See Jenny Shop! Week of 1/20/13

Well, this week wasn’t TOO exciting at the drugstores, but I kept my resolve to get out there and find what I could to keep my deals going. Happily, Kroger is having a big mega-event and had a lot of items I needed on sale so THAT was fun at least! Here’s what I got this week!

CVS:

This week CVS had a deal on Colgate-Palmolive products – buy $12, get back 6 extra care bucks. Some of the items were $2.99 instead of $3, but I was pretty sure CVS wouldn’t make me spend those extra 2 pennies to get the ECBs and I was correct! Here’s how it worked out:

Colgate Optic White toothpaste $2.99

Colgate Optic White rinse $3.00

SpeedStick deodorant $2.99

SoftSoap body wash $3.00

total = $11.98

coupons:

-$1 SpeedStick deodorant coupon from SmartSource insert

-$.75 SoftSoap coupon from SmartSource insert

-$1 Colgate Optic White rinse from SmartSource insert

-$.75 Colgate Optic White toothpaste from SmartSource insert

= $8.48 and I got back 6 ECBs plus I used my ibotta coupon app and got $1.25 for Colgate Optic White rinse and $1.25  for the Colgate Optic White toothpaste deposited in my PayPal account. So, that’s a grand total of a profit of 2 cents before tax. 🙂 YAY!

Next up, I hit the Kroger Mega-Event. This is a buy 10 items, get $5 off promotion. I bought 20 items total but my best deal was on Capri Sun Roaring Waters, which my kids take in their lunches to school.

thirsty?

Capri Suns were $2.50, but you got an additional 50 cents off each for buying 10 sale items total. I had two coupons for buy 3, get one free for Capri Sun. I also had an ibotta app coupon for $1.00 off Capri Sun Roaring Waters. Sooo I bought 8, at $2.50 each. Kroger knocked the price down to $2 each since I bought 10 total items.  Here’s how it worked out.

8 Capri Sun at $2 each = $16

-$5.00 from my two free (took off the original price of $2.50)

-$1.00 from my ibotta coupon

=$10 for 8 Capri Sun.

Wee-hoo! I was pretty pleased with that price!

Other items I got a good price on w/ the Mega-Event and coupons include Blue Diamond Almond milk and BirdsEye steamfresh veggies.

The Mega-Event should be running next week, too, so there’s still time to save!

And you gotta get the ibotta app! I am saving SO much with it. $5 from last night’s trip alone! If you sign up through my link here, I’ll get a dollar and you’ll get my everlasting gratitude.

Happy shopping! What did YOU get this week?

  1. I am totally jealous of your Roarin’ Waters stash! We go through that at our house too!
    I am really liking ibotta! Last week I got $1 back on Capri Sun, plus 75 each for buying 12 pack cans of Diet Coke and Coke Zero. The sweet deal on that was that I had Coke Reward coupons to get the 12 packs for free – plus I used it at CVS on one of those deals to spend $30 on certain items and get CVS cash back. I bought the sodas along with diapers and toilet paper to do that.
