There are no Match-Ups from me this week. Why? Well I'm getting married today and heading to the Bahamas. I will be back on the 11th and should be able to get those match-ups done. Most of the posts this week will be automated, and I will not be able to respond to emails or comments until I get back. Here are a few sites I recommend getting match-ups from; Ann's Crazy World - Martin's Moms Need to Know - Giant Foods (Martin's) For The Mommas - Weis Military Wives Savings - AAFES & Commissary Hope everyone finds some great deals and saves a little money this week, I know I won't.

These are the Match-Ups I believe to be a good value based on the prices set up by this  post . I am using the Advertisement for the Hagerstown, MD, Martinsburg, WV, Waynesboro & Chambersburg PA area, your prices might be different. For example my store doubles coupons up to $0.99 some only double $0.75 or $0.50. Make sure you check your local store's coupon policy. * Proctor & Gamble ( PG ), Red Plum ( RP ), Smart Source ( SS ). There weren't many deals this week and I'm getting used to the new schedule at my new job so I didn't make any match-ups this week. Minus my wedding week this is the last week I'll have to send you to somebody else's match-ups. I should be able to get both the Martin's Match-Ups and the Weis Match-Ups done on Sundays now.
