I used my CVS card today and bought a couple things, including this great deal on Cetaphil.   I've always been a huge fan of Cetaphil and this last year I signed up for their email updates.  Click HERE to sign up.   They informed me of a survey and afterward  I could print out a $5 coupon for any 16 oz products coupon, I pressed the back button and got a second one.  If you are a member of the Cetaphil club make sure you fill out that survey and get some great deals on Cetaphil. Click HERE and see if you can fill out the survey.  No guarantee that it will work if you aren't a member. CVS has Cetaphil on sale for Buy 1 Get 1 50%. 1- Cetaphil…

The Cost of Diapers 2010 – March Update

Baby, Coupons, CVS, Rite Aid, Uncategorized, Walmart
Wow!  I haven't bought many diapers this month.    I'm definitely keeping my eye out for more deals. After adding in my diaper purchases for February and March here is what I’ve spent so far on diapers this year.  I will be getting additional rebates for the Rite Aid Pampers and will subtract that when I get it. I got my rebate check from Caregivers Market Place- $12.50!   Not bad for saving my receipts for Huggies diapers and a few other products then at the end of the year I filled out the rebate form.   I will add that $12.50 back into the cost of diapers for this year, since I didn’t include that in my calculations last year.

CVS Shopping Trip 2/27/2010

Coupons, CVS, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
On Saturday I stopped at CVS to get some Benadryl for my daughter.  She had a very strange case of hives on Friday and the doctor said that she was ok but must have been exposed to something that she was allergic to.  We just can't figure out what it could be.   The hives didn't last long.  She wasn't bothered by them either. While I was at my favorite CVS, which I might add is very small, I decided to look at some of the other deals.  In my email I got a $5/$30  coupon and thought this would be a perfect time to use it. Tide 100 oz was on sale for $10.99 - Get $2 ECBs Tide Stain Release $4.49 Used the Buy a Tide get a Tide…

The Cost of Diapers 2010 – January Update

Baby, Big Lots, CVS, Uncategorized, Walmart
One of the reasons I started to get into couponing was because of the cost of diapers and wipes.  I would go to Walmart, Sam's Club, Target, Babies R Us and compare the prices and figure which store would give me the best deal and then I discovered the 'coupon'.  Coupons as you may or may not already know hold the key to finding some great deals.  In the last year thanks to the CVS and Rite Aid I've lowered my cost to diapers to about $300 a year. This is an estimate so this year I plan on costing out how much I spend on diapers and soon training pants. My little girl isn't a little girl anymore.  She wears size 6 and is a "big" girl!  Size 6…

Cost = $22.24 Spent $27.98 ECBS,  OOP = $4.26, Earned $10 ECBs I have a couple trips to the store that I haven't had a chance to post just because of the   holidays.  Time sure does fly by!   I had over $20 worth of ECBs that I needed to spend that were to expire so I went to CVS and this is what I got.  I was hoping to make the deal a money maker or close to free as possible but they were out of the Complete Contact Solution $9.99 Get $9.99 ECB, so I came up with this scenario instead.   All of the items I can always use!  I realized before I  checked out that I didn't need the Kleenex to get my total to $28 but I…
