After having taken a couple of weeks off from couponing, I went to CVS yesterday. Thanks to my husband I got to go alone and spend the quiet time, just me and my coupon binder, in search of great deals.
I had a $5 off of $40 purchase coupon, $10 in extra care bucks, $6 in quarterly rewards, and a $10 gift card I had previously purchased for $2, thanks to one of those daily deal websites.
Here is what I came home with:
All together I bought an 8 pack roll of Bounty paper towels, a 12 roll pack of Charmin, 6 bottles of Herbal Essence shampoo and conditioner, 2 Herbal Essence hairsprays, 2 Crest mouthwashes, 4 bottles of Wisk laundry detergent, 2 Oral B toothbrushes, a pack of hair elastics, Cover Girl pressed powder, Cover Girl lip gloss, 3 Dawn dish washing detergents, and 14 Snickers Easter eggs (of which I have already eaten 3!).
My grand total after sales prices but before coupons and rewards was $87.60.
I paid $18.40 out of pocket and I received $18 in ECBs for my next shopping trip! Yay!
I love saving my family money and because of our new shopping habits we have already saved $630 this year alone. This is just my total for CVS, which is where I do most of my household needs shopping. I am guessing it is more like $1000 if you add in savings from the 2 grocery stores I shop at, Walgreens, and Rite Aid.
Not bad at all.
Linda,
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you for doing this ... the couponing yes, but the 365 day project, with photos too ... very impressive! I am really impressed & inspired. I love you!

Thank you T! It has been a lot of fun! I love writing in general but I lack the motivation to be consistent unless I have some kind of structure. This 365 day project reminds me to write something every few days at the least!
ReplyDeleteLove you too!
