Thrifty Momma Ramblings $3 CVS Shopping Trip 5/6!

I went to CVS today on 5/06 and got the following items for $3.21 with tax! I received $5 back in ECB’s!

I bought the Pantene; Colgate 2/$5; Listerine Mouthwash; and Ajax Dish Liquid. Total before coupons was $21.73.

I used the following coupons:
(2) Ajax 20 cent coupons
(2) Mouthwash $1/1 printable coupons
(1) BOGO Pantene Coupon
(2) Colgate 50 Cent off coupon
(1) CVS off any Toothpaste Coupon

I had a $3/15 CVS Purchase Share Your Pharmacy Story Coupon I printed off. I also used $8.49 ECB’s.

Final Price= $3.21!!!! Plus the $5 in ECB’s. Ok so I rolled all my ECB’s into this purchse and I lost $3.49 but I received an extra $10 ECB by purchasing 2 $25 Itunes gift cards for my husband’s birthday. I paid $40 for 2 gift cards! No tax on this purchase. You do have to spend the full $50 as you cannot use ECB’s on gift card purchases. I needed a birthday present for him, and he LOVES Itunes gift cards. It’s his favorite gift to receive. I love when CVS offers this deal. I now have $15 in ECB’s to use for next week!

I Spent $13.18 at CVS for $75.80 in Sale Items!

 

I had to get a rain check from the Nature Relief as the store only got a couple in and were out after the first day. They did honor my $8.99 ECB it should have printed. On Saturday I bought the Blink Tears and used my $10 off ECB from the Gillette promotion. I had the $1.oo off coupon. I bought 3 of the M&M candies so I could have a little room as they will not let you have overage. I always buy a cheap filler item. They were marked B2G1F.

My subtotal was $0.37 cents and I paid $0.87 cents in taxes for a grand total of $1.24! I got $8.99 ECB back! (total savings 15.19!)

Then on Sunday April 29th I found the Nature Relief so I grabbed it as it was the second to last on the shelf. I did two transactions.

Transaction #1

I used my rain check and bought 4 Mentos gum (99 cents each) and a filler. I had (2) coupons for $1/2 and the $1 on Nature Relief. Subtotal was $0.42 and I paid $0.82 cents in taxes for a grand total of $1.24! I got back $8.49 ECB!

Transaction #2

This is too long to list but I got the Pantene 2/$6.97; Colgate Spinbrush, Cover Girl, Colgate Toothpaste, and Dawn Dish Liquid. I had Pantene BOGO; and a good bit of coupons plus I rolled the $8.49 ECB. I could have broken it down but I had a big ECB to use so I didn’t mind paying $9.40 after taxes! I saved $30.29 plus I had $8.50 in ECB’s but several smaller ones.

Then on Monday I had to pick up my son’s prescriptions so I bought one more of the Colgate toothpaste plus 2 more Mentos gum. I had the 50 cents Colgate coupon and another $1/2 Mentos  Pure gum. I rolled the $2.50 ECB.  My subtotal was $0.98 cents and I paid $0.32 cents in taxes for a grand total of $1.30! I received a $2.50 ECB. (total savings- $5.59)

I spent a GRAND TOTAL- $13.18!!!  I bought $75.80 in sale items and I still have $8.50 in ECB’s to use!

My total savings was $62.62 which is 82% savings!!!!

My store is out of the Nivea hand cream so I’m hoping to snag 2 of those. I can use many of the purchases from Transaction #2 for the P&G Rebate Form!

How did you do this past week?

My Shopping Haul for April 22nd & Lots of Freebies!

shopping-haul-april

I realize I’m posting my great shopping haul a week late. I had so many posts to do last week that I am now finally making time to share. I did have a great shopping trip last weekend. I snagged two freebies from Bath and Body Works.
shopping-trip-april

Then I went to Walmart and bought 2 Schick Hydro Silk Razors with the bonus shaving cream at $5.97 – $4/1 Coupon for $1.97 each! I paid less than $5 for both. These will make great Christmas presents.

shopping-trip-april

At CVS I bought the Children’s Allergy Liquid on sale for $5.99 and I had a $5 off any Allergy medication so 99 cents!
shopping-trip-april

At Dollar General I picked up the Nivea Body Wash for $2.50 each and had (2) $2 Coupons so total was $1.09 with tax!
shopping-trip-april

Back to CVS I bought the following Gillette Items to receive $10 ECB. Fusion Razor ($5 coupon); Venus Razor ($2 coupon); Fusion Shaving Cream ($1 coupon) and Gillette Body Wash ($1 coupon)= $22 after coupons and I had $8 ECB to roll in so I paid $15 with tax. I received my $10 ECB and I can use the Venus Razor for the P&G $15 Rebate!

I went to Target and did really well! I found 6 boxes of the Clairol Nice-N-Easy on clearance for $5.94 each. Each box had the bonus Pantene color protecting shampoo. I had the $5/2 coupons and I had 3 of them. I had the Band-Aid $2/1 coupon so I received the $2.64 for 64 cents and bought a Revlon nail clipper for FREE! I stacked the $2/1 Target tool coupon with a $1/1 MFR so I got 3 cents overage. I paid $21.xx with tax as I used my Red Card for an extra 5% off my total which paid for half my tax. I have that rebate for the $15 cash back! Between the Gillette Deal and this hair color deal minus rebate- I paid about $20 for all of it. Not too shabby. I have 6 boxes of hair color for $3.25 each or 50%. I also have shaving cream, razors for ourselves, and body wash. I am very happy as I saved over 50%. I got a catalina from Target for $3/1 Revlon which I can combine with a $2/1 MFR. I love Target and CVS!
shopping-trip-april

Last but not least was Walgreens. I broke that trip into two transactions since I didn’t have any Register Rewards. It’s so much to list so in the picture you can see I bought Lysol, Ivory, Dawn, Nivea, Purex, Colgate, Simalison, Toothpaste, Goody hair bands, Aquafresh toothpaste, and Opti-Free contact lens saline solution. That stuff is not cheap so I was thrilled to see it on sale with the $1.50 coupon so $7 for a box. Not great but cheaper than the $9.xx I normally would pay. Yes I wear soft so I have to use better brands. I have expensive air-optix as I have astigmatism in one eye.

None of it was FREE but I did pay $14 on one transaction and $20 on the other. I have $6.50 in Register Rewards. I had coupons for the majority of the sale stuff. I was happy to get the Nivea so cheap especially the shaving cream. I ended up paying $2/3 so a $1.50 a can! It was $2/7 – (2)$2/2= $2/3! Hey the cheap shaving cream is $1.64 or more a can! This was actually cheaper for a much better brand. Now hubby is set on shaving cream and body wash. I have lots of laundry detergent. I love those paks so easy to use in a front loader. I love the perfume-free detergents. I was able to pay for all of it with a FREE $50 gift card I won! That was even better.
