Weekly Winners January 25-31: SNOW!

I haven’t been participating in Weekly Winners much recently because, well…let me tell you a secret: I cannot take good pictures INDOORS. But luckily this week with the snow, we had an excuse to get outside so I got some good pics!

Did I mention we also had ice with our snow?

We had a great time, but I am looking forward to it melting now! For more Weekly Winners, go visit Lotus at Sarcastic Mom.

Return to Dew Mountain

So, yesterday I got out of the house FINALLY after the huge snow we had this week, and of course I went straight to CVS. Ok, that’s a lie. First I went to drop off some jeans to get hemmed but ONLY because it’s I have to drive past that shop to get to CVS. Oh, and did I mention my DADDY drove me in his 4-wheel drive? Yes, this CVS run was that important! Can you guess what I got? It wasn’t the most profitable transaction ever, but sometimes you gotta dew what you gotta dew.

Five 12-packs of Mountain Dew $3.34 each = $16.70(I already put on in the fridge when I took this picture. Couldn’t waste any time!)
Four L’eggs pantyhose clearance at $1.25 each! WOOHOO! (Couldn’t pass those up!) $5
Two Gatorade/Propel $1.25 each = $2.50
Tostitos $3
Fusion Gamer razor $7.99
Total = $35.19

I only had two coupons! A Rite Aid $5/$25 and a $4 Fusion q
Total = $26.19
I used 24 ECB and paid $3.05 on a CVS gift card, and got back 14 ECB – 10 for the Pepsi products and 4 for the razor!

AND I GOT MY DEW! 😉

How did YOU dew (I can’t stop myself!) this week? For more couponing adventures, check out CVS Superstars at the Centsible Sawyer or Super Savings Saturday at Money Saving Mom.
