Small moneymaker trip

CVS

I bought the U by Kotex tampons. They are on sale for $4.99 with $4.99 back in ECB. I had a $1/1 U by Kotex product print when I scanned my card. So... I MADE $1.

Jewel

I bought 4 24 packs of Ice Mountain water bottles. They are on sale for $2.99 each. You get a $5 catalina back when you buy 4 Ice Mountain water. So, $7 for 96 bottles of water.

Target

I usually don't do many "deals" at Target, but I did today. On target.com, click on coupons on the bottom for lots of Target only coupons. I printed 2 $1/1 Wonka bars. I also printed 2 $1/1 Wonka bars from coupons.com. The Wonka bars are $2.29 each. You can use 1 Target coupon and 1 manufacturer coupon. So I got 2 bars for $.58.

I also had 1 BOGO free Sobe water coupon(IP). On Target's coupons there is a coupon for $.50 off the water. I bought 2 and used 1 BOGO and 2 $.50 off coupons making them both free!

last day for free Produce!















Jewel

I got:
1 almost 5 Ib cabbage($3.20)
1 blueberries($2.99)
2 tomatoes($1.75)
3 packages baby carrots($1.49 each)
2 pack cheesecake($2.99)
1 package celery($1.49)
2 cucumbers($.66)
1 watermelon($3.49)
1 2-liter Minute Maid lemonade($1.49)
1 kiwi($.50)

Nuts and sponges

Jewel

Fisher dry roasted peanuts are BOGO free, at $3.89 each. Use 2 $1/1 from 2/28SS and 6/20SS to make these $1.89 for 2 jars(only about $.95 a jar).

3-packs of Scotch brite sponges are on sale BOGO free, at $3.99 each. Use 2 $1/1 IP(no longer available) and get these for only $1.99!! That makes each sponge only $.33. If you don't have the IP, use $1/2 from 7/11SS to make these $2.99.

Sorry, not much going on lately

I have not posted in a while as there have not been any really good deals out there. I did get the Colgate Total toothpaste that was free after RR. I also had a $1/1 coupon from 7/11RP(?) , making this a small MM.

I have been using the $2 Produce coupons too, but don't want to bore you all with what I get.

There is a good deal at Dominicks starting tomorrow if you like Kraft shredded or chunk cheese. They are going on sale for $1.99 each. You get a $5 catalina when you buy 5 Kraft products. So, buy 5 for $9.95 and get back $5. Not bad. Use 2 $1/2 cheese coupons from Dominick's dairy book(they are expired, but Dominicks takes expired coupons) to make this $7.95 for 5 cheeses, get back $5, so your total OOP would be about $3 for 5.

More bread and produce

I am glad I printed up some extra bread coupons from Jewel's e-mail site on Wednesday, as it is no longer available-FYI. I have a feeling that the produce coupon may disappear soon too.


Jewel:

I did the following deal twice:
1 take and bake bread($3.49)
1 package mushrooms($1.99)

My total was $5.64. I used a $2 PRODUCE coupon and a $3 freebread. My total was $.49, which I don't understand because some of the tax disappeared after using the coupons.

I also got:
3 green peppers($.58)
1 take and break bread($3.49)

My total was $5.31. I used a $2 PRODUCE coupon and a $3 freebread. My total was $.22.

CVS

Went to CVS today. Most of the things I was looking for were gone. However, my sister needed some things, so combined with what I needed, I did good. I scanned my card at the machine and got a $5 off when you spend $20. Here is what I got.

2 Tampax($3)
1 Tide($5.97)-sister(I got 6 laundry detergents earlier this year for $1.26, but those are not good enough for her)
1 Dean's skim milk($2.69)
1 Gillette Fushion razor($9.97)

I had a $5 coupon, a $4/1 Gillette from 6/6PG, 2 $1/1 Tampax from 6/6 PG, 1 $1/1 Tide from 7/4 PG. My total was $13.29. I got back a $5(razor), $1(Tide), $1(Tampax), and $1(milk) ECB. Total was $5.29. Once I collect from my sister, I will have MADE $.21.

Also went to Jewel and got 4 more cartons of ice cream and 3 Fisher Fushion nuts. The nuts are on sale for $1.29 and I had 3 $1/1 coupons.

Red Plum

Just looking at some coupon sites. Noticed that on redplum.com there is a coupon for one free can of Libby's vegetables. You can print 2 per computer. Free vegetables are good! Make sure to print them fast, because I bet they will hit their limit quickly.

I just can't stop

I got more ice cream today. I will admit it!! I did the 2 deals I did yesterday today again. My freezer is about as full as I can pack it. I also went to the Outlet Mall in Pleasant Prairie. I got 4 packages of goldfish crackers for $1.50 total. Regular price was $1.50 each. They were marked down to $.75 each and BOGO free. The expiration dates are July 2, which is fine, since they will be gone in my family within the week. Happy 4th of July to everyone. I think things will be quiet for a few days, storewise.
