GDA: Dove thru 1/29

[susan1430]

There was a Dove deal advertised in the 1/2 ad circular which is good (along with the sale prices) through 1/29:

Dove Deal: Save $5 OYNO WYB $15 or more of Dove Brand items shown here in one transaction. Valid 1/02/09 - 1/29/09.
Dove Hair Care Products 2.99 look for $2 coupon in most Sunday papers
Dove Bar Soap 6bar 5.99
Dove Body Wash 6.99
Dove Anti-perspirant Deodorant 2/5
Dove Ultimate Clear 2/7
Dove Clinical 5.99
Dove Lotion 4.99
Dove Face Care Products 20% off

The regular price for the shampoo and conditioner at my store is 4.89, so buying 4 bottles got me over the $15 required purchase. Very good deal when combined with the 1.50/1 coupons from 1/18 (?):

Buy 4 Dove Shampoo or Conditioner
Regular price: 4 x 4.89 = 19.56
Sale price: 4 x 2.99 = 11.96 + tax
Less 4 x 1.50/1 qs = 5.96 + tax oop and get back a $5 OYNO

With tax, the net cost for each set of four I bought was about $1.60.

I did three back to back transactions (used the $5 oyno from the first transaction on the second, and so on) with the following products successfully:
Go Fresh - Cool Moisture (green bottle) ... both shampoo and conditioner
Go Fresh - Energize (yellow bottle) ... both shampoo and conditioner

I wasn't interested in any of the other products, but I think the 6 packs of bar soap work out to about $2.50 each (buy 2 to get over the $15 mark), and the deodorant might also be worthwhile (not sure of the regular price on those, though).

I'm confused. Are you saying that you reached the $15 with regular prices but the shampoo is ringing up at sale price? (did that make sense?)

Yes. I might not have said it very clearly, but both the oyno deal and the sale prices were advertised at the beginning of the month and are good through 1/29. HTH!

Sometimes when there is a special offer when you buy $xx.xx worth of products the register figures the $xx.xx amount based on what the regular price of the product is. Because the product is on sale for a lower price you spend less money to reach the before sale price the offer is based on. For example if the offer is buy $2.00 worth of the item that at regular price is $2.00 but it is on sale for $1.00 you get credit for what it would have cost ($2.00), but only pay the $1.00. And when you add coupons on top of these deals you make out even better.

Not sure if I clarified this at all, but I tried .
