Shopping - 9/14

Walgreens!




I don't feel like listing the details, but the overall outcome of this trip is...
Total before gift card = 62.03
Gift card from last month's easysaver = (23.94)
Total OOP = 38.09


I will be getting a gift card from Walgreens for $44.59! I bought most of the free after rebate items, and used coupons for a few, so I made a few bucks. :-)


CVS!



Didn't get much at CVS, but paper towels were on my must get list this week! I was down to one roll and we go through a roll every few days.
Details:

Wyler singles (like crystal light) sale = .49
Scott towels sale = 5.29
2 Purex sale = 5.98
Excedrin sale = 3.99


Total before coupons and ECBs = 15.90
Coupons (only had one for Purex
b/c I sent the excedrin one I had
in the coupon train I'm in! =( ) (1.00)

ECBs (13.47)
Total OOP 1.43

ECBs earned for excedrin and Purex 5.99

Lost some ECBs, but I needed those paper towels...and the Purex will come in handy also!

I passed!

I passed one part of the CPA exam! I'm studying for auditing now and it's not going as well as regulation did. It seems like there will be a lot more memorization and I'm not good at that!! But I'm really excited that I made an 83 on the test, so I just had to share with my 2 blog readers!

Steals and Deals!

Today was a greeaaat day! I've been so busy studying for the CPA exam, so I haven't really had time to figure out deals and such for CVS and other stores. Last night, before I went to bed, I looked at the ads and my coupons and figured some deals out. And then I also had a nice surprise at Winn-Dixie. I'm separating them into several posts...so see below.

1st up - Walgreens

After rebates, I got all this for $6.76!

Here's a short breakdown:

Total before coupons and rebates - 35.33
Less coupons - (6.90)
Less rebates - (21.76)
Total = 6.76!

I'm excited about it. Plus, I'm going to get the rebates on a giftcard, so they add 10% back...so I'll really be getting a rebate of $23.94.

Winn Dixie

These 3 shampoo/conditioners = approximately $3
Small breakdown-
Herbal Essences - 2/$5 - $2 coupon = $3
Pert Plus - 3.99? - full rebate = $0

Also, a catalina printed out for $10 off my next purchase of $50. I will definitely be using this..hope the sales are good next week!!

Last, but certainly NOT least: CVS!!

OOP = $2.21 (The other stores have rebates, so you pay up front...but I heart CVS the most, because you don't have to pay actual cash up front, you can use the ECBs right away!)

Since I love CVS, I'm going to show a detail of the items...I needed the cortisone for my leg, so that wasn't a deal or anything, but I still paid less OOP that the stuff actually costs..haha.

Ban deodorant = 1.99
Alavert 15ct. = 5.99
CVS lipbalm = .99
Lamasilk = 9.99
Lamasil = 7.99
Cortisone cream = 3.99



Beginning Total w/tax = 31.99
Coupons used = (12.99)
ECBs used = (16.79)
Total OOP = 2.21

ECBs earned = $13.00

I also got CRTs for $2.50 off Nuprin (what is that?) and $1 off biore. Cool! I never get CRTs!
