(Rob’s) Adventures in couponing.
Posted by Michelle on September 5th, 2010 . Filed under: Uncategorized .– which means I’ve got another coupon post for y’all.
All this stuff right here – most of it was free.
By the numbers:
(16) bottles of Ken’s dressing
(14) Right Guard deodorants
(6) Kid’s Cuisine TV dinners
(6) packages of Ball Park franks
(4) 30-count packs of Guerrero corn tortillas
(4) 48 oz. bottles of Wesson canola oil
(3) big bags of Doritos
(3) bags of Quakes
(2) Tucks pads (hey – they were free – LOL!)
Actual retail price: $206.82.
Rob paid $20.96.
That’s a 90% savings!
Not bad for a rookie, eh?!
And here’s the fun stuff: the Ball Park franks were on sale for $1.99 each and I had $2 off coupons making them free. The Doritos were free when you bought 2 packs of the hot dogs – LOL So 6 packs of Ball Park franks and 3 bags of Doritos = FREE. The Right Guards were all free as they were on sale for $1 and I had $1.50 and $2 off coupons. So yeah – 14 deodorants…free. The tortillas and the Quakes were on sale for $1 and I had $1 off coupons; yup, more free. The Tucks pads – still laughing that we have these – were $2.74 and I had $3 off coupons….they paid us 26-cents to take those. And the Ken’s dressings. $3.99 regular price? Really? Crazy. They were on sale for $1.25 and I had $1 off coupons, so those were all 25-cents each.
So there ya’ have it. All that on the free/cheap – and no doublers required! That means any of you girls can do this!
Have a great day!

I need to learn how to coupon! I need classes or something!
For the Tuck's pads, they are GREAT after you have a baby and are sore, you know… Anyhow, if you have any baby showers coming up or are visiting people who just had babies, that would be a gift you could give. Granted, it's not the CUTEST gift but it's darn useful!

Hey, even if he's not totally convinced yet, he's helping you build a healthy stash anyway 😉
Free doritos! That is a happy day indeed!
