Journaling to keep track of my new experience with coupons.
My First Overage!

So, it may not be a huge amount but I was pretty tickled.
Last week when I went to Rite Aid I noticed that they had sample Old Spice body wash in sample sizes on clearance for 50% off, reg. $1.39. I went home and dug through my coupons and found 4 $1 off any Old Spice body wash. So I got 4 of them for $2.78 and used 4 $1 off coupons for an overage of $1.22!
WOOHOO! I was so tickled I jumped up and down a couple of times. Thankfully it wasn't busy and the cashier thought it was great too. LOL
I had several other things on my list and was only a little annoyed that several items were out of stock. Someone must've cleaned them out in the last day since the sale just started yesterday. Sheesh. I asked and they should have items in by Thursday when I go again.
I did get the most amazing smelling conditioner - the Organix Vanilla. OMG! The smell is heavenly. I wish they'd had the shampoo though. I'd really be tempted to buy it too! I'll have to keep my eye open for coupons.
I also got the Herbal Essence Shampoo free after SCR.
I paid $13.05 and will get $8.48 back for a total OOP of $4.57 and items valued at around $20. So that's a 75% savings right?
