Shopping this week

It's been a pretty good week for shopping. It would be a great week, had I not done something I PROMISED myself I would never do again....I threw away coupons before they expired! You'd think I would know better by now. I was clipping my new coupons on the 27th and to make room for all of them, I threw away all my coupons expiring on the 30th! So far I have missed out on free shampoo and toothbrushes. No, I don't NEED either of those things, but free is free.

So anyways,

Here is a recap of what I have done so far this week



CVS on Monday


I went there for the free oral b toothbrushes this week. I went there first thing, hoping to grab a couple of them before they were all gone. But you know what? My CVS didn't have the toothbrushes! Neither did the other CVS in my city! Bummer! I had my entire trip planned around the ECB I was going to get back and I was going to get a ton of stuff at CVS this week.
So I just grabbed the Olay face wash, some toilet paper and a free dish soap

Trans #1
$6.50 total
Used $6.30 Ebates check I got last week
$0.20 OFP
with $5 ECB back

Trans #2
$5.26 total
-$5 ECB
= $0.26 OFP

Not too bad for 46 cents

Then I had to run to Walmart for a few things and I thought, hey, what if Walmart would price match the toothbrushes?! And you know what? They did! Cool!



So I got two Oral B vitality toothbrushes (normally $28.00ea at Walmart) for FREE!
Spent $0
Saved $56.00

Then I went back to CVS yesterday for an AWESOME deal on the new Iron Man 2 movie.



So I know this looks a little funny, but hear me out.

CVS has a deal this week where if you buy $25 in select P&G products, you will receive a $15.00 credit towards the Iron Man movie. Making it $5 bucks. So when you are doing this kind of deal you have to go for the cheapest item on the list and see of there are any coupons for it. Which in this case, was the tampons. They were $2.99ea and I had a $2.00 manu coupon so $0.99ea is a great deal

My total after coupons and $4/20 CVS coupon was $10.72
Used $10 P&G rebate I received last week
Spent $0.72 OFP!!
Saved $55.00!

So what do you think? Not too bad for a movie and 9 boxes of you know whats it's.
Jake was SUPER excited that we got the new Iron Man movie. In fact, he somehow talked me into letting him watch it this morning. See....





Doesn't he look so cute in his new jammies?

Well that's all for now!
