Saturday Couponing Trip:-)

I found a couple of deals that I wanted to capitalize on before the sale ended tonight.  I needed to stock back up on deodorant and toothbrushes.  So, I started out at Kroger!  They had Colgate toothpaste and toothbrushes for $1 each:-)  My family who've seen my stockpile are probably wondering, why did you go buy more toothpaste when you already have 30 tubes?  Well, would you turn down something that was 100% FREE????  Of course not!  Plus, I donate the extra that I get!  So here's the Kroger breakdown:

4- tubes of Colgate toothpaste

4- Colgate toothbrushes

Total: $8

I used:

4- 50¢/1 Colgate toothpaste {doubled to $1 off}

4- 40¢/1 Colgate toothbrushes {doubled to 80¢ off}

Total Retail: $19.92

I paid: 80¢

I saved 96%

Then I went to Walgreens because I needed to stock up on deodorant for Steven and I.  Thanks to Rite Aid changing their coupon policy back last summer, you can no longer use a BOGO free coupon on a BOGO free sale:-(  So, Walgreens had them on sale this week 2 for $4.  Here's the breakdown:

4- Men's Speed Stick deodorant

4- Lady's Speed Stick deodorant

4- Starbucks energy drinks {On sale $1.49 each}

I used:

4- BOGO free coupons

4- FREE product coupons for Starbucks drinks

Total retail value (before sales): $31.88

I paid: $8

I saved 75%

My total for the day:

Total Retail: $51.80

I paid: $8.80

Total Savings: 83%
