Today's Couponing Adventure

I had my list ready and went to CVS and Walgreens. As far I have observed, CVS cashiers are much friendlier and helpful compared to Walgreens. Told them to bear with me since I just started couponing - my 2nd week,  and and don't really know much what to do. They guide me through and was of great assistance!


 I've read in a blog somewhere that  Walgreens is not a place when you just started couponing and boy that blogger sure is right! So here's my experience today:

CVS
Transaction #1. Tried to purchase Zarbee's Cough Syrup but they were out, so I asked if I can get a raincheck and I sure did! (thank you couponing bloggers for the raincheck trick!)

Transaction #2. The deal: Get 10$ worth of Nivea products, get 3$ ecb
Bought 4 Nivea lip care @ 2.50$ each which equals to 10.00, then I used my Nivea lip care coupons worth 5.00 plus 5.00 ECB from last weeks transaction. I end up paying just the tax.

Transaction #3. Get 12$ worth of Suave products, get 6$ecb
Bought 2/6$ Suave lotion, 2/4$ hair styling spray, 2/3$ kids shampoo. I used my 6$ raincheck, 3$ ecb from the Nivea products and 4$ for providing my e-mail. I end up paying a few cents for tax.


My skeptical husband was impressed to see me walk out of CVS with these items . I got all my stuff pretty much for free and I made 6$ ecb for next week's purchases. I think I did a pretty good job and I get to say " in your face" to Hubz! He then say, he will drive me around as long as I'm saving like that lol!  :))




Walgreens
Bought 3 Aquafresh toothpastes for 99cents each and a dozen egg for 99cents.  Also their 80 loads Sun laundry detergent was BOGO@5.99 so I went ahead and grab some. I paid about 10$ for all. Not bad.

My household is not picky with the detergent brand. As long as we have Downy fabric softener, my Boyz don't itch so we are good! :)
