I do try to go shopping on Sundays, but because I’m just getting back from a conference, it wasn’t going to happen! Actually, I should say that my husband gently forbade me to drive until I could complete a sentence properly and keep my eyes completely open and – yeah – wasn’t going to happen. So, I woke up this morning slightly refreshed and shopped my little heart out after taking the kids to camp! Here’s what I did:
4 Purell 8 oz $2.99 (Used $1 from Walgreens Aug coupon booklet and 4 $1 from 7/28 RP)
4 Wet ‘N Wild Nail Polish $.99 each (Used 4 $1 from 7/28 RP – reduced to $3.96)
2 Stride iD Gum $.99 each (Used $1/2 from 6/16 SS (expired 7/28 – my husband bought it when he went yesterday, but I added it to the photo anyway!)
6 Twizzlers Packages 2/$3 (Used 2 $1/3 from 7/28 SS)
Also used $3 RR from two weeks ago
Paid $7.95, Got nothing back
Final Price: $10.95
Starbucks Iced Coffee $1.50 (Used $1 Starbucks coupon)
Stayfree Overnights $2.99 (Used $1 Stayfree from 7/28 RP)
2 Nature’s Bounty Potassium Glucosamine $5.99 (Used 2 $2 from 7/28 RP AND $2 Nature’s Bounty from Red Coupon Machine)
Herbal Essences Shampoo And Herbal Essences Conditioner 2/$5 (Used B1G1 from 7/28 P&G)
Also used $5 ECB from two weeks ago (reduced to $4.99)
Paid $0 (my total was $4.99, so the $5 covered it all), Got $1 ECB from Stayfree, $1.50 from Starbucks, $1 from Herbal Essences wyb 2
Final Price: $1.50
Total spent on everything: $12.45
A few things to look for! My Walgreens was out of Reach Toothbrushes and my CVS was out of $6.99 Venus Razors (because I didn’t go yesterday. Doh!), so be sure to look for those when you shop! Also, I discovered that the limit on Herbal Essences is two, so I’ll be going back later this week to pick up some more. It’s hard to beat $.75 Herbal Essences!
