RANDOM THINGS I PICKED UP OUT-OF-TOWN

Even though I was out-of-town for the weekend camping, couponing was still on my mind!

I ran into CVS to get the Gillette Proglide Styler that I ended up paying $4.87 for and getting $4 ECB's. This thing is really cool with 4 attachments to it. It normally sells for $19.99 so I thought I got a good deal and it was something I could really use!

My RR's were getting ready to expire Monday and I didn't even realize it! Those darn suckers don't have a very long expiration date. Don't dare try to use them past expiration date because they won't take them. And then you want to cry...really!

I had five $2 ECB's and I was able to roll them by doing the following transaction five times.

Buy 2 Suave Naturals Shampoo, 15 oz. $1 each

Total due $2.12 including tax
Use $2 RR
Get Back $2 RR

...so for $1.20 in tax I was able to get 10 bottles of shampoo for my husband and got back five more $2 RR's to roll into the coming weeks!

By the way, if you run into Wags to get the shampoo, pick up a dozen eggs for $.99 using the in-ad coupon. That also makes a great filler item if you need it for your scenerios.

I also had to get a few things for camping so I ran into Publix. I wasn't going to let that opportunity go by either. Now that they raised the amount to $50 to get a gas card, I knew I wasn't going to be getting five of them. I was going to have a HARD time just to get two. Last week I ran into Target and a lady was sampling Juicy Juice and had $1 coupons sitting there. I grabbed a few and then she gave me more (turned out to be 10 of them) and was able to get Juicy Juice which was BOGO at Publix for $.50 a 8-pk using two of those coupons and the $1/2 Target coupon. I was thrilled. I added some other things I needed to get my total up to $50 just to get one stinkin' gas card. I'll probably be able to just get one more gas card.

This week looks like it will be the week to stock up on Dial Body Wash. They are BOGO at Publix for $3.91. Use the $2/2 coupon from this weeks RP (or printable or peelies) and stack with the $1/1 Target coupon and get them for FREE!
