Week of January 8th: CVS deals

Check out this week's CVS ad!

Suave deoderant is on sale for $1.00....and there is a coupon to save 75 cents, which means that each deodorant will be only TWENTY FIVE CENTS!

Axe Shower Gel is on sale for $4.49 each. If you buy three gels you get $4.00 in ECB's. Here is a scenario involving the BOGO coupon and dollar-off coupon available this week:

#1. Buy four shower gels for $18.00. Use two BOGO coupons from this week's paper to make the final cost $9.00 for four gels.

$9.00 - $4.00 ECB= $5.00, or $1.25 per shower gel.

or,

#2. By three shower gels for $13.50. Use one BOGO coupon AND one "$1 off" coupon, which means you will pay $8.00 out of pocket for three gels AND get $4.00 in ECB  back.

Emerald Almonds and Emeral Nut "One the go blend" are on sale two for $7.00.
A coupon is available to save 75 cents off of one product! Final price is $2.75!

Several different varieties of Nabisco crackers are on sale two for $5.00 (or $2.50 each). There is a coupon this week to save $3.00 off of three crackers, so if you buy three boxes for $7.50, your final price after coupon will be $4.50, or $1.50 each!

Last minute CVS couponing trip!

Even if I am just going to the store for one or two items, I still bring my coupon binder with me. Today's trip to CVS yielded me some high savings on necessities. After getting what I needed, I wandered around looking at all the little yellow tags to see what was on sale in each aisle. If I saw something I liked and could use, AND I had a coupon for it, it was mine! Sometimes its just fun to see what kind of last minutes deals you can score! Here is my haul..... and it all cost a mere FOURTEEN DOLLARS!!

My total savings was over $50!

Back to the coupons-- 2012 edition!

Despite the holiday, coupons were still included in today's newspaper ('Smart Source', 'Red Plum', and "P and G")!

The latest coupons and sales seem to still be focused on medications, soups, and vitamins (all that 'wintery' health stuff), with the added category of healthy foods to go along with the start of the new year. Check out  this article to see how you can predict what is going to be on sale each month.

Check out a few deals I found:


Are you trying to quit smoking for your new year's resolution? This week there is a copon to save $15.00 off of Nicorette gum, AND a *M-Perks coupon to save $15 off of a nicorette purchase. Also, this stuff is on sale for $5.oo off the normal price. This is a triple whammy! A total savings of THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS!!!

*******For those of you who don't know, M-Perks is the website for Meijer, where you can clip coupons to your online account. These are all considered to be 'store coupons', so you can combine 'manufactures coupons' from your newspaper with an M-Perks coupon when buying an item.This is called 'stacking' coupons.


If you are looking to stack your coupons this week, there are also the following coupons that are available both in the newspaper AND on the M-Perks website:


-Heft garbage bags
-Sensodyne toothpaste
-Hefty zip-lock baggies
-Playtex items
-Nature Made Vitamins-- BOGO free this week!


Other deals include:

Nivea body wash is on sale two for $7.00. There is a coupon this week in the newspaper to save $1.00 off of one item. The final price will be $2.50 per wash.

Slimfast 4-packs are on sale for $5.00 each this week. There is an awesome BOGO free coupon in this week's paper, so you can save big on these!

Week of December 18th--No coupons this week :-(

I suspect there wont be any next week either, because of the Christmas holiday being on Sunday (and the next Sunday is New Years Day, so who knows about that week either).  Now is a good time to clean out your binders and get them ready for what will probably be a huge amount of coupons whenever it is that they are published next. See you in 2012 coupons!
