I love sweets, so when I received some of Orville Redenbacher’s Poppycock from ConAgra Foods recently, I dove right in.  In case you haven’t tried it, Poppycock is made up of some pretty amazing popcorn clusters with almonds, pecans, and a delicious caramel-like glaze.  I’m the only one in the house that eats sweet popcorn like this, so I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve been steadily working my way through the canister all on my own. ‘m not complaining!  Poppycock is delicious.  (Okay, I’ve talked myself into grabbing another handful as I write this.)

Poppycock is available in holiday canisters this season at most major grocery and retail chains.  The small (10.5 oz) cans are priced around $3.99, while the large (24 oz) cans are about $6.99.  Since the Poppycock comes in a pretty winter can, this can be a great gift or treat for the office, a teacher, or party.  Or, if you’re like me, a special snack for around the house!

ConAgra Foods has provided three cans of Poppycock to give away to you, my lovely readers. Each winner will get one canister.  To mix things up a little, this giveaway is going to run entirely on Twitter.  Not on Twitter yet?  What are you waiting for?!  Poppycock is up for grabs.  Definitely worth taking the time to create an account.  It only takes a minute to sign up.

So here’s how it’s going to work.

Sign up or log into your Twitter account.  (Are you following me yet?  I’m @FrugalinVA)

Then tweet the following message:

RT to enter to win a free holiday-themed canister of Orville’s #Poppycock from @frugalinva http://tinyurl.com/poppycock3

One tweeted entry per person.  You have between now and 10pm on Wednesday, November 11th to enter.  Winners will be selected at random. I will contact the winners on Twitter shortly after the giveaway ends, and the winners will have 48 hours to respond. If a winner does not respond within that time frame, a new winner will be announced.

Thanks for tweeting!

If you are here visting from the  Charlottesville CBS19 money-saving segment this evening, welcome!  You can find more information on the Giant deal I shared here, as well as the Veterans Day offers here.

If you’re in the Charlottesville, Virginia area, you can now catch me on CBS19 each Tuesday at 5:15.

New to Frugal in Virginia?   Let me take a moment to get you acquainted.

What this site is all about: Simply, it’s about helping you live well on less.  It’s about saving money without sacrificing lifestyle.  And yes, that’s possible.  I’ve seen it work for my own family.  When you cut costs in some areas, it frees you up financially to give more, save more, get out of debt, and spend on the things that really matter.  I help you achieve this by sharing grocery strategies, coupon clippings, free products, and frugal advice. It’s easier than you think!

How to use this site: Each week I share the deals for nearly 20 stores.  Just visit the Store Deals page to see the full list, and then click on the stores local to you.  You’ll see the store bargains listed by week.  Under each of those posts you’ll find the best deals and coupon match-ups.  Just a helpful hint:  Many of my readers get their coupons from the Sunday newspaper.  Instead of clipping each one, my site allows you to just organize each entire insert by date.  Then, since I share the corresponding insert dates within each weekly store post, you can simply go through the coupon match-ups for the the given week, just clipping the coupons you will use on your shopping trip.  It’s a time saver!

In addition to store deals, I post daily other money saving tips such as coupon information, frugal advice, freebies, and more.

There’s a “print” function under each post, allowing you to print a copy of the deals if you find that helpful.

If you’re new to the couponing scene, I suggest you read the Getting Started section.  This should answer many of your questions.

To make sure you don’t miss a single deal, you can subscribe to the email or feed reader service.  It’s a free and easy way to keep up with the happenings around here.

A few other mention-worthy points:

I love getting comments from readers.  Beneath each post you have the opportunity to leave a comment.  This is a chance to interact with both me and other readers.  There are plenty of other ways for you to interact with me and Frugal in Virginia as well:

Contact Me- I do my best to answer the emails I receive.  But if I don’t respond to yours, please know that I always read each and every one!
