Some Walmart Black Friday Deals!

They may as well call it Black Thursday. Joining a slew of other national retailers, Wal-Mart said it too will open its doors nationwide on Thanksgiving night.

Not to be one-upped by Target, which recently announced it would open at midnight on Black Friday, Wal-Mart said it will kick off its Black Friday deals at 10 p.m. on Thursday.

"Our customers told us they would rather stay up late to shop than get up early, so we're going to hold special events on Thanksgiving and Black Friday," Duncan Mac Naughton, Wal-Mart's chief merchandising officer, U.S., said in a statement.

Starting at 10 p.m., Wal-Mart is offering doorbuster deals on toys, clothes and home accessories like $5 Barbies marked down from $19, jeans for less than $10, children's pajamas sets for $4.47 and a Black & Decker Coffeemaker for $9.44.

Then at midnight, the retailer said it will begin discounting electronics as well. Deals include a Samsung 51-inch plasma TV for $498 down from $649, a Kodak 14 megapixel camera for $49 and a Magellan GPS for $69, marked down from $89.

Another round of discounting will start at 8 a.m. and continue throughout the weekend, Wal-Mart said. Among those deals will be Goodyear tires starting at $59, a Vizio 42-inch 3D LED Wi-Fi HDTV for $598 and a selection of DVDs for $1.96 each.

This is the earliest look at the retailer's highly anticipated doorbuster deals, which are not usually released until the week of Thanksgiving. Last week, the retailer said it would give customers who sign up at Walmart.com or Facebook.com/Walmart an even earlier preview of its Black Friday sales.

Black Friday predictions: What should you buy?

For hard-core deal hunters, the retailer is also offering a downloadable map for all of its stores on its Facebook page so they can map out their route before they start shopping.

As the holiday season gets underway, retailers will have to work harder to motivate shoppers -- even on one of the biggest shopping days of the year, said Tom Julian, president of Tom Julian Group, a retail consultancy in New York.

"I expect there will be more Thanksgiving openings from other groups as a result," he said. "It's a marketing maneuver for those that really want to own Thanksgiving to Black Friday."

Best Buy, Macy's and Kohl's have already announced openings at midnight.

But getting shoppers in the mood to spend has been particularly difficult for retailers, as Americans feel increasingly protective of their discretionary dollars.

Last year, Black Friday sales totaled $11.8 billion, according to a report by research firm IBISWorld. This year, sales are expected to increase by only 1.2% to just under $12 billion.

Wal-Mart has also announced a number of additional shopping incentives in recent weeks, including price matching from now until Dec. 15, layaway on purchases over $15, free shipping on most Walmart.com products, no interest on Wal-Mart credit card purchases if they are paid for in full within six months, and a 10-cent discount on each gallon of gas bought at participating Murphy USA or Wal-Mart stations.

Information on Scheduling a coupon workshop

COUPONING WORKSHOP CLASS

Save Money in a Tight Economy


Couponing is growing in popularity due to TLC’s Extreme Couponing but it’s also becoming important for families because of today’s economy with rising gas and grocery prices.  The cost of groceries is on the rise and they’re not expected to go down anytime soon. 


The workshop will teach you the basics from how to find coupons to making your shopping list to maximizing your savings by using coupons on sale items.  The class will also cover organizing skills and what to look for in the store.


The workshop would also cover how couponing combined with sales will make your savings more and how you can save money even without using coupons. Budget saving tips & tricks are taught as well as the basics from how to find coupons to making your shopping list to shopping without spending several hours each week! The workshop usually lasts around 2 hours. I give out door prizes as well as some very helpful websites.


I would need a location to hold at LEAST 15 people or more and the cost is $225 for up to 15 people (the breakdown on that is $15 per person) and then anyone after that would be $15 per person. 


If you’d like more information about Couponing Workshops please call Teresa Robertson at 573-836-2133 or email her at couponingworkshops@yahoo.com

Items you can freeze!!!

Back by popular demand...here's a list of items you can stock up on & freeze!!!

Here it is...if you have any questions just ask. This is a wonderful way to cut your budget to buy items while they're on sale so you never have to pay retail again! I advise you to write on the item how many days until it expires before you freeze it (if the day you get ready to freeze it & you still have 5 days before it expires write a 5 on the container.) When you take it out of the freezer write the date it should sxpire (if you take it out today 6/16 then you would write 6/21 on the container.)

Milk-you can freeze the whole jug of milk. Freeze it for around 2-4 months. Just shake it up before serving. If it's a gallon jug it usually takes 2 or so days to thaw in the fridge.

Biscuits-you can freeze the can & all for about 2 months. Usually takes 1 day to thaw in the fridge.

Eggs-crack an egg & beat it up. Divide the egg between 2 cubes in an ice cube tray. You'll have a total of 6 eggs in a ice cube tray. Freeze these then pop them out of the ice cube tray and put it a ziploc. Date it & use them within 2 months. Just put in fridge to thaw.

Chips-throw the whole bag in the freezer & they will last for a month & not get stale. No need to thaw.

Pasta-put the whole box in the freezer & it'll last up to 1 year. No need to thaw before cooking.

Butter-put the whole tub or box of butter in the freezer. They last for around 6 months. Just put in fridge to thaw.

Sliced cheese-individually sliced cheese freezes really well. It'll last around 2 months. Just put it fridge to thaw.

Shredded Cheese-Just put the whole bag in there & freeze. Put in fridge to thaw.

Fresh produce-Buy fresh produce (not lettuce) when it's in season & freeze. Date it & put in freezer. The nutritional value is so much better for you. I wouldn't freeze stuff more than 6-8 months. Thaw in fridge.

Meat-usually freeze meat for 2-4 months unless you put it in the freezer paper like they do at a butcher shop. Thaw in fridge.

Crackers-Leave in box & freeze for 1-2 months. Just put in your pantry to thaw.

Prepackaged meals (hamburger helper)- Freeze them for up to 12 months. Just thaw in your pantry.

Cereal-Freeze the whole box for 6 months. Just thaw in your pantry.

Rice-Freeze the whole bag for up to 1 year. Just thaw in your pantry.

Cake, brownie or cookie mixes-put the whole box in the freezer for up to 1 year. Thaw in pantry.

Oatmeal-freeze whole container for up to 1 year. Thaw in pantry.

Baking supplies (flour, sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar, baking powder or soda, corn starch, salt or corn meal)-freeze in the original container for up to 1 year. Thaw in your pantry.

Coffee or tea-put the whole container in the freezer for up to 1 year. Thaw in pantry.

It's late so I may have forgotten a few items or if you know of another item please let me know. Have a great day! :)
