Family On A Budget

Giant Eagle is currently featuring a catalina deal on Viva Single Roll paper towels. The deal is good from now until August 7th. There is a $0.60/1 coupon coming in this Sunday’s paper (or a $0.85/1 coupon if your region was one of the lucky ones). Use this for a great price on paper towels.

Remember, Giant Eagle only allows 12 like coupons at a time so you can do this deal 3 times in one trip. You will have to do each transaction separately as this cat will not print multiples.

I have been following the demand for silver and regret that I didn’t start buying it last year like I wanted. Silver is currently undervalued and worth looking into now. If you are careful, you can get silver eagle coins on eBay at market values. I always check the feedback from those selling and also like to take advantage of the “best offer” feature. If you lookup the market price of silver and add 15% for markup you should be buying at a reasonable price.

Here is a sample of today’s offerings on eBay.
