A few of my favorite features I have only seen with ABCmouse; for my smallest child to be able to break each word up by syllables, record his voice, play it back, and then pronounce the word correctly was great! My oldest loved to give each lesson a try to earn tickets. Then cash the tickets in for rewards and prizes for their room, hamster, fish, and etc. Collecting tickets kept them both playing and asking for more learning time day after day!

This is a limited time offer.

Staples Online Printing: How to Print Documents

This post may contain affiliate links or ads. Read my privacy policy and disclosure policy here.

October 2, 2019 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Coupons, Online Shopping, Printable, Retail 1 Comment

Staples Online Printing –Everything you need to know to print documents online, including how to upload printables to Staples Printing Services. Have them shipped to your home or pick them up in the store! Includes directions to print B&W or color documents, portrait or landscape orientation, how to print on cardstock and cover stock for durability, AND Staples printing prices!

Staples Online Printing

Staples printing services is my first choice for all my printable needs on Frugal Coupon Living. There are many reasons, but these are my top three.

First off, Staples Online Printing offers AMAZING quality. The printables I give you on Frugal Coupon Living often need to be printed on cover stock with bright colors for the best results(after all, we aren’t dull.) I find that the quality that Staples online printing delivers is great and very vibrant. If you’re looking to print posters, you’ll want to use Staples poster printing to get that vibrancy and quality.

Second, the Staples printing department is great. The employees aren’t just helpful —they’re friendly, too! They actually love when I use their services and look forward to the different documents I submit for printing, since they stray from the regular old business documents they normally receive. They now know me by name and by brand.

Finally, I save. After all, this is Frugal Coupon Living! I save money on both printer ink and cardstock. Those goods can get pretty pricey, so I leave the supplies (the ink and paper) to the Staple pros to provide. It keeps me sane and keeps from a place where I’m low on printer ink all the time! (It was all the time before I was using Staples online printing services.)

How to Print Documents from Staples

We have tons of free printables for you on Frugal Coupon Living. Here are few places to find these prints!

It will take you less than five minutes to upload your first document to Staples. Yes, five!

Enjoy the video above for directions on how to print at Staples. The video steps have changed some but mostly are telling off all the choices you have when it comes to printing at staples. The following steps below are up to date as of March 2021.

How to Print at Staples

Have your PDF, Word Document or printable saved to a folder on your computer.
Sign in or create a Staples account.
Return to the Staples Printing Service Page.
Scroll down to Document printing.
Click the red button, start creating.
On the next page you can choose between simple print and professional print. Choose professional print as there are more Staples printing options.
Click start project under professional printing.
Browse your files and upload your document from your computer.
Next choose your paper size from letter, legal, ledger.
Also select your document orientation from portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal).
I suggest checking scale to fit and unchecking double sided.
Click Next.
On the next page choose your paper type: I like premium/specialty paper in white coverstock 110 lb. This is great for crafts for prints you want to frame.
Choose next.
Choose your color options: color or black and white.
Choose next.
Choose your binding option including comb, coil, cover binder, 3 ring binder, or stapled: In most cases, I choose no binding.
Choose next.
Choose finishing including lamination, folding, cutting or hole punching. Since I like control, I choose no finishing.
Choose next.
Choose your print options. This is where you can rename your document and choose your number of copies. When it comes to prints I want to frame or craft with, I often choose 2 copies so I have ab ack up for mistakes.
Choose delivery (you can still pick up in store). You will be promoted to sign in again or create an account if you have not already signed in.
Next choose your delivery option including ground, express or expedited. Or choose pickup in-store including standard or express. Standard has never gone me wrong, especially on smaller print jobs. If you choose pickup in-store, make sure you find the store closest to you entering your zip code.
Click the red button, add to cart.
Follow the steps for a secure checkout.

You can choose to ship to your home or to pick up at your local store. Pay online and show your invoice when you pick up (I just show the order number on my phone at pick-up.) The order invoice will arrive in your email inbox.

Staples Printing Cost

Printing to Staples is extremely affordable. I print often and have a lot of content, so I rely on Staples online printing to deliver amazing quality (they always do!). I find Staples Printing Costs to be far lower than the cardstock and printer ink it costs me to keep up with my demand at home.

A break down of pricing…

While you can get as low as $0.13 for a color copy, I am never printing more than 50 pages. I typically spend $0.53 for a color copy. Usually, I’m printing around 10 at a time.

I also choose a 67 lb card/cover stock media, so this adds around $0.10 per print. This typically puts my ordercost around $0.60 to $5.00!

I’d recommend you opt for free shipping to your local store for pick-up. This is often the route I take, unless I have an extra large order and want my order to come straight to me. Shipping starts at $9.99!

Staples Printing Coupon

There are a few ways to get Staples Printing Coupons.

First, be a loyal costumer. You can sign up for Staples Rewards here.

Staples Rewards

Benefits of Staples Rewards include $25 off Print & Marketing Services in store each year! Additional reward benefits include free next-day delivery on orders over $49.99. My favorite perk is earning $2 back in rewards per recycled ink cartridge (up to 20 per month.) That means you could earn up to $40 a month in recycled ink cartridges! Ready to join? Sign up here!

Second, pay attention to your receipts. Often during in-store pick-up for a document, I am given a coupon for my next Staples printing need. I just stack those coupons in my car for next time.

Third, look online. You can look for Staples coupon codes and promo discounts on Savings.com.

look forward to hearing about your experience with Staples online printing. I’m sure they will quickly become your number one place to print your documents!

Back to School at Sam’s Club

Disclosure: This post is sponsored by Tyson Foods, Inc. All comments and opinions are my own.

Anyone feeling the effects of the first bell? Today, my kids officially went back to school. What that really means is I can finally sit down with you and share more about how to make your back to school season easier.

Did you know that Sam’s Club sells a great variety of Tyson products, perfect for easy and convenient back to school meals and snacks, including State Fair® Corn Dogs and Jimmy Dean® Frozen Breakfast items? With five kids in the house, two who can fend for themselves (or whip something up for their brothers), this is incredibly convenient. I wish to rewrite that sentence. With five kids in the house and a husband who is always hungry, this is incredibly convenient for a mom who cannot always get breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner in the oven quickly. These snacks are so easy even your kids and husband can make them in a quick minute!

My kids were incredibly excited to try Jimmy Dean Pancakes and Sausage on a Stick (20 ct.) Breakfast is always a struggle for us and my desire to get protein in the children before school sometimes falls flat to a bowl of cereal and milk. This pancake and sausage combination feels more like a Sunday morning breakfast and I feel confident feeding their potential with protein before school. Pop in the microwave and voila, breakfast is served. Add some syrup for yummy goodness!

We found these pancakes and sausage on a stick in our local Sam’s Club freezer section. Jimmy Dean also makes them in blueberry! Want a savings? If you get them in blueberry, they will be $2.00 off at Sam’s Club from 8/21 to 9/15 with Sam’s Club Instant Savings.

Another after school option (because we always delay family dinner until my husband gets home) are the State Fair Corn Dogs (34 ct.) This holds the kids over until 6 pm where we all sit down together.

Right now, join Sam’s Club to get a $20 gift card when you sign up for a $45 Sam’s Club annual membership. Benefits of Sam’s club include Club Pickup, Scan & Go and Instant Savings. With Scan and Go, pay from your phone and skip the checkout line for a faster shopping experience. Score! With Instant Savings, get extra offers on tons of already low prices. Yes! Additionally, look for more information in your Valpak envelopes for details on special offers available for Sam’s Club members.

Want something else convenient? You can order these items online now for Club Pickup later. This is awesome for me because it keeps me from unbuckling three car seats to pick up our groceries – Thank you Sam’s Club!

Which product is going in your cart with your next Sam’s Club purchase. The Pancakes and Sausage, Corn Dogs or both! Let us know what you think.

Pampers Easy Ups at Sam’s Club

June 27, 2019 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Baby, Coupons Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Pampers at Sam’s Club. The opinions and text are all mine.

Three of my five kids are potty trained. Well, almost three. We have been working on one…

Potty training is not like jumping on a bike. Every time that I prepare for a new child entering the field of “child meet potty” I have to prep myself. Yes, you guys, this is just as hard for mom! Additionally, each child is unique. Some are smart (disclosure, all my kids are smart) and some are not as over achieving (I will not mention names.) Also, with all three kids, I have done it at a different age, and that makes all the difference!

With my oldest, I potty trained right before she reached the age of two. She did fine. She is/was a type A personality, but there was some verbal communication that would have been nice for her to have. With my second child, I waited until almost 3 and a half. This was not because she wasn’t ready, it was because I wasn’t ready. Having waited, I can say that she got it the quickest of all my children! With the third, he is 2 and a half. Our nanny was ready so inevitably, he had to be ready too. And he has done great, but mastering the skill of #2 has led to some days of constipation for fear of using the potty.

A few tricks I can share are go all in. The day you decide to do it, take off the diaper and don’t turn back. We normally hang around the home naked for a few days. A lot of juice and we set a timer every 20 minutes. If he/she doesn’t go at 20 minutes, then the new timer is 5 minutes until potty is done and we reset to 20 minutes. Going number two, is a bit more challenging. Begin to look for clues in bowel movement behavior. My boy would hide and begin to hold his bottom with his hand. We did a lot of reading on the potty. Often children are going from standing up to sitting down, so knowing how to use the muscles in a new position takes thought.

Rewards. Rewards vary by family and child. Initially, our reward was an M&M for successful potty trips. Because I am a sucker for this blue eyed, blonde haired boy, he got a truck for a successful number 2 on the toilet. He is a smart boy and really struggled with victory over number two (sometimes your kids who over think, over think on the potty too!) This construction truck was his reward! Other reward systems I have done, have been sticker charts. One potty we owned, sang a song every time my child used the potty (that became quickly old, though!)

One of the hardest areas to master with potty training is night. One suggestion I have, is limit drinks before bed. Have the last drinks about 1 to 2 hours before you put your child down. Have your child empty his/her bladder before they go down for the night. With two of my three children, I would remove them from bed at my bed time (normally around 10 or 11) and carry them to the potty. I would not wake them but would whisper in their ear, go potty. I did this for years!

If you’re potty training, never run out of Pampers Easy Ups Training Underwear when you stock up on this great deal at samsclub.com. Through July 14th, Sam’s Club members can save $12 on two boxes of Pampers Easy Ups at samsclub.com. Plus, Sam’s Club offer’s FREE shipping right to your door!
