Bargain Shopper High

I've always been a bargain shopper. I get it from my mom. Until the past couple of weeks, I've been really good at shopping for clothes, shoes, house stuff, and the other typical things you find on sales and clearance racks. BUT, now I've entered the world of couponing and "CVSing" (yes, that's a word!). Not to mention the deals to be had at Walgreens, Walmart, and Target. It's sad just how excited I am about my recent "deals." Mark's excited too...don't let him tell you any different!



Last week's CVS trip: Fiber One cereal, Fiber One granola bars, Nature Valley granola bars (hidden), Aveeno shave gel, 2 tubes of Colgate Total, 2 Arm & Hammer laundry detergent.

Total OOP (out of pocket): $13.06 (inc. tax)
ECBs for next time: $7

(for those unfamiliar with the wonderful world of CVS, ECBs are "Extra Care Bucks" that are given for purchasing certain products and can be used like cash on future CVS purchases.)

This week's Walgreens trip: 2 boxes Lucky Charms, 1 box Cinnamon Toast Crunch, 8 bars of Dove soap, 1 tube of Colgate, 1 tub (ha!) of Axe hair goo.

Total OOP: $14.09 - $6.99 online rebate (net cost: $7.08)
This week's CVS trip (#1): Pantene conditioner, shampoo, hairspray, 1 Dry Idea deodorant, 2 Sure deodorants, 1 Irish Spring body wash, 1 tube Colgate.

Total OOP: $3.21
ECBs: $7
Here'sa bonus picture of us on our trip to Cancun the end of February. We had a blast, but I've never been so ready to get back home!


More updates to come...seriously.
