5.06, respectively; final price for both: $10.40
5-lb bag of flour – price: $1.99
1 box of no-bake Jell-o cheesecake – for a birthday dinner – price: $2.85
1 carton of Sabra Artichoke & Spinach Hummus – regularly $2.99, used one free product coupon that I got through writing a post on Contest Corner – final price: Free!
3 tubs of Yoplait Greek Yogurt – I had several free coupons for this that I’ve been wanting to use for months, and I finally found the product at Fred Meyer! Regularly $1.19 each, used two coupons that I got through MyBlogSpark and one coupon that I got through the Pssst… Network. Final price: Free!

Next stop, Safeway:

Safeway trip, August 2nd


Total spent: $10.98
View receipt

Got:

Another box of no-bake cheesecake mix – I decided that I should get two boxes, since I wanted to make sure we had plenty; apparently, Safeway sells it for $2.99, so I paid .14 cents more for this one!
Half gallon of half & half – price: $3.99
1 cantaloupe – price: $2.00
8 ears of corn – price: .25 cents each, $2.00 for all eight.

Birthday dinner
Cheesecake

So on Tuesday night, I hosted a fun family birthday dinner. I forgot to take pictures of the main course – I often get so preoccupied when I have company that I forget to snap photos of what I made! – but I cooked both packages of chicken drumsticks, the 8 ears of corn on the cob, made a loaf of bread, and the no-bake cheesecake (This was a big hit at Jai’s birthday party, and it’s less expensive and time consuming than making it from scratch!). There was a lot of food – we had a houseful of people, and this is just some of what was left over the next day:

Leftovers

We’ve been eating BBQ chicken and corn all week. Yummy!
