Adventures in Couponing.
Posted by Michelle on July 1st, 2012 . Filed under: Couponing .July 1st is here! Which means we’ll have a holiday right in the middle of the week. Ick. Ah well, I guess any paid day off work is a good one, right? So this week I’ve got some great Albertsons and Walgreens scores to share with you, so let’s roll.
Oscar Mayer lunch meat was on sale for $1. Buy 5 and get $4 back = 20-cents each. So I ordered 50 of them after buying 25 in the store. These are perfect filling & cheap snackies for the kids. The mustard was free with a coupon from an in-store coupon book. And then the Country Time was on sale at Fred Meyer for $2 and I had $2 coupons = free, plus they were handing out free samples of shampoo & conditioner.
Red Baron pizza was on sale BOGO and I had coupons that I doubled which made these $1.38 each. And the milk was 69-cents after coupon and doubler! The Oreos were $1.39 after coupons and doubler; I never buy these because they are so spendy – I can afford this price though 🙂
17-cent Suave body washes, free Starbucks drinks, free hummus, free freezer bags, and $1.50 for the Lloyd’s taking advantage of a BOGO + coupons + doubler.
24 bottles of free dressing.
They were on sale for $1.99 each, BOGO = $1.99 for 2, then double $1-off-2 which = $0.
Albertsons has this big summer promotion going – lots of cash and prizes to be won. They put out this coupon book that you can only use there, and one of the coupons was for $1 off any store-brand item costing $1 or more. So each of these items I paid 19-cents for. (The peas were free.)
All this was free at Walgreens.
I made $2 on each of the Omega Smart things and everything else was free by taking advantage of Register Rewards buying this, get a RR back, use that to pay for this and so on and so on and so on.
These were my filler items – have to have more items than you have coupons (Register Rewards) – so I head to the clearance shelves and get the cheapest thing I can find to throw in. The backscratchers were 14-cents. No ideas on what the heck I’mma do with them. The roach killer was 25-cents, black bean packages were 49-cents, and Glee stuff was 15-cents. But again, I didn’t really pay for this stuff. I started with $22 in Register Rewards at Walgreens and left with $24. So all this was free +.
