Goodies in the Mail

Most of you know I've been at Home home in Louisiana for several weeks, and just returned to home-away-from-home in Georgia. I haven't been signing up for a lot of mail freebies lately, but even so I had several goodies waiting for me when I got home:

• A big, fat booklet of coupons ($120 worth) from Proctor and Gamble--I posted about this one back in January--you had to buy $50 of P&G products by a certain date, then send in your cash register tapes. I had begun to think I was never going to get this, but it may have been worth the wait. There are groups of coupons, arranged by expiration date--the earliest is 6/30/09, the latest is 12/31/09. I can't wait to use these, these are high dollar coupons, mostly for products that I already use.
• A Vocalpoint mailer with a sample of Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats, along with coupons--one for B1G1, five for $1 off
• Vocalpoint mailer with coupons for Kashi Go-Lean waffles--one for a free box, 5 for $1.50 off
• Kraft First Taste mailer, with one coupon for a free Oscar Mayer Deli-Creations sandwich, and one coupon for $1.50 off
• Sample body wash from Caress--this is not just a little foil packet, this is a cute little 2oz bottle of their new Evenly Gorgeous--sorry, this offer is now expired.

And the best of all:

• Package from Country Bob's, maker of Country Bob's All Purpose sauce, BBQ sauce, All-purpose Spicy Hot, and Seasoning Salt--this is for an upcoming review of their sauce on my food blog, Secrets of a Southern Kitchen. (eta: I did the review here) They when they initially contacted me about doing a review, they sent me two bottles of their All-purpose sauce. One I used, one I took home with me and gave to my parents for them to try. Now they've sent me one of the their cookbooks--a nice hardback book with a beautiful lay-out and scriptures on almost every page; and 10 coupons for free sauce--some for me and some to share. We did like the All-purpose sauce, (more on that later on my actual review post) and I'm looking forward to trying the Spicy Hot. You can go their site here to see their products and read the story behind the sauce--this is really inspirational to any would-be entrepreneur, and even better, sign up for their newsletter and get a coupon for a free bottle of their sauce for yourself.

I can't wait to get to the stores and get to use all of my free and dollars-off coupons--as soon as I eat my free cereal and use my free body-wash!

Until next time...
