Life Has Gotten Busy!

Sorry for not posting for the last 6 months, but life has gotten busy for me lately and I just haven't had the time to post the wonderful deals as I get them. 

Hoping to be more on top of things within the next month and able to post more.

This weeks best deals seem to be at Kmart for me.  :) 

Buy $30 worth of P&G, get a $10 CRT (cash register tape) coupon for future $10 or more P&G purchase......THESE ROLL!!!  :) 

For example, today I bought:

2 8-packs Bounty Basic on sale for $5.49
4 Pantene shampoos at Buy One Get One 50% off
4 Cover Girl eye shadows on clearance for $1.64 each
1 12 pack Smart Sense Cola $2.50
1 meal deal (Oscar Mayer Deli Chicken Strips, Barilla pasta and Ragu sauce)

I used the following coupons:

2 BOGO Pantene
1 $3/2 Pantene
1 $1/2 Bounty (doubled)
4 $1/1 Cover Girl (doubled)
1 Kmart super coupon for FREE pop when you buy $25 worth grocery/health/beauty
1 $10 CRT coupon from previous purchase

My total was only $5 something, and I used my Shop Your Way Reward Points to pay, so I had no OOP (out of pocket)!

Don't forget that you have to use your Shop Your Way Rewards card to get the deals! 


 




 

These little travel kits are sold at Walmart for .97 each. 

There is a coupon out from the 11/6/2011 Smart Source insert that is $1 off any Neosporin OR Johnson & Johnson Red Cross product. 

Use the coupon at Walmart to get this FREE!!  :) 

HOT Maxwell House coffee deal at Meijer's!

Meijer's has Maxwell House coffee on sale for $7.99 each for the large canisters, according to their ad. 
With reports of the coffee ringing up at $7.49 each, I went to test this out! 

Meijer deal is "Buy 2, Get $5 off INSTANTLY.

There is also a catalina deal that when you buy 2, you get a custom store coupon for $3 off your next shopping trip.  :) 

Here is how it works:

Buy 2 Maxwell House coffees (33 oz and up!)
They ring up at $7.49 each ($14.98)
You then get $5 off INSTANTLY ($9.98 for 2 now)

If you have $1/1 coupons (found in booklets at Kmart), $7.98 for 2 (2 $1/1 coupons used).

You pay $7.98 for 2, and then you'll get a $3 OYNO catalina coupon!  :) 

VG's Buy 10, Get $5 Off Deal

VG's Food Store is a local Spartan branch grocery that has quite a few locations throughout Michigan. 

This week, they have a special deal that includes many items and when you buy 10 items, you get $5 off instantly at the register. 

Our VG's store doubles 3 like coupons up to $1, so a $1 coupon is worth $2 off.

You have to have your YES Rewards card as well (free, just ask for one when you are there!).

I bought 6 of the Nabisco cookie bags (on sale for $1.49) ea and 4 Kraft chunk cheese (on sale for $1.99 ea). 
6 x $1.49 = $8.94
4 x $1.99 = $7.96

Total so far with sale prices is $16.90.
Minus the $5 deal special, you are now down to $11.90.

I had 2 coupons, each for $1/2 Kraft cheese, each doubles to $2 off (-$6.00)
I had 3 coupons, each for $1/2 Nabisco cookies or crackers, each doubles to $2 off (-$4.00)

Total of $11.90, minus $10 in coupon savings, I paid just $1.90 for all 10 items!!  :) 

Breathe Right at Walmart

Walmart has the Breathe Right 2-pack for $0.97.  There is a $1.50 coupon out that is off a 12 count OR smaller pack making this a fantastic deal at Walmart!

I picked up 4 packs, used 4 of the $1.50 coupons and applied the overage ($2.12) to my jar of Hellmann's ($3.48) making it a very cheap jar of mayonnaise!

Saving at Kohl's

I finally received my $10 off $10 or more purchase coupon and went shopping at Kohl's today! 

Little Tikes toys were 1/2 off, so after sale price and my coupon, I was able to get this big dump truck for my grandson for $2.49 plus tax. 

Go to Kohl's online, at the bottom of their site, sign up for their email alerts.  You will get a $5/$5 coupon!  Pair it up with their shopping pass and you can get some great deals!

Kmart Double $2 Coupons Feb. 27-March 2!

For the ones that have Kmart stores close by, check to see if they are participating in the super double $2 coupons this week.

Our store is!
It is a limit of 5 coupons they will double, and you must spend at least $25 in HBA/groceries....not hard to do with the prices of things.
Also have to have or sign up for the Kmart Rewards card...free.

They also have a promotion that if you spend $35 or more in P&G items, you get a $10 coupon off your next shopping trip.

The picture is what I got yesterday (with Rico inspecting it all!)!

Regular price with tax on all of this was $128.80.
Total spent: $5.11
Received at $10 coupon to use next week at Kmart on any purchase $10 or more!

The Loreal Kids shampoo was on price drop for .75 each (normally $2.99 each) and I had coupons for .75 off 1, making them free.

The Loreal Styling products was on price drop for $1.15 each (normally $4.79 each) and I had coupons for $1.00 off 1, making them just .15 each

The Tampax Pearl was $4.69 and I used $2/1 coupons, which doubled making them .69 each.

The Schick Quatro razor was on sale for $5 and I used a $2 coupon which doubled to $4 off, making this just $1.

I added the Gain fabric softner sheets in to get my P&G dollar amount up over $35 to earn the $10 coupon. I had $3 off one coupons for these (price was $4.69).

I had a $5 bonus coupon from a few weeks ago to use at Kmart on any order over $5, and since it was going to expire on the 6th, I decided to use it now.

I also had acumulated points on my Kmart Rewards card that was equal to $3.69 that I opted to use on this order as well, because the points expire at the end of the month and I didn't want to lose out on them.

How did you all do?
