coupon success!

[Guest]

Hi Everyone!

I read your posts everyday in daily digest and haven’t posted often.

But I have learned alot from all of you and been quite inspired.

Recently I have started really doing the coupon thing, especially the

drugstores. The grocery stores here (near Boston MA) don’t send out

flyers so it is hard to shop coupon sales for food. I took your

advice and asked my MIL (she gets 2 different Sunday papers) for her

left over coupons. Often she uses different things than I do, so I

benefit with the extra coupons!!! That was great advice.

I had a great success I would like to share- since my DH doesn’t share

my excitement over big savings.

I cut my coupons, looked over the flyers for CVS and Walgreen’s, made

a list, checked it twice (haha) and off I went to the stores.

CVS:

1 Shaving cream 3.49 on sale 2.50 less $1 coupon= 1.50

2 Dawn dish detergent 1.89, on sale .99 less $1 off 2=.98

2 Colgate toothpaste 2.99, on sale 1.97 less $1 both= 1.94

received $3 coupon off next $10 CVS purchase!

$1.50 extra care card coupon

TOTAL SPENT $2.92 FOR $13.25 MERCHANDISE!!!

WALGREENS

1 Act flouride rinse 4.49 on sale 3.50 less $1 coupn= 2.50

2 Crest toothpaste 2.39 on sale 1.39 less $2 coupn=.78

(both toothpastes had free sample toothpastes attached- BONUS!)

1 Mr Clean cleaner 2.99 on sale 1.99 less $1 coupon=.99

1 Super large Pantene shampoo 7.99 on sale 6.00 less $3 cou=$3

1 reg size Pantene conditioner 4.99 less BOGO free=0

Received $6 Walgreens coupon for next Walgreen’s purchase!!!

TOTAL SPENT 7.27 FOR $25.24 MERCHANDISE!!!

WOW!!! overall I spent $10.19 for $38.49 of stuff!!

See what you all inspired me to do!!!!!

Thanks! Now I can’t wait for next weeks flyers…
