I waited for the e-coupons I redeemed Monday to be removed from my card so I could add more. Normally cellfire only puts out new coupons every two weeks, but when I checked the site the night before shopping 8 more coupons were available for me to load. So I loaded the new ones and made my list. Those new ones did NOT come off at the register! How annoying:( And after I was so impressed they all worked like they should on Monday, lol.
You can find all the coupons I used here, here, here, here, here, and here as well as in the past few weeks/months newspaper inserts. Load your card up with e-coupons here and here.

can you "roll" the granola bar catalina?
should have added the fruit snacks to my question too. I don't want to do anything to prevent the catalinas from printing.
Most of the time catalinas do roll at Kroger, but I haven't tried to roll these particular ones myself.
I have been following your blog for about a month now, and I'm still always so impressed with how well you do. I need to wait to get all of my stuff after I read your blog. :) I did my first mega event and saved over 59 and spent 48. So, not bad for my first time, but I know after seeing what you do, I can do much more!! Thanks for all you do!
Sorry, one more question. How does cellfire work? Do they send you a lot of text messages, or do they send you some at all if you don't add to receive their texts and just e-mails. Thanks in advance!
Trisha, I have been doing this since 2003 so I have a bit of a learning curve on you;-) You will get even better the more you do it.
As for text messages from cellfire, I am not 100% certain but they shouldn't send you any if you opt out. I haven't heard anyone complain about that before and I haven't received any before. The phone I registered with is now deactivated so if they changed that in the past 6 months I wouldn't know.
You can also use your home phone number if you don't feel comfortable with using your cell. You wont be able to use the coupons you have to show though(for restaurants and other stores).
Question?? I am not understanding on some things how you use more then one E coupon?? Am I just missing something? I thought you could only load one at a time.
Usually e- coupons are put out by cellfire and shortcuts one at a time, but they don't expire for a while. Then new ones are released for the same item with a different expiration date-but before the 1st ones you added expire. You can load those too, as long as you have room on your card. That is how you end up with multiples.
You also end up with multiples because both cellfire and shortcuts put out some of the same e coupons, so you can add the coupon from both sites.
What great finds! I posted a link back to you (in a post, you are already on my sidebar) on my site (it will go up tomorrow). Thanks for sending traffic my way :)alla
