Monday 2/27/12

The weather cleared for just a bit today, so I went out to get puppy food and did a quick run through at Wags and CVS while I was out. Remember me telling you about writing kudo emails to some of my favorite products? One of those was my dog/puppy food to Organix. They sent me some really good coupons, so today I used a $3 off mfg coupon and a $2 off Petsupermarket coupon at Petsmart. I saved a total of $5 off my puppy food.

Next, Wags....I did 4 deals at Wags. The Natrol Melatonin was $4 and you got back a $4 RR. Then I bought the Finish Dishwasher soap for $3.99, had a mfg coupon for .75 off 1, and got a $1.50 RR. My 2nd deal was the Belvita breakfast bar was $2.99, I had a coup for $1 off 1 and got back $1.99 in RR. My 3rd deal was the Playtex tampons for $7.49, had a $1 off 1 coupon and got back $2 in RR, and bought the Schick Hydro razor for $9.99, had a $2 off coupon and got back $4 in RR. I used my RR from the previous deals in the amount of $6. My 4th deal was Head & Shoulders shampoo was $5.99 and 50% off the conditioner and I had a mfg coupon for $1 off 2 and used the rest of my RR on this deal. Total value today at Wags was $49.88 and my oop was $21.62, not too bad. Saved a total of $28.26.

Next CVS....I bought another Schick Hydro (the men in our family really love this razor) for 8.49, had a $2 off coup and got back $4 in RR. For buying $20 worth of Nexxus products I got back a $7 RR, I bought 2 of my comb though hairsprays. They were out of the free Themacares. 2nd deal, I was out of Breatherite which are normally around $12.99, they were on sale for $9.99, I had coupons for $2 off each one, bought 3 and needed more mucinex for my cold, which was on sale for $11.99, no coupon but I needed it. And bought 1 of the Gevelia coffees were on sale for $6.99, had a $2 off 1 coupon. I used my $11 RR from the first deal on this one. I ended up at $99.36 in product $63.02. Not great, but if you'll notice, all the items I needed were high dollar items that I could have spent almost $100 on! So I didn't feel $63 was too bad. All in all I had $149.24 in product for $84.64 including both places.

Don't forget to count up your coupons including your RR and make sure you have an item for each one. I found in the Easter Aisle Easter pens for .50 each at Walgreens and I used gum, which I needed at CVS.

Have a good week, let me know if you find some really good deals. By the way, the Natrol Melatonin works really well for helping you sleep. When I don't take it, I usually regret it. Try it....it's for all intents and purposes FREE at Wags this week!

God Bless.....Rhonda Goff
