Amazon Grocery Deals 3/13

I hope everyone remembered to Spring Forward last night/this morning. We're getting ready for our Sunday schedule, but I happened to see a few more good Amazon grocery deals. Remember to check out my March Amazon grocery post to see all the grocery coupon codes available this month. All of these items will be 15% off with subscribe and save, and an additional per cent off with a coupon code.

Some cereals.  The Kellogg's cereals will be 10% more off with code KELRTEC2.  That's 4 boxes for this price, which is great.  I will try to post my favorite Raisin Bran muffin recipe later.




Some other good random prices:


I'll be back with that recipe and some more bags for my 40 day challenge.

Bag #3 -- Hall/Coat Closet

If you're coming into this in the middle of my project, here is the link to what I am talking about.

I know it seems like copping out, doing all of these small areas within the house, but I've found I need to start by cleaning out storage areas so that I have room to put things when I am doing the rest of the house for spring cleaning.

This morning, I am tackling the coat closet, which doubles as an area to store just about everything. We keep board games, cleaning products, our carpet steamer, vacuums, and just about everything else you can imagine in here. I'm not finished with the clean-out yet, but I wanted to share the first bag that has been removed.

 Behold the rare "before" picture.  It's not as organized as it looks.  The games tend to fall out when it gets opened, and you can't get to any of the coats because all the mops and cleaners are in front.  We also rarely have room to hang other people's coats in here because there are so many in it.

My first step was to remove an entire 13 gal. garbage bag filled with winter coats, light jackets, children's snowsuits, all of which are perfectly suitable but haven't been worn in 2 or more years.

Destination: Harmony Clothing Closet in Nevada.  They accept used clothing and distribute it for free within our community on Saturdays and Monday evenings. 

Some other options:

• Salvation Army
• Goodwill
• LSI or MICA in your Iowa communities
• Bethesda Lutheran Church in Ames.

Bag #2 -- Linen Closet

If you're coming into this in the middle of my project, here is the link to what I am talking about.
 
I did this one yesterday, but didn't have time to post about it. This is an extension of the bathroom cleaning. I went through the linen closet where we keep towels and ALL of our stockpiled soaps and toiletry items, and filled an entire bag with extra items that we don't need.


Destination: St. Patrick's Church food pantry is on Saturday morning, so I thought that these would be great extras there.


Some other options would be:

• Local women's shelter.
• Your local food pantry.
• Your local church for distribution within the community.
• Take to your mom's group for a swap.

Amazon Friday Sale + Grocery Deals 3/11 ONLY

This is the Friday sale, so these deals are only for today. Many of them are extra great because they combine the March grocery deals that I posted about last week with the super low Friday sale prices.  Get them while they last, because many sell out fast.

Here are the best items that I see right now, but you can also check out the Friday sale for yourself.

Use code LPTONTEA and Subscribe and Save to bring these prices down from over $22, to $13 on sale, to $9 for six boxes of tea.



Prefer decaf tea? This one looks like an even better deal. 144 tea bags for just over $8. The cold brew bags come down to $21 for TWELVE boxes of the family sized bags.



These organic snack deals aren't on the Friday sale, though I don't know how long they'll remain marked down.  The fruit leather is 15% less with S&S, and there are 30 in the package. They are gluten free and dairy free, with no added sugar.



The PB&Js are organic, with 25 for the price. Save an additional 30% with code PLUMOR33, making them nearly 50% off with S&S, about $9 for 25 sandwiches.

Bag #1 -- Bathroom

Oh my, this bag was hard fought. I think the bathroom is one of the most neglected rooms in my house. I generally save the cleaning of the bathroom for last, push things around to clean around them, or throw them in drawers.  Other people in my household *coughcoughhusbandcough* throw empty containers back under the sink or put them away in the medicine cabinet with a few drops left in.

I actually did 3 bags** when I cleaned the bathroom.  I started a bag with expired meds, another bag (left side of picture) with unopened extra sample sizes of toiletry items for donation, and a third bag for garbage.  The donation bag isn't full but I will add to it as I purge from other storage areas.

**Pretty sure Target should pay me for the next 40 days, because every bag you will see will have their logo.
