Mary Ann, a friend and fellow couponer, e-mailed me her savings scenerio. This is a perfect example of how couponing just is not just for food. I think she did a GREAT JOB!!
Coupons aren’t just for Sissy’s……
Yesterday, I headed out on a mission to buy gift items (Fathers Day, Christmas, Birthdays, Baby Showers, etc) and thought I’d share my shopping experience with some of you:
I spent $89.69 and saved $93.20 (51%)
SHOWN: 2 Gillette Fusion Sets, 3 Hershey Syrups, $25 Gift Card, 2 Cards, 2 Pampers Wipes, 8 Skinny Cow Ice Cream, 2 Jell-O pkgs, 2 Armor All Car Wash, 2 Armor All Tire Foam, 2 Armor All, 2 STP Oil Treatment, 2 STP Fuel Injection Treatment
NOT SHOWN: Bucket and Chamois, 1 pair Men’s New Balance Tennis Shoes(reg. $60.00) and a 24 pack of water.
Some of the best deals of the day were:
Armor All and STP products at TARGET (Father’s Day and Birthday Gift buckets)
Armor All $2.49 - $2 coupon= $.49 ea.
Armor All Tire Foam- $3.79- $2 coupon = $1.79 ea.
