Super Savings on Personal Care, Baby Goods, etc.

I don't like posting too much about coupons on our family site, but over here's a little write up if you're interested in a really sweet deal on personal care items...

All done for this promotion...hope some of you got it! 

Fun Good Deals!

If you enjoy saving with coupons, here's a little post for you...
If not, come back and visit us soon and ignore this post:)...

Total Cost: Free! 

Tax and stamps roughly included (in my head). Time and gas not included as I needed to go to town, and this is part of who I am as a Wife/Homemaker/Mama :).

We were blessed with sweet deals today in our rural shopping area. These are a couple of the few stores in our immediate area. The Renpure deal is specific to Walgreens, the others could be done at many stores...

Walgreens

Renpure Organics Shampoo/Conditioner - on sale BOGO (buy one get one free).
Some bottles have a "try me free" tag on them.
-Buy 1 at $6.99
-2nd bottle  FREE
-Mail in rebate tag from 1st bottle = FREE 
I love these little try me free tags and had never thought to look for them along with BOGO sales...try two free. Thanks Common Sense with Money and Walgreens!

Schick Titanium Quattro Razor (this rebate expires tomorrow!)
-Buy 1 at $9.99
-Send in mail in rebate from Smart Source coupon insert from 2/7/10 newspapers = FREE


Wal-Mart

Oil of Olay Body Wash on Roll-back for $5.47
-Buy 3 = $16.41
-Used 2 $1/1 Olay Body Wash, etc. coupons from 2/14/10 Red Plum newspaper insert
-Used 1 $1/1 Olay Body Wash coupon I received in the mail for signing up for a free magazine
=13.41
-Mail in rebate form found on bottom of Oil of Olay's website to get back $15 when you purchase any 3 of their listed products
-$15
= FREE + a little "overage" (which will cover the cost of my stamps and ~ the cost of tax)

The Oil of Olay rebate is good through 3/12/10 and our Wal-Mart also had smaller body wash bottles for $3.49-$3.99. Those would make you money without any coupons! This is the second Oil of Olay rebate out in the last few months. They have great rebates!!

Hope this helps someone out there:)! Have a great night!


I'd love to hear of deals any friends out there get...:)

More Coupons...*Sheepish Grin*

Check out part two of my Kmart adventure here if you're interested:).

Kmart Double Coupon Savings - Wowzers!!

Total=$25.18
-$19.72 coupons
=$5.46 out of pocket
-$5 rebate (received for buying 4 boxes cereal) to be sent in
=$0.46!!!!
...+a $3 off next purchase over $20 (Catalina coupon) printed with my receipt (which technically would cover the cost of a stamp for the rebate and a gallon+ of gas for the trip).
=Pretty Much Free!!

Let's just say this chica was a little excited!

Here's how I did it:
--Decided to make the most of Kmart's $2 Double Coupon sale this week (through Saturday).
-Visited Money Saving Mom for a list of deals and the rules and also skimmed the links on the bottom of her post.
-Printed off all but two of my coupons online (off of links from MSM site)...thanks, Mom for the other coupon!
-Prayed for wisdom, clarity, good deals, and fun:) (Abraham was a good helper!).
-Picked up Kmart Coupon booklet at front entrance service desk (deodorant coupon was in that one).
-Took list printed off Internet and coupons for what we definitely use and some things we don't with me...this is important, because...
-I had to spend at least $25 for the coupons to be doubled (that's pre-coupon total). So, I ended up buying some lotion I wouldn't usually use, but it helped me get my total up so that everything was basically free!

My goal was to see what I could get for free, especially to stock up on, since we are experimenting with limiting our grocery shopping trip frequency. There really are a lot of other good deals there that we didn't look into!

Too fun! If you have a Kmart nearby that's doubling coupons and try this, please let me know how you do!

Oh, and as if this wasn't exciting enough for our family...we have a badger underneath our deck. Yes, a badger.
