Welcome to Saving money for a rainy day and you can too!
I have recently discovered the wonderful world of couponing and saving money. I am saving so much money and having fun doing it too. I wanted to share this with all of you since we are in such tough economic times right now. I hope that you will enjoy this blog and will find enjoyment in saving money and giving to others like I have. If you are interested, please become a follower and leave comments.

Publix's new coupon policy
I am very disappointed in the new coupon policy that Publix has put out. The few extreme couponers who abused their leniency have ruined it for the rest of us couponers. My Publix now only takes coupons from: Food Lion, Save-A-Lot, Target, The Fresh Market, Whole Foods Market, and Winn-Dixie. This means I can no longer use those awesome $5/$25 or $3/$15 coupons that CVS or Family Dollar sends out. I will really miss those. They always helped pay for those things such as produce and milk that hardly ever have coupons.
The following is Publix's coupon Policy:
Publix accepts manufacturers’ coupons (limit one per item), Publix coupons (originals only—no copies), valid Internet coupons, and coupons from nearby competitors identified by each Publix store. (Competitor names are posted at each Publix store.) We will accept coupons from competing pharmacies for prescriptions only. We will not accept percent-off-items or percent-off-total-order coupons. We will only accept coupons for identical merchandise we sell. Acceptance is subject to any restrictions on the coupon, and we reserve the right to limit quantities. Manager approval is needed for individual coupons above $5.00. For a buy-one-get-one free (BOGO) offer, each item is considered a separate sale. We will accept a manufacturer’s coupon and either a Publix or a competitor coupon on the same item. Dollars-off-total-order coupons will be limited to one Publix and one competitor coupon per order. The order total must be equal to or greater than the total purchase requirements indicated on the coupon(s) presented.

Tshirt Review and Giveaway
Recently, I received tshirts from Crazy Dog Tshirts and their affiliate Nacho Mama Tees. I chose this black Cyberdyne Systems shirt (well, actually my fiance did), which if you didn't know is from Terminator, and this blue Coexist t-shirt. The shirts were both just as they looked in the picture. I was definitely impressed by both companies. The shirts arrived very quickly and in excellent shape. The only thing that disappointed me was the way the shirt fit me. It fit my fiance nicely (he is very thin) but was not as flattering on me, although it may have been the color, since black is naturally flattering. Also, the shirts were a little thin, which for us Floridians is a good thing, but may be a negative for others. I received a lot of compliments for the Coexist shirt. It is such a wonderful message. My fiance is a big Terminator fan so he was thrilled with his shirt. I have washed the shirts several times already and have not seen any signs of fading or wear.
Would you like to win a t-shirt for yourself? Well, you're in luck! One lucky reader will win a T-shirt of their choice from their affiliate CostumeSquad.com. The winner must pick a design priced at $16.99 or less. Make sure you leave a comment for each entry and include your email address. There are several ways to enter including:
- Visit CostumeSquad.com and tell me which shirt you would like to win (reminder: must be $16.99 or less)
- Follow Saving for a Rainy Day and You Can Too on Google Friend Connect
- Like Saving for a Rainy Day on Facebook
- Blog about this giveaway and leave a link back to this post
The giveaway will end March 26, 2011 at 11:59pm. The winner will be selected randomly by Random.org and will be posted on the blog, and Facebook page. The winner will be notified via email and will have 48 hours to respond to avoid another winner being selected.
A Year of Romance
“Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the man who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have you.... The one who turns to his friends and says, 'that's her.'” -Author Anonymous.

It has allowed me to try new things and enjoy old favorites at a low cost. We also purchased a four hour Kayaking session, which was alot of fun and a new exciting (but tiring) experience. They have a wide variety of Groupons, including massages, restaurants, outdoor activities, and many more.

Swagbucks!!!
Swagbucks is an amazing website that allows you to earn points for searching online (you can use it as your search engine just like Google). You can redeem the points for gift cards and other products. My favorite is the $5 Amazon.com gift cards for only 450 points. You can use as many gift cards as you want at one time. I have been a member for less than a year and have already gotten $100 in gift cards. This is one of my favorite earning sites. Now you can even get points for purchasing Groupon or LivingSocial Deals through the Daily Deals.
Looking to Spice up this Valentine’s Day?!?!
Keeping a sparkle in your relationship can sometimes be difficult when the day-to-day activities take over. My fiancé and I have to remind ourselves to make time for each other and not let work and school become more important than us. Valentine’s Day is a time when many couples try to rekindle their love and make time for one another. EdenFantasys is an adult store that can help you make this Valentine’s Day special. They offer games, books, lingerie, and lots of other things to suit your needs.
I love the candles they have. My favorite is the floating roses (priced at only $4.99). You could also get the Lavender sensuous bath oil and rose petal soap flakes . These products are great for an intimate bubble bath for two or to relax after a long day at work.
