Rainbow Double Coupon day deals-10/14 Trip #2

I went to Rainbow for the second time tonight...and am too lazy to post how my deals went, but I got all of the above, doing two separate transactions, for $5. Here is what I got:

2, 6-packs of Dannon yogurt
2 packages of bagel bites
4 boxes of rice crispie treats
4 boxes of nutri grain bars
2 boxes of special k bars
6 packages of cookies
1 thing of salt


That meant that today total, I only spent $13!

(Click on photos to enlarge them)

I got some AMAZING deals at Rainbow....but I'm still a newbie so my 2nd transaction for $6 could have been less, but hey, I'm not complaining. Here is what I got today for $8:

5 boxes of Special K granola bars
2 boxes of Cinnabon bars
4 boxes of cookies
1 box of cereal
1 pack of gum
1 shampoo
1 hair spray
4 boxes of crackers
1 gallon of milk
2 tubs of Promise butter

Happy shopping!

See what $9 can get you at Rainbow and Walgreens

Rainbow has some fantastic deals this week, and I got a really great deal because I had quite a few RRs from last week at Walgreens.

Here is what I got at Walgreens and Rainbow for a total of just $9!!!

7 boxes of cereal
8 jars of Ragu sauce (good to make lasagna)
2 cover girl foundations (which cost $12.99 EACH)
4 boxes of cheez-its
3 large boxes of pop tarts
2 boxes of Cinnabon bars

I saved over $80 today =) AND, the best part is, I haven't even done double coupon day at Rainbow on Wednesday.....I had to go today because my cereal coupons expired today. They were $2/2, which is a really hot coupon.


*Note: don't forget to print out the newly re-set Triaminc, Theraflu and Zantac coupons for Walgreens next week for some MAJOR money making deals! For example:

Deal #1
$14.97 wyb three Theraflus
-$6 when you use three printable coupons (can print two per computer)
-$6 when you use coupon in Healthy Savings Coupon Booklet
Pay $2.47 plus tax out of pocket and get a $8 register reward back!

Deal #2:

-$4.50 when you use three printable coupons (can print two per computer)
-$6 when you use coupon in Healthy Savings Coupon Booklet

Rainbow Double Coupon day deals-10/7

So I haven't really given Rainbow a fair chance yet...meaning I never thought of doing their double coupon days. Basically, you have to buy $25 worth of items and then you can double up to 5 coupons. Check out what I got for $28 today in two separate transactions:

Two 7 lb roasting chickens (whole)-B1G1 (about $11 each)
Two mesquite pork loin roasts (2lbs each about $11 each)- B1G1
4 packs of Ronzoni pasta
2 wishbone dressings
6 Tony's pizzas
2 Buitoni fresh pastas
1 lite alfredo buitoni sauce
Coffee creamer
2 jars of skippy peanut butter
4 packs of floss

Not bad, but I'm hoping to learn how to make these deals even sweeter. Meat is always expensive, so I don't think this is too bad of a price =)

*Oh and the natural skippy p.b. printed out a $1 Cat...that I can use on next Wed. for double coupon days

Walgreens deals for 9/27

WAGS

Today I ended up spending $13 OOP (out of pocket) at Walgreens, which is WAY more than I normally spend, but I bought my niece three care bears (her new fav thing) which cost me $6.50....so take that into consideration.

I also made $11.50 in RRs today...so it's like I really only spent $2.00 OOP...I started with $10 in RRs and ended up with $21.50! Pretty good! Here is what I got:

3 care bear stuffed animals ($2.00-2.50 each)
3 fusion razors ($8.99 each) used $4.00 MQ, $6 RR (that is a $1 profit on each one!)
3 things of Emergen-C ($3.49, $3.49 RR)
3 bottles of Herbal Essences Shampoo ($2.99-$1.00 MQ, $2 RR each)
2 bottles of Robutissin To Go ($2.40, $2.49 RR each)
A big box of kleenex: $.50 (filler item)
3 bottles of Vaseline sheer lotion (new) ($6.99, $.150 MQ,$6.99 RR=) $1.50 PROFIT!)
3 packs of Dentek flossers ($2.00-$1.00 MQ, $2 RR=$1 PROFIT)
3 packs of sugar free halls cough drops ($1.00=$1 RR-only had one .75 MQ)
1 newspaper ($1) for a filler item, and more coupons! =)
2 Oral B toothbrusher ($3-$/75 MQ, $3 RR=.75 PROFIT)
2 chap stick fresh effects ($3=$3 RR)

I had to do 6 different transactions to roll my RR and make all of the money I did. All in all I saved almost $140!

I also plan on rolling my RRs ever more this week...but thought that 6 transactions was enough for one day ;)

money maker at Wags!

Hey everyone, I made $4 at Walgreens today, woot woot! Then, I plan on rolling that to get other items for free, and then hopefully make another $4....we'll see how many times I can do it before the stuff runs out!

Pay $6 (use $6 in RRs)

Then, I will buy this, to equal $5 (do this twice to get my $10 in RR back WITHOUT spending any money)

Use the $1/1 coupon from the 2/8SS

Walgreens profit

So, I've made about $7 at Walgreens this week, here is how:

Did you see this deal?

Carefree Ultra Protection Panti-liners $1.99=$1.99RR
Use the $1 coupon from here or from the 8/30SS
Final cost FREE + a $1 moneymaker!

Well, I started off with a $1 RR I had from a previous week. I bought the above product, used a $1 MQ and a $1 RR with a cheap filler item since I had two coupons and one item. I made $1 off of that transaction.

Then...I did this deal 4 times (since I had 8 coupons)

Buy 2 Glade Scented Oil Candle Holder or 2 oz Candle $2 each=$1RR
Deal Scenarios:

Buy two 2 oz Glade candles 2/$5
Use 2 FREE coupons from the 8/9SS
Pay nothing but tax
Get back a $1RR
Final cost FREE + a $1 moneymaker!

Then, I took that $1 I made and used it in the Carefree deal like I did above, thus making a $1 profit every time. I plan on doing that two more times, making a total profit of $10! Then, I can roll other deals from week to week.

Target Trip today

I think I had a pretty successful Target trip today. Here are some of the great deals I got:

Total OOP $2 for 2 packages (that is 8 breakfasts!)

Visine eye drops for the dog- the vet told me she had hair in her eye and this would help remove it : $3.64 (ugh, no coupon)

-2 packages of Jenny-O turkey brats: $4.39 (both had $1 off Target peelies)
-then I used a $5 MQ I got way back when the biggest loser was giving them out
-total OOP: $1.50 for 2 pkgs

Rainbow

Hey all you COKE lovers (that is me-I prefer coke over pepsi, although the frugal side of me will buy pepsi if it is less than coke) did you see that coke is only $1.77/12 pack at Rainbow? That is only .15/can!

Also, if you like lean cuisine, all of them are 50% off....pretty good if you ask me!

Oh and a 5 lb bag of potatoes is only .99! Also a great deal!

My trip to Wags for .22 =)

For .22 I got:

-2 cartons of coffee
-4 packs of chinet plates (good for when the in-laws visit. Less dishes for me = more time to spend with them)
-Organic dark chocolate bar (mom will love me)
-3 dove dish soaps
-3 things of floss
-7 pencils to donate for school supplies


This is one of the best trips I've had to Walgreens in awhile. Without the easy saver booklet, it hasn't been as easy to get good deals. My total was actually -$1.81, so I had to buy that candybar in order to leave the store. Pretty rough =) Check out my receipt if you don't believe me...all I paid was .22! I also walked out with a $1 RR...so I did make money ;)

I plan on going to Wags again to score 3 more free toothbrushes, another free floss and 2 more packs of Chinet plates, for a $1 money maker. Maybe I'll have to sacrifice and get another candybar or something :)

Rolling RR is working in MN

Hi everyone,

Remember this deal at Walgreens?

Buy 3 Reach floss products (or any combo of listerine/Reach)
Use 3, $2 coupons (that I printed previously from coupons.com)
Total OOP: $3
Get back a $3 RR, it's like getting all three for free.

Well, I have some good news. This deal rolled for me yesterday. This means I was able to use the $3 RR from my previous transaction a week or two ago to do the same Reach deal and get another $3 RR.

my deals for the week of 7/5

I will add more info later but all of the below cost me only $65 OOP...and that does not include the $10 I made at CVS today :)


My trip to Alids:Total OOP: $15


What I got:
-a block of cheddar cheese
-Celery-
-Baking potatoes
-Saltine crackers
-93% ground turkey
-blueberries
-strawberries
-cherries
-Cream of mushroom soup
-refried beans
-sour cream
-bread

***I know some of you shun Aldis, but for certain items, you can save up to 50%. Cheese is only $1.29 for the whole block. If you shred cheese on your own, you save over $1. And all of that fruit? I think this was a great shopping trip!


My trip tp Target: Total OOP: $40 (saved $41)


-6 boxes of Kashi granola bars
-4 boxes of Kashi cereal
-2 pizzas
-boca chix patties
-3 packages of village hearth buns
-2 packages of green beans
-can of corn
-hidden valley ranch
-laughing cow cheese
-boxed cheesy potatoes
-tomato sauce
-2 things of Pace cheesy salsa
-baked beans
-bisquick mix
-2 packages of veggies
-jiffy corn mix
-egg noodles

***The thing you need to do is stock up when things are on sale or at their lowest price. For example, the hamburger buns. They were on sale for $1.99...and are normally almost $4! That is a savings of 50%.

The Kashi granola bars deal went like this:
2 boxes of granola bars @ $2.50 each
-used 2, $1.50 coupons I printed from the internet
-used $1/2 Target coupon
Total: .50 for each box!

Market Pantry pizza:
$2.99
-use $1/off Target coupon

**This are strategies I used to cut my grocery bill cut in half, a 50% savings!

CVS Year-to-date spending vs. savings

For those of you who wonder how much "junk" I buy...I think this justifies what I do...according to my CVS receipt, for 2009 I've spent around $60 and have saved $416....I think that is pretty darn good! :) I bet it is double that at Walgreens because they really have no limits...maybe I should start tracking more closely :)

***On a side note: I wonder if this includes ECBs that I get back to spend like cash in the store? Who knows, it might even be more savings that they cannot catch :)

My deals for the week of 6/7

My total OOP for all 3 stores: $21.54

***Can I just say how much I saved? The soda alone would have been $13 and the cashews would have been $13....but I got everything from CVS, Walgreens and JC Penny for less than that!

What to do

Hi everyone,

Just thought I'd drop a little note about deals for this week. Honestly, I haven't posted anything for this week because I am unsure of how I want to continue with this blog. I am definitely going to be blogging about my deals that I get (and I DEFINITELY will be using coupons the same as I have before). The part I am questioning is about posting weekly deals for CVS, Target and Walgreens every week. If no one is even reading them, then why should I spend at a minimum, 4-5 hours every week putting them together? Sorry, I'm not trying to vent here or anything, but I just am unsure of how I want to proceed. I do think my posts would be beneficial if I could get a large enough following because I have definitely noticed differences in price and deals for the various stores here in Minnesota. I also think that I do find some deals that other blogs don't...so anyway, those are my thoughts. :)
