So, I've recently become interested in the whole coupons/saving money thing. I know that we spend entirely too much money each month at the grocery store, so I spent a few hours the other day reading several peoples blogs who share how they save money.
I decided to give it a try!
I began with Rite Aid. I don't think I've ever shopped here, and to be honest, I didn't realize we had one in Chapin, but several people mentioned the great deals they have. I began by checking out their website. Here I looked at their weekly sales ad and made a list of things I use that were on sale. I then found a way to get coupons from them just by watching short video clips on various products.
Here are the items I bought today.
Pampers Cruisers - $11.99
Coppertone Spray Sunscreen - $9.99
Renu Contact Solution - $7.29
Rite Aid Ibuprofen x 2 - $14.98
Total w/ tax- $47.35
Total I paid with sales prices & coupons - $10.44
Rite Aid is currently offering rebates on the Renu contact solution ($7.29) and the Pampers (2.99). In 2-3 weeks I will receive a check from Rite Aid in the amount of $10.28, meaning I will have paid out of pocket only $0.16!
Can you believe it? All of that stuff for only $0.16!!!
My next savings weren't as great, but still good. This time I went to CVS.
Pampers - $17.99
Folgers Coffee - $4.89
CVS 10 pack of batteries x 2 packs - $12.98
Notebook - $3.69
Total w/tax - $42.32
Total I paid with sales prices and coupons - $14.54
Like I said, not as great as my savings at Rite Aid, but still a savings of $27.78!
This saving money thing is great - & kind of fun! It's amazing the coupons you can find online:)
Now, on to more interesting things, or a more interesting person! Below are pictures of Becca from this past weekend!
