We needed the phone refill. I am going to get 2 more batteries to get the $5 SCR rebate.
I have enough allergy rewards to get the $20 gift card from Rite Aid.
Will get back $1 clorox, $1 glad.
Already have the $2 SCR for huggies, and I will get the FREE voucher for huggies as well.

Total value of all products $201.20
Total I paid today $13.91 (this is without the phone card included b/c this was used to get the batteries so I am not counting it towards my coupon purchases)
$19.94 if you add the food stamp totals in.
After rebates my total Out Of Pocket expense is 0! I made about $15 just to purchase all these items!
It's sad that I paid more in tax than I did for the actual items. Very sad indeed.

Getting better at this trips.


I made a quick stop in to Rite Aid & Walgreens after work today.

2 identical transactions at each store.

Rite Aid was first.

4 Airwick Mini Freshmatic Regular Price $9.99 on sale 50% off so $4.99 each = $19.96
2 Clean & Clear Regular Price $5.49 on sale for 2/$9.00
2 Bandaid Regularly $3.49 on sale for $1.99 so $3.98 for 2
10 Stayfree regular $3.99 on sale for $1.99 each so 10 were $19.90
Total Value of all products @ sale price $52.84
(If they were not on sale their regular value would be $97.82, that's what you'd
pay if you walked into Walmart on any given day and pay, do you really think that's
'low everyday prices'?)

Coupons used:
2 $5/25 Rite Aid Internet printables
2 $2/1 Clean & Clear IPs
2 $.50/1 Bandaid from newspaper insert
2 $.50/1 Rite Aid In Ad Coupons
10 $2/1 Stayfree from newspaper insert

Total paid after sales & all coupons was.....

$.84 cents.

I will buy one more clean & clear and get a $5 rebate from Rite Aid.


Walgreens, 2 identical transactions:

4 Off Clip On Starters regular $9.99 each, on sale for $8.99 so for 4 $35.96
6 chips $2.00 (paid with food stamps)
1 Shick Quattro Trim Style $8.99
1 Shick Quattro Razor System $8.99 because the Trim style was the last one left.
Both razors were on sale.
Total of all products $55.94

Coupons used:

2 Buy One Get One Free Off Clip On Starter Internet Printable -$17.98
2 $4/1 Shick Quattro Razor or Refill from newspaper insert
2 $2/1 Off Clip on Starter Internet Printable
4 $2/1 Off Clip on Starter Instant Value Coupon Booklet from Walgreens 'stacked' with
the $2/1 and bogo coupons'
6 $3/1 Register Rewards from the Stayfree I bought for $2.99 at Walgreens. Buy Stayfree for
$2.99 and use a $2/1 coupon, get a $3 Register Reward back. (bought lots of those on Sunday)

Total of all coupons used: $55.98
Total paid after all coupons and food stamps for the food was $3.96

So I got $153.76 worth of products for $4.80 paid out of pocket.
Received $6 back in Register Rewards on the 2 Shick razors.

Still think those walmart prices are low?

Still think it's a waste of your time to clip coupons?

That's how I do it.
