CVS $5 off $30

Go to http://www.cvs.com/ and click on medicare in the left column. Take the medicare quiz and then print off your coupon. You can print as many as you want. Take the quiz again a few days later and it will print out an expiration date a few days later. Carry these with you so you will always be prepared when you go shopping!

I have to always hit the print button twice because nothing prints the first time.

WALGREENS FREE ELECTRASOL/FINISH NEXT WEEK

It looks like it is time to stock up on dishwashing detergent again! Next week Walgreens will have the Electrasol/Finish tabs on sale for $3.50, and it will produce a $1.00 Register Reward. There is supposed to be a $2.50 manufacturer's coupon in this Sundays paper, so it will end up being FREE.

Electrasol/Finish Dishwasher Tabs 3.49
2.50 coupon from 1/3/2010 insert
1.00 Register Reward
Final Price = FREE after coupon and RR

THIS IS WHY YOU SAVE YOUR INSERTS!

Some people may wonder why you save your inserts. If you had this insert from a few months back, you could have gone to Walgreens all month long and "bought" this Bayer Contour Moniter for FREE! I don't use these but the best part was just for going in and "buying" it, I received a $5 Register Reward. I had 3 coupons so I scored $15 in RR to start off my new year. I will roll those over into new deals in the next week! Not bad for $0 OOP!!!

PAID $22.85 - TOTAL BEFORE COUPONS WAS $58.22

I needed to get a few items today before my coupons expired. The breakfast sausage normally $3.79 was one of the deals. I paid $.89 each so I stocked up and bought 6! The Chex Mix was FREE + OVERAGE. I would have bought more but I am only printing off two computers instead of my usual 5! The Juicy Juice is for the grandkids. I already have 6 that I paid $1.00 each so I added to that stock. Yesterday at Target I bought a 64 oz. Motts Apple Juice for $.79. My daughter loves it!

We are having family over for an oyster roast tomorrow. I already bought the ham on sale so I only had to buy hash browns for the potato casserole (got my sour cream FREE weeks ago and cheddar cheese real cheap), rolls, and scallions for my Bacon Cheddar Dip. I already have the FREE cream cheese I got weeks ago and FREE crackers in my stockpile. I am making a dessert from my other cream cheese and items in my pantry and I am DONE!

WINN DIXIE DEAL!

Head over to Winn Dixie to get the following deal...

*Box of Winn Dixie garlic bread sticks
*Box of Farm Rich mozzarella sticks
*2 Liter coke product

You have to use your customer reward card to get this deal, but you can sign up for free in the store when you're checking out. I have also heard that if you make any purchase on New Years Day you will get a $5 off $50 coupon. Everyone who knows me knows I won't be using that at Winn Dixie!!

Have you ever wondered when is the best time to buy certain products? If you want to get a great deal, you have to know when it’s on sale! Retailers actually promote products and offer the lowest prices of the year during certain months – which means big savings for consumers!
