I Love Coupons: the Musical

In the past couple of weeks, I’ve conducted two different coupon classes (one with a part 2 scheduled soon!) and I’ve been invited to do a third. Plus I’ve given one private lesson to my friend Elizabeth. What I’ve discovered through this is I LOVE TEACHING PEOPLE ABOUT COUPONING!! It’s really fun. I look forward to doing it again soon, but I think I may need to work on my presentation a little bit. I’m thinking maybe sequins and a few musical numbers should be involved? Anyone wanna jump in and help me write some coupon love songs? No? Oh well…

Anyhoo, here’s what I scored at CVS this week! I also went to Walgreens but my #@!& Register Rewards didn’t print, reminding me again why I hate Walgreens. So once again, I have resolved to just using Walgreens coupons at CVS, since my CVS takes competitor q’s!!

paid $1.11 got back 14.24 extra care bucks

Just for Men $7.99
2 Brach’s Candy Corn $1.29 each
Excedrin $1.99
Powerade $1.69
2 Funlights $.99 each
Total = $16.23

Coupons:
CVS $3/$15
$2 off Just for Men manu q
$2 off Excedrin manu q
$3 off Excedrin CRT
Total = $6.23
I paid with 5.29 in ECB and paid $1.11 cash and got back 14.24 ECB! 7.99 for Just for Men, 1.69 for Powerade, 1.98 for the funlights, and 2.58 for the candy corn! Plus I sent in for the full rebate for the Just for Men so I’ll get back a $7.99 check! YES!!

paid $1.63 got back 7 extra care bucks

This one I just did to make the $$. 🙂
3 Pert Plus $3.99 each
1 Colgate scented toothbrush $2.99
Frappucino $1.99
Total = 16.95
Coupons:
CVS $3/$15
3 $1 off Pert Plus manu q’s
3 $2.50 off Pert Plus Walgreens Easy Saver q’s (my store takes these)
$2 off Colgate toothbrush CRT
Total = $1.45
I paid $1.63 cash including tax, used zero ECB and got back 7 ECB!! 5 for the Pert and 2 for the toothbrush. HOLLA!!

Finally, my favorite steal of the week!

CVS $2.14, got back 10 extra care bucks

2 Huggies Jumbo packs $9.99 each
2 Huggies wipes $2.79 each
Total = $25.56

Coupons
$5/$20 Walgreens q (thanks for putting this out Friday, Wags!)
$2 off Huggies manu q (home mailer)
$1.50 off Huggies q (home mailer)
$3/2 Huggies wipes q (home mailer)
$3 off Huggies diapers and wipes Walgreens q (sent to me by a friend)
Total – $11.06
Paid with 10 ECB and paid $2.14 cash and got back 10 ECB! Now that, my friends is the way to buy diapers and wipes!!

Hope you all had fun with coupons this week! For more great savings, check out CVS Superstars at the Centsible Sawyer and Super Savings Saturday at Money Saving Mom!

  1. Where did you get the $3 off $15 coupon? My latest one beeped so I couldn’t use it. I really need to check to see if my CVS take Walgreen’s coupons.

  2. touch of grey mens hair color? That is FUNNY! Don’t think you’ll unload that one at the womens shelter.

    I think you should take the touch of grey to walmart and get even MORE MONEY for “returning” it. haha… just kidding. I don’t want the wallyworld police after me.

  5. How do you get the homemailer coupons for the diapers and wipes? I would like to get some of these diaper and wipe deals for Ethan.

    Womens shelter Lori? I’ve know Bobby has been coloring his all along…I just went along with it.

  6. thanks for the private tutoring! I started by wading into the pool… not jumping feet first. Oh well, it was a start. very fun. jenny’s the best. if you can talk her into a private tutorial, I highly recommend it.

  8. I just found your blog through Money Saving Mom. Wow, you had a great haul last week! I never even thought of trying a $5/20 WAG coupon at CVS, though now it seems obvious. LOL.

    Where’d you get your $3/15? I sure wish I had a $/$$ coupon. I love free money. I don’t have any of those though. =o(
