How did you do this week?

My Rite Aid Plan 5-30 through 6-5

Here is my game plan for this Sunday! :)

3 Packs of Huggies Jumbo Diapers (I want to get the jean ones..haha) $8.99 each
-3 $3.00 coupons www.coupons.com, or become a fan on facebook
-3 $1.00 video value coupons (www.riteaid.com) I also heard there may be a $2 video value coming for June. If this is the case, watch the new video before you shop!!)
-$2.00 SCR on one pack

Ziploc bags- BOGO in store
-BOGO coupon from my stockpile
=2 free :)

Tresemme shampoo,stylers, or conditioners- 2 for $7
-BOGO coupon http://bargainbriana.com/buy-one-get-one-free-tresemme-printable-coupon/
-2 $2.00 video value coupons (need to be viewed in May)
=paid 50 cents

Gilette shaving cream- 2 for $4
-2 $1 coupons (mine expire on Sunday so you may want to shop on Sunday!)
=2 for $2

Style Science Sunglasses- $8.99
-$10.00 video value coupon (needed to be viewed in May)
=$1.01 profit

Gain detergent- $4.99
-$1.00 coupon
=$3.99

Diet Pepsi- $1.25 each
I am buying three to make my deal reach $11.99

-$5.00 off of $20 dollars and $5 off of $25 because my total will be well about $50 to start!



I worked out my deal so that my total is right around $11.99 because I want to use the Huggies Up+ Rewards that I told you about a few posts ago. Since I purchased 3 Huggies products again in this transaction, I will get another $11.99 reward printed again! Therefore, my entire trip will not cost me a thing. In fact, I will be making $2.00 on this transaction because of the Huggies Single Check Rebate. Even if you don't need Huggies, I would suggest purchasing 3 packs to get the $11.99 reward. Then repeat this deal throughout the week to continue to earn your reward and purchase other items you may need. I plan to return a few times, buy the three packs of diapers, use my coupons, gather other items I need in conjunction with the Huggies, and earn another voucher.

Let me know how you do!!!

Brad's Freebies!

Today at work I received a message on my phone from my dear husband Brad. He was more than excited to tell me about his freebies. He said, and I quote, "You think YOU get freebies...well..wait until you see what I got today!" After hearing what he got, he said, "you should post a picture of it on your blog." So, above is a picture of Brad's freebies that came in the mail today. He got 2 power strips, 4 energy saver lightbulbs, 2 LED nightlights, and 4 attachments for our faucets to control water flow.

He tells me that he took a survey on Met Ed's website and for completing the survey he got these items. We are not sure if this is still available but I would think it's worth a try!

WAY TO GO, BRAD!!!!

My Rite Aid Trip 5/9/10

Brad came along to Rite Aid today which always makes for an interesting trip. He caught me "purchasing" cut off items...eeek! Even though a soda wasn't in my shopping scenario, he insisted that he needed a Diet Pepsi. Therefore, the picture above should show a Diet Pepsi but he had already finished it. :)

Here is what I purchased...

2 TRESemme shampoo- $3.29 each

I will submit for the U by Kotex rebate for $3.00

Final total= $0.85 profit!!! :) Would have been more if Brad didn't need a soda...hahaha

We really needed Neosporin so I sort of scrambled to get coupons for this item. I decided not to get the Excedrin because of this. I could not pass up the Post cereal deal...two boxes for less than 50 cents is awesome!

In addition to my previous posts for 5/9-5/15 at Rite Aid

I am also planning to purchase two boxes of Post Cereal because they are BOGO this week. You can print 2 $2.00 off coupons from this website making your total for two somewhere around 50 cents. Not too bad!

www.postnaturals.com

Sign up for their newsletter using two different email accounts so that you will be able to print two coupons.

I found a U by Kotex printable coupon...

I knew if I looked hard enough I would be able to find another U by Kotex coupon. If you are planning to do my shopping scenario (see last post), print two coupons from this site bringing your profit to over $3.00! www.ubykotex.com/get-coupons/overview

I hit the freebie jackpot!

As many of you know, I not only really love coupons but I love free samples just the same. I recently signed up for a sample pack through the US Postal Service and thought it was too good to be true. The sample pack came today and I was in my glory. Take a look at the picture below showing what was inside my sample pack (Secret Clinical deodorant, two Aveeno lotions, Aveeno shampoo and conditioner. Bengay heat patch, Shower to Shower powder, two instant coffees, Dove chocolate bar, Grill mates steak marinade, 2 Splenda samples, and a few coupons for these products). I researched this some more and found that they are not currently sending samples but they are planning to do another round very soon. The website is http://www.mysampleshowcase.com/!
