CVS Shopping Trip 10/10/09

CVS, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Cost: $2.67 OOP $6.67 ECBs $9 Saturday was a busy day!  My daughter and I went to both Rite Aid and CVS. Here is a little information on why CVS shopping can be so worth it.  I got all of this for under $3 but you will notice that I got some products that I might not need.  Right now I have a pretty good stockpile of shampoo, conditioner, soap, nail polish and toothpaste,  but because these items were free or close to free it helped me get the diapers that I needed for really cheap!  I can take these products donate them, give them away, stockpile them or  use them for other purposes.  There are some great blogs that talk about other uses for products like my husband can…

Today, my family and I went on a day trip and stopped at a Super Walmart.  We don't have any near us.  Whenever, the opportunity arises I try to make a stop.   Thanks to so many blogs that have some great Walmart matchups.   My prices were different then the ones listed so keep that in mind.  Each Walmart does have different pricing.  Thanks to MoneySavingMom.com and My husband and I love to check out the clearance aisles.  I might have mentioned that before.  Today was no different!  We found a lot of good deals today at the Super Walmart they had over 5 aisles of clearances items. 2 -Tide packets (travel size)--$0.97 Use $1/1 coupon from the 8/30 P&G insert Free after coupon 2 - Reach toothbrushes --$2.89 Use $2/1…

Shopping Trips, Uncategorized, Walmart
Yesterday, 9/19, I treated my family to some yummy sushi!  It was so good.  I haven't had it in a couple months.  It was a very nice celebration.  The sushi resturant I went to happens to be next to Walmart, since this was a take out order, we went to Walmart while we waited. Thanks to TheThriftyMama and CouponMom for the info about the Huggies Baby Wipes. 2 Huggies pull-ups wipes $1.64 each($3/2 SS 7/19 Huggies Pull-Up wipes) = Final Price = .14 total Yes!  I found 6 of them.

Rite Aid Shopping Trip 9/20 – Profit $13.62!!!

Baby, Rite Aid, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
I did it! I was able to do the transactions that I talked about HERE! Note: I did print out a couple of the $5/$20 Adperks coupons.  It seems that the coupon can be used more than once but it is YMMV (Your Manager May Vary) if your store will allow you to use it more than once.  Which is why I went to a different store.  Some people are registering a different email address and using a different computer to get a second Adperks $5/$20 coupon.  I've heard but haven't confirmed that the coupon bar code is the same. I went to 2 different stores.  One of the stores I've had issues with coupons in the past, however, the cashier knows me now and knows I like good deals. …

Aldi Shopping Trip 9/4/09

Aldi, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
Before I started to use coupons I would go to Aldi on a regular basis.  In the NOVA area, we have 4 Aldi's now and originally we had 2.  It is a great grocery store!   Not many people know what I'm talking about when I say, "Aldi", usually I get, "What is that?" or "I know Aldi, VA!".  Then I explain the Aldi store and the history of it. Did you know that one of the brothers that started Aldi is the owner of Trader Joes?   It's true.  You can even find Trader Joe like products at Aldi.  Joe Coulombe was the founder of Trader Joes and later sold it.  More information about Aldi and its german history HERE. What is Aldi?  Click HERE for a quick tour.  You can…
