Target RAOK: Build a story for five $5/3 Johnson's coupons -- winner foggierbard9

[pennywatcher]

I have five of the coupons for $5/3 selected Johnson's brands to give away to one of our Target readers.

Let's build a story. Just add a sentence or more to continue the story. You can end your entry with a complete sentence, or you can leave your last sentence dangling for the next person to complete.

To keep us from posting on top of each other, you can post "hold" and then you have five minutes to edit your post to continue the story. If there's already a "hold" in the story, you have to wait until that person has filled in their post or a full five minutes (board time) have elapsed before you can post your own hold/entry.

You can enter as many times as you want, but there have to be two other entries between yours.

I'll do a random drawing from all the entries on Sunday (6/29) morning around 8 am Eastern.

If you think the story feels finished, just send me a PM, and I'll pop in and get a new one started.

Here's a start...

I was so excited when I opened my paper Sunday morning and found the much anticipated $5/3 Johnson's coupon. I had so many scenarios in my head. One plan was...

get 2 baby washes. one the cream type one the head to toe. use 2 different mfr. q's for 1.00 each and buy the desatin which also had a 1.00 q. so ...
2 for 6.00
1 for 3.74
---------
9.74
-3.00 mfr q's
------
6.74
-5.00 5/3 q

that all the money I was saving I'd have to pay in postage to mail these to my sister, so I decided to

[athriftylife]

that since my three year old son is wild and crazy and always falling down, maybe I should purchase the Neosporin to Go, the Johnsons toddler bedtime bath and a Johnsons buddies - all with manu coupons of course

3.99 (Neo)
3.00 (Bedtime Bath)
1.04 (Buddies Soap)
-----
8.03
-3.00 (manu coupons)

5.03
-5.00 (Target coupon)

But, then I thought, what if.....

He refuses to take a bath, so I bought....

6 more buddy bars, used 6 of the $1 manufacturer coupons and 2 of the Target 5/3 coupons and used the overage to buy candy to bribe him into taking a bath....

But then realized that I found 3 $1/1 Band-Aid Qs that I forgot to use, so I bought 3 Band-aids (Hello Kitty, of course). Then I found...

[jennspen]

spiderman band-aids which of course he would rather have than Hello Kitty! So I bought 3 packs of those, used the 3 $1/1 coupons plus the $5 Target coupon and debated over what I should spend my overage on. I think I need a "prize" for being such an awesome mom so I used another $5 Target coupon, combining the overage from both and bought the following things for me...

clearance bathing suit bottoms & top. I took it home and tried it on but it didn't fit!! Knowing Target's awful return policy on clearance/seasonal merchandise, I still headed to the store to return it. Once I got there...
