WOW! Did I do good this week at CVS. The deal is "Buy $20.00 worth of products on this page of the ad and get $5.00" in CVS bucks, or $10 in CVS bucks, different pages have different products that qualify. Well, while at CVS trying to figure out some deals, I figured out my Pampers - the good, expenseive, does not leak all over my daughter, brand - deal. They are $8.99 for the jumbo pack, size 3 has 40 diapers, which I was almost out of diapers except size 5's for later on that I got on sale a while ago - you never quite know what size to stock up on. We are in size 2's, almost 3's as Riley now weighs a little over 16 pounds! Ok, so the Dawn dish soap was on sale for .99cents and there are .50 cent coupons out on it. So, technically, you could have bought 21 bottles at .99 ea. = 20.79 minus a .50 coupon on each = you subtract $10.50, then print out and use the $4.00 off of $20 purchase coupon, so subtract $4.00 ( now $14.50) 20.79 minus 14.50 = $6.29 you pay at the register cash. Then at the bottom of your receipt what do you have? A coupon for $5.00 off of your next purchase!! Ad tax to the 6.29 = $6.73 - 5.00 on next purchase = a total of $1.73 cents you paid for 21 bottles of Dawn dish liquid!!!! wow!
So on to my deals. Each deal consisted of 2 packages of pampers at 8.99 each. so that brings total to $17.98 so I needed to get to $20 so I bought 3 dawn with the 2 pampers. I had 2 coupons for $2.00 off of pampers and 3 coupons for .50 off of each dawn. So coupons were minus $5.50. And I had the coupon "take $4.00 off of your $20 purchase", I printed as many as I needed to do each deal. So the 5.50 in coupons plus the 4.00 coupon = total of $9.50 in coupons. Add up my purchases: 8.99, 8.99, 3 x .99 = $20.95. minus coupons of 9.50 = $11.45. So I paid $11.45 plus tax = $12.14 for 2 pampers and 3 Dawns plus now I have my $5.00 off of my next order, bringing this down to 12.14 - 5.00 = net of $7.14 for this transaction!!!! Where can you get 2 pkg's pampers and 3 dawns for $7.14??? Only at CVS this week!!! The limit is 1 per card so I had to ask my husband, mom, other family to use their card so I could get these deals. I was able to do the deal 4 times total with 4 different cards since they were not going to be using their card for this deal. But what I did with their deals was I went in and with each card I bought the Crest pro health toothpaste, 2 of them they were $3.29 each. I had $1.00 off of each coupons. AND CVS was giving away 3.29 bucks for each toothpaste you bought, limit of 2 per card. So I paid at the register for these 2 toothpastes, 3.29+3.29 = 6.58 - 2.00 in coupons = 4.28 I paid at the register. Now I have $6.58 extra bucks that just printed on my receipt to do my pampers deals on each card. So I got the toothpastes free and an extra 1.00 for each. I used this money for each of my pampers deals besides my first deal because I did not think of the toothpaste, duh!! So at the register where the pampers deals were 11.45, i used my 6.58 bucks = $4.87 I paid at the register for the pampers deals after that first one. And now I have 4 cards worth of $5.00 bucks= 20.00, plus my card of bucks from the toothpaste(6.58) = $26.58 cents to spend at cvs on the next free deals. This is great!! And I am stocked up on toothpaste and pampers, oh and dawn dish liquid :) woohooo, my sister did the Tide deal and ended up making a killing on big bottles of Tide. The Tide is proctor/gamble in with the pampers deal I did and you are only allowed 1 per card so I vouched for the pampers because I needed them bad.
Sis got 4 Tide at 5.49 each = 21.96 minus .35 cent coupon on each = minus 1.40 and her 4.00 off 20.00 purchase coupon = 21.96 minus 5.40 in coupons = 16.56. BUT she did the mucinex first, she bought 2 mucinex for 10.00 each= 20.00 minus 4.00 coupon = 16.00 for two mucinex and got 10.00 extra bucks on her receipt. so her mucinex were 8.00 ea. and she used the 10.00 on her tide deal so she got her 4 bottles of tide for 16.56 MINUS the 10.00 = 6.56!!! Awesome deal sis!!
She did the Robitussin deal too, and now she can send in for the $5.00 rebate. she bought 4 robitussin at 6.00 each, had 3.00 on each coupons from web, and had one 4.00 off 20. purchase coupon so 24.00 for 4 robitussin minus 16.00 of coupons = 8.00 for 4 robitussin and she now has 10.00 cvs bucks to spend on her next order!! so that is a 2.00 profit, and then her rebate money! She only needed 3 items for her 5.00 rebate, so I suggested since she has 4 robitussin to go get 2 robitussin cough drops and do the rebate twice. it is worth spending 2 more dollars to get 5.00 more dollars back,... well, I think so anyway!!! So check the robitussin out at your CVS this week too. Rebate form was in the sunday paper inserts a few weeks back with 1.00 coupons.
And of course we were at Walgreen's picking up our free ink cartridges that were refilled ... for free.... and I saw the post its on clearance for $1.14, sis is the one who noticed they said super sticky, well, I have $2.00 coupons off of super sticky post its. So I wondered what would happen with the diff from 2.00 to 1.14? Would they give me that money off of my purchase??? So I grabbed some things I needed and the 7 post its, and the 7 coupons and what do you know, I only owed .95 cents!!!! I got the 7 post its, a traveler stainless steel coffee mug, 2 bags of caramels for halloween treat making, and a bottle of rootbeer. all for .95cents. So I thought I should go back in and check the school supplies aisle for any clearance laying around there, I found one super sticky post it index cards for 1.14, so I bought some chips that were B1G1, the good cracker cheese pretzel, combo's thats it, so I got 2 bags of those and the post its and my total was $1.21. and NOW I will clip the post it upcs and the receipts and put that toward a $5. mcdonald's gift certificate, remember, every 15. in post its = 5.00 gift card for mcd's or other restaurants, I forget the others except Chili's is on there. ohh, another thing I just remembered I have to check on asap is:
On the back of the Walgreen's coupon book in the store, it mentioned buy 4 wyeth products at Walgreens (the robitussin I bought 5 of last week) and you get $100.00 towards a spa purchase!@!!! I have no idea what that means yet until I go to the website, but it looks like mama might be getting a day at the spa for the first time in my life!! I have always sooo bad wanted to get a back massage, especially when I was pregnant, but never got one, hopefully now I can get one for free! I have to go check on that right now... gotta find that book.
Remember to always keep organized. I have envelopes with the rebate forms in them, addressed, stamped, and ready to go. I put my upc's and receipts in the envelope as I go. With post its, I write on the upc - I cut out a little larger around the barcode so I can write the amount that post it cost, to the penny. If it was .97 cents, that is what I put. Because your post its have to be at least $15.00. so you would need to buy 16 at .97 cents each to send in for your gift card. Very important. Then when i have all the receipts/items/upc's bought, I just make a photocopy of it all, file it with the date I mailed it out, and mail it out.
