It's all about the bottom line! What is your best price?

I pay $10 for a bottle of my dandruff shampoo.... if anyone else knows a way to get Nizoral for cheaper, let me know. I pretty much use my GCs from my WG rebates for it :(

Not for me, if I needed it. Sugar is about 2.69/ 5 lb at Walmart.

I have gotten REALLY cheap sugar at Food Lion (.19 for 2 lb bags), but that was only when they had the $1 off any FL brand sugar coupons out.

Not positive if this is the right forum, but . . .

I don't have a price book yet and with my sprained ankle, looks like that might get put on hold.

I did look at the price for p towels at Walg & CVS while there. Seems like the lowest I saw was .86 per towel (3 roll pack - 85 per roll for total of $2.19 = 255 towels for $2.19)

Obviously, since I'm new, I don't have a huge number of coupons, etc. I do have one Bounty .25 coupon.

I'm not in dire need of p towels, but . . .
The CVS P&G sale has Bounty Basic 8 pk for $5. There are 60 per roll, so a total of 480 sheets. With the $10 ECB w/ $20 purchase, that makes the cost $2.50 per pack / 480 sheets = .52 cents per sheet.

I'm thinking this is a really good price, but not positive. Does anyone have what would be a good price per sheet on sale? (I know that many of you probably get them free, but I'm not there yet and don't think I ever will be. I just don't want to buy 16 to 32 rolls unless I think it is a really good price.

Someone gave me a ballpark price per load for laundry detergent, but I'm open to more of those as well.

Also ballpark price on dryer sheets.

Thanks!!

What would you consider a great sale/clearance price for name brand laundry detergent when going by the ounce? Less than 4-5 cents or better?

I'm looking at 100oz. - 200oz. containers...thanks!!!

for me, we don't double in my area, so clearance price for cleaning products any kind would have to be at least 50%...and i would need a coupon to go w/it also, to justify stockpiling it in my house....if i already have some of it
if i don't have any of it...30%-50% clearance for detergent is good for me on name brand

First, laundry detergents vary a lot thise days re: amount used per load. It is better to do comparisons based on # of loads. Luckily the number of loads is indicated on the containers.

I've started my price book!! Least expensive I have found so far was SunBurst 2x at WalMart. $1.97 for 40 loads, so just under 5 cents per load.

You asked about name brands - CVS has Tide on sale this week - up to 48 loads for $8. With $10 ECB with purchase of $20 P&G, that is effectively $4 for 48 loads = 8 1/3 cents per load. If you have a $4 off $20 purchase thing, then that would be a further 20% savings bringing it to 6.7 cents per load. It would be even better if you had coupons. I'm still new, so not many good coupons.

So, short answer for me - a great price would be 4 cents per load right now. For seasoned shoppers, I'm sure it is less.
