CVS Trip 4/14, saved 85%

Make sure you scan your card before you shop. Mine printed an extra 5EB and .25off M&Ms which I needed.
I thus started with 8.99 EB from last time, plus 5EB printed, plus $5 off $30 with email.  Sign up with CVS to receive some perks with Extra Care cards. You'll receive a $4 off $20 through Email just for signing up. 
Here is something to consider when you get all your "freebies": you still pay taxes on everything!
Yesterday, I had spent $13.00 on all that stuff...but was charged tax on full price, so $6.00. So if you think about it, it's almost 50% tax!  So when I see free toothpaste, I pass lately, because I have enough and I know that I'll end up paying .30cents or so on tax on my free toothpaste, which ultimately might end up in the trash or smeared across someones car (prank?).  However, for food, there is no or very little tax, so I don't pass on that.
So I spent $19 and earned $17EB for my next trip.

Walgreens, 4/7,

Here is less than $10, saved 84%

I'm not sure how much longer I'll do the Walgreen's deals, it's quite complicated because of their coupon policy.  You cannot have more coupons than you have items, but they count the RR as a coupon. So when you think you're paying with an RR, it's actually a coupon. That's why you have to get "fillers", like candies to count as an item.  I guess I still save a lot there, I haven't found the personel at my store over joyous with my couponning habits, I keep smiling and all, but I have my limits.  We'll see...I'm cheap and probably will keep torturing myself just to get a good deal!
Details:
Pures is on sale for $1.99 with add q, and there is a q in the Sunday adds, so .99 cents/each
Venus is $7.99, with a 4RR and a $2 q in the adds
Kotex was 2/7, with a 3RR and 2x $1/2 q printable
Tape was $1.5 with add, $1/1 q printable
Candies were my fillers, for 39cents/each.
Earned 3RR for next time
There is a killer deal for Almay: they have in-store q for $2.00 off that you can combine with $2.00 manu.  All Almay is 40% off.  My @@%^ store wouldn't take both qs, so I'll go somewhere else!!!!

This is where I look up for coupons: pinchingyourpennies

Basha's Fun

I got all this for $25, with $1.00 off my next order. (Savings around 75%). I've done better at Fry's, but not when you need produce too.  They're having great deals on produce alone, so if you don't do coupons, at least ad match with Walmart for their produce, or go there.

But here is the tip of the day : DO NOT BE AFFRAID!  When you do your coupons, you have to watch it closely.  I had tought the I'd get free milk with 3 boxes of cereal.  When I saw that it wasn't the deal, I gave it back to the cashier, having the girl dig for them in my bags.  Then I had to return some water because it was wrong also, and then realized he had charged me too much for something else. So it was a long check-out! With lots of people behind me!  The deal is that you need to be Scrooge and make sure you get your pennies worth, a few $ make a big difference, so get your money's worth!  Smile at people behind you, thank the cashier for his patience and help!

Fresh and Easy Coupon

Here are two coupons, remember you can use them at Fry's (in AZ)
$10 off when you spend $50 (for Fry's, it's after all discounts and coupons) here
Free bag when you spend $20 here

Entertainment Books, $15

The Entertainment books have tons of coupons.  A lot of them are for restaurants (BOGO), but they have 4 Fry's coupons for $10 off (one expired on 3/31, but you can print one online).  I even used their link to book my flight to Belgium this summer and got $25 off (not a whole lot considering the total price of the ticket, but better than nothing).  Check it out here

CVS Trip 4/4

I did okay, could've done better, but I was running low on toilet paper.  It's hard to find great deals on TP, that drives me nuts!  This was still cheaper than buying it at Sam's Club.

I started with $13.50 EB, $4.00 email Coupon and my Winter savings of $1.50 EB.  Make sure you scan your card at leat twice before you shop, you might get more coupons.  The winter savings started printing out on April 1st.  I don't spend tons there, so I don't get much back.

I did 3 transactions this time, I kinda messed up thinking one thing was part of the deal, but it wasn't.  Anyway, I'm still learning.
