Save on Food!

I finally got some time to check the local sales ads to give everyone the "heads up" on sales that you can combind your coupons with. Remember, Harris Teeter and Lowes Food will double your coupon. Food Lion will take a coupon, but will NOT double it.

Harris Teeter:

Lowes Food Store

If you take your own bags to Lowes, they will give you 50 extra green points. I like to build my green points up and use toward a free gallon of Milk.

Dont Forget, Tuesday is the last day to use your coupons for the great Cereal deals at Harris Teeter!

More Deals

Pert Deal: I went to Walmart today to use my Pert coupons and buy $5.00 in school items. They were OUT of Pert!! I guess word got around. Anyway, I understand that this deal will also work at Kmart. Pert is $2.99 there, the coupon is for $3.00 off each bottle. Remember, you must buy $6.00 in Pert products and $5.00 in school items at the SAME TIME. Send in your receipt and you'll receive a check for $5.00 (to pay for the school supplies.)

Walgreens

Once again, I can not download the pic of my savings from Walgreens, but they were also great. One thing to keep in mind about Walgreens is to SHOP THE END OF THE ISLES!! This is where they have clearance items. Also, keep in mind that each Walgreens is different, so they may have diffent items on clearnce for more or less than other stores. I have two in High Point and one in Adams Farm that I visit often. Today, I scored big between the cleanance items and coupons! I found Loreal Color Vive Conditionar for $1.24 each. I picked up all three bottles for $.24 cents each because I had a $1.00 for each bottle! I also used a coupon in the Aug. Walgreen Rebate book for $1.00 to use towards Garnier Fructis Styling Cream that was marked down to $1.99. I also found Pantene Pro-V Hairspray for $1.24 each. I had a coupon for $1.00 of when you buy Two. I also got a 4 pack of Angel Soft TP for .99 cents, Kraft Shells & Cheese for $1.67 x 2, Scubbing Bubbles Action Scrubber (This is a money maker. It was marked at $5.49, plus I had a $2.75 coupon. I have a rebate to receive $5.00 back plus $1.50 rebate in the Walgreens book.) I also picked up two packs of pens for .9 each and some page protecters for .50 each. My total was $13.78.


LIKE TO READ???

I found that Citi Trends, a local clothing store, has great books for great prices! Most of the books are inspirinal and priced low. I picked up a book by Joyce Meyer - Woman to Woman for $4.99 and a cook book by Delilah Winder (Everyday Soul - Southern Cooking with Style), this book was $2.91. I may even use this cook book! LOL

Please make sure to share any tips, sales that you know of or a great trip you had!

Savings for 8/3/08

Hello again,

I missed a few days from sharing the savings with everyone. Just have A LOT going on, but that is a story for another day. I hope everyone has at least 2 Sunday papers because there were 3 packets of coupons this week.

CVS:
If you use your CVS card, you will get a free gift. Make sure you look at the bottom of your receipt!
Dawn is on sale for .88 cents, plus there was a .50 coupon = .38 for each bottle.//
Tide is on sale for 4.97, there was a 1.00 coupon in todays paper = 3.97 (great deal for Tide!)//
Pert is bogo, plus there was a $3.00 coupon. I am not sure what the total price is at CVS. I am going to play this coupon at WALMART. Pert is around $2.89, so it will be free. However, there was a mail in rebate that when you puchase $6.00 of Pert and/or Sure, you will get a $5.00 check for any school supplies you purchased at the same time. Walmart has some great deals for back to school, so I'll use my coupons there. ///
There are also several deals on Makeup this week. Remember, the key is to buy items that you have a coupon for and/or use your CVS bucks on items in which you will receive more CVS bucks back. You just keep flipping the CVS bucks.

Walgreens has more back to school savings, see the weekly ad. Angel soft tissue is .99 cents per 4 pack. Right Guard is 1/1 and there was a coupon in last weeks coupons.

I need to plan my "MENU" for the month, so I'll end this now. I know, I really feel like I am turning into Mrs. Cleaver. However, I really NEED to spend wisely this month.

Please let me know about any good back to school sales you find, so we can share it with everyone.

Till next time,

Amber

Oops, forgot the Walgreens Pic

CVS & Walgreens

I'll post the details of CVS over the weekend, I left the receipt in my car. TOO late to go out and get it. Plus, it's raining. Which is great, because that is free water for my yard! lol

Walgreens had a $5.00/20.00 coupon that was good for today only. I used it because I needed ink for my printer. This is what I bought...

8 rolls of Sparkle paper towels (reg price $7.29) on sale for $5.49, .55 coupon = $4.99///
Walgreens 24 pack of bottled water (reg price $4.99) on sale for $2.99///
Dove shampoo & conditioner (reg price $4.99 each) bogo sale plus 2/2.00 coupons = 1.00 for both!///
Johnson & Johnson lotion and baby wash ($3.99 & $3.79 each) on sale buy one/get one 50% off = $5.88 plus a $2.00 off coupon = $3.88///
Refill on black ink for printer $10.00.
Remember my $5.00 coupon off of $20.00 = Total for this trip $21.38 including tax!! If I paid full price for everything my total would have been $40.04! I saved almost half of the reg. bill!
