Sorry to be posting this a day later then I had hoped to, but I took our daughter to Cape Canaveral to see the launch. I lost count of how many shuttle launches I have seen over the years, but this was her first one that was up close and personal at the Cape. We usually watch the launch from our backyard.

If you are lucky enough to live within 5 miles or so of an Albertsons, there should be a $5.00/$50.00 coupon on the front page of their insert. This coupon is valid 1/7-9 (Friday, Saturday and Sunday).

If you are tired of driving to the corner market just to purchase the Orlando Sentinel, why not sign up for home delivery (at up to 65% OFF)?

Read this POST from the other day for all the details.

You might be asking yourself, “How did Mark find out about this coupon?”. Here is how I did it, I went to the customer service counter at the Albertsons near Windermere, and asked for the form to fill out so that I could receive the weekly newspaper insert. I filled out the form right there, and THEY FAXED it to Boise, ID. It takes 2-3 weeks or so to receive the first copy. USUALLY the insert will arrive in our physical mailbox on either Monday or Tuesday. Sometimes it is not there until Wednesday. Which ever insert is in the Orlando Sentinel, that is the insert that I receive.

Use  $2/2 from Yellow Advantage Buy(store coupon)

and $2/2 from All the Trimmings (manuf coupon)

Get 2 FREE (except for the tax,  darn it)

The Coupons are:
$1.00/2 Glad Food Storage products, exp 3/31/11
$1.00/1 Nestlé Toll House Morsel, 10-12oz, exp 3/31/11

Publix has the morsels on sale for $2.98 (B1G1), which in reality really means that they are $1.49 per bag. Use the $1.00 off coupon in this booklet and they are just 48¢ PER BAG.

Here is how to enter for your chance to win TWO (2) of these coupon booklets.

There will be 7 winners to this contest.

1. Leave a comment, on this post only, any time between 10:00PM EST on 11/30/10 until 10:00PM on 12/01/10.

2. Winners will be decided on 12/1, and emailed by 12/2/10. If you do not reply by the 11:00PM on 12/2/10, you forfeit your coupons and I will contact another person randomly selected via random.org. Time is the essence here because you need the coupon during the week long sale at Publix. I plan to mail out the coupons on 12/3/10.

Good luck.

Yes, there WERE blogs that were based in Florida, some even had Florida cities in their name, but the majority of the information presented was based on out of state information and like the other sites, treated our state as a second class shopping area. Pricing was not the same, blogs that listed only the final price were using double/triple coupons in their equations, it was a frustrating time. Out of that frustration FrugalFloridian.com was born. Our main goal was to show people Where and How to Save Money, whether it be at the grocery store, shopping for other items at stores, and on things to do in the State of Florida.

Starting next week I will have the new format in place for how the Florida based coupon match-ups will be presented for Publix, Winn-Dixie, and Albertsons. This change relates only to the weekly inserts, and not the other monthly inserts.

You will still post when I find Blinkies, Tearpads, Booklets, etc. and other stores. Such as, showing you where to find high value coupons for the stores in Downtown Disney.

In the coming weeks I will debut a feature that I know our Florida based readers and visitors to the Sunshine State will appreciate immensely.

True to the name FrugalFloridian.com, we will continue to show you Where and How to Save In Florida.

I found a bunch of new Blinky coupons at several SW Orlando Publix stores on 9/16/10.

Here is what I found:
55¢/1 DanActive, 4pk, exp 12/31
55¢/1 Bumble Bee Premium Tuna Pouch, any, exp 12/31
55¢/1 Morton Coarse Kosher Salt product, exp 12/31

75¢/3 Pillsbury Refrigerated Baked Goods, excludes cookies, exp 11/7

$1.00/1 International Delight product, 16oz, exp 12/31
$1.00/1 Pillsbury Sweet Moments Refrigerated Desserts, exp 11/7
$1.00/1 Uncle Ben’s Original Converted Rice, 2lb+, exp 11/7
$1.00/1 Uncle Ben’s Brown Rice, any, exp 12/5
$1.00/1 Uncle Ben’s Whole Grain White Rice, any, exp 11/7

$1.00/2 Pillsbury Savorings, any, exp 11/7

$1.00/2 Pillsbury Refrigerated Cookie Dough, any, exp 10/10 OR exp 11/7
YES, the above coupons LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME, only the exp dates are different.

$1.00/3 Healthy Choice Frozen Meals, exp 10/18

$1.50/2 Johnson & Johnson Red Cross Products, exp 12/31
