.99 cent Laundrey Detergent @ Albertsons!!!

My good friend Mindy at The Bargain Squad found an amazing deal!

Albertson's has the 68.75oz bottles on sale for $2.99 each, limit of 2. Go to Arm & Hammer and click "Get Coupons" in the upper left corner. Fill out your name and email and then load the coupons. The very bottom coupon is for $1.00 off any Laundry Detergent. Close and re-print this coupon twice. Combine with the double coupons that came in Tuesday's mail and you will pay .99 per bottle of laundry soap!!!

I am so excited for this, as we only use this brand! (we use the fragrance & dye free kind... we have sensitive skin) Looks like Ill be printing coupons from every computer I can find! :)

Swagbucks

Swagbucks is a search engine that rewards you for using them. (I use it instead of Google). You get points randomly for searching. For every so many you get, you an redeem your "Swagbucks" and buy something. 45 SBs is a $5 Amazon.com gift card, 130 SB is a $10 Starbucks Gift Card (my personal fav!). Anyways, you can save them up and get larger items, or redeem for $5 Amazon GCs over and over. Its pretty easy and since you use a search engine daily, why not earn $ from it? Click on the logo above to sign up!!

Oh- And this is a referral based website, so you should get people to sign up under you and then you can earn what they earn! (But it only goes one deep).

I have earned $40 in Starbucks Gift Cards so far!!
