Year End Rebate Madness Wrap Up

Posted by mainely on Jan 8, 2010 in Blog, Rebates | 0 comments

So last night I spent a couple hours going through my stack of receipts from the end of the year (September to December roughly) to match to rebates I need to get filled out, copied/scanned and mailed out. It took ages to sort them. First I pulled the ones that had items I needed for rebates. Then I sorted them by the rebate so I made sure I had all of them covered. The good news is I only didn’t buy a couple rebates worth of stuff (firelogs and a produce item more than $3). Which means I...

The Two Faces of Couponing in Maine

Posted by mainely on Dec 28, 2009 in Blog, Frugality | 0 comments

I happily live in Maine. I live on the border so I have the option of shopping in New Hampshire as easily, and often more easily, than in Maine. All the state asks in return is a usage tax to make up for loss revenue. Not a bad trade off most times. Take for instance the fact that Maine does not allow alcohol companies to require we purchase their product for a rebate. Which means if Coors or Bud or even Sutter Home offers a rebate good in Maine I can not buy the alcohol and still get my cash...

I Support Sarah Fox

Portsmouth Firefighter Sarah Fox was diagnosed with breast cancer on October 9, 2007. She was also 36 ½ weeks pregnant with twins. Twelve hours later the twins were born making a family of seven. After several setbacks Sarah fought through the many challenges and treatments and beat the odds returning to work in January 2009.

Just over a year later Sarah developed a pain in her hip which was discovered to be cancer. Sarah, her husband Matt and their 5 children and family are faced with the fight against cancer once again. The Portsmouth Firefighters Charitable Association are doing an amazing job of raising funds to help Sarah and her family out as well as supporting this brave woman and I will be donating 10% off any revenue generated from offers to this cause.
