Get a $25.00 Target gift card!
Since I’ve heard from so many readers who’ve had success with this one, I thought I’d post it again. Join Nicole’s Savings Advantage for 30 days at a cost of $2, and just for trying it out you’ll get a $25 Target gift card. This is the scenario that has worked so far:-Join and note the date your trial membership will expire, and jot down the email address and company phone number (found in the fine print).-You’ll get a welcome note in the mail in about 10 days. Fill it out and return it.-Within another 10-14 days you’ll get your gift card.-Give this membership an honest try, and if you prefer not to continue your membership remember to cancel a few days before the trial period is over.
Free photo days from Snapfish!
Nifty Razor Offer!
Best scenario:
Gillette Manual Razor = $7.99 (use the $4-off-1 coupon from the 6/7 P&G)
Gillette Body Wash (12 oz.) = $3.49 (use the $1-off-1 from the 6/7 P&G)
Pay $6.48 at the register ($11.48 – $5 in coupons)Receive a $5 Target Gift CardBottom line: $1.48 for the Razor AND Wash!
According to the Target ad, you could substitute the Fusion Razor for the Venus Breeze Razor at $7.99 (you could use the $2-off-1 coupon from the 6/7 P&G).
Additionally, if you didn’t want the wash, you could purchase the clinical-strength deodorant for $7.49 (and use the $2-off-1 coupon from the 6/7 P&G) or buy the 2.6 or 4.0 regular deodorant (and use a $1-off-1 ANY Gillette coupon from the P&G Year of Savings booklet if you have it). Any of these subsitutions will mean you pay more, but you still might end up with a decent deal. Just do your math first!

…who goes by the name Hot ‘N Horny on Twitter. Seriously? I can’t picture that our stuff would appeal to someone named Hot ‘N Horny. And then I got distracted by the ‘N thing. Why not Hot And Horny? Hot & Horny? Why ‘N? And how do you live up to a name like that? I can’t even imagine the wardrobe requirements of such a name.
