Great Deal at Cash Wise

There is a great deal this week on select Quaker items at Cash Wise.  I ran there this morning and I will probably do this deal a couple more times.  By combining the in-ad coupon and some IP ones you can get the items for less than $1/box!  That's a great stock up price for me on cereal that I will actually eat!!

There a several ways to do this sale.  This morning I bought the items pictured.  I had two coupons for the Quaker oatmeal.  You can find that coupon HERE.  Since I had two of the coupons that brought the above items to just $.78 each!!  That is a great price on cereal!!  If you needed some granola bars you could use the $1/2 granola bar coupon that was in a recent newspaper insert.  If you combined one of those with three of the oatmeal coupons it would cost you just $.38 per item!

CVS - Taking Advantage of Two Weeks Worth of Sales

My Mom & I hit CVS Saturday night so that we could take advantage of last week's and this week's sales.  I wanted to do the Nature's Bounty deal a couple more times.  (Thanks goes to frugalsuz for posting about this!) 

Trans #1
2 Nature's Bounty Men's Your Life Vitamins $9.99 each (BOGO), get $3
2 Nature's Bounty Vitamin D $8.99 each (BOGO), get $3
used (4) $5 Nature Bounty coupons
Clairol Natural Instincts $5.99, get $2 (not pictured)
used FREE coupon (won in giveaway)
Pampers $8.88
used $2 Pampers coupon
used $5/$20 CVS coupon
=$2.59 OOP, received $8 ecbs

Trans #2
3 12 pks. Mt. Dew 3/$10 (not pictured)
2 Tostitos 2/$7
Stacy's pita chips $3, get $10 wyb $20 in qualifying products

2 Reinventing Beauty mags $.99 each
1 caramel $.33 (filler to get to $30)
used $5/$30 Medicare CVS coupon
used $15 ecbs
=$8.25 OOP, received $10 ecbs

I had originally planned on doing three transactions so that I was able to also use a $3/$15 that I had but when the cashier hit the total on the first transaction I was actually at -$4.82!!  That's when I added in the Pampers.  I still didn't do too bad considering that altogether I spent $10.84 OOP and gained $3 in ecbs!!  I'm going to do the Pepsi deal once more and then submit for THIS REBATE after I pick up some beer :)

Another Fab Trip

Have I mentioned there is sickness in my house right now?  Last night Logan (my 4 yr old) was up off and on from 3 AM until I was able to take him into the clinic at 10 AM.  He now has ear infections to go along with everything else.  Hubby also stayed home today since he has decided to become sick too.  I hope I don't get it - I need to remember to pop some Zicam tonight.  This afternoon while everyone was napping I made a trip to Target (to pick up a vaporizer) and stopped in at CVS to pick up some necessities.  Sorry, no picture this time around - I didn't have the energy.  You'll just have to visualize in your pretty little head what I bought :)

Trans #1:
Accu check monitor $14.99, get $10
used $10 Accu check coupon
2 Oust air fresheners $3.99 each, get $3 each
used BOGO Oust coupon
used $5/$20 CVS
used $3 ECBs
=$1.29 OOP, received $16 ECBs!!! 
That's an $11.71 Moneymaker :)

Trans #2:
Cottonelle $12.88, get $4
used $1 Cottonelle coupon
2 Oust air fresheners $3.99 each, get $3 each
used BOGO Oust coupon
CVS Vapor bath $4.69
CVS Electrolyte drink $2.24 (BOGO 50% off)
used $5/$30 CVS Medicare quiz coupon
used $2 off $10 CVS products coupon
used $11 ECBs
=$6.83 OOP, received $10 ECBs

I needed almost everything I bought in transaction two (except the Oust) but by doing the first transaction I was able to really build up my ECBs and use some of them towards the second purchase. 

On another subject I ordered coupons off of eBay for the first time.  I've never bought coupons before over the internet and hopefully it works out because they really were a great deal!  I bought 25 Oust coupons for $3.19 (free shipping) and 20 $1 J&J baby coupons for $2.99.  I won't be able to use all the Oust coupons myself but I'll be sharing them with my Mom, Aunt and maybe have a giveaway for some!

Have you bought coupons from other sources?  Let me know of your experience!

This Is Gonna Be A Long One

Since I've been dealing with two sick little boys all week I HAD to get out of the house tonight!  So where else to go but CVS right?  I did three transactions while I was there.  This week isn't too good when it comes to ECBs deals but they did have some others that I wanted to score on! 

Here is a breakdown of what I bought:

Trans #1:

2 Colgate toothpastes 2/$5, get $2

used $.75 Colgate coupon

used $1 Colgate coupon

Huggies pull-ups $8.88

used $2 Huggies coupon

2 packs 16 qt. storage containers $6.99 (BOGO)ss

used $5/$20 CVS coupon

used $9.99 ECB

=$3.08 OOP, received $2 ECBs

Trans #2:

2 Oust air freshener $3.99 each, get $3

used BOGO Oust coupon

2 Wonka gummies 2/$4, get $1

used (2) $1 Wonka coupons

2 Bioluxe products $9.99 (BOGO)

-look for ones with try me free rebate

2 Sterilite containers $5.99 (BOGO)

used $5/$20 CVS coupon

used $10 ECBs

=$8.35 OOP, received $7 ECBs + $9.99 rebate for Bioluxe

Trans #3:

Huggies $8.88

used $2 Huggies coupon

2 All HE laundry detergent $3.99 each

used (2) $2 All coupons

2 Bioluxe products $9.99 (BOGO)

-look for ones with TMF rebate

used $5/$20 CVS coupon

used $13.97 ECBs

=$2.14 OOP + $9.99 Bioluxe rebate

So as you can see I did use up $33.96 in ECBs and only received $9 back BUT I will be getting another $18.97 back in the form of prepaid Visa cards so I really don't have anything to complain about.  As I said before, CVS had some other deals that I wanted to do including the storage containers (for my stockpile), the Bioluxe rebates and the Huggies.  These transactions are some perfect examples of how you can use up ECBs - you might not earn the same amount back but you still have some to roll for next time.  And look at all the stuff I got!  This is the first trip in quite awhile that I will be able to use everything that I bought in all of my transactions for one day :)

Kohl's Microfiber Pillows for only $6.78!

Here is a great deal that I just stumbled upon.  I just ordered the pillows and was able to snag two of them for only $6.78!!  Kohl's has a TON of items marked down on their website, including Christmas items.  Since hubby & I are in need of some new pillows this deal was too good to pass up!  Kohl's has The Big One Microfiber Pillows marked down to just $4 each.  The deal gets better though!

So all you'll have to pay for is tax.  My total due was $6.78 for TWO pillows!

To sweeten the deal even more shop through Ebates!  If you are new to Ebates you'll receive $5 just for signing up in addition to the 2% cash back you'll earn for shopping at Kohl's through their site.
