Reader Trips - My 2nd Publix Trip today

I told you in my Reader Trip this afternoon that I felt like I was overcharged on my creamers - $3.27 EACH!!!! I was expecting them to be $2.00 each. Turns out those creamers - and the plain boring ones, not the vanilla I need to survive - we NOT the ones on sale.


I returned the 4 and got it on a gift card for $13.08


Then went and did 2 identical transactions:
8 - Scott Bathroom Tissue, 4 roll, $2.50
4- $1/2 Publix coupon - 10/23 inserts
8- $1 Manu - 10/23 inserts
Total - $1 a pack


3 - Nestle Coffee-Mate Creamer, 16 oz, 3/$5
3-$.55 blinkies from last week
Total - $1.12 each


I used a $5/$25 Save-a-lot for each transaction and paid $.22 more than the gift card!
CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!


Four 32 ounce creamers or 16 packs of TP and 6 creamers? I am proud to say I will not need to buy TP for 6-8 months. Which gives me enough leeway to really watch the deals and try to only buy it when it is close to free!

Reader Trips - My CVS trip - 10/18/11

I was out and had a mini-helper today so I took advantage of my time and swung by CVS to roll my ECBs.. there was really nothing that I needed, but I didnt want them to go to waste. When you "roll" an ECB (or a RR at Walgreens) you are essentially extending the expiration date while getting items for free. Well this wasn't a FREE trip, but I got some things I could use and other things that I plan to resale in my garage sale in a few weeks.

And for the record, I do my fair share of donating, so don't harp on me making a little money on my time and effort.

I dont know how many ECBs I had from 2 weeks ago, but I used a bunch adn I am also on the CVS advisory panel and once a month they send me a survey and give me a $10 ECB to print from home!

I am not one of THOSE people who feel the need to use every coupon that crosses my path, but I do know when something is on a STOCKPILE priced sale and IF I have coupons, I need to use everyone of them.
