Five Things You Shouldn’t Pay Full Price For!

Welcome New Day Cleveland viewers!  I hope you love to save money!  If you do, I can help you out!

Be sure to “like” me on Facebook to keep up with all the latest deals!

 

Today on New Day Cleveland I shared,  Five Things You Should Never Pay Full Price For.  Here’s a recap.

 

1.  Personal care items:  Personal care items such as  toothpaste and shampoo are must-have staple but lucky for us, we can easily get these items for pennies on the dollar and sometimes even for free.  Even if you are not an avid couponer it’s easy to snag these savings at your local drug stores by keeping an eye on your local ad and my website.  If you haven’t already, head over and snag a FREE full-sized bottle of body wash from CVS (if still available).

3.  Magazines:  Cover prices can be really high so instead, grab a low cost subscription to your favorite magazine.  You can save as much as 90% off of the cover price if you shop around.  Each day, I post a magazine of the day.  Today your can snag a years subscription to Elle for only $4.49 which makes it only $.37 an issue!  Or head over and snag Family Circle for only $3.99 which is only $.33 an issue!

You can also grab a BOGO FREE subscription to the ever popular All You Magazine!  Want to shop in the store?  Here are three magazine printable coupons that you can use.

$0.50 off on All You Magazine $1.00 off your favorite magazine $1.00 off on Real Simple Magazine


2.  Clothing:  
Head for the clearance racks as soon as you head into any store.  By buying your clothes off-season you’ll be able to save a ton on money.  If you have a favorite store that you like to shop at be sure to head over to their Facebook page or website and sign up for their newsletter.

4.   Restaurants:  Find local places where you can score great deals or that offer half off appetizers or free kids meals.  Signing up for email alerts from your favorite restaurants will also keep coupons regularly in email.  Keep your Entertainment Book or other special coupons in the car with you so you’ll be able to slash your bill even when eating out on a spur of the moment.  Don’t forget, you can snag a $.50 ice cream cone at Burger King!

5. Cereal
:  Each week there are deals for cereal at your local grocery store.  Once you pair these deals with a coupon you’ll really see the savings stack up.  While $1 or less is a stock-up price for me, below you’ll find a good cereal deal that you can find at CVS for just a little bit more.

Cheerios – $2.29
$.50 CVS coupon from in-store coupon machine
STACK with
$.50 Cheerios printable coupon
or
$.75 Multi Grain Cheerios printable coupon
= as low as $1.04

Champagne dreams, flapper dresses, and a night for Champagne dreams, flapper dresses, and a night for Broadway in Cleveland? Count me in! ✨🥂  Last night we stepped back into the Roaring Twenties for media night at @bwaygatsby at @playhousesquare!  My sister and I snagged our 1920s-inspired outfits and made a whole evening of it. We started with happy hour at @encorepsq, the stylish bar right across the street from Playhouse Square, which had the perfect swanky Gatsby vibes. I love their happy hours specials too! Then we grabbed a quick dinner at Sushi En before heading into the theater.  And wow... this show is BIG Broadway. Think stunning costumes, gorgeous sets, incredible choreography, and all the glitz and glamour you'd expect from Gatsby. The production is visually spectacular and brings the lavish world of Jay Gatsby to life in a way that feels larger than life. If you love classic stories, dazzling performances, and a little Jazz Age sparkle, add this one to your summer theater list. ✨🎭  The Great Gatsby is playing at Playhouse Square through June 28 as part of the KeyBank Broadway Series. Tickets are currently still available and can be purchased by calling 216-241-6000 or online at playhousesquare.org.  Who else loves a themed night out? 🍾  #thegreatgatsby #BroadwayCleveland #BWYCLE #BwayGatsbyTour
🎭 Did you know you can take a FREE behind-the-scen 🎭 Did you know you can take a FREE behind-the-scenes tour of @playhousesquare? 🎭 Everyone needs to add this to their Cleveland bucket list!  Free public tours of Playhouse Square are offered on the third Saturday of every month, and they're packed with fascinating history, hidden details, and stories you probably never knew. You'll learn how this incredible theater district went from nearly being demolished in the 1970s to becoming the largest theater restoration project in the world.  Did you know that Playhouse Square is the second-largest performing arts district in the United States, behind only Broadway in New York City, with 12 performance venues throughout the district?  One of my favorite parts was getting to see everything up close and in detail without the usual crowds. From the stunning architecture to the behind-the-scenes stories, there were so many things I've walked past for years without realizing their significance.  If you've ever attended a show, or even if you haven't, I highly recommend taking this tour. It's a whole new way to experience one of Cleveland's most iconic treasures. ❤️  Have you ever taken a Playhouse Square tour? Be sure to tell a friend! 🎟️👇  #PlayhouseSquare #ClevelandOhio #thisiscleveland #CLE #clevelandevents
Another Put-In-Bay giveaway coming soon! ☀️ Summe Another Put-In-Bay giveaway coming soon!  ☀️ Summer is officially here, and what better way to celebrate than a girls' day at Put-in-Bay! 🚢💙  We hopped aboard the @millerboatline for a scenic ride to the island and rented golf carts from @esputinbay to explore all the fun spots around the @visitputinbay island. Did you know you can save money when you book them together? Check out the E's Golf Cart & Miller Ferry Put-in-Bay Discount Package when you reserve at least one day in advance!  One of the reasons we love Miller Ferry is that it's the most affordable way to get to the island, and it's the only ferry that lets you bring your car. Plus, E's Golf Carts is conveniently located just around the corner from the Miller Ferry drop-off.  The weather was absolutely gorgeous! We spent the day shopping, cruising around the island by golf cart, enjoying lunch at The Keys, relaxing at the little beach on the tip of the island, and taking a short hike to soak in the views.  Put-in-Bay is such a fun destination for both groups and families. If you're bringing kids, be sure to check out the highly rated caves on the islands, play a round of putt-putt, visit the Lake Erie Islands Nature & Wildlife Center, and stop by the Butterfly House for a colorful, family-friendly experience. (I usually just avoid the downtown area on weekend evenings if I'm visiting with kids.)  Who's ready for an island day trip?  #putinbay #MillerFerry #GirlsTrip #OhioAdventures #LakeErieIslands
🦖 My niece, brother, and I had a ROARing good time 🦖 My niece, brother, and I had a ROARing good time at  @gocmnh on Sunday for DINO DAY! 🦕✨  A big thank you to @realgoodfoods for inviting us to this fun family event! We explored the museum, checked out life-sized dinosaurs, enjoyed hands-on activities, crafts, face painting, and interactive exhibits throughout the day. They even gave away COUPONS!!  Of course, one of the highlights was sampling Realgood Foods' dino chicken nuggets! I personally eat Realgood chicken - there is always a bag in my freezer. It is high protein and low carb! I eat a lot of chicken and I'm picky with my brands, but I enjoy this treat when I need something fast and tasty!  It was such a fun day filled with dinosaurs, learning, and making memories together. 🦖❤️
