We all know and love the Snuggie, that cool blanket with the sleeves sewn in that is a mainstay of the cable TV commercial circuit. We have a Snuggie ourselves and they are as cool as the actors in the commercial make them seem, and yes you do look like a monk when you have [...]

Since I’ve posted a couple of times recently about bad customer service experiences, I though I would post about a positive experience I had, or at least a negative experience that was handled appropriately. I’ve been neglectful in posting the follow-up, but once this was escalated the situation was resolved pretty promptly. I posted last [...] Anyone who knows me knows I’ve spent a lot of time in Walgreens recently. When they pay you to take stuff, it is hard for my obsessive-compulsive self to say no. Anyway, just when you thought you couldn’t milk Walgreens for anything more, the fine folks at SlickDeals have discovered yet another way to be [...] Walgreens deals just keep on coming! They released a new $5 off $20 coupon, and that coupled with the Easy Saver Rebate deals and the Register Rewards deals is making for some very good deals. Compare that to the crappy deals we’ve seen recently from CVS! Right now through Saturday (10/25), the following items will produce [...] Here’s a cool deal I stumbled upon this evening at Amazon.com: when you purchase $25 worth of items from Amazon’s baby store, you can get a $15 rebate by mail. The deal is from a promotion they are running offering a free 2 year subscription to a magazine named Cookie when you purchase at least [...] A while back I posted about a scam being perpetrated by Sears and Dockers on a recent rebate promotion. The issue I had was that instead of a “$10 reward card” as promised in a Sears press release, I received a crappy $10 off $50 men’s apparel coupon that was loaded with exclusions. Well, I’m [...] In the third installment and final installment of Scam Week, we will discuss another rebate scam, this time at the hands of Office Depot. Earlier this summer, I purchased an HP LaserJet 3050 printer from Office Depot. The printer was on sale for $199.99, and there were two rebates of $100 each advertised in the [...] Welcome to scam week here at CheapEncounters.com! This week I will be highlighting several scams that I have recently encountered that badly need to see the light of day. Some of my most memorable and popular posts have been about scams (see the FreeNEzy.com saga and the Reservations Rewards scam), so I thought it would [...] I mentioned in my last post how I was getting totally bored with CVS and their deals. Well, thankfully Walgreens is picking up the slack on their deals, and today and tomorrow (7/25-26) they have an absolutely incredible deal going on Walgreens brand diapers. It is a little YMMV (your mileage may vary), however my [...] Inflation is squeezing the crap out of American consumers – and now if you want to use Huggies to catch that crap, that will cost more too! Consumer paper products company Kimberly-Clark, makers of well-known consumer brands like Huggies, Kleenex, and Cottonelle, announced last week that they will be increasing prices on items in their [...] |
