Here is the ad that I received at home this weekend! DOUBLE and TRIPLE coupons. Really, I cannot remember the last time I saw Triple coupons in Indianapolis, it has been a loooong time.
So search your coupon box for all those .75 cent coupons and see what you might get for free!
I hope to make a stop sometime tomorrow. If I find any goodies I will let you know!
You can check the ad here. Always check your local store to see if they are participating, different locations may have different coupon sales going on.
Why is it important to have an extra supply in your home? Even if there were no other reasons, the most important reason is that God has told us in His Word that a wise man has stores of choice food and oil. God's Word tells us that we should not use all that we have, that is the actions of a fool.
I can really see the wisdom in this instruction. Being prepared for the unforeseen, helps prevent worry and fear. With the uncertainty of our economy, the seeming panic that is being stirred up by the constant media coverage of the swine flu, there is enough fear in our country!
It would be a wise action, as we read in the book of Proverbs, to have extra stores of food in your home. That way, if there is a layoff in your home, or a general quarantine imposed upon us, or some other unseen situation, you will have no reason to panic, knowing your family will be well fed.

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (WISH) - It's like a huge garage sale geared toward families at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds in Noblesville. Both sellers and shoppers are benefiting.
Two-year-old Cole helped his mom, Erin Bradley, pick out items for his new little sister due in September.
"They have Carters and all these name-brand clothes for three dollars. I would say that you save 75 percent of what you normally pay," said Bradley.
Families consign their unwanted baby and teen items to Just Between Friends. If it sells, the family earns 70 percent. Just Between Friends gets 30 percent.
"It's unreal that you can make money with the toys that are laying on your living room floor," said Dawn Pfannenstiel with Just Between Friends. "With the economy, we have seen an increase in consignors -- 30 percent from this sale to last sale and an increase in sales as well."
Some items for sale haven't even been worn yet and still have the tags attached.
"Today we sold an Evenflow exercise saucer for five dollars. Those things are $40 to $65 depending on where you get them at," said Pfannenstiel.
First-time mom Jennifer Dotzert has a four-month-old son named Travis at home. She's searching for boys clothes that she doesn't mind getting dirty.
"For first-time moms, it's kind of nice because there's a big variety and you are not quite sure what you need. So instead of paying full price for something, you can kind of try it out," said Dotzert.
The sale continues Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds.
