8/09 Target Spending

Wednesday, August 11, 2010

So Monday, I dragged the whole family through Target for 1 1/2 hours. DH was not so happy with me but we had picked him up from work and were going out to eat so I wanted to fit it in between. The deals were worth him frowning at me. :)

I think the best deal (besides the free Post It notes) was on the tape. 3 were $1.50 and with the $1 off/3, I paid $0.50 for 3 tapes! Like paying $0.17 each!


It was not a Super Target so I plan to go back and used my Gift Cards and pick up some yogurt, free Bic pens, more free Post It notes. I also want to do the cheese/free bread deal from the flyer. Hopefully everything won't be gone by the time I get there.

8/09 CVS MoneyMaker!

Tuesday, August 10, 2010

Well! August started off with a fizzle! 10 days of sickness really cut into my couponing days. It just seems wrong to miss out on a week of good deals! Oh well, I'm back on my game now. Yesterday I went to CVS to do some deals there. It was a definite moneymaker!

*NOTE: IF anyone needs the Dulcolax rebate form, I have an extra. Just holler.* 

(not shown: 2 Lipton tea jugs, 3 candy bars already devoured)

I have two CVS cards so I did these on separate ones to do the deals twice (bought 1 Dulcolax/Schick shaver on one, bought everything else on the other) but I'm putting them together in one list to save time.

Started with $14.98 in ECBs to use, plus a $5 off $30 purchase that printed at the CVS card kiosk

(2) Dulcolax (Orig. $12.99, sale $9.99)
used $4/1 coupon 5/16 SS
used $3/1 coupon 8/8 SS or Dulcolax website here
bottles had rebate tags on them that expired in February, but the company assures me they are honoring them til the fall, so get those in for $5 back!
(2) Hydro Schick (Orig. $9.99, sale $8.97)
used (2) $5/1 coupons 8/8 SS
you can send in for the Schick rebate of one Razor's price: form here
(2) Lipton Tea Jugs (Orig. $3.49, sale $2/$5)
(2) Airwick IMotion Kits (Orig. $9.99, sale $4.99)
used (2) $4/1 coupons 8/8 SS or Airwick website here
(3) Candy Bars (Orig: $0.89, sale B2G1 free)
(4) Almay makeup products (Orig. $7.99, clearance $2)
tried to have them do the B1G1 1/2 off deal on Almay but they wouldn't do it for clearance items, even though the ad didn't say that.
used (4) $1/1 coupons 7/25 SS
(2) Bic Disposable Razor sets (Orig. $3.99, sale B1G1 1/2 off)
used B1G1 free coupon 8/1 SS (it took off $3.99)
Xtra Detergent (Orig. $2.99, sale $1.99)
used $1/1 coupon 6/6 SS
Visine Eye Drops (Orig. $6.99, sale $3.99)
used $3/1 coupon here

Spent OOP: $37.65 - $5 off $30 - $14.98 ECB = $17.67
Original Cost of Items: $125.51
Savings: $107.84
86% Savings!
+ Received $27.98 ECBs + $5 Dulcolax rebate coming
Definite $15.31 moneymaker!! Or even if you didn't have the $14.98 ECBs I had, you make $0.33 at least.
