PDF printing coupons


UPDATE: I just got back from walmart, I got 5 ice cream sandwiches for free, they are in the single serve section and they are only 1 dollar. If you print off the $1 off any blue bunny, you score free ice cream. I only did five because I didn't want to appear greedy. hehe I will however print a bunch of these and get 5 for free every time I go there! good til 10/31/09

Do you ever wish you could get around that pesky per print limit. The answer is printing PDF. If you have the ability to print to PDF you are in luck. On my computer I have Acrobat installed which allows PDF printing. I was excited to see a Blue Bunny coupon available today, however the coupons available were either for bomb pops or quarts of ice cream I was unable to print the bomb pops coupon so I went to the Blue Bunny website and signed up for their emails. Within a minute I got a welcome email and a 1 dollar off any BB item. When I clicked print it allowed me to select a printer, I choose PDF. The best part of doing this is any time for the rest of summer I can print off my PDF for more savings! The coupon does not expire until 10/31/09.

Notes on PDF printing. PDF printing will not work with coupons.com, smartsource.com or any other site that prints a pin number on the coupon. PDF printing a pin encoded coupon would be fraud and gives couponers a bad wrap. Printing a bunch of non pin coded coupons is like a license to print free money!

Here is a link to my PDF Blue Bunny $1 off any item coupon. Print it early and often!

Make Some extra Cash!


This may seem crazy, wild or too time consuming but I do it often for extra cash. Cell phone provider T-mobile has pre-paid phone kits, the kit includes a phone, sim card and 10 starter minutes. On limited occasion the kit comes with a free $25 dollar refill card. So what do I do with these phones? Sell them on eBay! I just finished purchasing the samsung t429 phone. I sell the kit in one auction and the refill card in another.

Typically I purchase a phone for 40.00 + tax....they ship for free!
List the phone for .99 List the refill card for .99
This model phone sells for up to $74.00 (offer free shipping)
The refill card sells for $19-$22 (I just email the pin number)
between ebay listing, FVF,and paypal fees, I usually make about $20-50 a kit.

T-mobile allows 2 phones to be purchased per address every three months. I ship two to my house, 2 to work, 2 to my parents house. So six phones every 3 months. I also order the phones one at a time linking to the T-mobile site through Fatwallet.com. You get a $5 rebate per phone/order for linking through them. If you order 2 phone at a time you only get $5 but two order spaced just 5 minutes apart gets you $10! Fatwallet sends the rebate to your paypal account after 90 days, you do have to log in and request it.

I know this seems crazy, I would recommend starting slow, Just order 1 phone and see what happens. T-mob offers the free $25 prepaid card about every two weeks. Before purchasing a phone I check eBay to see what they are selling for. I found one today (Item number: 110402112040) that sold for $74


Good Luck

Do you need a NEW FREE Phone?


I have been with Sprint for almost ten years. I has been a mostly love relationship, I have never had any serious problems. In the past few years I have gotten a new phone every year for FREE! Phone technology changes every day and I am the kind of person that wants the newest, latest and greatest. It just so happens to be that time of year again so I thought I would write about how I get FREE phones every time. The secret is to avoid the Sprint store, Best Buy, and any other phone retailer. I do go to the sprint store to check out my eye candy, I pick out what I want, then I leave the store. I go home and call Customer Service and ask for the RETENTION department, once connected I tell them how much I LOVE SPRINT! I have never had a problem, but when a visited the AT&T store the other day I spotted a phone and they said I could have a great deal on it for switching. I then tell retentions that I so treasure our relationship I wanted to call and see if they could match the offer.

At this point if they refuse to play ball, tell them you are switching to AT&T ( this usually straightens them out, if not hang up and call back) I tell them I want the phone for free and no longer than a 1 yr contract. They usually can not give you the phone completely for free but they can give you a big fat service credit to offset the price of the phone. Once you have come to an agreement ask them to waive the shipping and activation charges. You will receive your new phone in a day or two. Once activated I take my old phone back to the sprint store and take advantage of their trade in program. They will give you between $25 and $75 for your old phone.


I do this every year for both of the phones on our account. A funny story....Last October we were in San Diego, our 1 yr old was screaming bloody murder, so we handed him a phone (palm centro) that shut him up. But, in the process he put the phone in his mouth and some how fried the phone:( When we got home, I went to the sprint store to see if they could fix it (it was only 4 months old, so still under contract) It was un fixable, so I called Retentions and told them I was not about to pay full price ($399) for a phone when I could just pay early termination (150) and go get one of these for free from ATT. He said no dont do that, he put a $100 service credit on the account and told us to go back to the Sprint store and pick up a new phone. I went back and the $399 price was knocked down to $250, we were then eligable for an instant upgrade credit(150) making the phone only $100. With the service credit free. Then the best part! I was able to turn the broken phone in for the $75 turn in credit. So the boy chewing on the phone actually made us $75 dollars!
