Wahoo! More *Hot* Coupons.com coupons have reset! You should be able to print the $1/1 Ajax/Palmolive coupon again (use zip code 85712) and various others! I've also heard reports that the 34 oz Ajax Dish Soap is on a temporary price cut in some locations for $1-$1.79--making it as low as FREE after the coupon!
There are also a few other new Coupons.com Coupons:

Mine didn't reset :(
Well Shucks, they haven't reset for me. :(
The coupon reset for me! Wahoo! Thanks, Hip!
I cannot believe it, but the coupon reset for me too! yahoooo!
I searched a few zip codes and can't find the ajax/palmolive coupon. FYI the Welch's coupon has reached it's price limit.
I have a question -- unrelated to the dishwashing liquid. I read these money saving blogs on a daily basis -- it is truly wonderful how much we can save with some work, BUT I would like some suggestions on how different people make it even with the savings. We are a single income family (I stay home with our 2 children), we have no debt other than about 8,000 on a car loan -- we don't even have a mortgage! But even with all of that, we still live paycheck to paycheck. We do not live a luxurious lifestyle, the only added (unnecessary) expense we have is cable (50.00 per month) and we rarely eat out. I have been couponing for the past year and a half. I strongly desire to be able to put money back into savings for our families security, but at the end of the month, there is nothing left. I am very thankful for what we do have, and the blessing of two healthy children and a wonderful life with my husband, but even still, it is very frustrating to put all this work into couponing and still not be able to get ahead. I would just like some practical everyday tips on how people do it, how you get by. Ideas for stretching the budget, or some examples of your typical budget would be great. Any tips appreciated -- feeling very frustrated at the moment. Sorry to leave this in comments but I could not get your email link to go thru. Thank you!
First I would start by only buy things that you need. We tend to buy "stuff" because we have coupons or because they are free. Don't forget that if something is "free" you still pay tax on it.
Make the best of you grocery stores. Stock up on items that you use when they are at their cheapest. Freeze milk, cheese, ect. Buy your meat in bulk, then freeze.
Shop only when you need to. And make the most of your trip out. This will save alot of gas.
Part time job? I work full time. Plus I have a part-time job on the weekends. I am a waitress and bring home about $125 per 4 hour shift. I work 2 shift a weekend that is $1000 a month!
The Ajax dish liquid is on sale at CVS for $.88! This sale ends on Saturday.
Sale in on the smaller size. Not the size listed on the coupon. Look at your coupon closer
To Anon who wants tips on how to save more - I would suggest checking out any of Amy Dacyczyn's Tightwad Gazette books. They are what I read years ago that really changed my habits. Most libraries have them, but it is one book I feel definitely worth owning. There is one right now on eBay for $2.49 w/free shipping.
Anonymous searching for tips: (1.)we buy coupons on ebay that aren't in the paper, available from a clipping service, or printable: for example, i paid $1.50 (including shipping) for 10 $1-off 1 gallon Borden milk coupons. This makes it cheaper than the generic version normally, and much cheaper when it's on sale. Just be careful that you don't get caught up paying ridiculous prices for coupons on ebay that negate your savings. This doesn't help us get ahead; but it continues to cut the grocery bill. Think about the things you go through a lot of; we go through milk like water ;) . Also, check back every so often -- new coupons come out all the time. (2.) i put all my rebate/refund checks into savings; this allows me to invest in great deals that are just hard to justify. For example, once i could get 8 reams of paper for free plus a couple $$ profit after the rebate at Staples. It's great to have the paper and the money paid for it (esp. when you need paper!) but there's never a time i can justify spending $50 on paper. So keeping a savings account *just for this* helps us have the things we need around the house, and the money for them when the deal pops up. i won't have to pay for paper for a couple years, but we need it for business. This savings account's balance is humble, but it does the job. Of course, every rebate check goes in and stays in no matter how big or small, until a deal pops up that would return it. It's kind of like rolling register rewards at Walgreens ;) .
(3.) Do you have a chronic condition requiring meds? i have 4 kids, and we all have asthma. Check the webpage of your medication (if there's no generic equivalent or if you need the original brand) to see if there are any promos on the cost or the co-pay. When #4 was Dx last week, we got Rx's for drugs we haven't tried yet. i checked out of curiosity, all 3 had promos on their websites that will save us hundreds throughout the year if we continue with these meds.
(4.) We just switched this month from 7 years with Insurance Co. G to Co. S -- for $129 a month *less* than what G charged us for 2 cars, we are now insuring 2 cars, a motorcycle, and have renter's insurance. And the paperwork was far less ambiguigous than with Co. G. S might not be for you, but if you haven't in a while, call around. At least threaten to leave your own insurance and see if they magically "find" a discount they "missed" before (be ready to tell them who you're leaving for so they'll take you seriously). We were insulted and angered when we called G and told them we were leaving and they suddenly could give us the Defensive Driving discount that they couldn't apply before we called. Otherwise, we had no complaints -- just couldn't afford them.
I used the Ajax at CVS this week no problem...even got the overage!
To Anon with questions on how to save money and get ahead. Try bartering or trading within your community. I don't know if you live in a rural or city area, but there are bound to be opportunities to use the items you can get for free with coupons to trade for things or services that you cannot. Try gardening in the months when you can, you would be amazed at how inexpensive a garden is to plant and maintain, and the veggies that you won't have to pay for, even if only for a month or two, taste so much better than those at your grocery store. Also, try to get your clothing/toy budget down by shopping at yard sales, consignment stores and such for your children, they won't know the difference and you can save a lot of money this way. What about going through your stuff and having a yard sale of your own to make extra $$, even a couple hundred dollars twice a year could make a huge difference in your budget. Teach your children to be entrepreneurs, can they sell something that they have made or found? Sounds silly, but my stepson loves when I find candy/gum for free with my coupons, because he takes it to his school and sells it to his friends! I'm proud that he is learning to make his own money already. Try keeping track of every penny spent for an entire month and really look at where it all goes. It's amazing to see some of the things that we spend money on that we don't even think of when we wonder where our money goes.
To Anon who is trying to save more - we too are a single income family w/2 kids. Every few months we would have to take money out of savings to pay for expenses. February 2008, I read and started Dave Ramsey's budget plan. We are now saving money for retirement and have money set aside for other areas (soccer, clothes, etc). Reading his book changed our lives.
This coupon did not reset for me, I'm sad.
