Vote for a good cause

This is not a “deal” but I believe in supporting worthy causes as well.

Now Vote For The Hospital You’d Like To Receive A Second Starlight Fun Center™

Colgate-Palmolive is partnering once again with the Starlight Children’s Foundation to help seriously ill children cope with the pain, fear and isolation that often accompanies serious illnesses, such as Sickle Cell Disease.

During this year’s “Show the Love” campaign, Colgate-Palmolive will donate Starlight Fun Center™ mobile entertainment units to this year’s all 11 participating hospitals. The top 3 hospitals that receive the most online votes by 12pm (EST), February 27, 2009 will receive a second Starlight Fun Center™. Help spread more smiles and show the love to your community by voting for your local participating hospital!

Starlight Fun Centers™ feature a SharpAQUOS™ LCD Television, DVD player, and Nintendo Wii™. Whether children are nervously awaiting surgery, sitting restlessly during a long treatment or feeling lonely in their hospital room, these Fun Centers help them cope by providing endless hours of fun and distraction right at their bedside.

New coupons and a way to buy extras for free!

There will be two inserts in Sunday’s paper – 1 Smart Source and 1 Valassis/Red Plum (depending on your area)

I was not overly excited about anything in the Smart Source insert other than the $5 Claritin coupon because we go through that stuff like crazy and allergy season is coming up.

There will be a $1/2 Kelloggs Pop Tarts coupon in the Valassis/Red Plum insert if you haven’t been able to find the $1 off peelie coupons which will work with the $1/2 Target Pop Tarts coupon.

To see the full coupon list, go to The Coupon Clippers and click on “Tracker” Then, select Sunday’s date on the calendar. The coupons are usually ready for purchase beginning Saturday morning.

If you have started buying extra coupons to help you stockpile, you can also get them on eBay and depending on how “hot” the coupon is, you can get 10-20 for less than $2 shipped. If you click on this link and register for their daily deal alerts, you will get a coupon for $2 off your next purchase. Also, in case you didn’t know, you also get 3% cash back for every purchase you make on eBay when you use Ebates. (If you use the $2 off coupon and go through Ebates, you will be making money buying your coupons!)
