Easy way to Earn Gas Points at Tops!







While at my local Tops I was chit chatting with the manager and she informed me of a new way to earn gas points.  Tops will be giving their customers 10 gas points for every coupon that they use!  WHAT?!?!?  If this is true I'm pretty sure I'm getting free gas!

Now, I'm not 100% sure how this is going to work and I have a ton of questions that I will be emailing their Customer Affairs Reps and as soon as I get all the info I will be sure to post it! If you have any questions you want me to direct their way, please comment in the space below! Id love to hear from you!

Here are some of the questions ill be asking:


Is there a limit to how many gas points you can earn?

Will all coupons used go towards the total including Internet printed coupons? 

Do both store and manufacturer coupons count? 






Can you imagine?  CHEAP GAS? *happy dancin' in the kitchen right now*

Thanks to Coupons For Your Family and Swagsaver for some of these matchups! 






Welcome Back!

Who's ready to get back to saving money?

I took a break from blogging during the holidays.  With family in town and being the sole shopper in the house, I didnt really have a lot of time for extra curriculars, not to mention my 8 year old PC was on the fritz, (thanks to my MIL for a great new computer) I'm ready to get back to it!
A few things have changed here at The Crazy Coupon Lady.  First of all, I need a new name! Couponing has become really popular lately  with the TLC program Extreme Couponing.  This show is great and one of the extreme couponers featured has a blog called The Krazy Coupon Lady and it is a very popular blog.  These 2 ladies who run the blog have been on the today show, and have written a book about couponing.  Needless to say, I cant compete, and I don't even want to try.  So right now I am looking to change the name of this blog.  I would love any suggestions from my readers! I  am also thinking about teaching a class on couponing. Many readers and friends  have asked me to teach them how I do it and instead of trying to teach everyone individually how fun would it be to get everyone who is interested to all learn together?! Being the coupon nerd that I am, I know I would love it!  So please let me know if any of you would be interested in something like that!

I know its been a while but I hope you all keep checking back for all the great deals I will be posting!  For my local readers, I have some pretty exciting freebies and fun sales for Rite Aid and Tops that I will be posting later today, so be sure to brush up Coupon lingo and  your coupon policies!
