In the mean time I'm saving on health and beauty items which we won't have to pay for on upcoming shopping trips for quite awhile. Wait til you see how I did this week!!
You are looking at 3 packs of heating patches (for the hubby), 5 packs of razors, 5 packs of girlie liners and a 3 bar pack of soap which retail for $60.50. Guess how much I paid. Go on...guess!N-O-T-H-I-N-G!!
I got them all FREE!
For $60.50 worth of stuff...I paid a measley .70 cents in sales tax! :) Woohoo!

that's insane! I am jealous. those are THE best razors- the only ones I use but I definitely pay wayyy more than .70 for them!
I am jealous as well! I need to pay more attention to coupon methinks!
whatever! I bet you paid a large sum of money buying other stuff you didnt need. something like buy 50 rolls of toilet paper and get a pack of gum free!
yeah?
Nope Yrautca. I SWEAR!! That was my decision when I started on this couponing adventure. I would not buy a bunch of shit that I didn't need b/c it defeats the purpose of trying to save money.
Now....if I can get a bunch of shit I don't need for FREE...then yes, I do get it b/c I pass those on to family and friends that do have uses for them.
I'm a dogooder and it's eating you up isn't it??! :)
Let me break it down for you Mr. Nonbeliever.
The BIC razors retail for $6 each at Publix. Publix was having a B1G1 free sale last week and I had several $3 off coupons. Since I was buying 2 packs (even though store was only charging for one) I was able to use 2 of my coupons and the money came off the one I was being charged for. $3 off coupon x 2 = FREE
Noxema razors (normally $4.99) were on sale for $2. I had a $2 off coupon = FREE
The heating patches are normally $8.99 at Rite Aid but they had them on sale for $5. I also had coupons for $5 off those heating pads from this Sunday’s paper. So apply the $5 coupon to the $5 sale price = FREE
Soap (normally $2.50) was on sale for $.99. I had a $1.00 off coupon = FREE
Girlie liners (normally $1.10 each) on sale for $.99, I had several $1.00 off coupons = FREE
See…you just have to watch the sales ads and clip coupons!
Ummm . . . wow.
OMG!!! You actually showed me the math? Time for intervention. I agree with berly, wow!
