Many of you have asked us on Facebook how to do the coupons.  First of all, we do get newspapers through our local subscriptions. Esther gets 11 sets EVERY SUNDAY. Keri gets 6 sets EVERY SUNDAY and does a lot more e-couponing.  

I took this information from http://www.athriftymom.com/ -- If you are interested to get multiple newspapers: REMEMBER.. do not use coupons if there is no sale, clearance, catalina, or doublers.  If there is a sale and you feel it was good enough price for you to spend on each item, then go for it. I usually try keep it under $0.50 cents each. With the exception of some items that is soo expensive and rarely find for so cheap, then I purchase it wisely. But again, ONLY with SALE, CLEARANCE, CATALINA, GIFT CARD DEAL, STORE COUPONS, AND/OR MANUFACTURER'S COUPONS! 

For example: the Pull ups I just bought a few days ago I knew I wouldn't be able to find it so cheap sometime soon and I needed them- so I pricematched the Walgreens AD at Walmart and bought some along with the coupons I had.


This is for the Boise area. If you live outside the Boise area, you can call your newspaper area and see if they have any good offers on extra Sunday newspapers.

The Idaho Statesman just came out with a new Coupon Cents Subscription Offer
You will get ;
(1)  7-day subscription
(4) Sunday Only subscriptions
For a total of 5 Sunday papers ( those are the ones with with coupons in them)
All home delivered for a total of 5 Sunday papers for only $3.00 per week, or $12.00 per month(4 weeks) PLUS TAX. That means you will get 11 papers a week for $3.00, that is about .28 cents a paper.  News stand price for one Sunday paper is $2.00 so this is a fantastic deal home delivered.
To start your subscription call 377-NEWS (6397) and ask for the “athiftymom” special offer. Subscriptions need to be pre-paid and can be ordered in 13, 26 or 52 week increments. I would suggest you lock in this price for the 52 weeks, The price is locked for the term. When it expires you will move to the next best rate. So it is definitely beneficial to sign up for the 52 weeks and lock in the rate.
I am not sure how long they will run this offer so, get in while you can!
Now that is a Thrifty deal!
