K-Mart and Rite Aid Shopping 7/5/10


Brad and I did some deal hunting today and visited K-Mart, Rite Aid, and CVS. We were exhausted afterwards and he was a little annoyed, but we got some awesome deals!
The first picture is what I got at K-Mart. They do double up to 5 coupons per day but Brad was a little impatient so we settled for 3 freebies. I had to pay just tax for all three items. The Gillette coupon was in this Sunday's paper for $2.00 off. The reach coupon and L.A. Looks coupons were in my stockpile. I hope you have them too!
The second picture is what I got at Rite Aid. Missing from this photo is Clairol Hair Dye, a case of water, and a 6-Pack of Boost nutritional drink. I purposely "purchased" items that would print an Up Reward. Brad also spotted a "Try Me Free" tag on the Organix Coconut Milk shampoo. We mailed in that rebate and should be reimbursed for the total of our purchase. Many of the bottles had tags on them so keep a look out. I basically broke even on the purchases from today and successfully "rolled" my Up Rewards (paid with Up rewards and got the same amount back).

  1. Amy,
    Here's what I did on my first K-mart trip:
    2 Oral-B toothbrushes
    3.50 each
    - (2) 2.00/1 coupons (which were "doubled")
    = Free

    Pantene Hairspray
    3.50
    - 2.00/1 coupon ("doubled")
    = Free

    2 Purell Hand Sanitizers
    1.49 each
    - (2) 1.00/1 coupons ("doubled")
    = Free

    I just had to pay 0.24 in sales tax.
    Gotta love it!

  3. K-mart, Round 3...
    2 Reach Dental Floss (flosses??)
    1.79 each
    - (2) 1.00/1 coupons ("doubled")
    = Free

    Another Oral-B toothbrush free

    2 Always Pantiliners Pocket Packs
    1.49 each
    - (2) 1.00/1 coupons ("doubled")
    = Free

    Total=$0.00

    I'll return one more time, and get 5 more free packs of pantiliners. (It pays to have friends who don't (and won't) use coupons - they give me all their Sunday inserts. In return I give them free products as a thank you.)

    Amy, I can't thank you enough for turning me on to the world of couponing. I have always clipped coupons and saved a few cents here and there, but you have opened up a whole new world.
