Think you're money-wise, do you know what a
Cheap Cheaper
- "Catalina deal" means? No? Then you are like most shoppers, but never fear I am here to let you in on a secret.... Catalina deals AKA "cats" -as in "hep cats" because all couponers [sic] are kewl [sic] by nature </geek> -are coupons for say $10 off your next shopping order.
- You earn money by buying certain products. They are called Catalinas after the marketing firm than runs the offers.
- The SECRET is that you are able to save and make money by using coupons on the products you purchase in order to earn the "cat" or buy items on sale that ring up full price BEFORE discount thereby earning you a "cat."
Here's the deal:
Buy 6 Act II popcorns $1 each
($3.38 x 6 = $20.28 towards your catalina total)
Pay $6.06 and get a $5 cat!
Net is only $1.06 for 6 boxes of microwave popcorn!
I know these will fly off the shelves and by Thursday the price spread might now be there anymore.
Another tip I've read online is that some select packages of Banquet frozen items have coupons in them (possibly a $1/2 Act II coupon!) so if you have any of these in your freezer then check it out!

Free Spay/Neuter Packages! (for pets, silly!)
In recognition of National Spay/Neuter Month, and with the help of
Cook County’s Spay/Neuter rebate, Tree House is offering free and
discounted spay/neuter surgeries for cats and kittens, dogs and
puppies beginning February 1st as part of our annual “Sex and the
Kitty” campaign. Each participating household can receive two free
services.
Tree House encourages the public to not only spay/neuter their pets
but to practice TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return), the only effective and
humane way to manage feral cat colonies. With an estimated 700,000
stray and feral cats in Cook County, this must be a priority if we are
ever going to reduce these numbers.
Free and discounted services (two per household) include:
FREE spay/neuter surgeries for the cats of low-income guardians
FREE feral cat packages
$10 spay/neuter surgeries for other pet cats
$40 discount off all spay/neuter surgeries for dogs (50 lbs. and under only)
Tell Me More!
Call 773-227-5535 to schedule an appointment. Prices and services vary
depending on your pet’s situation and needs. Services include
spay/neuter, vaccinations, parasite treatment, pain medication,
micro-chipping, and virus-testing.
In addition to the free Spay/Neuter program, Tree House helps promotes
the importance of Spay/Neuter all year through an educational outreach
program and our Feral Friends TNR Program.
