Crazy Coupon Lady me went out in a snowstorm Sunday evening for newspapers(coupon inserts).
Here's what I also bought since I was there anyway.lol

2 x Gillette Clinical Deo' on sale $7.99=$15.98
2 x Tugaboo Diaper packs w/20% wellness discount=$1.58

Coupons Used

$25.55-$25.50=$.05 OOP put on Rite-Aid gift card, making ZERO out of pocket.
I used $0 +Ups and received $7 +Ups(2 x $3 Gillette, $1 wyb 2 Pantene).

Analysis....
Needed the newspaper for coupons, natch!
Color treated hair 'Poo for me cost .25¢ a bottle after Qs(but before the $3+Ups WYB 2).
The Clinical Deo' was on sale for $7.99, after stacked Qs($3 ManuQ+$3 Flu BookletQ)and $3+Ups was a $1.01 moneymaker.
The diapers were a filler to get over $25 and will be donated to my local food bank.  I bundle these 2 packs up into 20 diapers per bag and take them over.  Personal hygiene and paper goods are very welcomed at our food bank.

And here are the 3 transactions I did on Tuesday....

1 x Gillette Clinical Deo' on sale=$7.99

I used $10+Up Rewards and put the .56¢ on my free Rite-Aid gift card.
I received $16 in +Ups($3 Gillette, 4 x $2 school supplies wyb2, $5 Darice wyb2), making this a $6 moneymaker.

Analysis....
More 'Poo that after sale and Qs(stack BOGO in recent P&G with $1/1 Q in last P&G)costs you $.75 each bottle.
Clinical Deo', ditto moneymaker, same as last trip.  The foamie crafts are $1.83 w/20% wellness discount and give a $5 +Up wyb 2, so these were a $1.34 moneymaker after +Ups.  If you have the Dec. AdPerks/VV Q for the $5/2 Foamies you could explore other combinations with higher priced craft items.
These Harvard Square school supplies are giving a $2 +Ups wyb 2.  All but the pencil top erasers were $.99(or $.79 after 20% wellness discount), so were a $.42 moneymaker with the +Up for each pair.  The pencil tops were $1.49(or $1.19 ea. w/20% wellness discount)so every 2 packages cost me $.38 after +Up.

Analysis....
The regular strength Gillette Deo' is on sale for $4 and there is a $3 +Ups wyb 2.
Stack the BOGO Gillette Deo Q(current P&G insert)with the $2/1 Gillette Deo Q(last P&G insert)and your 2 Deos cost $2 total.  Then you get a $3 +Up which makes the buy a $1 moneymaker.

**The Olay Body Wash and Olay Lotion is BOGO50% off this week.  Buy one of each, stack the $2/1 Body Wash or Lotion Q(current P&G insert)with the BOGO Olay Lotion/Body Wash Q(last P&G insert) AND the $2/1 Olay Body Wash Flu Booklet Q for a great deal.  It's an even BETTER deal if the cashier rings up the full priced item of the pair as your FREE BOGO Q item.lol


More Harvard Square pencils and erasers=more small moneymakers.


Andes peppermint bark mints...part of the Christmas candy clearance.
They were shouting at me as I passed by the shelf.  I had to quiet them up by throwing them into the cart.  Candy enjoys being told what to do....unlike teenagers.

Hand Renewal type of Dawn is part of the .97¢ a bottle sale this week around here.  I used a $1/2 Q(the last P&G insert)making my 2 bottles $.47 each.
I needed the marker and it was a good price w/the 20% wellness discount.

Since I've accumulated quite a supply of toys/craft items in the past month at Rite-Aid, I've decided to make a point in 2011 to 'buy' more of this kind of thing.  I don't have children of the age to give these items to but I am going to gather them with an eye toward making a large donation to a local Toy Drive next Holiday Season.  I won't go out of my way to purchase toys/crafts, but if I can pick some things up for free or close to it, I'll include them in my shops.

  1. wow, I was thinking that a lot of school supplies. Maybe give them to a charity that is packing backpacks in August. Great shopping as usual. I will have to see if I have any of those coupons to try it myself.

  2. Been going back and forth all day with Should I try to hit Gold (need 164 more) or should I just use up the freebie coupons I have with one last $5/$25 to get some stuff we want/need and pretty much be done? I'll probably go with the latter because honestly I just don't know if I'm going to make enough use of the 20% (vs. the 10% I already have and will have next year) to warrant spending actual OOP this week :)

    I love reading your transactions (as always)!!

  3. When I was at our RA last night, no school supplies marked down at all and no empty pegs or slots - I'm guessing my tiny RA doesn't even carry this kind. Oh well, would've been nice :)
