Free Mentos Gum at Smith's!

If you got the Sunday newspaper yesterday, get out those Mentos coupons!  If you didn't get the paper, see if you can round some up!  You can even buy coupons--my favorite vendor is My Coupon Hunter.  You can buy them for around $.12 each.  The coupons were for $1 off two bottles of gum.  Well, great news!  If you get your hands on some of those coupons (and there were two in each paper for a total of four gum bottles), you can get free gum this week at Smith's (and next week too, supposedly)!  The Mentos 12-piece bottles are part of the Mega Sale, and when you buy 10, they are only $.50 each.  Use your $1/2 coupons, and they are FREE!  I went to the Smith's on 90th just west of Bangerter today, and they had tons!

Happy shopping!

Great Toy Clearance at Kmart.com!

Just wanted to alert you to a pretty great toy clearance at Kmart.com.  I just found it today, so some of the great toys have sold out, but there are still many to choose from.  One of my favorites is the "Precious Places Swan Castle" pictured above.  We have had this for almost a year and both of my young daughters (5 & 2) play with it all the time.  It is very sturdy and comes with lots of things to entertain them.  Regular price $47.99, on clearance for only $18!  Check out all the deals under the "clearance" section in Toys!  Be sure and add the items you want to your cart for final pricing.  Some of the higher-priced items are coming up an additional 50% off in the cart!
