Sometimes when I leave the drugstore with a bag of stuff I’ve pretty much gotten for FREE-99 as I like to say, I feel like a looter! A pillager! Even though I am a totally honest couponer, I still feel like I need to run out the door before they make me give everything back!
Such was the case at Rite Aid and CVS today. My Rite Aid loot is above. Here’s what I got!
Two Gillette men’s body was $5.98
Herbal Essences $2.49
Veet $5.84 (regular $6.49 but I get 10% off regular price w. my Rite Aid Wellness + card)
Coppertone $8.99
Scotch tape 3-pack CLEARANCE $1.25
total= $24.55 (I hadn’t realized I would get a discount on the Veet. The manager rang me up and still let me use my $5/$25 coupon.)
Coupons:
$5/$25 Rite Aid video values coupon
-$1 Herbal Essences q from recent P&G insert
-$4/2 Gillette body washes from recent P&G insert
– $1 off Coppertone printable (coupons.com)
-$3 off Coppertone Rite Aid Video Values q
-$3 off Veet printable q (Veet.com)
-$3 off Veet Rite Aid Video Values q
-$1 off Veet Rite Aid in-ad q – this week’s ad
total= $3.55, tax $1.30 paid $4.85 out-of-pocket
Will get back a $2.99 rebate for the Gillette, $1.50 for the Herbal Essences, and received $2 +UP rewards for the Coppertone. So, a profit of $1.61 for this trip!
Next – CVS was even better than I thought it would be!
I got:
Two IZZE soft drinks clearance 80 cents
Three Power Bars $2.97
Schick Hydro razor $8.97
Gillette ProGlide razor $9.97
Two Old Spice body washes $8
total = $30.71
Coupons I used
$5/$30 CVS email coupon I got this week – WOOT!
-$4 B1G1 Free Old Spice odor blocker body wash from P&G rebate coupon book
-$4 Gillette ProGlide q from last week’s P&G inserts
-$5 Schick Hydro q from today’s SmartSource insert
-$8 in ECBs I earned in last night’s trip
total = $4.71, $1.34 tax, paid $6.05 out-of-pocket
And I got back $8 ECB for the body wash (this was supposed to be limit 1, but they apparently made it limit 2!! so this was my good surprise on this trip!), $4 for the Schick razor, $2.97 for the PowerBars and $5 for the ProGlide razor. So I spend $6.05 + 8 ECB and I got back $19.97 ECB which is a $5.92 PROFIT for this trip! Woohoo!
