Amazon’s Policy for Expiration Dates on Grocery Items

Amazon's Policy for Expiration Dates on Grocery Items

Reader Carrie A. brought up a good question to me on Facebook about looking for a product’s expiry date on the item listing page on Amazon. Unfortunately there is no such way to see that but a little digging uncovered that Amazon has a policy of not selling a product to you if the product expires within 50 days.

Because there are some deep discounts on large quantity packages of food, keep this policy in mind. If you would not be able to consume the food within 50 days it might not be a good purchase, just in case the product expires in 50 days. I will still list the deals on here for large families or if you know a struggling family who could use a lot of food. Just something to remember.

If you received food from Amazon which expires in the proceeding 49 days then contact Amazon customer service for a full refund.

Why I contacted 9 other deal bloggers today…

February 19, 2015 6:59 pm PST, By Sarah Elizabeth Personally Sarah 0

Why I contacted 9 other deal bloggers today...I feel compelled to say something about this as it is becoming a problem. The above image is of code from another deal blog’s website which just copied and pasted a deal I posted this morning.

Copying and pasting my website’s original content to your own deal blog is copyright infringement.

Today I had to contact 9 other deal blogs for just blatantly copying and pasting content from this website. The website I have put 2 years of my heart and soul into. The website I wake up at 4am to update while I also still hold another full time job. Those coupon round ups take me HOURS too!

I am not going to name anyone that I had to contact today, but this is a real problem. If you are too lazy to post your own content to your website then you don’t deserve any readers. I am not afraid to file DMCA takedown notices if content isn’t removed.

DMCA takedown notice

I only have to run this query in Google’s search to find out who is stealing my content.

What does this mean for readers? Nothing really. 🙂 Only that you made the right choice in reading this blog if people keep trying to copy it. No other blog will give you huge lists of coupon match-ups or let you know sooner about price mistakes. Look how much this site grew last year!

I want to thank all my loyal readers for your support. All your comments, and notes have helped me stay sane enough to run this site to the best of my ability on small amounts of sleep. It brings me so much happiness to see you guys coming back.

Some engineers and I are working on some additional deal tools for you to use so I am so excited for those to be available soon! Stay tuned, big things are coming! 🙂

My Amazon Haul! (2/16/2015)

February 16, 2015 1:31 pm PST, By Sarah Elizabeth Accessory Deals, Hauls 0

Recently I began sharing the items I have snagged when the deals have been hot! Here is a little something I picked up which is still available!

I picked up this Nine West 9 Jacquard Crossbody Cross Body Bag, Black/White which is still available for $26.39 when you enter coupon code 25OFFPRES at checkout (reg. $59.00).

My Amazon Haul - Nine West Bag

Mine is gorgeous! I loved the print and the bag has so much room for storage. Unlike the last Nine West bag I got the strap is leather and not patent leather which lets it rest a little more easily on the shoulder.

In one of the photos here I am feeling the print because it is so tactile and distinct. The bag came wrapped up so nicely it felt like a $60 bag instead of the $27 I actually paid! I rated and reviewed this bag on Amazon for 5 stars! See it here >>>

Recently I began sharing the items I have snagged when the deals have been hot! Here are some of the items I managed to pick up in some of the recent sales for my subscribe & save order:

My Amazon Haul! (2/13/2015)

I totally snagged a lot of the great deals I talk about on this blog in my subscribe & save February order. My order this month:

My Amazon Haul! (2/13/2015)

12 bottles of conditioner, a brand name, quality razor with two refills, 12 protein bars, 36 boxes of tissue and 7lbs of detergent! Not bad for $52.53 (reg. $126.70) – which is a savings of 59%! I won’t need conditioner, detergent, or tissues for at least the rest of the year. 🙂
