OMG, I finally reached my goal of saving more at the grocery store than I spent! Kroger has some great deals this week and I took advantage, spending $18 and saving $20!! I actually got Cheerios for $1/box with sales and coupons!!

I've done the same at CVS for 2 weeks in a row.
First week, they had Loreal Vive on sale, buy 1 get 1 total 4.99, I had $4.00 coupon off 2 bottles, so used 2 of those and then get $2.00 off a bottle, so basically got 6 bottles of shampoo for $6.00.

Second Week - From previous week I got a $7.00 off coupon off your order
Herbal Essances 2 for 4.00. I had 6 coupons for 1.00 off. Total I spent was 1.06

Not bad, at least I don't think!!!

I have really gotten into CVS and their sales/rewards. Taking advantage of their sales, my bill started out at about $20, but combine that with manufacture coupons and CVS extracare rewards. my bill came out to $0.32. And to make it even a little more sweeter, I will be getting $5.99 in extracare rewards to put towards another purchase.

I don't know if this is in all of the CVS stores, but with the new Crest Prohealth Toothpaste (which they are offering to give extracare rewards of $3 this week), there was a form next to it to fill out. Buy the Crest Prohealth Toothpaste, fill out form and get a coupon for a free tube of toothpaste. And if you happened to see the coupon in last sunday's paper ( I think), there was a coupon for a $1 off towards the Prohealth toothpaste. So, it would be like getting 2 tubes of toothpaste for free.

Congrats!!! This happened to me a couple of weeks ago and Bi-Lo had many things I needed on sale. Plus my coupons and I saved as much as I spent. I was so proud. I went bragging to my husband.
