Only three left at one store. What other items & q's are matching up for freebies/MM for this one?

There are travel first aid kits that are $1.47. I don't know if the $5/3 excludes trials but the blinkies don't. The insert coupons do. I've been on vacation so I haven't gone publix coupon hunting in awhile.

Ya know, I have never been able to find those travel kits! I'd love to have a few, too. I have several different bags depending on where I'm taking the kids out at the time and they would be handy.


Something I saw tonight while loading up on more first aid supplies..

There are Carefree packs for only 1.39. I *know* I've gotten a few 1/1 any carefree product Q's from magazines. I'm thinking Parents and such. (Hopefully I can find 'em!) Combine three of those with the "Save $3 with combined purchase of any Stayfree, Carefree, Monistat, K-Y or E-P-T Products" and you've got another MM!

There's also a $.50/1 printable for carefree- if you live in LOD, a pretty good deal.

Some of my carefree coupons came out with the same insert as the bogo stayfree but it was $1/2. Some other ones specifiy a size so I'm going with the printables. I swear we get more .55 and $1/2 here because we get doubles. My mil is in the LOND and gets more $1/1.

The trial jj kits are on an end cap with a few other trial things in one publix, can't find them in another. They are in the trial section at target, walmart and cvs too. I have so many it's crazy . I love the look on the cashier's face at target when they scan that coupon and it takes off $3 for a $2 purchase.

The trials are excluded. There is tape, gauze that stuff for $1.79 and $1.99. There is a small box of neosporin for $3.89 that comes with a free travel case and 3 band-aids. If you need neosporin anyway, it's the cheapest one and you can use $1/1 with it.

I got cortain, neosporin and lots of gauze and tape. Needed it anyway :).

If cvs has taught me anything, Trial and TRAVEL aren't the same though. I've been sticking with 1.79-1.99 stuff since it's all I can find, but are the kits technically "trial"? I've never looked at 'em... (since I can't find the darn things!!)

The package doesn't say trial at all so you know it may work depending on cashier interpretation. Target considers them a trial and when there was a coupon at one point out that said excludes trials they said you couldn't use it.

It says "on the go" and mentions travel but it honestly just says "first aid to go" and contains 12 items.

Folks, in order to clear this up, I called J&J through the contact us on the official J & J Red Cross First Aid website. I spoke with a very nice, young lady named Melinda. She said that J&J does not consider the First Aid To Go kits to be trial size.
Now on the store level, the usage of coupons is subject to interpretation by store personnel. If the product is located in a trial/travel section and they deem it a trial size, they can refuse the coupon. Let's call this a YMMV .

Does anyone know the price on the Nivea BW for Women? It looks like you could use the 1.00/1 or 3.00/2 mf q with the Publix 2.00/1 for a good deal, maybe.

Same with the 8ct bandaids in the TRAVEL section. Travel and Trial are totally different according to the manufacturer's. I was told that there are no TRIAL bandaid products.
