My Actual Target Trip

So..I got all but three (mascara, honey mustard, and corn) things from my list last night, but I added a few more things....of course, this is Target we are talking about :)

What I actually got:

1. Scrubbing Bubbles Power Sprayer Starter Kit is on sale for $8.69, which is $0.30 less than I thought.

I used one $5 off coupon that I printed and I used the coupon that earned me a $5 gift card that I got out of the 5/23 Smart Source Insert

I also printed the coupon for a free refill when you buy a Scrubbing Bubbles Starter Kit

So, I got the sprayer and a refill for an overage of $1.31

2. Tide 1 Load Travel Box for $0.97

I used the $1/1 Tide from the 5/2 Proctor and Gamble Insert to make it an overage of $0.03

3. Bounty Single Roll for $0.99

I used the $1/1 Bouty from the 5/16 Red Plum, but because it was a target coupon, they gave it to me for free and I didn't get the $0.01 overage.

4. Lysol Wipes were slightly more than my plan sale price. Instead of $1.89 each, they were $2.19, but I got them anyway.

I bought 2 and I had 2 coupons for a $1/1 each that I printed. So, I got them for a total of $2.38 or $1.19 each

5. GE Reveal Bulb on sale for $2.14

I printed the $1.50 coupon from Targets website coupons

I got another coupon from the 4/18 Smart Source insert for $1/1

I got them for an overage of $0.36

6. Reach Dental Floss in on sale for $0.97

I printed the $1/1 coupon giving me an overage of $0.03

7. Pedigree Dentastix are on sale for $3.54

I used the $1/1 Target coupon that I printed

I used the $2/1 coupon that I got from the 4/25 Red Plum Insert

I used the printed coupon and got it for an overage of $0.01

9. I got the Listerine Whitening on sale for $1.98.

I used the coupon I printed online for $2/1 giving me another overage of $0.02

10. I got one box of strawberries on sale for $1.49

11. I actually got two pounds of ground beef for $4.89 because it was a little cheaper per pound than the 1 pound.

12. I got the Mac and Cheese delux valued at $3.99 for FREE and a Cheese Deli Delux valued at $3.50 for FREE as well

13. Kraft Dressing was actually on sale for $1.50, not $2.29 each!

I had the coupon from some random mailer for $1/1 (Target coupon)

I had 2 $0.55/1 coupons from the 5/2 Smart Source Insert

And I had the B2G1 Free from Target's website

I got three Dressings for $.90 or $0.30each!!!

Some additional items I purchased: (these were not great sale items, but they are things I needed/wanted)***

14. I got two Huggies refill wipes 76ct for $2.39 each or $4.78 total

I had a printed coupon for $2/2, so I got them both for $2.78 or $1.39 each

15. I got six bananas for $1.15

16. I got a six pack of Jello for $2.79

17. Cool Whip was on sale for $1.19 each.

I had a coupon for B3G1 free so, I got four tubs for 3.57 or $0.89 each

18. I bought two Campbell's Soups for $1.89 each or $3.78 total

I had a $1/2 coupon making them $2.78 or $1.39 each

19. I used the $5/$20 (before coupons)purchase

My grand total for everything you see above was: $16.51

***If I had stuck with my original plan, my total would have only been $3.44, but this is a good lesson to show us how much stuff adds up when you do not plan for it! Those last few items I threw into my cart turned into $13.07 of my total!!

CVS and Walgreens Deals

So, I got a few good things today at Walgreen and a couple of things on Sunday from CVS, but it wasn't a spectacular week. Walgreens was out of a lot of my "money makers" but here is what I got:



At CVS, I got two Gillette Body Wash (no picture), 12 oz. They were on sale for $4 each with $4 worth of Extra Care Bucks for each one. I also used a coupon for $4 off the purchase of two Gillette Body wash from the Proctor and Gamble insert from 5/2. So, it was $8-$8 in ECB-$4 coupon. My grand total was: FREE with a $4 profit!!

At Walgreens, I bought 2 sets of Ouchless barrettes for $2.54 each. They each had a $3 register reward, so I got them for FREE with a $0.92 overage.

I also bought 6 Oscar Meyer Deli meats that were $2.12 each, making it a total of 12.72. I had two $1/2 coupons and two $1/1 coupons, so that brought my total down to $8.72/6 packs or $1.46 each.

I bought two Kraft Cheese slice packs for $2.12 as well.

I bought 2 Oscar Meyer Weiners that were B1G1 free. So, I paid $2.54 for 2, then I also had a $1/2 coupon, bringing my total to $1.54 for both or $0.77 each.

My total for the food was: $12.38. It was all Kraft Brand foods, and when you spend $30 BEFORE coupons, you can send in for a $10 rebate. Even though this wasn't quite $30 yet, I am close.

With the rebate, this food would only cost me $2.38. That is $2.38 for 10 items!!!

I bought two 27ct packs of Huggies diapers at $15.30/2. They also had a $3 RR when you purchased two. I also had two $3 coupons, bringing my total to $6.30 for two or $3.15 for a pack OR $0.12 a diaper, which is important to me because the best "regular price" deal I have ever found is $0.24 each! NICE...very happy about this.

I bought some contact lens solution that was on sale for $6.79 with an $8 RR. I also had a coupon for $2 off from the Red Plumb insert from 5/16. My total for this product was FREE with a $3.21 OVERAGE!

The last thing that I bought was some Huggies swimmers that were on sale for $5.94. Walgreens had a coupon for $2 off and I had a printable coupon for another $1.50 off making them $2.44. They are normally $8.99 a pack!

So....my grand total for Walgreens was: $6.99!!

CVS and Walgreens

So..I have been a bit out of it the last two weeks because of illness and family in town. However, I wanted to share my deals from the week. I did not get any pictures so this is just the run down.

CVS:

I got 2 Dunkin Hines brownie mixes. They were on sale 12/$10 so I paid a total of $1.67

I got a 9.5 oz Dawn dish soap which was on sale for $0.84. I had a manuf coupon for $0.50, so I only paid $0.34

I got a 12oz bottle of Herbal Essense shampoo and a 13.5 oz bottle of Aussie Shampoo. They were on sale for $2.99 with a $2 RR (limit 2). I also had a coupon for $1 off the Herbal Essense and $2 off the Aussie, making my total for both FREE with a $1.02 overage.

I also got a razor and blade set for $6.99 that had a RR of $6.99, so it was FREE.

My total at CVS was: $0.99

Walgreens:

I got two Old Spice 18 oz body washes. They were originally $4.49. I had a B1G1 free coupon and a RR for $4.50 when you buy one, so I got them both for FREE with a $0.68 overage.

I also got two Gilette 12oz body washes. They were the exact same deal, so I got them both for FREE with a $0.68 overage.

I got two Right Guard Deodorants. They were $4.49, but they were B1G1 free. I also had a $3/2 coupon. So, I got them for $0.82 or $0.41 each!

I decided I would like to try the new Off brand clip on mosquito repellant. They are normally $10 each. They were on sale for $8.99. I had a B1G1 free coupon, a $2/1 manuf. coupon, and a $2/1 WG coupon (which deducted $4 total since I "bought" two even though I got the one for free). So I got both clip ons (a $20 value) for $1.64 or $0.82 each.

My grand total was: $1.10!! I was pretty happy with that!!

CVS on Mother's Day

Ok...so the stores are not having GREAT sales this week, but I did snag a few things from CVS today.

The face wash was B1G1 50% off, so they were $7.18 total, or $3.59 each.

The U Kotex panty liners were on sale for $4.99, and they had a $4.99 RR. I also had a $1.00 CVS coupon, and a $1.00 manuf. coupon, so I got these for free with a $2.00 OVERAGE!

I got two Right Guard Deodorant for $2.49 each. They each had a $2 RR and I had a $3/2 manuf. coupon, so I got these BOTH for free and a $2.02 OVERAGE.

The crest toothpaste and mouthwash were on sale for $3.50 each. They each had a $3.50 RR, and I had a $0.75 coupon per item, so I got them BOTH for free with a $1.50 OVERAGE!

Walgreens Deals!

Ok, so here is the run down.

Cascade was on sale for $3.40 for a 60oz box. If you bought $10 worth, you got $2 register rewards. I bought three and had one $0.25 coupon, so the cascade was $7.95 for three or $2.65 for two, after my military discount.

Next, the Swiffer wet jet pads refills were on sale for $4.13 after military discount. and the refill fluid was on sale for $3.49. Walgreens had a deal where if you bought $10 worth, you would get a $2 register reward. So, I split them into two transactions so I could get two $2 register rewards. Also, Swiffer is giving a $10 rebate when you spend $20 on their products. So, I got five pad refills and one fluid refill for a total of $10.14 or $1.69 each. They are normally $6.80 a piece people!!! and WE LOVE SWIFFER!!

Then, we have the Kellogs 2/$5 deal. With my military discount, they were $2.12 each for an 18 oz box. Then, I had a $1.00 off two boxes and you got $2 register reward, so I got them for a total of $1.24 or $0.62 per box!

Next, Irish Spring Body wash 18 oz. was on sale for $2.99. You got a $2 register reward and I had a $0.50 coupon, so after my military discount, it was only $0.04!

I bought myself and Brent some Pert Plus Shampoo 12 and 13.5 oz (2 bottles). Each was on sale for $1.99. I had one $1.50 off coupon and one $1.00 off coupon, so after everything they were $0.88 total or $0.44 each.

SURE deodorant was on sale for 2/$3. I bought two and had two coupons. One for $1.50 and one for $1.00 making them $0.05 total or about $0.02 each!!

I was out of sunscreen and we were on our way to the fountains, so I bought two because they had them B1G1 50%. I got them both for $8.78 or $4.39 each. Sunscreen is so expensive!!

Finally, I got Brent two containers of Oxy Max Pads that were B1G1 Free. They were $4.24. I had a $1.00 coupon. So they were $3.24 for two or $1.62 each.

The grand total for today's shopping trip was: $32.32.

I am not completely thrilled with not getting anything for free with overages this week, but some weeks are going to be better than others. We use everything I bought A LOT and it was on some really good deals, so I could not pass them up. If you think of it this way....one swiffer refill is usually $6.70, and I bought six swiffer refills for LESS than two at normal price, I suppose Im happy :)

Target and CVS Deals!

Today, I went to CVS. I got these three things and they paid me $0.27. The depends (which are for a pregnant friend who is about to have two babies) were FREE plus a $2.00 overage. This is because they were $6.99 with a $6.99 Register Reward. The Listerine was on sale for $3.99 with a register reward of $2.00 and I have a coupon for $0.50 off making it $1.49. The Colgate was on sale for $2.99 with $2.00 RR, with a $0.75 coupon making it $0.24.

Then I went to Target and got all of this for $16. Bertollis are on sale for $5.89 each, and when you buy 3, you get a $5 gift card. I also have two $1 coupons for the Bertolli that I printed from www.coupons.com. So, I got all three for $10.67 or $3.56 each. This will make for some pretty cheap quick meals the next few weeks. The Vaseline Sheer Fusion lotion was on sale for $4.79. I had a coupon for $3.75 off and then a Target coupon for $1 off, so I got the lotion for $0.04! The Nievea body was was on sale for $3.99 and I had a coupon for $4.00 off, so I made $0.01 from it! Now, some Targets are offering a $5 gift card for the Scrubbing Bubbles power sprayers, but my did not. However, it was still pretty cheap. It was $7.99 on sale, and I had a coupon for $5 off. Then there is a coupon on the Scrubbing Bubbles website that will get you one refill bottle for free with the purchase of the first power sprayer. So, I got the sprayer and refill for $2.99. If your Target was offering the gift card with purchase, you would get the sprayer and refill and make $2.01!!!

Don't forget to check back tomorrow for my finds from Walgreens!!!
