Super Savings Saturday - 2/6/16

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday!

This week it was all about the drug stores. Because my fridge/freezer and cabinets were full, I didn’t set foot in a single grocery store (rare for me!). Sometimes I get burned out running from store to store, so this was a nice break for me. Of course, now we’re almost entirely out of food and I’ll have to do a mega shop next week, but that’s how it goes, right?

CVS:

3 Hallmark greeting cards, regular price $0.99. I used a $3.00/3 store coupon. Total: Free, plus $2.00 ECB’s.

Colgate toothpaste, on sale $3.00. I used a $2.50 store coupon stacked with a $0.50 manufacturer’s coupon. Total: Free!

2 Crispy M&M’s, on sale $0.99. I used a BOGO coupon. Total: $0.99, plus $0.75 ECB’s. (I thought theses were so gross, but the rest of the family loved them. Go figure!)

Rite Aid:

2 CeraVe soap, regular price $6.99. I used 2 $3.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $7.98, plus $8.00 Plenti Points.

2 Chloraseptic sore throat lozenges, on sale $4.99. I used 2 $1.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $7.98, plus $8.00 Plenti Points.

Notice how the medicine was tagged but the soap isn’t? This is very common that not all sale items are marked, so I always double check by separating my transactions. Sure, some cashiers complain, but it’s my money and I like to make sure I’m only buying what’s actually a deal.
