CVS Trips on 12/12/2008

All of us were sick with the cold this weekend. Friday I hoped to get some errands done but instead spent the day on the couch with the baby. That evening my dear husband took the three of us out to run some of the errands. We went to one CVS to return a prescription and went to another to pick one up. I'm going to write a post about this later but if you are a bargain shopper you MUST train your spouse not to buy things off the list. My dear husband loves to shop. When I returned my prescription, I bought some pedialyte for our daughter. 2 Pedialyte 5.49 each -4 ECB -5/2 Pedialyte liters Tax .17 OOP 2.15 (Should have used GC!) The cashier was so…

Kmart Shopping Trip 12/5/2008

Kmart, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized

Ok, I give a big thanks to my wonderful husband, who went with me after work and, for my helpful in-laws for watching the baby. Grandma watches the baby at least once a month since the baby in daycare 4 days a week, I get every other Friday off. Today, she spent the day with Grandma. I told my husband that Kmart was having double coupons and he needed a couple of things at Kmart so we planned to go this evening. It worked out pretty well! A couple coupons didn't scan perfectly. The cashier didn't match them up to the correct item or didn't enter in the correct amount, however, I saved a lot! The cashier, my husband and I were impressed by our savings. Here it goes. RubberMaid…

Sorry, for not posting this earlier but I've been busy with the baby and cleaning up after Thanksgiving. Like I mentioned in earlier posts I had a good time on Black Friday. After my crazy early morning run at Walmart and then my two CVS trips, I headed home. My dear husband and baby were up and waiting for me. After my hubby learned of my good deals he got the itch too and we set out to run some errands. Before we knew it we were at Home Depot. One of the items that I wish we could have gotten was a 7.5 ft LED light Tree normally $199 down to $45. Those must have sold out at 6AM! Good deals: 1 -Turbo Knife set 9.97 3 -36 piece…

Ok, I have to admit I've never in my life presented so many coupons in one trip. I was THAT lady! In fact, I had a question for the cashier about the $10 off for the Turkey and she accidentally voided the transaction so a manager had to enter in my receipt by estimating it. Here is a picture of the trip! (Minus the Turkey, veggies and frozen food for obvious reasons.) [caption id="attachment_133" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Shoppers Trip 11/23/2008"][/caption] Here it goes what I bought and added up coupons I used.
