So, I just have to brag. It's a short brag, but I wanted to. Not just because it was so fun (it was!) but because if I post it here fast enough, some of you may be able to go out and do the exact same thing and save a few bucks.
First, I went to Walgreens, where to Coppertone sunscreen is on sale for $10.99. Now that sounds pricey, I know, but they are also running a deal where you can get $10 back (in register rewards) if you buy $20 worth. to make the deal even sweeter, you can use 2 of these coupons: $5 off Dual Defense
Yes, it limits you to the dual defense type, but at SPF 70, and $1.76 (each, after tax) do we care?
THEN, I turned around and used the $10 back from the sunscreen to purchase PullUps, because we use them at night on the kids when potty training, and guess who is going to be 18 months? AACK! Anyhow, we'll use them. I used a coupon for $3 off (I would have used TWO, but was dumb and accidentally printed one coupon on top of the other, and there is a print limit!). If you are brighter than me, and don't mess up the printing, you can get an even better deal. Anyhow, I bought the Pullups for $10 each, one with the $3 off coupon (so $7), the other with the $10 cashback from the sunscreen. My out of pocket total? $8.40!! Oh, Huggies coupon, here.
Whew! Now, go do it, too!! But do it better, and your out of pocket will be $5.40.
Oh, wait, one more detail. I forgot. I also got $5 back in register rewards for the pull ups, so my out of pocket was $3.40, as I have $5 to spend there sometime (yes, I count it as $$), and if you do better than me (using TWO coupons), your out of pocket will be $0.40!!!!!
