And now for my postpartum CVS mojo…

Tonight I had to go to CVS to get my Motrin prescription refilled.  Because really, I am off the narcotics but I still need something to take the edge off! I just had a giant hole cut in my belly 11 days ago.  And, I’m a total wimp. SO. While I was there I of course needed to pick up some necessities.  Here’s what I got:

Tide HE free & gentle $5.97

Charmin Ultra Strong $4.99 (this I had promised to my brother BUT we are almost out of TP and I am not dragging three kids out of the house to get more so….sorry Andy.  I will hit you next time!  You ungrateful hairy man.)

Bounty $6.99

Tone body wash$3.88 (finally! a women’s body was on sale! THANK YOU. My husband has 4 million and I had to BUY ONE two weeks ago. )

Prescription $3.40

total = $25.23

coupons:

-$1 Charmin (from coupons inside package of Duracell I bought at Rite Aid)

-$1 Tide from this Sunday’s P&G insert

-$1 Tone printable

-25 cents Bounty from this week’s P&G insert

-$20 ECBs I had from earlier transactions

total =$1.98 + tax = $3.51 and I got back 6 ECBs, 3 for the Tone, and 1 each for the Tide, Charmin, and Bounty.  The pharmacy tech was muy impressed. 🙂

That’s all I am planning to get this week…I’m still mostly staying at home and resting.  What did YOU get!?

My Postpartum Rite Aid Mojo is Rockin’!

I took a very, very short foray out of the house today to go to Rite Aid and the library.  Because you see, I needed to get some sweet deals and return some books!  My mom stayed with the kids so I could run out.  I was in a hurry because after all, I have a wee baby who likes to nurse every 2.2 seconds, but I was still able to score some great deals because I had my transactions all planned out and Rite Aid had everything I wanted!  Here’s what I got:

First transaction:
2 Fusion ProGlide gift packs $9.89 each = $19.78

1 Vick’s Sinex $5

total = $24.78

coupons:

-$8 two $4 off Fusion ProGlide from yesterday’s P&G insert

-$4 Sinex from yesterday’s P&G

-$4 +UP rewards

=8.78 + $1.45 tax = $10.23

I got back 12 +UP Rewards, 5 for each razor and 2 for the Sinex!    After I was done paying, the cashier gave me a “NIIICE”.  I was feeling pretty good, ha ha!  I then ripped those off my receipt and bought the two packs of Duracell batteries!  Gotta have those C and D batteries for the baby swing and the bouncy seat!

2 Duracell batteries $8.88 = $17.76

coupons: -$2 two $1 off Duracell coupons from previous packages of Duracell I bought at Rite Aid 🙂

-$12 +UP Rewards from 1st transaction

=$3.76  +$1.24 tax = $5.00 even!

I got back $5 +UP Rewards for buying $15 worth of Duracell. 🙂

So, I came out even Steven!

Woohoo!!

What did YOU get this week?

Super-awesome deal on Walgreens diapers!

Even though Walgreens is my least favorite of the drugstores for deals, I saw this deal posted at My Frugal Adventures and I had to check it out! It worked for me!

Walgreens diapers and training pants are on sale buy one, get one free for $8.99. This week they also have a promotion where you get $5 “jingle cash” (which are actually register rewards) for every $25 you spend. Well, the “free” diapers are counting toward your total for jingle cash. So I bought 6 packs of diapers/training pants, and paid $26.97 + tax and got back TEN DOLLARS jingle cash! That brings those diapers down to $2.82 a pack after jingle cash! Woot! The only catch is that you can’t spend the jingle cash until next week, starting 12/12. But I am sure I can find something to spend it on then. If you are in need of diapers or pull-ups, this is a great stock-up deal!

Happy Shopping!
