An Excuse?!?!

noreply@blogger.com (Kim) — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 00:55:00 +0000

I am so sorry about the lack of posts as of late! I guess this might kinda explain why (maybe?)

I have been pretty tired and have been doing sales, just lack the motivation to to alot of them, and post about them. Sorry! Hopefully now that we are over 20 weeks, I will get some energy back and will post more :)

Target

noreply@blogger.com (Kim) — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 19:13:00 +0000

I got this GREAT deal at Target yesterday- Play Doh has a game going on that if you don't win one of their main prizes- they give you a coupon for something else- yesterday in the AM the coupon was for $5.00 off the Magic Swirl Ice Cream shoppe- it is on sale at Target for $8.00- PLUS you get a bonus 4 pack for FREE- Using the coupon makes it $3.00- Now I know that many people were saying that too many people printed too many coupons- I printed 3 and stopped - I have a couple kids birthdays coming up including my own little babe, so I don't feel like printing the 3 was excessive- Most bricks coupons let you print 2 anyway, and this was only one more- but I don't know why I am justifying it, I shouldn't have too. Anyway, they had plenty in stock, and I also had a $1/1 Nexcare Target coupon and a $1/1 Manufactures coupon- and the Shrek ones were $1.89- so a .11 overage- Total Spent OOP $10.57- Total Saved $43.94. AWESOME!

The little babe LOVES Play Doh, and I love the smell!

I {heart} Rite Aid- they are so nice, and coupon friendly and great to work with-

the only thing that would make my shopping experience there better would be if they would get rid of the HUGE display of die cast cars in the aisle as to not tempt my child, which then leads to mommy not getting the cars, and a temper tantrum will ensue, but I digress... Anyway, here is my trip~

I got 4 Gillette Body wash- $2.99 each- Used 2 Buy One Get One Free coupons from 6/6 P&G, and a $4/2 (for the ones that weren't free) from the 5/2 P&G

Winco

noreply@blogger.com (Kim) — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 17:27:00 +0000

So, we now have a new Winco about 10 miles from my house, and since I went to Rite Aid, I figured I would stop by Winco too- They had some coupons in the paper to get Free Shasta Pop, Free Wonder Hot Dog Buns, Free Tortilla Chips and 4 lbs of Strawberries for $2.98-

So here is what I got~

Ok, so I should have laid them out on my table differently, and I can't find my recipt- But I got

I think that is it- and I spent $30.18- but I feel like I got a bit for what I spent.

noreply@blogger.com (Kim) — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 17:18:00 +0000

WalGreens

noreply@blogger.com (Kim) — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 17:12:00 +0000

Here is my transaction from Wal-Greens yesterday-

I got- 3 Gillette Deodorants, 3 Gillette Body Washes, 2 Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizers, and 1 Walgreens Candy

2 of the deodorants were $4.49 and one was the Odor Shield Deodorant which was $4.99, I used 3 Buy one deodorant, get 1 body wash free (RP 5/16), and combined with the $4/2 5/2 P&G and the $2/1 Odor Shield Deodorant coupon from the 5/16 RP

There is a RR at Walgreens that when you spend $25.00 (before coupons) on Gillette, or Old Spice, you get a $10.00 RR- so it breaks down like this

2 Deodorant @ $4.49-

1 Deodorant at $4.99-

3 Body Washes at $4.49-

= $27.44- Minus $4.49 x 3 (for the Buy One Get One Free)

Minus $4 & $2 (for the deodorant that weren't free)

= $7.97 BUT you get a $10.00 RR

For the Jergens- they were $4.59 each,

I used 2 $2/1 SS 5/16- Plus when you buy 2- you get a $5.00 RR

I got the Walgreens Candy for $.39 because I needed a filler item because I used a $10.00 RR and a $3.00- My subtotal was $.54, Tax was $2.48- Total OOP was $3.02, but I got $15.00 In RR-

Total Saved $45.87

I would have gotten the Bayer Aspirin, but they were out...
