Since I started couponing, my friends always ask me how I complete my shopping trips.
Here's an example from CVS tonight.
In this shopping trip, I spent $3.14 out of pocket in two transactions, used $8 reward bucks from a previous week and $5 from the first transaction, and was left with $5 reward bucks for a future transaction.
Transaction #1
- 4 Bottles of Honest Tea (12/$10) + .05 bottle deposit each in California
- Gardettos Original 5.5oz (2/$3)
- Used .50 cents off coupon found here (Expires 5/1/11)
- Godiva Easter Truffles 4.2oz (50% Easter Clearance $2.49)
- Used .50 cents coupon found in SS 4/17/11
- Used $1.00 Godiva Gem CVS store coupon from the coupon machine
- Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shower/Body Wash ($5.99)
- I had previously bought 2 bottles of these from a transaction earlier this week using the B1G1F found in SS 3/27/11 w/max value $5.99.
- Since I didn't have a second one of these coupons, I used a $2.00 off coupon found here (must sign up for an account).
Used $5.00 CVS bucks from a previous week.
Subtotal: .54 cents
CA 10% tax: .38
Total: .92 cents
Got $5.00 from the Clean & Clear deal (Spend $15 (before coupons), get CVS RB $5)
Note: Since I used two B1G1F worth $1.99 each and my tea was $3.34 in total before the coupons made them free, I had .64 cents on overage to use towards my purchase.
Transaction #2
- Oral B 3D White Toothbrush ($3.50)
- Used $.75 cents coupon from P&G mailer received 04/2011
- Crest 3D White Rinse 946ml ($8.29)
- Used $2.00 off P&G coupon from P&G 4/2011
Used $5 RB from previous transaction and $3 RB from previous week.
Subtotal: $1.04
CA 10% tax: $1.18
Total: $2.22
Received $5 RB back for a future purchase.
Has anyone used this rinse or toothbrush? I am curious if it's any good given its hefty price!
