We went shopping tonight.....

Throughout the week I have been making my lists of sales and coupon matchups at each store I planned on going to. This was the first BIG trip Tim and I were taking with the coupon binder. I was prepared! Luckily today, I got my first envelope of coupons in the mail from the coupon exchange I participate in. That was even better because I was able to get even more of a deal. I am going to list the stores and what we got and then post pictures of all of the items together. All totals include tax.


First stop CVS where we got:
3 airwick iMotion air fresheners- on sale for $4.99 each with $4.00 coupon= $.99 each total-$4.35


Then Target, who had a hard time understanding my coupons...but that is another story.
1st order:
6 Old Spice body wash on sale $3.99 and used 3 BOGO coupons. When you bought 3, you earned a $5 Target gift card. So I paid $12.15 for all 6 plus got the 2 gift cards. (I later gave customer service a $1 off 2 body wash coupons because the cashier didn't understand that this coupon could still be used because YES I was still paying for 3 and did NOT use a coupon on those 3- so in reality I paid $11.15 for these). Making these around $2 each


2nd order:
2 soft scrubs for $2.79 each used a BOGO
Scrubbing bubbles power sprayer $8.69 (other sites have mentioned his being on sale for $6.99 but it is not here)- used a $5 coupon
2 Wonka exceptionals bars (or whatever they are called) $2 each used a BOGO and $1 off coupon
2 Act II popcorn (again other sites mention this as $1 but not here) $1.77 each, used $1 off 2 coupon
Total: $11.98 used two gift cards earned in last order and paid $1.98 in cash


Third stop, Kroger
2 totinos pizza rolls $1.25 each used a $.50 coupon (doubled)
2 totinos pizza $1.25 each used a $1.00 coupon
2 gatorade $.99 each
