Today's Deals

Today, I just took pictures of most everything together :)

I started off my evening after work by going to CVS. I got my $3 off $10 of cosmetics coupon from the magic coupon machine :) Which I promptly used to get my Natureluxe Gloss Balm that I have been wanting :) It wasn't on sale (even though I thought it was - this is why you should read your sales carefully and not get too excited). So, I got

• 2 Natureluxe Gloss Balms (love this stuff! Thank you Bzz Agent!) - used the $3 off from CVS along with a $3 off andy 2 Natureluxe products coupon I got in the mail.
• Carefree Pantiliners, on sale $0.99 - Used $1 coupon from the Sunday paper = Free
• 2 Gallons of TG Lee Milk, $3.19 - Got $2 in ECBs = $2.19 per gallon

So, I know it could have been better, but at least I had enough ECBs to pay the difference and paid nothing out of pocket and I got my lip schmuck I've been waiting to get.

Then I headed over to Target. I hadn't planned on going there at all, but my husband had a prescription to pick up. Man did I luck out!

• 4 Nivea Energy Body Washes, on sale $2.43 - Used four $3 off Nivea Men's Body Wash coupons from the newspaper = $2.28 Overage
• 1 Nivea Platinum Protect Men's Body Wash, on sale $3.19 - Used $3 off Nivea Body Wash coupon from the newspaper = $0.19
• Scotch scissors, price cut $1.49 - Used $1 off Scotch Scissors printable coupon = $0.49
• Mio Liquid Drink Enhancer, $3.49 each- Used two $1 off printable coupon and two $1 off Target coupon = $1.49 each
• 2 Packs Wrigley's 5 Gum, $1.39 each - Used $1 off 2 printable coupon and $1 off 2 Target coupon = $0.39 each
• 2 Magnum Ice Cream Bars, price cut $3.29 each - Used two $1 off printable coupons and two $1 off Target coupons = $1.29 each

So, as you can see, I didn't go hard core couponing today. I used lots of coupons, but by no means did I only get things that were free. The Mio coupons were going to expire on 5/10 and I really wanted to try it. The Magnum bars were one that my husband had seen a commercial and said, "wow, get some of those, they look good," and I wanted to cheer him up with the surprise, so I went ahead and got them. See, I'm not totally consumed by coupons :) I just like to get as much for free as I can, but I am not going to deny myself a want or need because I don't have a coupon for it :)
