Also shopped at Target last week for Warm Delights on a 10 for 10, used several 55 cents off two coupons, and made sure to pick up the packages that had more coupons attached for future shopping.

2 Wish-Bone Dressing - BOGO $2.77 - 2 $.75/1 = $1.27
2 Nabisco Teddy Grahams Snacks - BOGO $2.99 -$1/2 = $1.99
2 Skippy Peanut Butter - BOGO $2.57 2 $.40/1 = $1.77
2 Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom Cleaner - BOGO $3.45 - $2/2 = $1.45

4 Marie Callenders Entrées - BOGO $3.49 - 4 $1/1 = $2.98

My total came to $17.99 - there was some sales tax added - thats the price after the tax, but anyway...

My very first (and therefore very addicting) shop was at CVS. I happened to get some coupons picked over by 2 other women. I saw $4 off Shick Intuition. I nabbed it as these are so pricey and as luck would have it I needed them. So, I went to the trusty google to find out if there was a sale or anything before I went to the store and paid full price (GASP!!). I happened upon this whole new world . . . 2 hours later I entered CVS, got a CVS shopper card and this is the damage...
8 - Schick Intuition Refills ($10.99 each); CVS B1G1; and $4 off coupon made it $1.50 each
3 - Pull Ups (sale price $10); $2 off coupons, made it $8 each
Total OOP: $35.96 (which is what I normall pay for pull ups alone!!!)
Total ECBs Earned: $10
Total Product Purchased: $117.92

Hi coupon people.

My first 2 brags ever are as follows.

1: Windex antibacterial was on sale at Canadian tire for 2.56 and after taxes it was 2.92. I used a 2 dollar coupon and got the 1st bottle for 92 cents. Then that store gives you Canadian tire money so i got 5 cents. the next 5 bottles i bought were only 87 cents each.
So i have enough windex to last me for a while.

2: Satin care shaving gel for women in any scent was on special for 1.79 and 1.99 i used the 2.00 off save.ca coupon and got it for free. i could only get 1 because i only had one coupon. I wish i had more at the time but hopefully it will come on special again.

That is it so far, my other brag is that i went shopping to maxi and iga last night and every single thing i baught i had a coupon for. So that made me feel great.

My current favorite is my hubby's deodorant - he only uses Mennon Speed Stick, and only 1 particular type at that. I got 3 for free & 8 more for 50 cents each. I debated about getting them for 50 cents each, and in hindsight I probably should've waited until the next sales flier & used the triples from Big Y again to get 3 more for free, but hey... it's still pretty cheap. I always stockpiled it when it was on sale, but 50 cents compared to $2 is still pretty darned good!
