Target trip today!!

Had to run to Target in the snow (I know, I'm obsessed...) because I found a great deal on KY and Jergens!  While there I found a steal on Almay eye makeup... Kicking myself for not keeping a binder.  If you're going to coupon at Target, you definitely need a binder!!  I also had to get some grocery things that I got with the gift card from trans 1.  Here's what I did:


Transaction 1:
(2) KY Yours+Mine 3 oz. $14.99 = $29.98
Buy 2 get $10 gift card
(2) -$7 facebook coupons
$2.99 each

Paid $16.93, got $10 gc

Transaction 2:
Pecans $4.84
Powdered Sugar $1.49
Marshmallows $1.87
Marshmallow shaker can $1.49 (we had to make Hoth cocoa [V-day present, yes, it's Star Wars!] because it was snowing today)
(3) Jergens lotion 12.5 oz. (ad says 10 oz. but these rang up at same price) $2.96
-$2 1/1 SS
$.96 each!  (Really great lotion deal)
Total: $19.20
After gc and coupons: $3.20


While there, I did some browsing to see what good deals I could find.  Since I didn't bring my binder (I have to admit, it's a little embarrassing!) I took pictures of the deals I thought had a coupon and then consulted my binder/internet.  Sure enough, this is what I found:
Almay intense i color on clearance for $2.38 - $2 1/1 SS = $.38!!!  Will definitely have to go back for those!

Also saw an Air Wick Freshmatic Ultra for $2.48.  Can't tell from the picture if it's the starter kit or not.  If it is, there's a $2 for that.  If it's just the device there's a $1 coupon.  Both are in the 1/29 SS.

Happy couponing! :)

I made 2 trips to HT today:


12 Nivea lip $1.50 - $3/2 = FREE
6 Got2b stylers $3.19 - $3 = $.19
Krave cereal $2.49 - $.70 IP - $.70 ZVR - $.70 S* = $.31 MM!
Activia 4 pk. $2 - (forgot to use the $1 coupon!) - $1 ZVR = $1

Before coupons/sales: $82.65
After: $3.91

On the way out, I saw gud products on clearance. I also went home and read my weekend ad and saw a deal for DIAPERS which I always do, so I spent a little more:

Huggies Slip On $7.97 - $2 - $1.50 ZVR = $4.47
Huggies Supreme $7.97 - $2 - $1.50 ZVR = $4.47
Huggies Jumbo $7.97 - $1.50 - $1.50 ZVR = $4.97
Huggies Pure & Natural $7.97 - $1.50 - $1.50 ZVR = $4.97
(2) American Greetings Cards @ $5.49 + (2) @ $2.99 - B2G1 = $13.97 (you can't skimp on cards ) - Got FREE strawberry planter!!! $9.99 value
6 Nivea lip FREE
3 Got2b Stylers $.19 each
Strawberry 1 lb. $2.49

(2) gud Body butter $4.08 - $1 IP = $3.08


Before coupons: $129.17

Today's Trip: Harris Teeter and Walmart!


Here's what I got today.  I'll also be including a list of other great deals that I wasn't able to get today (printer issues).



Harris Teeter:
(6) Uncle Ben's Rice $1.67 - $.85/3 = $1.10 each
HT Vinegar $.67
Hillshire Farms Grilled Essentials $3.50 - $1 IP - $1 ZVR = $1.50
Kleenex Cool Touch $2.59 (should have been $1.29 BOGO... will have to go to CS, ugh!) - $.40 mailer DND5 - $.50 ZVR = Should have been free if doubled... Ended up paying $1.49, will have to go to CS for the $1.29...
(6) Dannon Oikos Greek yogurt 6 oz. $1 - $.75/3 blinkie DND9 = $.75 each
Sambazon juice (not pictured) $2.50 - $2 IP (from coupons.com, no longer available) = $.50
Activia 4-pk. $2 - $1 IP (Allyou.com, there's also one in the Feb All You) - $1 ZVR = FREE (The ZVR reloads!!!)

Total before coupons: $29.90
Total after coupons: $2.71, with $1.29 to get back from CS = $1.42
(Technically I should get another Kleenex free since it rang up incorrectly.  It pays to know!!!)



So, that was fun.  Then I went to Wal Mart because some coupons I had for FREE items were expiring today.  I did two transactions:

Transaction #1
1 KY Jelly $2.84 - $3 IP = $.16 MM
2 Reach floss cinnamon (mmm!) $.97 - $1 IP = $.03 MM
I paid $.02 after tax for these.

Transaction #2
3 Advil PM 20 ct. $4.36 - $1 = $3.36 x 3 = $10.08 - $10 MIR = $.08 for three!

An important thing to remember when doing rebates is to not have two things you are planning to use a MIR for on the same receipt since most require an original receipt.

So, here are my totals for today!
Total before coupons: $48
Total after coupons and MIR: $1.52

Wheeeeee!  That was fun. :)

Results: Harris Teeter and Farm Fresh!



Went to Harris Teeter and Farm Fresh today... had a BLAST!  Andy and I are eating healthier (Yay!) so I'm not getting a lot of the junk these days, even if it is a "good deal."  (Although when you consider healthcare costs down the road, the savings are negligible).  Here's the rundown:

Transaction 1:
Pampers big box $24.99 - $1.50 P&G - $1.50 ZVR = $21.99
Vicks Nature Fusion $5.99 - $3 P&G - $3 ZVR = $.01 MM
-$20 Credit
+ 5% tax $1.25 = $3.23

I did NOT get the cat for the $10 prepaid card... I went to CS but they told me it had to be $30 after coupons... Pretty sure this isn't the case (it never has been in the past), but I will wait to see if it works for others and then possibly call CS again or corporate.

Transaction 2:
Domino Light brown sugar 2lb. $2.35 - $.50 = $1.35
Cottonelle Moist Wipes $2.59 - $.75 cat (DND9) - $.50 ZVR = $1.34
3 Pampers Wipes $3.29 - $.50 - $.50 ZVR = $1.79 (ZVR only comes off once, other two were $2.29)
2 Dole Pineapple $1.15 - $.50/2 = $.65 each
Solo Plates BOGO $1.99 - $.75 = $.24
Carpet Fresh $1.69 - $1 = $.69
HT Kidney Beans (needed for recipe) = $.77
In Style magazine $3.99 - $2 coupons.com - $2 S* = FREE after SavingStar!
Earthbound Farms Organic Spring mix salad $3 - $1 in-store special (found this on the spring mix only and is stackable. See if your store has it!) - $.75 = $.50
Minute Steamers brown rice $1.25 - $.50 = $.25
HT Greek yogurt $1 (I had a $.75/3 cat, but turns out it was expired!  I got this anyway because I thought I should pay for something... :) )
-$20 credit from prescription
+ 5% sales tax $1.06
+2.5% sales tax $.27
Grand total: $2.41


Totals for Harris Teeter:
Total before coupons: $87.10
Total spent after coupons: $5.64

Then I went to Farm Fresh and got a lot of produce, but these are the things I used coupons on (not all things were on sale, some things we just needed!).  It's nice to take advantage of Farm Fresh doubling up to $1 on Wednesdays. :)

Glade Electric Warmer (I have had the scents forever because I got them for really cheap with coupons but I never had the warmer!) $3.69 - $1 = $1.69
Gerber 2nd Foods $1.12 - $1/4 = $2.48/4, or $.62 each
Pull-ups moist wipes $4.79 - $1 = $2.79
Orajel training toothpaste $3.99 - $1 = $1.99
Oral B toothbrush $3 - $.75 = $1.50

So no great deals... I didn't have the Activia coupon or I would have definitely gotten that.  Overrall, though, I saved $9.50 with coupons.  Not the biggest number but I have been scouting prices for these things (training toothpaste) and I know that I got the best price.  Plus, it's things we would have bought anyway that we needed that I had coupons for.

Happy shopping! :)

HT Match-Ups 2/1-2/7
