I perused the CVS circular yesterday and found several items that I didn't really need at this moment, but would eventually have use for. The best part was that each item also had a coupon in the Sunday paper that I could use, too. Finally, if I spent at least $20 on these certain products, I'd get a free six pack of Charmin toilet paper, which was a $5 value! (Now those of you who know me best, know that I only get Scott toilet paper....green for the downstairs bathroom and pink for upstairs one....I decided I could suck it up for once and use the white boring stuff...LOL!!)
Here's my bargains:
Head and Shoulders shampooRegular price $7.39
Sale price $5.77
With coupon $4.77
8 pack Bounty paper towelsRegular price $ 7.99
Sale price $5.88

CVS brand Honey Lemon cough dropsRegular Price $1.29
Sale Price FREE (with CVS receipt from Saturday)
Regular Price $52.74
Sale Price $29.58 (with manufacturer's coupons/free items)
Final Price $21.18 (with $10 off $30 order)
(Good thing I got that little extra below, or I wouldn't have been over $30!)
Reward for doing such a good job.

omg mom, you're bargain shopping. i don't know what to do. i might have a break down. what's gotten into you? and WHITE toilet paper? that's just unacceptable. i'm not sure i can talk to you when you're hysterical like this.
oh, and HAHA at the snow outside. so happy at least we were spared that.
It's all Jamie's fault.
The snow?
ya in the back of the pics through the windows? ya see it? at least i think i see it?
Michele, I have to ask you something. I see you use Tide laundry detergent, do you think it is worth what it costs? The lady I care for complained because her daughter uses anything that is cheap. So, she gave me money to get her Tide and Downey.
I do see the difference in using Downey because she doesn't put her tops and jeans in the dryer and they are really soft after they are dried, not stiff like cheap fabric softener. She makes me use 2 capfuls of the ultra because it still doesn't smell like the old Downey. When I take them out of the dryer I don't even smell the Downey like I used too, too. Do you use Downey too? Have you noticed if they changed their smell of the (ultra) fabric softener? I bought the ultra because it gave you less but it gives you more softener for the loads.
After this week I won't be caring for anymore because she is going to Country Meadows. I'm a little sad, but very happy for her. Because she is not in a good living situation in her own home. So, if you know anyone that could use my assistance in caring for them in there home and doing errands and light cleaning give them my name. Thanks!
congraulations! jamis is rubbing off on you!
anonymous?
lol michele...doesn't it feel good to look at the receipt after? john did some bargain shopping at CVS for me today =) hehe, maxi pads and deodorant, what a man!
i do believe anonymous is nani...she never puts her name...i mean she has on occasion, but she never puts the same thing twice.
Sue, I don't have feelings one way or the other for Tide, I just got it this time because it was on sale at CVS and I had a coupon for it. I don't really have a set detergent I use, in fact, I think right now I have three different brands sitting on my washer. And I alternate between Snuggle and Downy...pretty much pick it based on whether I like the smell or not!
Michele, you ROCK the coupons!
By the way, Tide IS the best... :-)
I"m impressed, I knew CVS gave coupons out with receipts, but I had no idea you could save that much!!(Sidenote: Holy cow! Ten comments! LOL, you must have found an interesting topic to your readers)
Also, I can't resist commenting: you don't have feelings for Tide? Really? Do you have feelings for other detergents? Does your husband know?
Also also, is there a reason for the color difference in toilet papers that reside on different floors? Why do you segregate them? I'm intrigued (but may not have spelled that right).
LOLOLOLOLOL! steph, you have me cracking up! thanks!
Steph, you are too funny!!
First of all readers....this CVS thing was a fluke....don't plan on me ever being so lucky again to have this happen again!
No, I'm pretty superficial with my detergents! I don't have strong feelings either way for most of my cleaning products!
And as far as the TP goes, green goes with my color scheme downstairs and pink upstairs....
Oh, and BTW, I can only get my pink and green toilet paper at Wegman's and Redner's!
