I never seem to find sales or coupons for Skintimate Shave foam. I've tried to use generics, but they make my skin to dry and rough. I finally got some coupons for .55 off one, so I got as many as I could (found 4 coupons) and I think I did good.

The regular price at Target for one can is $2.44. But you can get the twin pack for $3.99 ($2.00 per can) plus I then used the (4) coupons I had for .55 off. So I got 8 cans for $13.76, only $1.72 per can! Saved $5.76! So now I will be set for a long time...lol.

Got lots of great deals at Staples today! Some things to keep and some to sell. ALLLL of this for only $2.56 OOP!!!!

I also had a $5 coupon off a purchase of $30 or more, so after all of the rebates (which I already did online) I only spent $2.56 and got $112.71 worth of merchandise!!!! One of my best shopping trips yet!!

The only things I am keeping is the printer paper and the really useful boxes. I also splurged and bought myself a cute notebook that was on clearance for $1.00.

I am way behind on my Target/Menards/CVS posts since we had those vacations. Trying to get caught up.
Last week I had a coupon from Target for FREE Dozen Eggs...so I redeemed that.

Today I had a coupon for FREE Liter of Pepsi product and also a coupon for $2.00 off a $5.00 purchase of any Up and Up products.

So I got a 2 liter of Mt Dew, a box of 100 sandwich bags, and a box of 40 gallon storage bags, all for $5.50!

They recently remodeled my local Target and now have a lot more produce and groceries. Hopefully they keep sending out these great "FREE" coupons!

*ETA - Sold 4 headbands (profit $4.00), 2 pink earrings for $2.00 each (profit $2.00) at 9/7/12 rummage sale

Kohls
I got a coupon in the mail for Kohls, $10 off any $10 purchase. Normally when I get these type of coupons I try to find something for around $10 so I don't have to pay much OOP. But as I was shopping I found several good deals, and decided to spend a little on myself since I have been working so hard with all this OT and Bingo hours. While I was standing in line to checkout I found a 20% off coupon on the floor! That saved me an extra $10.76!

So I spent $17 on my CVS giftcard today, and I still have a $15.99 EB, so I go both items for total spent of $1.01 if you figure back in the EB.

Then I went to Target because I had a bunch of items that I could get with both a mfr coupon and a Target coupon.

I got to use 3 coupons on one purchase! Whoo hoo!

So at Target I saved $13.53 just by using coupons, and these were all needs. Gonna go add them to my stockpile.

I think I am going to put a cap on a few things in my stockpile unless then are absolutely rock bottom prices. I think toothpaste, tampons, bar soap and shampoo/conditioner are going to be on hold for now, unless I can get them for insanely cheap. It is hard for me to pass up a good deal, but I don't want to be one of those crazy people on TV that keep TP under their kids beds....lol....as long as I can keep it contained to the bathroom cupboard and linen closet storage I should be good!

Target

I needed some new jeans for Bingo so I went and picked up a pair from Target. While we were there DH found some good deals for him on the clearance rack.

Khaki shorts - Regular $19.99 - Clearance $9.98
Dry Fit shirt - Regular $9.99 - Clearance $5.48

Saved $14.52

This was very weird as DH never buys clothes, but he wondered over to the clearance rack while I was in the dressing room. I am glad he did as now he will have shorts for next year that were 50% off!


Grocery Shopping

Went to the grocery store to get a few things and saw that they had Pillsbury cake mix, regular $1.71 a box, on sale for .80 a box. This is what we use for our cupcakes for the rummage sale. So I bought 15 boxes for $12, saving $13.65!! Only have to sell 2 cupcakes to make back the cost of the cake mix. This is also a great way to stock up for making cupcakes for DH's students, or if I bring a cake to work.

I may stop back tomorrow if I have time and pick a few more pairs if there are any left.

I was at Target to buy some soup on sale and stopped by their little $1 section. A bunch of their $1 items were on 70% off. So I bought a ton of stuff for .30 that I know I can sell for $1 a piece at the rummage sale next year.

We don't drink bottled water, but we can sell the bottles at the rummage sale for $1 a piece, which would be a profit of $66 - last weekend we did that with 2 cases of water, sold every single bottles we had for a profit of $45!!

Rainchecks:

I seperated my order in to 2 seperate purchases at the cash register.

First I had a coupon to get a $5 giftcard for purchasing 2 products off of a list (tp, papertowels, or diapers), so I got 2 packs of Charmin TP and received a $5 giftcard. Plus I also had a .25 off TP that I used on the same purchase.

Then for my second order, I used my other coupons:
$1 off Herbal Essences product
$1.50 off Target Brand Laundry Detergent
.75 off Target Brand Tampons
Buy one get one Free Tampax ($3.99 FREE)
Plus $1.00 off 2 boxes of Tampax (So for 2 boxes it should have been $7.98 total, but after BOGO and $1 off coupon = $2.99 total)
Then on top of that I used my $5 giftcard that I just got for purchasing the TP in the first transation.

Total saved from coupons and free giftcard = $13.49!!

My stockpile closet is starting to get really full as I always like to use coupons for items that we will always need, and that won't exprire. Such as TP, papertowels, razors, tampons, shaving foam, shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent etc. That way I don't get stuck in a situation where we are out of one of those items and have to pay full price for it. But I need to organize my stockpile to see what I have in there now and what we can wait on purchasing for awhile.

Normally I don't like to shop at Kmart because it always takes 10 years to check out there. But I had some good coupons that were Kmart specific. And it took 10 years to check out again.....oh well, got some good deals.


$1 off Skintimate Shave foam
- Normally $3.13, on sale for $1.99. I noticed that the 10oz can was the same price as the 7oz can. So I got the larger can for
$1.99
- $1.00 coupon
= .99

$1 off Kmart brand tampons
- I have never seen coupons for generic brand tampons. I only ever see coupons for the brand names like Tampax or Kotex, and even with coupons they usually cost more then the generics. So the generic box was:
$4.99 (comparable brand name was $7.49)
- $1.00 coupon
= $3.99 for 40ct box

Buy One Get One Free 12 oz bottle Herbal Essences
PLUS $3.00 off 2 bottles Herbal Essences
-I had 2 seperate coupons, 1 Kmart coupon and 1 mfr coupon
$7.98 ($3.99 each)Regular Price
-$3.99 BOGO coupon
-$3.00 coupon
= .99 for 2 bottles (.48 each!)

Total spent was $6.51 and total saved was $7.19! Pretty happy to have saved more then I spend when I only spent $6.51 total!

Went to JCP since the bras I like are on sale for 50% off. We also needed new pillows, DH's neck has been bugging him, so I have been waiting for a good sale on pillows. There was an extra 20% for paying with a JCP card, I haven't had one since I worked there about 8 years ago, so I applied for a new one and was approved with a $2000 limit. Shopping spree time! LOL, J/K!

$35.00 bra, on sale for $16.99, minus $3.40 for using JCP card = $13.59
$35.00 bra, on sale for $16.99, minus $3.40 for using JCP card = $13.59
$35.00 bra, on sale for $16.99, minus $3.40 for using JCP card = $13.59
$19.99 2 Pack Pillows, on sale for $8.99, minus .90 for using JCP card = $8.09
Total Spent = $51.79
Total Saved = $76.13

I also went to Target to get deoderant for DH. While I was there I found a deal on Playtex Tampons. When you bought 2 boxes you got a $5 giftcard for Target. So when I checked out I did 2 seperate transactions. Bought the Playtex and got my $5 giftcard in the first transaction, then got DH 4 deoderants and a bottle of pop on the second transaction and used the $5 giftcard right away.

My bride was in town for her dress fitting so we decided while the boys were at the Bachelor Party we would go shopping for our own grand finale! I had a lot of fun and got a lot of good deals on SUPER cute clothes!

Then I went to Target and got the bridal shower gift and wedding gift for the wedding I am the MOH in. Spent $50 and got a canister set, some cute spring spatulas, a tumbler set and a game. Also got a basketball for DH that was on sale ($4.30 off).

Also went to Red Lobster today and used my $10 coupon. Yeah for Lobsterfest! So yummy!

So while we were waiting around at CVS for DH's meds we found some good deals. Valentines Candy was 75% off!

$.97 Kleenex - Saved $1.02

$1.25 Big Heart Strawberry Chocolates - Saved $3.74
$1.25 Big Heart of Mini Candy Bars - Saved $3.74
$1.25 Big Heart of Mini Candy Bars - Saved $3.74
$.75 Mini Heart Box of Chocolates - Saved $2.24

Total Spent $6.83!
Total Saved was $15.50!

Now the chocolates we definitely not needs......but 75% off of Valentines Candy is a great deal. All of the candy was for DH except the Strawberry Cream Chocolates were for me (just had one and it was AH-Mazing!). DH will freeze the rest and eat them for the next month or two. Of couse we were out of Kleenex again since I was sick for so long, but am feeling lots better, so these should last for more then a week this time.

I also signed up for their "extra care rewards" card. So starting in April I should get 2% back from any purchases made in Jan - March 2011. I don't shop at CVS very often, usually only when we are getting an RX, but every little bit of savings helps!

I mentioned that our Christmas tree fell over and the stand broke. So had to get new tree. Figured it was best to look now at the after Christmas sales rather then wait till next Christmas season. Found a $465 tree (WHAT! Who would pay that much for a tree??) at JCP on sale 75% off, plus I had a $10 off coupon. So got it for $110. Saved $355!! WOW! I think the tree was way to expensive to start with, but am happy with the deal I got. Hopefully I will never have to buy another tree for the rest of my life.

I had a spend $10 get $10 off coupon for JCP in the mail. I really didn't need anything, so looked around for a good deal to use my free $10 on.

3 prs of gloves
Regularily $15.00
On sale on for $3.99

Long sleeve thermal (it's so cute!)
Regularily $20.00
On sale for $9.99

I really don't need the gloves so I am not sure if I will sell them or keep them yet. But the thermal I really like.
We also had a spend $75 save $15 coupon which DH used when he was buying Christmas presents for his Dad and grandma.
