Here is a list of potential items at Walmart you can get for cheap, free or even make a little money too!
These posts should give an idea of how you can save a ton of money on everyday items and try some new ones that you wouldn't normally try at full price. I'll write more posts about each of these savings methods soon but until then here is a quick breakdown.
Ibotta-The big money making deals are made possible with Ibotta. You will probably receive bonus offers on top of regular offers. The example of current deals above shows how you can save even more with Mid Week and Weekend Bonuses. There are additional bonuses offered that span several of the mentioned weekly bonuses. For instance you may receive 3 Mid Week/Weekend bonuses over 11 days that offer $5/18 offers each and an additional bonus during those 11 days offering $10 for 27 offers earned. Bonuses vary by user and this is a great way to determine if an item is worth grabbing as well. I divide the bonus by the number of offers needed and add that into the potential savings. You don't ever have to pay for toothpaste again. I add the bonus into the formula to determine if I should grab it as a freebie or not. Doing this helps to see that it is worth while to go after the bonus. We will each get $5 if you sign up with my referral link. Thanks!
Shopmium or Alexa (Dowload app then more-lists-shopping-add items)-One or the other on the purchase of one offer. Should you clip the offer in both apps, you can use them on the purchase of two items. I will usually try to do different receipts so there is not question the offer hasn't been redeemed. Ibotta offers are a limit of 5 most of the time so being able to use Shopmium and Alexa is a great way to get more. Because I do so many Ibotta bonuses and the number of offers needed is based on "unique offers", I might buy one Irish Spring Body Wash during the Mid Week period and buy another during the Weekend period. I'll submit one to Shopmium and one to Alexa, being careful to watch for expiration dates. If I bought both at the same time it would only count as one offer. The offers usually reset in Ibotta a few times so if you buy one on Monday, about 24 later it will reset and can be purchased again, counting as 2 offers for that period. I don't want to go to the store that often but it is an extra trick to keep in mind.
Rebates-There are going to be lots of rebates and they are so easy to do now-a-days. No more mailing forms and receipts. It's all mostly done by text. The Voyage Nut Free Peanut Free Spread and Voyage Nut Free Hazelnut Free Spread count as two Ibotta offers each at $2.24 and the Aisle rebate is Buy One Get One Free. Combining Ibotta and Aisle make both items free! Here is the Glucerna rebate.
Swagbucks (SB), MyPoints (MP), Tada-Just like, Shopmium and Alexa, you can't use these three together. It's one or the other. You can buy products on separate reciepts and submit to each. If using with Ibotta and doing separate receipt, keep in mind the Ibotta offer will disappear and may or may not reset after scanning the first receipt. Sometimes these can not be used with Shopmium/Alexa. You need to read the fine print. I'll elaborate more later with examples but once you see the two different "fine prints" you'll be able to recognize quickly if SB/MP/TD can be used with Shopmium/Alexa.
That's all for now. I know these multiple apps can be overwhelming but it gets easier the more you do it. I'll do my best to make saving money as easy as possible!
